Recommended by a friend, Nancy knew NU SKIN, and was deeply impressed by its quality products and excellent business and culture. She decided to full-time devote herself to NU SKIN business and start a new chapter of her life. Under the brilliant leadership of her mentor and actively participating in Company’s events of promoting 1+4, Nancy soon accomplished the assessment of Ruby Distributor successfully. Besides herself, Nancy hoped to help more excellent partners to succeed, therefore, she wanted to expand her business and team more rapidly with different business models and diversified products. Nancy discovered that there are a number of outstanding
NU SKIN products in overseas markets and they are not imported and available for sale in Hong Kong and Macau. Perhaps this could be a huge business opportunity. Nancy therefore convinced her foreign friends to run NU SKIN business together and imported overseas products from overseas markets to Hong Kong and Macau for resale via her foreign friends. When everything was ready, Nancy intended to have the exclusive sale as advertising gimmick to attract more people who are willing to develop NU SKIN business with her, without realizing that her behavior had violated Company’s policies and might also constitute a breach of laws.
