Jack: Morning Tracy! I heard that your cousin in the United States has also joined your downline team and become a NU SKIN Brand Affiliate (Distributor)!
Tracy: Yes, she is the first overseas Brand Affiliate (Distributor) I sponsored. I really look forward to working with her on the NU SKIN business. I find that Hong Kong consumers are very welcome towards foreign health and beauty products. Now through cooperate with my cousin, I will be able to attract more customers with the slogan of ‘Direct delivery US NU SKIN Products.’
Jack: Do you import US NU SKIN products through your cousin and resell them to customers in Hong Kong? No, No, No, this behavior completely against the NU SKIN Policies and Procedures and violates Hong Kong/Macao import and export relevant laws and regulations!
Tracy: How come? I remember that the NU SKIN Policies and Procedures allow Brand Affiliates (Distributors) to conduct international business in approved markets.
Jack: Hey! NU SKIN does allow Brand Affiliates (Distributors) to sponsor new Brand Affiliates (Distributors) in approved operating markets outside the market of origin in accordance with the International Sponsor Agreement but purchasing overseas products can only be used for personal use or for demonstration purposes. You cannot arbitrarily use the overseas products including brought them back to HK for resale.
Tracy: Wow, I don’t have any idea about this!
Tracy: It seems that I think things are too simple.
