ProArgi-9+ Published in 2016 Physicians’ Desk Reference

ProArgi-9+ has once again claimed its place in the Physicians’ Desk Reference (PDR). The 70th edition of the 2016 PDR contains approved drug and supplement label information in addition to hundreds of full-color product images, including a photo of ProArgi-9+. Each product description includes dosages, side effects, and more.

The PDR states that “ProArgi-9+ is the highest quality l-arginine supplement in the world,” and “ProArgi-9+ was formulated in collaboration with leading scientists and cardiovascular specialists who have conducted extensive research on the proper application of l-arginine in promoting heart health.”

Considering that the PDR is available in libraries, bookstores, pharmacies and clinics, and is a resource to physicians, medical specialists and more, ProArgi-9+’s placement in the PDR gives Synergy WorldWide valuable credibility and visibility in the marketplace. We encourage Team Members to use this as a valuable talking point as you invite others to discover ProArgi-9+ and benefit from its powerful ingredients in order to live a healthier life.

SLMsmart 90-day Challenge: Day One

SLMsmart 90-day Challenge: Day One

90day-logo-blog On the first day of the SLMsmart 90-day Challenge, we are already seeing our challengers’ dedication to transform their health. Challengers are supporting each other, documenting their workouts and meal prep, and expressing their excitement for the next three months. Synergy WorldWide is honored to be a part of this turning point in each of their lives.

Good news! It’s not too late to sign up. You can still get in on the action!

JOIN THE CHALLENGE

Challengers: Make sure to find and use the “SLMsmart 90 Day Challenge 2016” Facebook group to your advantage. SLMsmart Coach Tommy Bethards has already uploaded a number of videos containing helpful advice that will make you feel confident as you work toward your transformation goals.

As you dive into the SLMsmart App’s workouts and get ready to suit up for the gym, consider Tommy’s five tips to make your workouts more successful:

1. Head to the gym with a plan. Make the most use of your time at the gym by knowing your workout routine ahead of time. Review the SLMsmart app workout as part of your gym preparation.
2. Choose a workout that pushes your limits. The app includes beginner, intermediate and advanced routines. If you try the beginner routine and it doesn’t leave you panting, sweating, and waking up with sore muscles, you may be more in shape than you thought. Step up the difficulty level and try the intermediate routine.
3. Complete the full workout. Do not overexert yourself in the first 10 minutes of your workout and cause yourself to collapse in exhaustion. Make sure you can complete the full workout by adjusting your level of intensity.
4. Drink enough water. This precious liquid is the lifeblood of a successful workout. The more you sweat, the more water you’ll need, and if you aren’t sweating, you are most likely not pushing yourself hard enough.
5. Success is in the details. Don’t skip a single rep of any of the exercises. Do all of the burpees and all of the mountain climbers. You will also want to learn how to do all of the exercises correctly to get the most out of every movement. Also, keep the rest time between each set of repetitions to an absolute minimum to keep your heart pumping. By doing these things, you will burn fat and achieve the results you are looking for.

Congratulations to everyone who joined the 90-day Challenge! We love your enthusiasm and are excited to watch as you strive to become your best selves.

Perfect Your Social Media Presence

Perfect Your Social Media Presence

socialmedia Today, almost half of the world’s population has Internet access. In 2015, social media users exceeded 2 billion. This being said, there is an expansive audience out there ready to absorb the information you release into cyberspace. Feeling pretty powerful now, aren’t you? Not so fast. You first have to figure out how to make social media users see you and listen to you.

As Synergy Team Members, you have a compelling message to share. You want to share Synergy’s great opportunities every chance you get, so taking to social media is arguably the most cost efficient way to take your message to the masses. Whether you’re a Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, Reddit, Pinterest, Tumblr, LinkedIn, Instagram or Google+ user, there are tricks you should learn to get the best product possible out of your social media activity.

Here are a few general tips to help you maximize your social media accounts and drive your business.

Make a Schedule

While you don’t have to have every post scheduled to the hour, it’s good to have a general idea of what times are best for posting. For example, there probably isn’t a lot of traffic on social media on a Wednesday morning at 4:30 a.m., therefore, it’s not a good time to post.

As a standard, let’s use Facebook to measure good and bad social media practices because it’s the largest social media network by a landslide. According to the Huffington Post, the best time of day to post on Facebook is 1-3 p.m. with Thursday and Friday having the highest activity rate. Studies show that these times vary from one social media site to the next, so do your homework. It’s also best to avoid posting too often, which will cause your audience to hide your posts in order to avoid an overload of unwanted information on their feeds. Posting interesting content once per day will make sure your audience expects your posts and looks forward to them.

Post Meaningful Content

Generating intriguing content is crucial to an effective social media strategy. Ask yourself: Is this informative? Is this engaging? Is this relevant? You should answer “yes” to each of these questions. Your content should always be Synergy compliant. If you’re unsure about whether your social media content is compliant, please refer to Synergy’s “What Can I Say?” document.

Continuously review old posts to evaluate which of your posts are getting the most likes and comments. This will give you an idea of what content is drawing the most attention to your business. Some social media experts say to find the social media channel that is densely populated with your ideal customer and focus on making it succeed, rather than inconsistently dabbling in a myriad of channels.

Focus on Imagery

Have you ever noticed that people with an eye for good photography, who have also learned to take beautiful images themselves, receive a fair amount of traction in the social media world? Social media posts that include images or videos get 53% more likes and 104% more comments than posts without a visual centerpiece. Break up the monotony of your customer’s newsfeeds with an eye-catching image that relates to what you’re posting.

Now, before you go image hunting, put yourself in a photographer’s shoes. As you look at photos you’d like to post, consider how high the image resolution is and if the image is well lit. Even slightly dark or fuzzy photos will be passed over as if they didn’t exist. Interesting, aesthetically pleasing photos will give your posts the color and depth they need to be recognized.

Now, you have homework. There are thousands of studies and useful tips from social media experts out there that you can use to your advantage as you commit to become more business savvy on social media. Be sure to follow Synergy Worldwide on Facebook and Instagram for ready-to-share content and ideas.
