Evolv’s top 10 referrers (9/29/09)
September 29, 2009 | 10:56 am
Last week, we shared the names of the top 10 referrers of new members to the Evolv family. A week later, there’s lots to report as four new members claim a spot in the Top 10 Club!
Dwayne Palmer rocketed onto the Top 10 for the first time, coming in at number 5. He’ll have a ways to go to catch up to the strong and tireless work of Paul, Marilyn and John Solamito, though. Are you up for it, Dwayne!?
Chandler Delinks continued to do very well, moving up a spot to number 4.
Also making an appearance in the Top 10 for the first time are Michael Rayel, Matthew Rayel, and Kim Gregory. All three did extraordinary work in the past week to appear on our Top 10.
What does the Top 10 look like for this week? Here it is:
- Paul Solamito
- Marilyn Solamito
- John Solamito
- Chandler Delinks
- Dwayne Palmer
- Global Source, Inc.
- Michael Rayel
- Louis Aznavoorian

Congrats to all of our Top 10 Club members. You have our sincere gratitude and appreciation, as do all of our community members, for spreading the wording about Evolv.
Will your name be on the list next week?

3 new Evolv programs
September 22, 2009 | 6:59 pm
To give you an idea of the kinds of things we’ll be doing after we officially debut Evolv, here are three new programs to tell you about:
1. Our Facebook “First on the Block Contest.”
Between now and the end of September, visit our Facebook fan page to enter our “First on the Block Contest.” We’ll draw 10 lucky winners who’ll win two cases of Evolv: One for themselves and one for a friend, all before the product is officially released. We’ll pick up the cost of sending the cases. No purchase is necessary. Enter here.
2. Our Top 100 Club.
Be one of the top 100 people who brings aboard other members by the time we launch Evolv and we’ll send you a free case of Evolv.
3. Our Top 10 Club.
So just who are the top referrers of new members? That’s what our Top 10 Club is all about. Each week, we’ll publicly recognize the top 10 people who’ve referred the most members to our pre-enrollment system. Chart position is based on cumulative referrals. Getting listed in the Top 10 Club is for bragging rights. We’ll update the current Top 10 Club members here each week.
And now, in our best Casey Kasem voice: Here are the Top 10 referrers for this week:
- Paul Solamito
- Marilyn Solamito
- John Solamito
- Global Source, Inc.
- Chandler Delinks
- Louis Aznavoorian
- Kim Gregory
- Diane Grunseich
- Paul Erikson
- Trina Babcock
Great job, everyone. Keep up the good work on bringing other people into the Evolv family!
MyEvolv.biz sites changing to MyEvolv.com
September 22, 2009 | 12:56 pm
Good news! Your “.biz” personalized web address will change automatically to “myevolv.com” when you sign up to become an Evolv Member.
Don’t worry, any advertising you are doing with “.biz” will still work via a redirect to your new “.com” address, and any future marketing can be done using either.

Why we combine the Archaea Active formula with pure water
September 16, 2009 | 11:15 am
Most everyone we encounter loves that Evolv is a water product. Everyone drinks water, everyone needs water. So simple.
The inventors of the Archaea Active(tm) formula decided water would serve as the best and most natural method to introduce Evolv to the human system. They believed that anything that needed to be done to “prepare” the product meant fewer people would be using it on a regular basis. A new potion to drink or a new powder to mix, in their estimation, would interfere with a person developing a lasting positive dietary habit. Their goal was to create a product every living being on the planet could benefit from and take as a part of their daily lives without changing habits.
But make no mistake, the Archaea Active formula is the primary reason to drink Evolv. You’ll see.

Evolv is all about authenticity and trust. It permeates everything we do. Trust and honesty allow us, and you, to build this great business.
Be honest.
We have received many email questions about what is allowable and not allowable in marketing materials, claims, statements, and web sites. Our answer (prior to publishing the policy manual) is “don’t do anything dishonest or make incorrect claims.” It is essential that all our Members, employees and partner companies be honest at all times.
Be cognizant of our trademarks.

Explaining Evolv’s M.D. Anderson connection
September 9, 2009 | 1:43 pm
Many Evolvers are interested in the Evolv product’s history and connection with The University of Texas M.D. Anderson Cancer Center. And for good reason- M.D. Anderson is a world-renowned medical institution in the field of cancer treatment and research. In 2009, U.S. News & World Report’s “America’s Best Hospitals” survey ranked M. D. Anderson as the top hospital in the nation for cancer care. M.D. Anderson has achieved the top ranking six times in the past eight years and has ranked as one of the top two hospitals for cancer care for 20 years, since the magazine began its annual survey in 1990.
With the launching of Evolv and the advent of so many Members who will soon become associated with the sale of the product, it is important that all Evolvers understand the association between EvolvHealth LLC, Health2o Products, LLC and M. D. Anderson.
Early in the life of what is now the Evolv product, Health2o Products, LLC (our manufacturing company) chose M.D. Anderson’s analytics analytical laboratory to conduct analytical tests due to its position as the best testing center in the nation to identify and quantify the active molecules in the water and the biobase starting material.
Of course, this testing is done completely independently. M. D. Anderson provides sophisticated testing and analysis of materials sent to their analytical laboratory and provides test results to HealtH2O Products, LLC and has no association, ownership or financial interest in or with HealtH2O Products, LLC or EvolvHealth LLC.
MD Anderson and its employees do not endorse Evolv as they are precluded from endorsing any product using the MD Anderson name. Our test results are just that, and are not an endorsement or backing of M.D. Anderson.
The Evolv management feels extremely blessed and fortunate that an institution the caliber of M.D. Anderson has tested our product.
Evolving to new heights
September 7, 2009 | 9:35 pm

At 17,600 feet, oxygen is one thing you miss with every breath in. We took the Evolv flag to the Pin Parvati Pass in Himachal Pradesh on 07.08.09 in a remote part of India’s Himalayan Mountains for a number of reasons.
First, it becomes abundantly clear how much oxygen is a life giving force. As you climb, the tree line gives away to minimal growth (less oxygen means less life). Go high enough and sustained life is not possible. Oxygen is something we take for granted. Yet, the more of it you can take in, the more fully you can live life.
I can’t think of a better way to celebrate the positive effects of Evolv than to hold our flag in rarified air of a desolate mountain top.
Second, knowing the product launch is just around the corner, we wanted to celebrate a new summit for health and wellness.
Third, we wanted to make our climb a metaphor for life. Nothing worthwhile seems to come easy. But one step after the other, makes anything possible. I am proud to be a part of the evolv team and the lives we will impact.
May the mountains you climb take you to new vistas and life energy!
Best wishes,
Vince Poscente
Athletes and oxygen
September 4, 2009 | 5:16 pm
Just handed over two of our last three Evolv sample cases of for Oklahoma State quarterback Zac Robinson and OU quarterback Sam Bradford for their games this weekend. As a loyal Texas Longhorn I feel like I’m sleeping with the enemy. (Anyone know Colt McCoy? I’ve got our last case ready for him!!)
In a previous life I consulted for a company that made a device that “acclimated” the body to high altitudes. The user would sit in a chair for an hour a day breathing from a mask that slowly reduced oxygen intake, thereby training the body to process oxygen more efficiently. They marketed this to athletes, cyclists and football players primarily. This is where I learned how much a little oxygen goes a LONG way in the world of competitive sports. Everyone is always looking for the performance edge.
Wouldn’t it be great if you could bottle that? Hmmm……
Athletes will love Evolv, and we feel that competitive athletics could be one of our biggest markets. They understand oxygen’s importance to enduring, recovering, and winning.
This will be demonstrated when several well-known college football players will be found drinking Evolv on the sidelines in stadiums this weekend. Stay tuned for follow ups on how it went.

Ready to help the world Evolv.
September 2, 2009 | 1:20 pm
Companies that share more also earn and learn more.
With that in mind, welcome to our blog. This is our home that will share the latest news, updates, stories, quirks, and sometimes fun or meaningless factoids about the life of a business. Our business happens to be about the nutraceutical beverage Evolv.
Our blog will share who we are and how we hope to change the world. We want to help people improve physically, financially, and maybe even spiritually.
When we formed EvolvHealth, we decided its purpose was simple: To improve the lives of people by creating science-driven health products. How we fulfill that purpose is guided by our values:
- Be innovative—we create world-changing products using our social distributing model
- Be earnest—we rely on facts to drive our words and actions
- Be generous—we support our communities, locally and globally
- Be supportive—we help our distributors, vendors and team members fulfill their goals
As we work hard toward fulfilling our purpose, our blog will be the journal of our journey. The things we plan to discuss with you include:
- Member wins: How Members succeed and their elements of success.
- Company updates: New people, products, upgrades, facilities, and countries.
- Behind the scenes: How and why we do what we do.
- Tips: We love tips lists! We will have tip lists coming out of our ears and gills.
- What’s new on the site: We’re going full Web 2.0, so we’ll discuss and point toward other content that’s being created.
- Occasional video posts: From people who find it easier to talk than type.
I will be posting along with Trey, Brent, Anne and a future cast of dedicated, thoughtful, and hard working Evolvers. You can keep in touch with us pretty easily by subscribing to our RSS feed, or getting updates via email. Both tools of are found in the upper right-hand corner of this page.
Happy Evolving.
