It's important for us as a business to offer that personal touch, the customer service, to answer the questions and offer support. It's a staple in our business model, it's how we stand out and is something we continue to work to improve.
Everyone chooses who they support. You can support convenience and cheap products with zero support. You can choose to sell products from a company from the other side of the globe. Or you could choose to support local however that looks for you.
Regardless we'll keep improving and doing a better job to offer more for each customer that votes for us.

On this edition of Exploring Mind and Body, I wanted to open up some of my own Random Thoughts to you.
In this show I talk about business, how it's difficult to find people to help. They want something very specific or they're not going to do it. There's only so much you can do for your business.
How banks are basically stealing from you and how they charge hidden fees, even when they advertise a zero-fee product.
Shady stuff was going on with Amazon Alexa devices, they were basically stealing bandwidth to sell it to other clients.
How social media is regulating what you can or can't say.
What oils need to have in their ingredients to put a name on the label.
How to find a good quality coconut oil - what is MCT oil and the different chains of MCT oil. Which one is better for you.
Food industry and supplements industry: Are they concerned about our health? Why we have to always read ingredients.
And these kinds of things just happen right in front of us.
Hope you enjoy!

The Benefits of Being Consistent are endless really. We could think about just about anything and connect being consistent with results. If you want to do well with exercise and nutrition, consistency is a must. If you want to do well in business you can’t exactly work once in awhile, or generate sales every couple weeks to be successful. When you look at meal planning or nutrition 98% of people that fall off their nutrition track, do so because they weren’t consistent with meal planning their week in advance. If you’re not dropping those inches or feeling better about yourself through exercise, there’s a very good chance it has everything to do with how consistent you are at getting your workouts in. Tune into this show to learn more about the Benefits of Being Consistent!
