DALLAS, May 18, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Tens of
thousands of independent sales force members have been added to
Agel Enterprises over the past several weeks as a result of
the return to Agel of Glen Jensen,
who founded the company a decade ago, JRJR Networks founder
and vice chairman John Rochon said
today.
Agel, a global seller of nutritional products in gel form and
skin care, is part of JRjr33 Inc., doing business as JRJR Networks
[NYSE MKT: JRJR].
"We're seeing a powerful surge happening here, what we expect to
be the start of a new era for Agel," said Mr. Rochon. "We
partnered with Glen Jensen in the
beginning of May. Since then, he has brought about 28,000
people to Agel. We're excited at the prospect of what will
happen next."
The people who have come to Agel in the past few weeks are from
Innovative Global Inc., a direct seller of skin care and
nutritional products which Jensen helped found and serves as CEO,
operating primarily in Asia. "We have agreed in principle
that Innovative Global will adopt selling the Agel products and
work under the Agel compensation plan, using the Agel web site,"
said Mr. Rochon. He said that this week, top Innovative
Global sales force leaders, several of whom formerly worked at
Agel, enthusiastically endorsed the two companies'
alliance.
"Now that Glen is back, we expect the pace of people returning
to Agel to continue over the remainder of this year," added Mr.
Rochon. "We anticipate that there are thousands of
independent sales people in the U.S., Latin America, Asia and Africa who will want to re-unite or join with
Glen and with Agel. As a result, we believe Agel has opened a new
door for expansion and increased momentum worldwide."
"With such a surge of fresh interest in Agel in the short time
since Glen rejoined the company, we believe that a platform for
growth is being built. We believe this is very significant
for Agel," said Mr. Rochon.
