Hi there! Thanks for visiting our independent GNLD product and training website.
Our names are David and Heide Body. I’m a retired dentist, and Heide a retired office administrator. We’re ‘second-timers’, both having been married before. We learned from the mistakes we made in our first marriages, and are enjoying life together very much.
Between us we’ve got two married sons in Germany, a married daughter in England, and the youngest son in Australia is engaged.
Two lovely grandaughters, and three handsome grandsons complete the family line-up at the moment.
Heide and I love being outdoors. In the garden we feel in touch with our Maker, and delight in the marvels of all the life-forms around us. Travelling’s a passion, too. We’ve enjoyed several overseas trips together, and look forward to exploring many more corners of this great big wonderful world.
We’re blessed with not having a television, so in the evenings Heide reads biographies, classical, or historical books. And often reads online to keep up-to-date with German magazines like ‘Stern’ and ‘Focus’.
I’ve usually got my nose in a book or website about nutrition, or the latest trends in network marketing and social media. And I’m enjoying building this WordPress website into a place where members of our group can find the info and guidance they need to develop their own GNLD business.
For us, GNLD started when we were nearing our retirement age. We knew we wouldn’t want to just rust in peace at the seaside when we retired, watching the sun go from east to west. We were looking for something to keep our minds active…at the same time continuing to make a worthwhile contribution to society…and we’re very thankful our friends…Vic and Debbie Williams…introduced us to GNLD.
And another thought we had is we didn’t want to downsize, spending the rest of our lives dreaming up ways to tighten our belts…that wouldn’t be any fun at all! Unfortunately though, the figures in the pension brochures that looked really huge when we started them, didn’t seem so wonderful 40 years later! We knew we had to do something to increase our retirement income…if only to keep pace with the increasing costs of living.
Deciding to start our GNLD home business is one of the best decisions we’ve made…in fact, we wish we’d done it a lot sooner! We choose the hours we work…with whom we work…and when we go on holiday. We’re also working together, which gives us a really great sense of combined achievement.
We’re enjoying developing a valuable, worthwhile asset. And unlike my former dental practice or Heide’s job, our GNLD business is willable, so we can leave it to our children and grandchildren one day, and that’s a very satisfying thought, too.
If you’re needing another string to your bow…or are retired and looking for something worthwhile to supplement your pension…stay awhile and have a look around…your own GNLD home business could be just right for you.
I joined gnld in Zimbabwe 2013 en now I am in South Africa en I want to continue with the business.what must I do am I to join again or continue en where exactly in Johannesburg can I go to attend such meetings like bonus rallies
Hi Egrina.
I have asked a friend in Johannesburg to contact you to help you get going again.
Hi GNLD team,
I would like to purchase some of your products esp nutrishake powder drink. Could you have a center in Kigali – Rwanda? Or atleast in East Africa? Please email me. Thanks.
Hi Judith.
Please go to GNLD’s website: http://www.gnld.co.za
Scroll down to the foot of the page, and click “Worldwide Locations”.
A new page will open with the contact details of every Distributor Service Centre (DSC).
As you will see, Rwanda is not yet on the list, but Kenya, Tanzania, and Uganda in East Africa have DSC’s.
Good day
My mother is 76 years old. 2 months back the doctors discovered that she had a brain tumour. She had a gland that suppressed the nerve of an eye for almost 20 years according to the doctors. That gland got a stroke not her and that has affected her eyesite. She cannot see at all with one eye and the other one sees partially.
3 years back she had a stroke. She is taking a treatment of High Blood pressure and sugar diabetes.
Is there any product that can help my mother. She is really suffering
Hello John.
Very sorry to read about your mother.
May I ask, is she over-weight? Many people with high blood pressure and sugar diabetes are.
If she is, step one would be to reduce weight.
I’ve written about the foods that cause weight gain, and the resulting medical conditions, in this post: http://healthybusiness.co.za/blog/1658/pyramids-belly-fat-diabetes-cholesterol-blood-pressure-and-arthritis/
My favourite four GNLD products would help her general health, provided her medical doctor approves of them (though I cannot claim they would help her specific concerns):
Formula IV Plus
Nutrishake
Omega 3 Salmon Oil Plus
Carotenoid Complex
Because your mother is taking medication, it is essential you check with her doctor first, John. Please do not skip this essential step.
Hi,
I have a lot of questions, can someone call me back as I have less access to the internet during the day, to respond to emails
Hi there, Innes.
Thanks for visiting.
My wife and I are enjoying an extended trip overseas at the moment, visiting family.
Our cellphones are on roaming…only sms…so I’m unable to phone you for a chat. Sorry.
Email works fine, so if you do find the time to send a few lines, I’ll do my best to help you, Innes.
HI,AM DRAKE FROM UGANDA, EAST AFRICA.
I LIKE YOUR STORY
BUT I JUST WANTED TO KNOW HOW DO U MOVE A TEAM.
COZ I HAVE BUILT A TEAM BUT MOST THE PEOPLE ARE NOT PRODUCTIVE AND ITS REALLY BOTHERING ME.
THANX.
Jambo Drake.
I’m sure many other Distributors reading your question will be able to identify with it very well. I know I did. We’ve all had people start with enthusiasm, only to fizzle out later.
One reason for the inactivity is often a lack of confidence in one or more of the important business-building areas, such as prospecting, product sales, business presentation, training their new people.
Forgive me for being blunt: the best place to start looking for reasons is in the mirror, Drake.
These are some of the questions we all need to ask ourselves…
Is there a structured training programme for team members, especially new ones?
Are the meetings and the training fun, so people look forward to them, or are they like boring extra-curricular classes?
Are you showing your team members exactly what you are doing to build your business?
Is what you are doing able to be duplicated by others in your team, or do they need the special talents you may have? For example, if you’re the sort of person able to sell snow to Eskimos, expecting your team members to do the same will not work.
Do you monitor your individual team members’ activities, so you can identify any weak areas where extra help is needed?
The answers to questions like these are available on a website run by Tim Sales, who built an enormous MLM team. He doesn’t punt any particular company now: his training is generic, and will benefit any networker, regardless of the company he/she is in.
There’s a mine of free advice and information on his blog well worth checking out at: http://www.firstclassmlmtools.com/blog and I’m sure it will help you find ways to encourage and help your team members be as active as you are, Drake.
Looking forward to seeing you at the top,
David.

Hi Emmanuel.
Thanks for visiting.
A good way of finding out about GNLD in other countries is to go to the GNLD Africa website (www.gnld.co.za) and click on the country listings in the drop-down menu at the top right of the homepage.
Happy surfing!
After registering and bringing 4 people into the business, is that when i will be collecting money every month?
Hi Michael.
Thanks for visiting.
GNLD does not pay Distributors for bringing new people into the business.
If you do nothing, and your 4 newbies do nothing, all five of you will earn nothing.
When you join in South Africa, you get a business kit that includes two pots of Tre-en-en.
In theory, you could keep one for your own use and sell the other for the suggested retail price of R157, making money on your first day in your new business.
Your GNLD ID number also entitles you to buy more Tre-en-en…or any other GNLD product…at special Distributor discounted prices, and sell them at suggested retail prices. The difference is your profit, which you keep.
In GNLD…just like every other business…money is made only when product moves from the warehouse to consumers.
GNLD isn’t just about sales, though. There’s pv and bv to consider, which I’ve written about in this post: http://healthybusiness.co.za/blog/1377/the-meaning-and-purpose-of-pv-and-bv-in-gnld
Michael, please meet with your sponsor to help you make a plan for your business development.
And read, read, read. The more you know about how GNLD works, the more successful you’ll be.
Best wishes,
David.
my family using the gnld products and i want to learn more about the products.
Verona, the best people to ask about the benefits of GNLD products are the people using them…your family members. The theory you can get if you read the posts on this website, or go through the pages of the product catalogue, here.

Hi Victoria.
Thanks for visiting.
I’ve sent an email to GNLD in Italy, requesting help with you joining us in GNLD.
Please let me know when you are in, and we can help you get on the road to success.
Best wishes,
David & Heide.
Im Kenyan and a senior Mger in the business after under two months in the business. i believe to have one of the most successful business in this region.my greatest challenge though is getting people to join my team and i wonder, What is the secret behind and is it possible to own a website from this side of the continent?, please advise on this two issues.I hpe\’ to hear from you sir.many thanx. Paulsonic
Hi Paulsonic. You’re making fantastic progress…well done! There’s no secret to success…just keep on doing what you’ve been doing to get to Senior Manager, and train your new people to do what you’ve been doing. They, in turn, will show their new people, and so on. That’s how you develop a team.
GNLD websites like our’s at http://healthybusiness.gnld.net are only available in South Africa, but don’t let that stop you getting on the internet. There are many free blog platforms. I started with a free WordPress website (www.healthybusiness.wordpress.com) and am using WordPress to power this website. Sign up for a free WordPress website at http://www.wordpress.com and get started online…it’s good fun

Hi Thabo. Thanks for your enthusiastic comment. There are about 100 GNLD products available in South Africa…I’ve written about some of them on this site. You can read about the rest if you click ‘GNLD Products Guide’ in the list of pages at the top right of any page on this website.
For how the business works, I’ve written a brief description on our website and there’s more about how it works on GNLD’s Africa website.
Best wishes, David.
