Quixtar posted its first message since November on its Media Blog and it has discussed something we already know. Mainly that Quixtar and TEAM are in arbitration and nobody is talking about it and most likely never will because the terms of the arbitration will most likely be kept confidential. Instead of Quixtar just moving past this whole TEAM fiasco [...]

The news out of Quixtar has been pretty slim lately as I think the TEAM dispute has gone into arbitration, which will be a closed door process. We may never know how it turns out. But for now TEAM is operating as a leadership development organization that is, for the time being, not affiliated with any particular company. Although I [...]

Amway UK announced recently that it is being taken to trial by government authorities because of the way that ABO’s (Amway Business Owners) were promoting the business opportunity. In response to early criticism from the government, Amway UK instituted its own moratorium on signing up new distributors and did not renew the contracts of some very high level ABO’s who [...]

A Kent county judge ruled today that former IBO’s in the TEAM training organization did not violate an earlier restraining order issued by Quixtar.

It seems that Quixtar’s post a couple months ago named “Just Go, Team” didn’t accurately convey Quixtar’s feelings toward TEAM. Quixtar is now filing a lawsuit against TEAM’s parent company, Signature Management Team LLC, and seeking any and all damages possible. The lawsuit claims that TEAM is soliciting IBO’s, using confidential and proprietary company data, disparaging Quixtar,  and more. I [...]

Judge Paul Sullivan denied Quixtar’s motion today to halt a TEAM function being held in Louisville this weekend. Since the TEAM founders were terminated from Quixtar, they have been reportedly running as a neutral leadership training organization that does not endorse any one individual opportunity. However, Quixtar is claiming that the meeting will be used to encourage more IBO’s to [...]

Amway has terminated the businesses of another group of IBOs, this time across the Atlantic. The “Independent” businesses of Diamonds Jerry Scriven, Dave Butler and Pat Gregory, who operate the International Business Systems (IBS) group have all been terminated because of their lack of support for the changes being made with Amway UK’s business. These sounds very similar to the [...]

CBS News has begun covering the drama between Quixtar and the bloggers they are suing and there are some interesting things to take note of in the article posted on their website. The passage that stands out the most is: “Quixtar develops and manufactures nutrition, beauty and cleaning products that are marketed in the United States and Canada through a [...]

The local paper, The Grand Rapids Press, picked up the story about Quixtar suing 30 unknown individual bloggers and posters and added some more information about the case. For instance, Quixtar has now disclosed that the reason they chose to file the case in Ottawa County and not their home office location in Kent County is “so as not to [...]
