The Ethos Challenge |

Team Takes New Direction After Extensive Company Review and Marketplace Analysis

Thursday February 26, 2009, 11:58 am EST SAN DIEGO, CA–(MARKET WIRE)–Feb 26, 2009 — The new management team of Ethos Environmental, Inc. (OTC BB:ETEV.OB – News), a San Diego-based company, announced today its corporate restructuring as it prepares for a company owned distribution model.
Corey P. Schlossmann, Chairman and CEO, said, “Since September, the new management team has been reviewing the company’s infrastructure, product efficacies, and distribution models to determine the optimum strategy for the company’s future growth.

“Ethos Environmental, Inc. will launch a new subsidiary, Ethos Scientific(TM), which is attracting a high proficiency of scientific research to improve upon the company’s product efficacies. Ethos Scientific(TM) will also handle the company’s research and development for bringing new carbon negative, environmentally friendly automotive products to the global marketplace.”

ecoMates(TM) will serve as our distribution arm focused on creating a dynamic marketing organization that offers ‘green’ technologies and products directly to the consumer.

“In today’s uncertain economic times, we believe peer-to-peer marketing offers the most efficient model for our product distribution. Plus, it rewards the consumers who recommend our product,” Schlossmann said.

Currently in the US market approximately 150 million cars on the nation’s highways are ten years old and older. Annually 43 million used cars are sold. Nearly 80% of the cars that are ten years old and older don’t meet state and federal environmental standards, and 100% of them won’t meet the newer, stricter requirements set forth by government agencies as environmental issues become a greater concern.

“With the average age of the automobile on the nation’s highways ten years old and older, products like EthosFR bring tremendous car-owner benefits as it reduces friction and engine wear. This provides more complete burn of the fuel delivering dramatically improved fuel economy. Now our mission is about increasing product distribution and shareholder value,” Schlossmann said.

On Tuesday, President Obama delivered his first address to a joint session of Congress to call for a new era of responsibility and a renewed commitment to investing in energy, health care, and education. As you watch this video and hear Obama’s call for personal responsibility along with an investment in green technologies, think to yourself – is there money to be made here?

There are 667,000 people today who are out of work, who can’t afford filling up their tank just to go looking for work. Are you one of them? Do you know anyone who is? Then consider this -

• Average annual income of an employee in the USA is $26,000. – Entrepreneur Magazine
• Average income of a successful home-based business in the USA is $50,250 a year – Entrepreneur Magazine
• 20% of home entrepreneurs reported that their businesses grossed between $100,000 and $500,000 last year.
• The TAX ADVANTAGES enjoyed by home-based business operators are nothing short of incredible. Deduct your vacations, medical expenses, entertainment, even your children’s college tuition and more!

DO YOU REALLY WANT ANOTHER JOB?

Positioning yourself in front of world trends nd huge expanding markets is what generates wealth.  You’ve just watched president Obama’s vision of energy independance, and the billions of  dollars  investment in it.  How can YOU profit from it to?

Position yourself today with the only proven green product out there that saves people money on a bill they have to pay anyway! Think about it – many people are looking for additional income, America is moving towards green living (more restrictions on emissions and Carbon cuts), gas prices are bound to go up and even at these “low” prices, people can’t afford to drive.

Network marketing has come a long way, and as Hugh B. Brown Jr., director of urban marketing for The Media Audit admits, it is “changing the way we sell and buy products and services”. I saw a cute YouTube video talking about the evolution of network marketing, that I just had to share:

And this is the direction of the new Ethos network marketing. The following tools will come in stages, and will be able to be offered as a stand alone offer to clients as well:

• Viral video emails – you’ll be able to record yourself and send a video message to new prospect as well as your downline. Those could be forwarded on to create viral marketing
• Video library – professionally created videos that you can use as testimonials and as interest piquing emails.
• Live Broadcasts – the leaders in the company will be able to have online webinar where their audience can see them live on the left side of the screen as well as the PowerPoint presentation on the right. They’ll be able to invite guests to the webinar and pass the camera and mic. to them. Imagine how smaller and greener it makes our world: you can have a face-to-face conversation with people all over the world without living the comfort of your home. No need for refreshments, but let’s not forget to derss for success..

Marie Bennet loves to say that she left her nutritional company in search for a product that saves people money on a bill they had to pay anyway. This is why mlm companies that offer electricity and phone alternatives are successful. Ethos is the only documented product out there that is proven to increase your MPG by up to 19% and more.  With $2/gallon, you can see savings of up to $50 a bottle. Now THAT’s significant. In bad economy, every cent counts.

If you position yourself right today, how much money can you make by helping people save money themselves?

NBC13 published a story today about the added value of network marketing to its distributors. The lady in the story has exeeded her expectations in just 3 months!

The best time to join a network marketing company (and you’ve probably heard this before) is at the pre-launch stage. The investment is not big (sometimes it’s as high as $50 and as low as – free ), the leverage is bigger and the momentum is at its highet.

This is the stage where Ethos FR is right now – about 10 days before its pre-launches, this time by the manufactorer himself who is publicaly traded with 10 years of data and validation to its product.

So what can joining Ethos’ distributors force do for you?

1. Additional income until it replaces your income
2. More time with your family
3. Provide people a product that saves them money (and in these times, every little bit counts)
4. Join the green revolution – you already know that Obama’s recovery plan contains $87 billion in green investment funds–the largest green investment ever!
5. One on one support until you make what you want to make
6. Combine the power of the internet with network marketing – Enjoy state of the art technology tools (video chats, online webinars, conference calls, etc.) that will allow you to use the internet to grow your business internationally
7. And much more.

We are pre-launching in 10 days working up to the official launch April 1st.

Many people have called and emailed me about the ethos for gas vouchers [or lack of]. Most of the complaints sound something like this:

I purchased your product and sent in the vouchers to receive the free gas cards. I have all the email confirmations since JUNE! I have called numerous times because I have not received a single gas card and it has been over six months! They keep telling me they will send it out immediately and I should receive it in two weeks. I have not received anything and now when I attempt to call their phone line is down. What kind of scam is this?!?!

Please let me know when I can expect to see my $25.00 rebates. I’ve sent you 3 months worth so far = $75.00 but haven’t received any rebate as of 1/31/09. E-mail me please w/an update on the status of my rebates or why It’s taking so long. Thank You, RH.

I have been using Ethos for months now and all I can say is what a fantastic product. My car puts out ZERO POLUTION at any speed. My smog guy couldn’t believe his eyes when he read my results when he smoged my car. I would like to know how to get the gas rebate vouchers. I purchased 3 16oz bottles. I did not receive an activation code after my purchase. Can you help. Thank You. I will await your instructions. One more thing, my mileage has gone up from 20 mpg at start to as high as 29 mpg as a high to a low of 24 mpg and 25 mpg. So overall it has really improved my gas mileage

And there are plenty more where these came from.

So what’s the deal with these vouchers? Is it really a scam?

Sadly  – yes. But not all of it.

Here’s the truth behind those Ethos For Gas Vouchers:

First of all, we need to know the players. And in this story there are two – Ethos Environmental Inc. and For Earth.

Ethos Environmental Inc. is a publicly traded company that has been around for the past 10 years. They’ve been selling their product – Ethos Fuel Reformulator, to big companies and governments world wide (not to consumers) and since their product, Ethos FR, really does what it says it will, they’ve managed to go public and grow.

When gas prices started going up and consumers were looking for ways to save on fuel they’ve decided to start selling to individuals as well (where there’s demand, supply quickly comes in to fulfill it).

You remember those times of $4/gallon and the wave all miracle pills that came out as a response. Most of them didn’t work, some were caught by the general attorney, and some never made past the testing of the media.

Standing alone, was Ethos FR. It had the validation of major cooperations, the approval of news stations and enough lab data to and on road testimonials to prove that it does the job.

Problem was – how do we get it to consumers without spending millions on marketing and advertisement? And that’s where For Earth came in.

For Earth is a network marketing company created and lead by Mr. Dan Atkinson and Miguel Gallimore (While Dan was still there it was called 4E). Through their first year of business they’ve teamed up with FreeBeeGas to offer gas rebates with the hope that this will result in a fast growing of the network marketing. When Dan Atkinson left the company, he took FreeBeeGas and his agreement with them with him, and things started falling apart. Miguel tried to force FreeBeeGas to honor their obligations to the public, but as we all know, that didn’t really work out.

Sometime during Dec. 08 Miguel also lost the rights to purchase and sell Ethos FR and so For Earth can no longer distribute Ethos. As a result, they’ve began blending their own fuel additive called – Force.

The good news to all of us is this - Ethos Environmental Inc. decided to do a few things that put the consumer first:

1. They’re bringing the distribution of their product in house. This means that they’re cutting out the middleman (For Earth), which might mean lower prices for their product.
2. They will continue the network marketing distribution model and to do that, they’ve brought Jack Peterson to lead the team. [Jack Peterson had a leading role in bringing NuSkin to the 1.2 billion dollar industry it is today, so you can imagine what he can do with a must-have product]
3. They’re starting fresh – which means that anyone can join their ranks and get a seat at the king’s table when the doors open [watch this site to find out when the pre-launch starts and how to register]
4. And best of all  – they’re working on a way to honor all the bad vouchers that Ethos For Gas has put out there. Sign up to our mailing list to get updates on when that happens.

So the truth about Ethos For Gas Vouchers is simply this: For Earth messed up, and Ethos Environmental [being the ethical company that they are] is coming in to clean up the mess.
