Please be aware of the important business rules for the U.S. and U.S. territories.
These rules will affect you if you place an order in the United States or U.S. territories and are relying on the volume for your qualification to earn, worldwide earnings, discount advancement, Sales & Marketing Plan levels, promotions, etc.
