“We are changing the way businesses sell to consumers,” said Ridinger. “Since the Internet became an everyday service and necessity, businesses have searched for the ideal way to use it. We combine the convenience of the Internet with a human touch. That difference is the key factor to our continued growth. Our North America operations are stronger than ever while our Pacific Rim operations are growing explosively.”
The company has been on a hiring binge lately, adding over 75 new employees in 2005 and 2006. Staff has been added to increase support for the programming and international support areas. “We have focused our efforts on improving our technology to better serve our distributors and customers,” said Ridinger.

While preparing for the International Convention, Market America is also hosting events in its Pacific Rim operations countries.
