Monte Taylor, GeneLink's CEO stated, "In the second quarter, we continued to build upon our core base of Affiliates and customers who are receiving their customized product formulation monthly. GeneWize took major steps in the quarter to support and accelerate this growth. Sharon Tahaney joined the Company as GeneWize's Senior V.P. of Sales and Marketing. Our First Annual GeneWize Leadership Conference was held recently in Orlando, Florida. Sharon's enthusiasm and leadership was apparent to all those in attendance and her impact will be felt throughout our Affiliate organization in the coming months. We're confident our Affiliates and customers will be pleased with the introduction of our LifeMap Me customized skin serum and other new products, systems, and marketing tools."
