LEHI, UT— Oct. 30, 2008 — XanGo, LLC, the mangosteen beverage category creator and market leader, announced today that Senior Vice President Scott Smith will lead a new Distributor Relations Department that will be responsible for every aspect of the distributors’ interaction with XanGo.


Smith will oversee department teams and initiatives that include Customer Service, Elite Services, Recognition, Market Research and Distributor Training. The purpose of the new department is for XanGo to better understand its distributors, provide processes and programs that meet their needs, and create positive experiences to help give distributors the confidence to share the XanGo opportunity with others.


“Scott and I agree that our distributors' success must be at the center of any decisions, innovations and improvements that we make at XanGo,” said CEO Robert Conlee. “As we continue to grow and evolve into a multi-national, multi-billion dollar company, our ability to keep pace with our distributors’ needs and to maintain and improve upon the quality and outcomes of our efforts is crucial to reach our goals.”


Smith brings a background that combines a decade of executive experience in the direct selling industry with an emphasis on customer service and technology. Since joining XanGo three years ago, he has served as Chief Information Officer, helping to develop and launch a new IT system to support the company’s growing international presence.


"Scott's expertise and accomplishments, including the development of a strong and extremely effective management team coupled with his ability to confer with distributors to meet their needs, provides a strong foundation for him to lead this new department," Conlee said.


Smith will report to newly appointed President Craig Hale. Russ Fletcher will now serve as Vice President of Information Technology.
