What Joseph Chang said

Joseph Chang, Nu Skin's Chief Scientific Officer, opened a meet-and-greet by framing the company's mission as 'living better longer,' not just living longer, emphasizing quality of life over lifespan. He shared his personal story of joining Nu Skin through Pharmanex, which was acquired in 1998, and his initial skepticism about direct selling. Chang stressed that aging is inevitable but biological aging can be slowed, and the gap between lifespan and health span is widening, which Nu Skin aims to narrow. He positioned Nu Skin as a 'strange company' that combines wellness with business opportunity, where distributors are not employees but part of a family. He traced the company's history from its 1984 founding, noted the misspelling of 'Nu Skin' by Utah founders, and criticized network marketing's tendency to make unproven claims, contrasting it with Nu Skin's science-backed approach.

Key takeaways

  1. The gap between lifespan and health span is widening, and Nu Skin aims to narrow it.
  2. Pharmanex, co-founded by Chang, was acquired by Nu Skin in 1998.
  3. Nu Skin was founded in 1984 by three individuals in Utah.
  4. Chang criticized network marketing for making claims without proof, unlike Nu Skin.
