Art of War
“If the trumpet does not sound a clear call, who will get ready for battle?”
1 Corinthians 14:8
Clarity is required for a successful strategy. If you cannot plan the next 24 hours, you cannot plan 24 years. Business can be best understood as economic warfare.
You must design a clear strategy for your business warfare.
The United States Military has a manual for the art of warfare. Let’s learn from it.

• Maneuver – Zija International is a ground floor opportunity and the market is wide open, not saturated like Amway, Mary Kay, Herbalife, Shaklee, etc.
• Unity of Command – Our Zija team is the fastest growing team in the company, due to the commitment and dedication of leadership from our upline.
• Security – I am in business for myself but because of the tremendous upline support, I am not in business by myself. Furthermore, I can never get “fired” by a boss and there is no limit to the income that can be made with this opportunity.
