Donald J Trump aka “The Donald” visited Las Vegas for three days earlier this month to promote and oversee a panoply of events he orchestrates. Besides hosting and starring in the NBC show “The Apprentice” (renewed for 2 more years) Trump also executive produces Ms. USA which aired from Planet Hollywood on the 15th.

Trump is known for being an American business magnate, socialite and author. With his success in real estate and television, Trump has succeeded in marketing the Trump name on a large number of products. These products include Trump Financial (a mortgage firm), Trump Sales and Leasing (residential sales), Trump University (a business education company), Trump Restaurants (Located in Trump Tower and consisting of Trump Buffet, Trump Catering, Trump Ice Cream Parlor, and Trump Bar), Go Trump (an online travel website), Donald J. Trump Signature Collection (a line of menswear, men's accessories, and watches), Donald Trump The Fragrance (2004), Trump Ice bottled water, Trump Magazine, Trump Golf, Trump Institute, Trump The Game (1989 Board Game), Trump Vodka, and Trump Steaks. In addition, Trump reportedly receives $1.5 million for each one hour presentation he does for the Learning Annex.

His latest endeavor is to “brand” his name on a variety of self help products which are marketed through The Trump Network. In the fall of 2009, Trump launched his Network, a direct selling vitamin company. The products include PrivaTest, a multi-vitamin, Silhouette Solution, a series of weight loss products, and QuikStik, mood infusion beverages.

His visit to Las Vegas was tied into this latest endeavor and took place at Caesar’s Palace on Friday May 14th. Trump hosted a meeting of over 1000 representatives from the Trump Network. Trump has decided to join forces with Vital Life Networks a Florida based nutritional network marketing company, with independent marketers in all 50 states. Vita Life members currently market a full line of nutritional products; making them ideal candidates to market The Trump Network’s unique line of wellness based products and services. According to Marty Hale, Chief Strategist for The Trump Network, “We believe the current economy along with an incredibly fragmented marketplace will force the network marketing industry to go through a massive consolidation over the next few years. One way for companies to be successful is to align and join forces with one of the few companies positioned to control a large share of the market. Donald Trump’s brand gives The Trump marketers an exciting advantage as it competes in the marketplace for customers and marketers.”

“Vita Life members will soon experience the explosive growth that’s possible when a brand-driven company adds a variety of products and services to The Trump Network distribution channel at any moment. This strategy will help The Trump Network independent marketers exponentially grow their monthly residuals due to the worldwide recognition of the Trump brand,” said Art Knapp, Vice President of Business Development for The Trump Network.

Trump ended his presentation with a witty aphorism he acquired from Gary Player, the golfer, “the harder I work, the luckier I get”. His thousand force marketers were impressed and inspired.
