Isagenix Takes A Big Step Forward with IsaNet Platform
Chandler, Ariz. – May 12, 2007 – Isagenix has lots of welcome news—strong sales, record-breaking growth, overseas expansion and amazing talent continuing to join its team. All of this leaves the company buzzing with excitement. For the last 18 months, Isagenix CIO Dave Pickrell and his team of IT specialists have been focused intensely on one goal: Support existing Associates and the more than 500 who join Isagenix daily.
Rewind back to August 2005. Isagenix Co-founders Jim and Kathy Coover, and COO/CFO Jim Pierce had the visionary foresight to invest $14 million into developing key Isagenix systems and data centers. This investment set the stage for Pickrell to begin the intricate and vital creation of “IsaNet”—a platform designed to become the technology backbone for a billion-dollar company.
IsaNet’s infrastructure is designed to support Isagenix as the company continues with its rapid development and expansion into multiple international markets. One of the key components of this new infrastructure is a modernized Associate Back Office.
“There is certainly a new look and feel to the Back Office, and the new technologies built into IsaNet allow us to rapidly add to its functionality,” said Pickrell. “Our hope is that when our Associates see and use their new Back Office, they’ll say, ‘Wow! What a great system!’”
Pickrell’s team has built the Associate Back Office to include a new user-friendly design. It features summarized data, simplified ordering and enrollment, more-detailed compensation history and easier downline placement.
Added Pickrell, “IsaNet has been a true feat of teamwork from all Isagenix departments.”
“Because we’re going to be the largest health-and-wellness company in the world, we need the best technology to support our Associates,” said Jim Coover. “Our Isagenix technology team has done a great job of providing the tools we’ve been dreaming about. IsaNet will provide superior IT support for the field.”
IsaNet is housed in a state-of-the-art data center managed by a multi-billion-dollar enterprise. According to Pickrell, the system is “double-backed up and very secure.”
