Oola Global operates in the personal development niche.

Back in 2012 Dave Braun and Troy Amdahl authored Oola: Find balance in an Unbalanced World.

From the Amazon book description;

Oola is not your typical self-help book. Oola is a “state of awesomeness,” it’s when your life is balanced and growing in the 7 key areas of life (Fitness, Finance, Family, Field, Faith, Friends, and Fun).

Oola reads more like a collection of kick-butt anecdotes and sincere stories that just happen to have meaningful messages.

Post-publicatio Braun and Amdahl turned Oola into a “lifestyle brand”‘. This included

a clothing line, live events, over one million followers, and a global coaching network with coaches in 17 countries and all 50 U.S. states.

Oola branded its live events as “Oolapalooza”. Some of the more recent live events were integrated into Young Living:

Oolapalooza 2020 was cancelled last August. The company opted not to put on an online production.

As at the time of publication Oolapalooza is scheduled for December 3rd, 2021. If all goes to plan, Oolapalooza 2021 will be held in Nashville, Tennessee.

2021 also saw Oola launch “Oola Global”, a fully-fledged MLM opportunity.

To get Oola Global off the ground Braun and Amdahl partnered up with Travis Ogden.

As per Ogden’s Oola Global corporate bio;

Travis Ogden has spent the past 8 years of his career leading two of the world’s largest network marketing companies.

His executive level experience with these billion-dollar companies includes positions as CFO, COO, President and CEO.

The two unnamed companies are Young Living and Isagenix.

Ogden worked as a Young Living executive until 2016. In 2016 Ogden joined Isagenix as Chief Operating Officer.

In 2018 Ogden was appointed CEO of Isagenix. Ogden left Isagenix in late 2020, which brings us to Oola Global’s launch in 2021.

On Oola Global’s website Dave Braun and Troy Amdahl are cited as founders of the company.

Ogden is cited as Oola Global’s CEO and a co-founder (presumably of the MLM opportunity, not Oola the brand).

Oola Global doesn’t provide a corporate address on its website. Oola’s LinkedIn profile states its company headquarters are in Virginia Beach in the US.

Read on for a full review of Oola Global’s MLM opportunity. [Continue reading…]

Aleksey Zhirovkin, aka Alexei Mikhailovich Zhukovkin and Alexander Zhirovkin, is the man who plays fictional Antares Trade CEO Alex Richter.

Zhirovkin was outed as Richter in our coverage of Antares Trade’s collapse last week.

I first learned of Richter’s ties to the Dominican Republic via an email tip. I was unable to verify the information however so I published it as unverified.

Thanks to another BehindMLM reader, I can now confirm Zhirovkin is indeed hiding out in the Dominican Republic. [Continue reading…]
