Sylvia Reaches Executive Director in 100 Days

Sylvia has been in network marketing for 50 years and has loved every minute of it. As a single mom struggling to make ends meet, she started out knowing nothing about the industry. Over the years, her experience with network marketing has brought her great success and rewards both personally and professionally.

In 1995, she received a call about a weight-loss product called Calorad. “I lost weight and fell in love with the product, built another great business, and had the blessing of meeting Coach Jay at that time.”

“When I heard that some members of the Calorad team discovered Asantae, I went to the Web site and listened to Dr. Lundell’s video and read about HeartShot. The timing was incredible because my son-in-law was just recovering from triple bypass surgery. When Dr. Lundell came to my area to take part in the Ironman, he took the time to come to my home for a meeting.” It was there that she first heard about Asantae Java.

“Now, I’m a coffeeholic. I had been feeling guilty about drinking too much coffee so you can imagine how thrilled I was to hear about our Java, a gourmet, healthy, organic coffee powered with antioxidants.”

Sylvia listened to the first conference call with a few friends. Even with no samples, product to sell or marketing materials, she brewed a pot of Asantae Java from her own kitchen. “Everyone loved the coffee and was impressed by the opportunity. People got excited and I saw their excitement. I could see how this was an avenue that would open doors because three out of four people drink coffee!”

Sylvia is product driven. She believes that when you are product driven and you have a great, sellable product like Asantae Java, the money comes. She has built an incredible business and advanced up the ranks to become the company’s first Executive Director. She achieved this milestone in only 100 days. Building her Asantae Java business has also given her the chance to work with her daughter Aloha.

“This opportunity is for everyone and it’s virtually unlimited.”

Sylvia’s Tips for Success:

• Know that building a business means that you are helping people.
• Help people gain confidence and envision the possibilities to live comfortably.
• Build a foundation for three months. As my contractor husband Tom knows, if you don’t have a strong foundation you can’t build a house.
• Be willing to put the work in! It’s not just going to happen.
• Follow up and genuinely care for people.

Success Story

Passion and Persistence Are Key for Executive Director Paul

Paul is no stranger to hard work. At the age of 18 he started a successful construction company and later moved to California to work in the entertainment industry. Among the many hats he wears, he has also found great success in network marketing. Since his early 20’s, he’s been a top leader with many companies including earning the title of the king of vacuum cleaners after shattering a 68-year-old standing record in more than a hundred and sixty countries by bringing in over ninety thousand dollars a month in sales for the company. He has built and trained teams worldwide on how to achieve greatness and harness their full potential.

He attributes much of his success to lessons learned at a young age. He started a landscaping company at the age of seven and hired three of his friends. In only a few months, he had 93 regular customers just by going door to door and cold calling throughout the neighborhood. By the age of 10, along with his yard cutting business, he had a 486 home paper route that he followed every morning at 4 am, seven days a week. “The best part was I had the same employees and best friends working with me all the way up to when I moved to California at age 36. In all my ventures, it was always about supporting my teams and being by their side. It was always about understanding that I could not be a great leader without making sure I had a great team in place!”

His decision to walk away from other companies to come on board full time with Asantae was a no-brainer decision, according to Paul. “I knew that regardless of how big I could grow my companies, they would never be able to com¬pete with the 60-billion-dollar coffee industry, especially the world’s first most powerful antioxidant coffee on the planet. I have never seen in my life anything that comes close to the power and strength that Asantae has brought to the table for all of us; to have a recession proof product in the worst financial collapse in economic history. The products and living a very healthy lifestyle have changed my life forever.”

When not hard at work, Paul is involved in charitable work and environmental issues. He donates funds to saving the environment and helping raise money for groups like Mi Casa, which provides homes for abused children. Protecting the planet is also really important to Paul. He studied marine biology and has worked very hard to clean up the beautiful oceans of the world. “If you align with groups of individuals with like-minded goals you can accomplish great things in small amounts of time,” shares Paul.

Paul is quick to share that he wouldn’t be where he is today without the support of so many people including his mentor Coach Jay, the entire Asantae corporate team, his dear friend Sylvia, his leaders Nary and Sophal, everyone on his team and his deep faith in God. His most important thank you is to his family. “The support my wife and kids give me is simply amazing. They watch me continue to drive very hard to make sure the legacy of what I want to accomplish for my family happens. They are always there waiting for me and adjusting to their crazy schedules. I love you all dearly for standing behind my decision for greatness!”

Paul’s Tips for Success:
• Always stay focused
• Surround yourself with great mentors
• Learn to be a master of efficiency and time management
• Follow through on what you say
• Never be late for anything that has been planned or scheduled
• Believe that opportunity is the chance to take the next breath and always be ready for whatever is placed in front of you
• Never stop learning and be open to new ideas
