Waiora is an exciting company, with an exciting business opportunity unlike anything I have seen before. This business and company gives me the freedom to travel, vacation with my wife and see relatives all over the country - we can pack up and go anytime we want because I know that my business will still be earning for me.

I have been involved in this industry for more than 10 years and Waiora is different than anything else I have been involved in. Everything the company does, the products, the business, the compensation plan is Distributor friendly - it has all been created and built for the people that help build and grow it - the Distributors. The start-up costs are so minimal, yet the compensation plan has been developed so anyone can earn, especially the "little guy."

I am very familiar with home-based businesses. I currently run a traditional home-based, Internet business. The problem is that it doesn't allow me the time freedom I am looking for. If I am not at my computer every minute of every day making sure that my business is running and customers are helped, then I don't earn money - I am basically married to my computer 24/7. I don't want to be tied to this grind for the rest of my life. That's why network marketing is so unique.

When I enroll someone in my organization, they are working for OUR organization. I then help them enroll and sponsor people to build a large group of people all working for OUR organization. That's the power of leverage and what this opportunity affords. Not only am I working one hour or five hours or ten, but we are all working those hours, and when you add that up it that can be hundreds of hours a week - all working in YOUR business.

Doing the Waiora business is not hard. Simply stated, just pick up the phone and call people. I call on friends, associates - anyone I know. That can be difficult for some people because it's not easy, it's not something people are familiar with. But that's the key - to get out of your comfort zone. That is why I am successful. I "dig in," pick up the phone and make my calls. I am never afraid to call anyone. Sure, I am going to get some "no's", but you need to get those "no's" in order to get the "yes's". The "yes's" are what makes this business so fun and rewarding.

After contacting someone, I three-way the new person into one of our group's five-minute sizzle calls to give them an overview of the business. From there, we have a number of great tools at our disposal to follow-up with - conference calls, the website, the Killer Toxins CD. After that the business does the rest - a great opportunity, ground-floor, great products - especially Natural Cellular Defense. This product is the "silver bullet" that no other company has. Once someone understands the power of this product and what it can do for their health, they are going to use this product for the rest of their lives.

Waiora is changing the way I am living my life and earning an income. But not only for me, but for the hundreds and thousands of people now and in the future that I will introduce Waiora to. Waiora is more than just a company, it's a place that I will earn with and grow with - and be able to pack my suitcase and travel anytime I want.

I got started in network marketing straight out of college. I know of no other industry where you can start up a business with a small initial investment and turn that into an income of up to $10,000 a month in as little as 90 days. Once you achieve that level of success you don't want to do anything else. The key to success is leveraging other people's time and duplication. At one time I worked in sales for a corporation, and with no prior experience I became number one in sales within six months. But I was working 14 hours a day, seeing 100 people a day. I had no leverage in that business; I was the one putting in all the time.

Network marketing allows you to leverage your time and enjoy a residual income no matter where you are. I joined the military and served for nine years, including active duty in the Gulf War. As a Captain in the Army, my annual salary was $36,000 and it was a 24/7 full-time job. During that same time my part-time network marketing business was generating a $15,000 a month check. It's hard to believe that two months of my network marketing business was equal to one year of my regular salary in the Army.

I've been full-time in network marketing for the past 13 years and semi-retired for the past five years enjoying residual income from the industry. During that time, a good scientist and friend of mine who owns an FDA inspected mineral lab enlightened me to the reality that much of what I'd sold over the years in network marketing was actually contributing to toxicity within the body versus providing nutritional value. I became a passionate advocate for the need to detoxify our bodies, creating an environment for our immune system to do what it's supposed to do.

Then I received a call from my good friend Dave Jordan about Natural Cellular Defense and I was immediately intrigued. If this were just a 'me too' product, similar to what else was out in the market, then I wasn't interested. But Natural Cellular Defense is different to everything else out there. For the first time there is a product that I am excited to share with my family and friends. I'm a firm believer in the 'remove' part of Waiora's three-step product philosophy (remove-replenish-restore). Removing the toxins from our system is the foundation for improving health and well being. I believe that this product can help millions of people worldwide.

This isn't a business of selling, it's one of sharing - sharing the stories and testimonies of people whose lives have been changed for the better. To be successful, you have to have a system for everything you do. Our system is simple - first, share information and testimonials - this can be done either by an email, a conference call or the Waiora DVD; second, call and share your story; third, call your upline to do a three-way phone call. With our team using this system, I achieved Diamond in less than five months.

I believe everyone should approach their warm market first. If you found out about a goldmine, would you put an ad in the paper to tell strangers about it or would you tell your friends and family first? That's what the Waiora opportunity is - telling those you know and care about first. I'm not a big believer in Internet marketing because you still have to take the time to build a relationship with that person. It is much faster and more efficient to contact those you already know and have a relationship with. Then, you can develop that relationship further and work to develop them into leaders.

One of the most important roles I have is to look for and develop leaders. I don't look for a certain skill set or previous success - all they need is to have a burning desire and to be teachable. Combined with a good work ethic those elements are the foundation for being a leader. Most of all, look to what the top leaders are doing and emulate their efforts. Do what they do and you will duplicate their success.

While I was attracted to and joined Waiora for the product, I remain because of the quality of the people behind the company and in my organization. In my 21 years of experience in the industry, I've learned that long term success is dependent upon integrity - integrity in the company and integrity in the Distributor base. Waiora has shown me it has a very high standard when it comes to doing what is right.

Over the years, I've seen a great deal of success, achieving financial freedom and everything that comes with it - a nice home, nice cars and the ability to go on vacation when I want. My goals with Waiora include getting my check to $150,000 a month, not for what it can do for me but for what I can do for others. I want to support missions in South America and Asia, helping to build homes for people in areas that need it. Sharing the product for free with those who need it would be incredibly rewarding. I'm excited about this opportunity and am looking forward to a long term future with Waiora.

I'm having a lot of fun with Waiora - in fact, I don't think I've ever had this much fun with a business venture before! There is nothing more rewarding than seeing people achieve their dreams. I know so many people that tried network marketing before with no success, and yet they are joining Waiora and having immediate success. Building this to its full potential takes work - I'm available for my team from 7 a.m.-10 p.m., and that's possible through the unwavering support of my wonderful wife, Bettina - she sees where this is going and is behind it 100 percent.

I almost didn't hear about Waiora. I retired after 20 years of service in the Navy, and then became a PGA golf professional, retiring once again after 26 years as a golf pro. I got started in network marketing several years ago, more to appease my family than anything else and I found that it suited me. Yet I always stayed away from nutritional companies, never believing the outlandish claims made about their products. But then Korey Johnson called to say he just had to share Waiora with me, despite my feelings about nutritional companies. Too often people make the decision for someone, they decide they wouldn't be interested so they don't call or follow up. I am so thankful that Korey did not pre-judge me.

I took a look at the product information and got excited. After speaking to medical professionals and Rik Deitsch, Chairman of Waiora's Scientific Advisory Board, I became a believer. Now, you couldn't keep me away!

It's important to me to have honesty in everything you do and I wouldn't be able to talk about the products if I didn't believe in them. About a year ago, I was diagnosed as a type II diabetic, managed with medication. I started taking the Superior Fiber Blend and began seeing the lowest readings on my meter ever, even after meals. After about 10 days my doctor took me off medication. He reviewed the combination of soluble and insoluble fibers and the plant sterols and just told me to keep doing what I was doing. That's not the only product that has changed my life…the Healthy Aging Formula has given me back my mobility. After the navy and golf, my knees were beat up - it had gotten to the point were I couldn't walk up stairs and after being on the treadmill, I would have to ice my knees and rest for days. Since taking the Healthy Aging Formula, I have no pain and am on the treadmill seven days a week!

It's important to realize that no one does this on their own - not a single person in this business. Use the tools that are available and your upline for support. I have such respect for Waiora and everyone on the support team; they provide world-class customer service, just one of the things that make this so easy. The system is there for your success, giving information, dialing them into a sizzle call and then following up with a three-way call. Sometimes people have a tendency to say too much when they are talking to someone, so let the system work for you, don't oversell, and have fun!

I started out in network marketing when I was 22 years old as a young mom sharing a product that I used with all my friends. I achieved more success than I could have imagined at that age, earning five cars with that company and buying a new house. It was an incredible learning experience. Despite my success, the company took a nosedive and with it, my wonderful lifestyle. I swore off network marketing and said, "never again!"

Years later, while teaching yoga and being a mom of four kids, I was introduced to a network marketing opportunity with wonderful herbal products. Despite how my experience with the other company had ended, I could still see how network marketing offered advantages over every other industry. I had once owned a restaurant franchise and discovered it was nothing more than being a glorified store manager, working endless hours with little or no return. Network marketing on the other hand, allowed me to work on my own schedule and best of all, there would be no limits to what I could achieve.

I caught the wave with that opportunity and rode it for 18 years. My success there completely changed my life. I went from a life of near-poverty to a lifestyle beyond my wildest dreams. My kids got involved and it became our family business. My business flourished in eight countries around the world and my monthly check was $80,000. That financial success gave me total freedom. I was free to develop as a person, to become a leader to others. I was humbled by the responsibility I had to others. I learned how to help and develop others and to use my influence in a positive way. Seeing the impact of financial freedom and how people's lives changed was incredibly fulfilling.

Having enjoyed every success imaginable, I sold my business and totally retired. I bought a house in Hawaii and moved there and played for three years. But there are only so many times you can go to lunch with the girls or days you spend at the beach before you realize something is missing. I began looking for a way to help others, to add greater meaning and purpose to my life. For me, that meaningful direction comes from helping others to develop and grow on a personal level. I believe personal growth and development to be one of the most important things each of us can get out of life. To undergo that growth, I believe we need a tool, something to help us unlock the magic inside each of us. Waiora is just such a tool for transformation.

While Waiora's products are amazing and are life-changing for those experiencing their benefits, I am most excited about the opportunity. I love network marketing because there are no limits. The only limit is the limit you place on your dreams. I like that if someone wants success but has a bad attitude, they won't succeed without personal development. To attract success, you must be an attractive person. And that means you have to be open to personal development, to growing as a person, to changing from the inside out.

I am thrilled with the opportunity Waiora presents for growth and development for all those that join. I appreciate the opportunity to be with a company that has personal development as part of their vision and that welcomes a partnership with its' Distributors.

I looked at Waiora's marketing plan and saw how seamless it was on a global level and how easy and attainable it is. I love it!

I am excited to be part of Waiora. Now is the time to create and lay the foundation for success and have fun while doing it. My philosophy...is if it's not fun - don't do it, but if you have to do it - make it fun. Fun attracts people. People have enough difficulty and challenges in their lives already, they don't need any more. So have fun with your Waiora business.
