Have you purchased your ticket to MAIC 2013, but you’re having a hard time convincing new team members that they should go? Or are you, yourself on the fence of making the trek to Greensboro for the three-day event? Regardless of which situation you’re in, read what some of our top money-earners have to say about why you and your team must attend International Convention!
Jeremy Fennema
“The best piece of advice I received was to go to Leadership School, now known as World Conference, and here’s why: if I hadn’t gone to Leadership School, I would not have been able to build such a successful UnFranchise® business. If I didn’t go, I would never have brought along a prospect with me, who signed up on the third day and became my very first sponsored person. Not only that, but if I hadn’t gone, I wouldn’t have had the chance to work with the corporate team or be part of the Internet Advisory Board. In three days, I learned more at Leadership School than in the three months leading up to it! I can honestly say that if I didn’t take my mentor’s advice and gone to Leadership School, I would not be sitting here with you today.
My advice to everyone is to go to World Conference and International Convention! The information you learn there is irreplaceable. If you have any intention of becoming a successful UnFranchise® owner, purchasing a ticket is the best investment you can make in yourself and your business.”
Tammy Albanesi
“Attending World Conference and International Convention are a non-negotiable if you want to be successful. I signed up for Market America on a Tuesday at 3 PM and jumped on the bus at midnight the same day to attend the International Convention. Since it was my first time going, naturally I expected to learn more about the business. What I didn’t expect to find were the geniuses behind the business – the Market America Corporate Team. To see that they came from such humble beginnings yet be just as passionate as they were 20 years ago, gave me great inspiration to attack my own business with just as much passion and dedication.”
Laura Laire
“The only event I have missed in 14 years was when I had a baby the same month as one of the events! You will never learn everything on your own, and with such a dynamic company you have to go to the events in order to stay on top of what is going on. I go to these events because I love how energized I feel after an event, and because I know I have to lead by example. If I didn’t go, no one on my team would go. The events aren’t just about me; they’re about building my team’s knowledge, belief, and positively influencing their success.”
Carlos Marrero
“I would not be where I am today if I didn’t make it a point to attend World Conference and International Convention. They help us build belief in the business and in ourselves, recharge our batteries and condition our attitudes to be successful. If your attitude is right you can achieve anything! Not only that, but conventions build our knowledge by introducing us to new products, services and updates to our portal. We don’t have to go out and find the information; these events do the work for us! Not only that, but International Convention is SO MUCH FUN! We party at the Gala, socialize with other UnFranchise® Owners at the host hotel, and have the time of our lives – all in one location! The choice is yours.”
Benson and Michael Chen
“Events like World Conference and International Convention are the only reason why we have achieved anything in this business. The inspiration and knowledge we get from attending these events are irreplaceable. This is why we have never missed an event and never, ever will. Our goal is to always bring more people to an event so they can experience what we experience so that when our team comes back, we’re all on the same page and can build the business together.”
Steve Harris
“I have never passed up an International Convention or World Conference since getting involved in 1995. That’s a total of 18 years and I still haven’t missed one yet!”
Phil Guido
“The best advice I received was to attend every Market America event possible, which helped me build my belief in the business model as well as myself.”
Ryan Stack
“My wife Sarah and I are supervising coordinators and will never miss an event. However, 8 years back it was nearly impossible for us to make our first major event, but we did it – we found a way.”
