  • Esther Spina - Ambit Energy
    “Are you kidding me? Those things are pyramid schemes!” That was Esther Spina’s initial response when her 25-year-old son joined a Network Marketing company. But once Ether finally agreed to “just take a look,” she was BLOWN AWAY. It was so different than working in the dog-eat-dog world of outside sales like she had been. After saying YES, she went on to build a team of more than 60,000 customers and 20,000 consultants. 
     
    During her interview with Richard Brooke, you’ll get to hear from this author of “The Ambitious Woman: What it Takes and Why You Want to Be One” on how she built her team, tips for working your list and never running out of products, the power of 4 little words, digging past the NOs, and much more!

  • Jenifer Furness - Yoli
    When Jenifer Furness, an overworked occupational therapist, became intrigued about Network Marketing through a random Facebook post, she soon found a stranger at her house, sharing her story and showing her “cheesy videos.” But Jenifer wasn’t even watching the videos. She was just watching the woman sitting on her living room floor, smiling and HAPPY! Jenifer kept thinking, "Why am I not happy? Why is she so happy?”
    This made her say yes to the business. 
     
    Jenifer hit the rank of diamond in 6 months and built a team of nearly 2,500 in 4 years. How did she do it? On this call with Richard Brooke, Jenifer will share how to bring “happy” into your storytelling, how to take control of your calendar, how to help people catch a vision of hope, and tons of other great nuggets.
