Forever | July 2016
REMEMBERING WHAT FOREVER IS BUILT ON I remember back when Forever started: the success was incredible and we grew rapidly, but as you know with any business, it’s not always smooth sailing. Sometimes there’s a bump in the road that forces us to find the strength to move forward.
During Christmas of 1982 I was sitting at home with the family when the phone rang. They informed me that there had been a freeze at our aloe plantations in Texas and all of our aloe was destroyed. I immediately flew to South Texas to see what we could do, hoping and praying that when I arrived what I saw would be better than the news I’d received, but that wasn’t the case. We had no aloe. And the business immediately began to suffer.
4 REX’S MESSAGE
Forever | July 2016
It was a tough lesson to learn. But during the toughest times we become stronger and we grow the most. We grow roots that strengthen us and help us to overcome the challenges and obstacles that life throws at us.
I have learnt that solid principles and core beliefs do not have a ‘sell by’ date. It is never old fashioned or out of style to be nice to each other, to honour your commitments and to treat people how you would wish to be treated. I recognise that many of you might not have heard about this story as you are new in the company, and I am thrilled that you’re part of our Forever family, but I do ask you to be mindful of the foundation upon which this company has been built. Forever was built on the principles of paying the highest bonuses possible, providing the most effective and highest quality products and empowering people to serve one another.
There are no shortcuts to success in our business. Of course, the speed at which we reach certain levels may vary, but the fundamental principles remain unchanged and will remain unchanged as we continue our journey.
Never forget that you’re a part of something special: a business built upon taking the tough road. It may not be as fast and as shiny as you might want it to be, but take it from me, the road on which you must roll up your sleeves and work hard is richer, more wonderful, more fulfilling and more lasting than you can ever imagine.
Forever Yours,
Rex Maughan
Chairman and CEO
There were some FBOs that left us, but more importantly there were those that stayed. It was a tough time for us: we put everything on the line to stay in business and there were many sleepless nights, but we were convinced that what we were doing was right. We decided that this would never happen to us again. We flew out to the Dominican Republic, purchased as much land as we could, and began planting aloe in one of the safest weather zones in the world. In addition to the acres of plantations in the Dominican Republic, we now have plantations in Mexico and South Texas.
FREE FROM STRESSSponsor // Tina Rigg
Supervisor // Upasna Gupta
My background is in HR and when I came to England six years ago I started working as a recruitment consultant. This was by far the most stressful time of my life and I hated every minute of my job. When I learnt that I was expecting my little girl, I decided to quit my job due to health reasons. I was really glad to be off work and I was enjoying every minute of motherhood again (it had been ten years). Although I knew I didn’t want to go back to full-time work, I also knew that I wouldn’t want to be a stay-at-home mum, so I started to look for opportunities that would allow me to work around my children part-time.
I came across a Facebook advert that was promoting the Forever business opportunity and I decided to look into it a bit more. At first I was unsure if I could do it, but then I started questioning my own doubts – if others could do it, then why couldn’t I do it too? I took a leap of faith and decided to give it a try. At the time I was about to leave for my summer break to India, so I initially started by just using the products. I used the products extensively whilst I was in India and that’s what built my confidence in them, and in Forever as a company.
I absolutely love what I do. Forever provides me with a regular income, freedom from a full-time job and the chance to be my own boss. I have time to spend with my children, I can help my

older son with his studies, we can do things together and I can be with them if they’re unwell. I don’t have to stress about leaving them with the childminder anymore! I achieved Supervisor in February and it’s been exciting gaining that promotion and moving up the Marketing Plan, but more than anything it has proven to me that I can achieve new heights if I want to.
Forever has instilled new confidence in me, and it has given me the power to dream and not be afraid. I may have been a bit ‘slow’ during those first initial months, but now I’m confident and I’m going in for the kill; I won’t stop until I have achieved what I want to – watch this space!
TAKE CONTROL OF YOUR DESTINYI'm writing this on the day that it was announced that the UK are exiting the EU and there will obviously be changes ahead, and also a degree of the unknown. It has made me reflect on how important it is to have as much personal control over your life and future as is possible. Governments and alliances will always be in a state of flux, and this fluidity can mean a major state of insecurity for many people, without them being able to do anything about it! That’s why I am so grateful for our opportunity in Forever. Having a vehicle that we can use to build long-term security is, I believe, more important in the last few years than ever before. I know that Forever works, and that the opportunity can be accessed and used by almost anyone. I know that it delivers results – tens of thousands of satisfied customers and thousands of successful individual business owners prove that fact!
We don't stop washing, moisturising, getting fitter, losing weight, etc., just because we are having a change of government or leaving/joining a trade or political alliance. We may however, if we are not in control, suffer the consequences of such a change. Most people rely on their employment for financial well-being, so who knows how any change might affect them? But we know that owning our own Forever business puts us much more in control.
Making that mental shift that puts you in the driving seat takes courage of course, but it is so rewarding. One of my favourite quotes on this subject is from Teddy Roosevelt:
The Man in the Arena: “It is not the critic who counts, not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better.
“The credit belongs to the man in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly… who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself in a worthy cause, who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who have never known neither victory nor defeat.”
Enjoy the summer months and keep motivated to be different,

6 BOB’S MESSAGE
Forever | July 2016
It may not yet be accepted in all circles as a mainstream business, but I truly believe that will happen in the future as more and more individuals enjoy success and the benefits of being able to generate their livelihood in a flexible way.
Imagine how comfortable it feels, how much peace of mind you have, when you have mastered the skills, developed your positive mindset, and achieved financial independence through Forever. Financial independence may not mean that you want to earn a fortune, although of course you can, it may simply be that, irrespective of what government or association the country has, you are in control of your destiny. Let’s face it, irrespective of most circumstances our products are in a sector that will always be high on people’s priority list.

THE FREEDOM TO CHOOSE
Sponsor // Caroline Edwards
Assistant Manager // Tom McKelvie
Whilst our careers have given us many enjoyable moments, rewarding experiences and skills to boot, they have simply diminished the dreams we once had. Over the years we could see ourselves losing sight of what we once believed was possible. Throw in a mortgage or two, some car finance and a family, and all of a sudden we felt trapped. Not because of the little family we had created or because of a lack of ambition, but rather the lack of opportunity.
For us life is about experiences, creating memories and most importantly having choices. Having Gracie made us quickly realise we were no longer in control of our lives, our future and our children’s future. This is when we decided to take a proper look into the business opportunity.
We had joined the business the year before after falling in love with the products and we had already enjoyed a small retail income. We looked deeper into the possibilities and quickly got excited about what we could do and where it could take us. Our goals started to get bigger and our ambition grew. We literally regressed to our younger selves: not limited by financial strain, time-consuming jobs or our own self-doubt. The prospect of growing a team and helping others achieve their goals was really exciting.
Our reason for doing what we do is about creating more choices in life. We work with the most amazing and inspiring group of people; we have so much fun, it’s exciting, challenging and rewarding on so many
levels, but what strikes me the most is the level of personal development. We are literally better versions of ourselves thanks to this opportunity. I have been fortunate enough already to reduce my hours at work and I’m one step closer to sacking the boss, spending more time with our daughter and having the financial freedom to decide what to do next. My wife is still teaching full-time and although she loves her job she would like to have the freedom to make some choices in the near future.
We haven’t shot up the Marketing Plan at the rate some do, we have had other priorities, but that is the beauty of this business. Our dream board is our daily reminder of what we know we can achieve and we are certain the future will give us everything we ever hoped and more!
Tom and his wife have professional careers in criminal justice and education so they are no strangers to hard work. They were both happy and the long hours were well paid so they rarely complained. That was until their daughter Gracie came along… "...we have so much
fun, it’s exciting, challenging and rewarding on so many levels, but what strikes me the most is the level of personal development."

SOMETHING HAD TO CHANGE
Sponsor // Mandy Lagden
Manager // Frances Woollard
I did an engineering degree in the eighties and immediately went into the world of IT, working my way up to team leader. I loved my work, but my life completely changed when I had my children.
My children are both the result of IVF treatment, and so I knew that I wanted to be a stay-at-home mum. Life was wonderful, but when my youngest turned two, money started to become an issue and I was also diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis. I needed to be able to work from home so I set up my own IT business. I loved the flexibility this business gave me and I would often work late into the night so that I could spend quality time with the children during the day.
Unfortunately my business was hit by the recession, and in 2011 I was divorced after twenty-four years of marriage. My life fell apart. I was on anti-depressants and my health was getting worse. I knew I had to change something but I also knew that I didn't want to work for anyone else. One day I heard a lady talking about a recent promotion in her Forever business; she looked so happy. We met up and I immediately saw an opportunity which meant I could continue to work from home around my children. I signed up in June 2012.
After signing up my health started to improve and my confidence grew. But after getting to Assistant Manager I stopped believing in myself and my business stopped growing.
Frances was used to running her own business but she needed to find something more sustainable; something that would give her time with her family…
"I decided to work on my self-belief and my mindset and that’s when, in January 2016, I achieved Manager."
About a year ago I realised something had to change; I decided to work on my self-belief and my mindset and that’s when, in January 2016, I achieved Manager.
My life is getting more and more exciting every day, and my daughter (who is now eighteen and who has always believed I could do this) has also joined the business – she is now ready for when she goes to university in September! Forever has given me so much: I think it’s absolutely amazing that I’m able to set up my daughter with her own business at eighteen, and now I also have the freedom to spend time with my mum who is in her eighties.

DID YOU KNOW?Mike Tuck’s team – Sheffield Sharks – recently won the British Basketball League (BBL) and in 2016 Mike was presented with the ‘Most Valuable Player’ award (MVP) – this is a huge accomplishment and we are so proud of him. Congratulations Mike.
Forever | July 2016
11LEAD BY EXAMPLE
LEAD BY EXAMPLEUK F.I.T. Ambassador Mike Tuck is a professional basketball player for the Sheffield Sharks. As club captain, Mike understands the importance of leadership and how mentality can impact his team, and although his field may be different, there is much to learn from the way he leads.
The Sheffield Sharks are an award-winning club and Mike’s team recently won the season. Such success is the product of strong leadership and we asked Mike to share his advice and thoughts on leading a team to success…
HOW DO YOU MOTIVATE YOUR TEAM?
Set goals – I think that having a clear vision of what you are trying to achieve is important. It gives the team motivation and something to strive for. Monthly, weekly and daily reminders of specific goals can help people to focus on the micro tasks that help them to achieve the overall macro goals.
Lead by example – Setting a good example for the team, especially when you are a leader, will help to set a benchmark of expectation. In my field, players will feed off your energy and try to match it. Showing up early, staying late, being consistent, and keeping a high energy level, all factor in.
Respect – Respect is earned not given, but it is a two-way street. I believe that when you give respect you usually get it back, and this will provide a more productive environment.
WHAT DO YOU THINK MAKES A GOOD LEADER?
Setting an example – Whether you like it or not, as a leader, your habits, the way you hold yourself and your actions will rub off on your team.
As a younger player I can always remember the great leaders and captains I’ve had. Some of what they’ve said I still hear today, and sometimes I hear it come out of my own mouth! It was always the ones that were able to bring everyone together and get them to buy into the system that were successful. That’s what I try to bring to the table every time I step out on to the court.
Consider this: What kind of leader do you want to be?
IF SOMEONE ON YOUR TEAM ISN'T PULLING THEIR WEIGHT, HOW DO YOU DEAL WITH THEM?
Honesty – The best teams that I've been a part of have always been extremely honest with each other; when someone is under-performing, we have, as a team, always let them know. How they react to that will depend on their mental toughness, but also on the delivery of the news.
Forever | July 2016
12 LEAD BY EXAMPLE
WHAT HAS HELPED YOU TO DEVELOP IN YOUR ROLE AS CAPTAIN?
Mentors – I've been extremely lucky in my career to have many great coaches, captains and players to look up to. The best have always been those who have influenced a team, and those who are able to get players to invest one hundred percent into a game.
Forever tip: Surround yourself with your upline and attend trainings that enable you to learn from the Area Development Directors and other top leaders in the business. Success Express events are also inspiring and encouraging environments where successful Forever Business Owners provide coaching and advice to attendees. Don’t miss out!
Mistakes – Almost every year I tell my team that I've probably made more mistakes in my game than anyone else on the team, but that’s how I’ve learned
and I’ve bounced back from those mistakes. How I’ve dealt with those situations is what defines me as a player, as a leader, and as a man.
Time – Being a good captain or leader doesn't happen overnight! Although I think that I showed many leadership traits early on in my career, which is why they asked me to take the helm in the first place, much of how I am as a leader has been developed over the years. Learning from my mistakes, other great leaders and influencers around me, and trial and error have all been necessary to my development.
HOW DO YOU HANDLE SET-BACKS?
I have definitely made mistakes, on and off the court! Losing and making mistakes is as much a part of the game as winning is. Losing helps you figure out your weaknesses so that you can address them, improve on them, and not repeat them. I've been on teams where we started slow or had big dips, but then we’ve peaked at the right game or at the right point in the season; this is because we were able to learn and grow from our mistakes.
Call a meeting – The first step when someone is under-performing is usually a quick individual meeting to address the issue. This lets the team member know that there is an issue; it holds them accountable and it helps them set personal goals to rectify it. In my field, if the issue continues, then calling them out in front of the group, or calling a team meeting, will put added pressure on that player to step up their performance. Again delivery is always key as different personalities react differently to situations; added pressure can make some players thrive while others might crumble.
Forever tip: Think carefully about how you address your team members, as your delivery of criticism may be taken by individuals in different ways. Ensure you carefully consider each individual’s character first and build solid relationships with your team to help you gauge how each person may respond to situations.
"Learning from my mistakes, other great leaders and influencers around me, and trial and error have all been necessary to my development."
Forever | July 2016
13LEAD BY EXAMPLE
Forever tip: Building a business is not easy and sometimes set-backs or slander can catch you off guard. Don’t give up by letting these hurdles stand in your way; instead fix your eyes firmly on your goals and believe that you can overcome the challenges.
WHAT HELPS YOU TO BUILD A POSITIVE MINDSET?
Preparation – Being prepared helps me to build both confidence and a positive mindset. Setting out goals and consistently coming into the gym and working hard helps me to feel prepared and ready to take on what lies ahead.
Attitude – Focusing on the ‘cans’ instead of the ‘can’ts’ is extremely important. Recognising negativity and shutting it down quickly can change your outlook, and sometimes all it takes is telling yourself to smile. If I go into my daily training with a good attitude and a smile on my face, this will automatically transfer onto my game.
Visualisation – This is a big influence and one that I’ve been trying to use more of late. Picturing yourself as successful in certain situations can be crucial in helping you to achieve what you want. Every time I step to the free-throw line, I visualise the ball going through the basket before I shoot; this mental imagery can be effective and it certainly boosts my confidence!
Consider this: Have you read the ‘Power of a positive mindset’ article that features in the latest edition of Aloe Matters magazine? It’s definitely worth a read. Buy Aloe Matters today from foreverliving.com. Code 1452 | £3.50 (pack of ten).
WHAT HELPS YOU TO MAINTAIN A POSITIVE ATTITUDE AFTER YOU'VE HAD A SET-BACK?
Taking away the positives – I always try to take away the positives from the negative. A loss or mistake can be viewed as a lesson learned so I always try to view losses as an opportunity to bounce back.
Thinking of the bigger picture – Losses, mistakes and set-backs are usually temporary or very small in the grand scale of things. Take time to remind yourself of the bigger picture and what your ultimate goal actually is; consider how you will feel when you get there.
My support network – After a set-back or loss it is always good to get in touch with someone from your support network. This may be a partner, parent, sibling, best friend, or simply someone you can blow off steam too. Anyone who provides you with support and a confidence boost is worth keeping close.
WHO DO YOU ADMIRE WHO HAS A GREAT MINDSET?
I have been so fortunate to have many people with great mindsets cross my path, so it’s really hard to narrow it down to a concise list. Aside from all the great coaches and players that I’ve looked up to as mentors, I think the person that stands out the most in my life is my dad. My dad is an extremely hard worker; he comes from a blue-collar family where hard work and dedication to the family were drilled into him all his life. Every day he has set an amazing example for me on how to be a man, and he is one of those people that constantly puts others before him. He is constantly trying to provide and he is always trying to remain positive even in difficult situations. I would not be where I am today without him and I believe this all comes down to his mindset.
Consider this: What kind of mindset do you want your children to remember you having?
Forever | July 2016
14 LEAD BY EXAMPLE
on a team in pre-season training where the coach made us run around a track for conditioning. While running with the group quite a few of the guys would start moaning and complaining about the distance and laps. It would have been very easy to join in, but instead their complaining motivated me to run faster so that I could get away from the negative energy. The guys that came with me ended up being successful within the team, while the others ended up spending most of their time on the bench!
HOW CAN FOREVER BUSINESS OWNERS LEARN FROM A SPORTS TEAM?
There’s no ‘I’ in team – There are so many parallels to be drawn between sport and business, but I believe that in any successful business or sports team, the correct mindset or ethos has to come from the top down. When you create a culture where success, hard work, and a positive mindset are present you are bound for good things. The best coaches (or managers) are always the ones that can recruit and bring a harmonious team together.
WHAT ADVICE WOULD YOU GIVE TO SOMEONE WHO NEEDS TO WORK ON THEIR MINDSET?
Analyse your situation – Step back and try to look at what’s holding you back or what’s affecting your mindset. Recognising a recent set-back or opening up to confidence issues may be the first step to moving towards a positive, strong mindset. Usually if we are able to find the root of the problem and address it, it will make the process easier.
Be willing to take a risk – Too often we end up making the safe or easy choice out of fear or comfort, when really what we want to achieve is right there. Taking a chance and putting yourself out there can help you to reach these goals. Once you’ve made the commitment to approach things with a positive mindset, take that first leap and you’ll see a snowball effect.
You’re only as good as the company you keep – You are, or eventually will become, the people that you surround yourself with. This is an age-old saying that speaks volumes, and a perfect example of this would be when I was at a former club. I can remember being
The best teams are always the ones that have players (team members) that are willing to work together towards their goals. Mindset plays a huge role here and it is important on every level.
Forever tip: The beauty of being an independent business owner is that you get to choose who you work with. Carefully consider how you are going to treat your team members, educate them in the business and products properly, encourage them frequently, and ensure that they too understand the importance of building, developing and working as a team.

DESTINED TO GROW Sponsor //
Natalie Valenti
Senior Managers // Jennifer and Matthew Hardie
Matt and I live in Scotland with our three kids, Joshua, Ruby and Joya, and our dog Bruce. We joined Forever almost two years ago, I was pregnant with my third baby at the time, but I loved the products and I really wanted to benefit from the product discount.
At the time I had a lot of work on: I was running a musical theatre and ballet school, I was managing projects, I had shows to choreograph and direct, and I was also working for various other companies.
With all this, two children and another on the way I had no time at all for Forever, or so I thought! Despite this I arranged a few get-togethers with my friends and family and I started recommending products to them. Slowly my retail business grew and within my first two months I was promoted to Supervisor.
Since I was so busy, I didn't think about building a team until a few people showed an interest. I thought I may as well give it a go, so slowly I started to build and coach a team. It was mainly through Facebook
and Skype – I'd squeeze it into the small gaps in my day – and if
I was lucky I’d escape the madness and have a meeting face-to-face! Eventually I hit Assistant Manager and that's when things really started to change. I found myself taking less work on with theatre
schools and spending more time with the kids. I loved it and
decided to see how much further I could take my business.
Jennifer and Matthew actually joined to benefit from the product discount, but it seems that their business was destined to grow…
I re-focused and put a plan and goal in place (I wanted to earn £2,000 a month), and in just a few months so much changed.
I am now a Senior Manager, I pick and choose how I structure my day and I work when I like. I work my Forever business part-time but I make a full-time wage, and my husband has been able to leave his retail job. Becoming a Forever Business Owner has been the best decision I've ever made. I've learned so much about myself, made some amazing friends, and I feel motivated everyday thanks to the support and training available. I'm now helping over 130 people build their own Forever empires. I get paid to stay healthy, happy and help others to do the same – how cool is that?!

ADAM MAY: FOREVER’S FIRST EVER
DIAMOND SAPPHIRE EAGLE MANAGER
Diamond Sapphire Manager Adam May has been a Forever Business Owner since the early nineties. He
is part of the Global Leadership Team (GLT), he’s a phenomenal businessman, and he’s one of the most
successful FBOs in the world. Recently he achieved a position that no FBO in the entire Forever global family
has ever reached before – Adam achieved Diamond Sapphire EAGLE Manager.
The Eagle Manager incentive is a programme that Forever is particularly passionate about. It teaches FBOs to build stable and deep foundations so that
their business can remain grounded. Gregg Maughan, Forever’s President, says, “If you build something deep and well-grounded then, when your business goes through hard times, losing a few leaves won’t disrupt your core.” Building strong
foundations is crucial and doing so will impact the longevity of your business. Adam May is a businessman through and through and he aimed for Eagle
because he knew that his business needed to be firmly planted on solid ground. Forever’s Editor, Kate Hodge, caught up with Adam to hear his story and how he
reached this monumental milestone…

KH: HOW DID YOU DISCOVER FOREVER?
AM: After leaving university I went to work in the city; I was a broker for seven years (and I did that successfully for those seven years) but it was a typical cash-rich time-poor lifestyle. I decided I wanted to run my own business and a couple of colleagues and I set up a financial services business. It was just after the financial crash of the early 1990s when interest rates peaked at 16%, and it really was a terrible time to set up a financial services business. After two-and-a-half years that business went bust and I lost absolutely everything – literally everything.
I had to go back and get a job working for someone else, which was dreadful, especially as I was used to being my own boss.
At around the same time a friend invited me to go along and look at an opportunity. I was just blown away – I could see the numbers. The thing about network marketing is that people think it’s more complicated than it is, but it’s simply geometrical progression. I saw this model, about a lot of people doing a little bit, and I realised that as long as you keep it simple, duplication could occur very quickly and give you this fantastic income.

Manager in each, so I knew it was going to be challenging.
I’ve always believed that leaders should qualify for everything, whether you are going to get recognised for it or not. For the first two years of the Eagle programme I saw everyone going off to Sardinia and Lake Tahoe and I was a bit upset that I wasn’t able to qualify. I had done the qualification myself – the Eagle Manager part – but I only had eight legs not the ten I needed. In 2014 and 2015 I qualified to go to EMR because I was a part of the GLT, but I wasn’t an Eagle. In January of this year I received a call from Aidan O’Hare, Executive Vice President of Europe and Marketing, and he told me that the Home Office in Arizona had crunched the numbers and it looked as if this year I was going to do it; I could have ten legs. So off I went, working deep within my downline and every few weeks Aidan and I would catch up to see how I was doing. On the last day of April, the final day of the qualification period, I asked for the numbers to be crunched again – but I didn’t have ten legs; I had eleven!
TO ACHIEVE EAGLE MANAGER YOU NEED TO:1. Be active and qualify for the
Leadership Bonus every month.
2. Accumulate at least 720 total case credits, including at least 100 case credits from new, personally-sponsored downlines.
3. Personally sponsor and develop at least two new Supervisor lines.
4. Support local and regional meetings.
In addition to the requirements listed above, Senior Managers and above must also develop and maintain downline Eagle Managers as outlined in the following structure:
+ Senior Managers need ONE downline Eagle Manager.
+ Soaring Managers need THREE downline Eagle Managers.
+ Sapphire Managers need SIX downline Eagle Managers.
+ Diamond Sapphire Managers need TEN downline Eagle Managers. (This was Adam’s goal).
+ Diamond Managers need FIFTEEN downline Eagle Managers.
+ Double Diamond Managers need TWENTY-FIVE downline Eagle Managers.
+ Triple Diamond Managers need THIRTY-FIVE downline Eagle Managers.
+ Centurion Diamond Managers need FORTY-FIVE downline Eagle Managers.
I signed up with the company (the company was not Forever) and I did this for two years before falling out of love with that company. I had however fallen in love with the industry.
After leaving, I carried out my own research and I found Forever. It was just a fit. I liked the products, I liked the company, but more than anything else I liked the ethics. I got started back in August 1993 and I was part-time for the first two years – I found about fifteen hours a week alongside my busy full-time job – and within six months my income was over £2,000 a month; within twenty-one months it was over £5,000 per month and this gave me the confidence to go full-time. This was in July 1995.
I didn’t take a single day’s holiday in those first two years; every single holiday day I took I used to build my Forever business. People often ask me whether it was difficult working the business alongside my full-time job, and I suppose it must have been, but I can’t remember that because I have such a fantastic lifestyle now. I get an income from a substantial number of countries, I’ve qualified for Level 3 Chairman’s Bonus and I’ve just been recognised as the first ever Diamond Sapphire Eagle Manager in the world.
I’m so proud of my team and I’m also proud to be a part of team UK; we’ve been the number one country for the past two years now and it’s great that we’ve now got another first.
KH: WAS ACHIEVING DIAMOND SAPPHIRE EAGLE MANAGER A DIFFICULT PROCESS?
AM: It definitely wasn’t easy. I was privileged enough to be in the original meetings when the Eagle Manager programme was first discussed (six years ago) and when it was structured all of us that were in the higher positions knew that it would be difficult to achieve. As a Diamond Sapphire Manager I needed ten separate downline legs with an Eagle
KH: WHAT DOES AN AVERAGE WORKING WEEK LOOK LIKE FOR YOU NOW?
AM: I still focus on sponsoring people myself – I think that it is really important, if you want to stay relevant, to be at the coalface – and I still do a lot of learning. You are either green and growing or ripe and rotting and I prefer to be green and growing so I’m always reading, looking at YouTube clips or listening to audio books. There are so many great things that we have access to that inspire us, help us with our personal development and help us with network marketing; the day you think you know it all is the day your business starts to shrink!
I also do a lot of work within my team. I do a lot of coaching, Skype calls, launches, and I still do one-to-ones; in fact, I don’t really do anything differently from someone who is new to the business. I’ve been in the business for nearly twenty-three years but people are working their way up far faster than I did.
The one thing I would say though is make sure that you are building a strong business, not just a business.
RECOGNITION
KH: SO WHY IS ACHIEVING EAGLE MANAGER SO IMPORTANT?
AM: Eagle Manager is important because it gives new Managers a stepping stone to Chairman’s Bonus and Global Rally; it helps new Managers to build their business. You can’t achieve Eagle until you have achieved Manager, and Manager requires three to four months of consistent activity and about twenty-five people in your team. To achieve Eagle Manager you have to do 720CCs in the calendar year (1st May – 30th April), 100 of these case credits have to be from newly-sponsored FBOs and you have to develop at least two Supervisors in your downline. If you do that you’ll be going on the Eagle Managers’ Retreat, wherever it is. Part of the criteria for Chairman’s Bonus is that you have to achieve 700 non-Manager case credits, 150 of which must come from newly-sponsored FBOs. In addition you need at least one Manager in your downline that has achieved sales of 600CC. If you don’t have this Manager, at least if you have achieved Eagle Manager you are part way there. Then, when you do eventually get a Manager beneath you doing 600CC, you will achieve Chairman’s Bonus as well as Eagle. Forever is so clever to put in these stepping stones that encourage continual business development.
Every Manager, no matter what their position, should be doing what they need to do to achieve the Eagle Manager part of the qualification. It doesn’t matter if you don’t qualify for EMR, but you need to be able to look all your team in the eye and say, ‘I did my bit’. If you keep doing it, one day you will qualify.
KH: WHAT CAN PEOPLE EXPECT TO GET OUT OF THE EAGLE MANAGERS’ RETREAT (EMR)?
AM: I don’t think people should treat it as a holiday; it is a working trip. You can always extend the trip to make it a holiday, Forever will pay for your flights and you’ll just have to pay for your extra accommodation, but EMR should be viewed as an opportunity to mix with the best of the best. It’s one of the few times you can get up close and personal with GLT members, Level 3 Chairman’s Bonus cheque qualifiers and other high achieving people in Forever, not to mention Rex, Gregg and Aidan!
This is an opportunity to receive trainings from some of the top Forever Business Owners in the world; a chance to gain the knowledge you need in order to springboard your business to the next level – that’s why it is so important.
So I have a question for you all: if you’re not qualifying for Eagle, how many more times are you going to look at the live stream on your laptop while everyone else is at the Eagle Managers’ Retreat or Global Rally? How many Facebook posts are you going to ‘like’ on other people’s walls about all the fun they are having while you’re stuck at home? Set your sights on Manager, and then Eagle, and then keep going from there. If I can do it, anyone can do it.
Rex has made this a level playing field; anyone can be successful in Forever. It doesn’t matter what your background is as Forever does not discriminate against age, sex, religion, ethnicity or education. It’s an equal opportunity and we all have access to this same opportunity. A few years ago I heard this saying which was, ‘The price of discipline weighs ounces, but the price of regret weighs tons’. Please don’t waste this opportunity; it really could change yours and your family’s life, forever.

Remember: you can only achieve Eagle Manager if you are already a Manager so make sure you attend Forever’s new First Steps to Manager (FSTM) training programme. This training will guide you in how to use the FSTM manual, helping you to achieve Manager systematically whilst building a firm foundation. FSTM training will also better equip you for when you train your downline; it’s important that you work within your downline to help your team members reach the Manager milestone as well.

Your monthly update July 2016FOREVER NEWS
PRODUCT EDUCATION VIDEOSWe have released several compliant product education videos on YouTube and we'd like to encourage you to share these across social media and your web platforms. These videos are excellent promotional and educational tools and are available via youtube.com/flpukltd now. More videos will be added soon so make sure you keep checking back.
NEW ADVERTSDid you know that we regularly put new adverts on foreverknowledge.info? These downloadable adverts can be found in the ‘Business’ section under the ‘Business Tools’ tab and we are happy for you to share and use these adverts when you are promoting Forever and its products. We currently have eight adverts relating to our #SummerLoveYourBody social media campaign, product adverts featuring our F.I.T. Ambassadors and general product and recruitment adverts. Printed versions of select designs are also available to purchase from forever.webstore.uk.com. We will continue to update both these sites so make sure you check back regularly.
FOREVER REACHForever Reach is a simple, easy-to-use email marketing tool designed to help foreverknowledge.info subscribers keep in contact with prospects, customers or future business partners. The goal of Forever Reach is to make email marketing simple by offering foreverknowledge.info subscribers access to fully compliant, templated emails that have been written by top Forever Business Owners.
The templates will include a range of retailing and recruitment emails with the option to send out the product and recruitment adverts. The system stores contacts so that FBOs can easily keep track of sent emails, and the list also tells them when and if their contacts have responded. Forever Reach will, in fact, automatically alert the FBO when their customer or prospect has clicked a link in the email. The system can also be set up so that it automatically sends reminder emails to the recipient if they have not responded within a set timeframe. Forever Reach will build brand awareness and loyalty with your contacts in a compliant and effective way. Find out more at foreverknowledge.info/reach.
NEW NUMBERSWe are pleased to announce that three of our departments have been issued with new telephone numbers. Please take note of the new numbers below:
+ Delivery Helpdesk: 01926 626 670
+ Order Line: 01926 626 666
+ New FBO Support: 01926 626 634
We will be updating literature to reflect the changes in due course. Please feel free to promote the changes when necessary.
FOREVER BLOGWe are pleased to announce that Forever now has its own blog. This can be found on the consumer-facing site linked to foreverknowledge.info. All blog posts can be shared across social media so please ensure you start to share relevant articles with your network today.
The new First Steps to Manager training is now available. Find out more on foreverknowledge.info or turn to the What’s On section of this
