orldVentures is so bold and visionary that I am continuously struck by it. During my

20 years in network marketing, I’ve had the privilege of working for three of the largest companies in the industry. Yet, despite their success, this is by far the fastest-moving and most exciting company I have ever been a part of. WorldVentures has something many other companies don’t—heart and soul. There are no traditional metrics to measure these ethereal, yet profound key performance indicators. Add to this our leadership’s bold ambition and vision, and we have the potential to be one of the top players in our industry and beyond.

Founded on the principles of fun, freedom and fulfillment, WorldVentures values its people above its profits. This is one of the secrets of our success. By shifting the focus from chasing revenue to changing lives, we’ve built a loyal base of customers and Representatives who are spreading the word about our company and fueling phenomenal growth. Not to mention, we’re selling a product everyone wants.

The results have been astounding! We run 16 major events and hundreds of regional events a year. We’re on the verge of delivering 100 DreamTrips™ per week, and we’ll soon be in 30 countries. We have a new app, a new tech platform and two new internal businesses underway. If that’s not impressive, I don’t know what is. Underpinning these achievements are product excellence, sustainability and innovation.

What’s even more exciting is we are just getting started. On the horizon is a solidified global brand platform with upgraded brand and style guides, and an agency in Asia to help us translate the brand worldwide. We are moving toward a “glocal” focus as a global entity operating locally.

We’ve also merged our brand, marketing communications and creative functions into an internal agency to support the “glocal” evolution under new leadership by a celebrated brand experience agency specialist. An example of our glocal effort is the launch of 49 versions of the “You Should Be Here™” video, which has been customized and translated for each of our markets and includes DreamTrips of local interest and local leadership testimonials.

Nothing unites global audiences like social media, and our ratings are on par with the top network marketing companies in the world. Given our new campaigns and app expansion plans, including plans to help our Reps and customers easily share the fun, freedom and fulfillment so plentiful in our community, we are on target to becoming a social marketing powerhouse.

With the help of some of the retail world’s best and brightest talent, we are developing and further defining our products, driving value and creating a 360-degree experience for our customers. Stay tuned for more exciting news on DTLocal, e-commerce and more. DreamTrips are now under the direction of the new Travel Products division leader who is structuring our team to deliver best-in-class products and customer experiences. We expect to achieve 100 DreamTrips a week by the fourth quarter, driven by our quality-over-quantity motto. Every part of our 18-step process is being evaluated, enhanced and measured—including strict service-level agreements with our global vendors—to ensure delivery that meets our product and brand standards.

As you can tell, we are on the cusp of a historic shift, and there is no better time than now to be a part of WorldVentures. Partnering with our executives, corporate talent and field leaders, we are on course to become the most inspiring and sustainable direct sales company in the world.

COVER STORY PHOTOGRAPHY BY:IZEHI PHOTOGRAPHY

55

In fact, she’s always found her best success in the company of others. And maybe that’s why, after her nephew approached her about the WorldVentures opportunity nine years ago, Gail called her friend Bobby Cochran, who formerly reported to her at GM but had since retired. It didn’t take much convincing, and the two decided to start a WorldVentures business together, leveraging their combined strengths to build something great. Just like their days at GM, theirs is the perfect blend of personalities. “Everyone who knows Bobby loves him,” Gail says. “And I’m Type A—I never stop working, which can be a strength as well as a weakness. We balance each other out.”

With that spirit of collaboration in mind, Gail says her favorite WorldVentures core value is “We Are One Big Team.” “I’m passionate about it. With that ‘one team’ philosophy, you recognize that everyone brings different skills to the table. When you bring all of those talents together, synergize them, live that philosophy and put it into practice, something incredible happens.”

It’s a philosophy she and Bobby have worked hard to promote throughout their organization, which they refer to as a “cross-line team,” meaning they routinely share ideas and key learnings and help anyone who asks, without expectation of financial gain. While she and Bobby have built an organization of thousands, it’s a close-knit bunch, keeping in touch via conference calls, a team website, and team trips and events. “We train together, work together, acknowledge each other and celebrate together,” Gail says.

Further: “We teach our team to help everyone, regardless of lineage. There’s nothing wrong with a little competition when it’s in the spirit of fun, but unhealthy competition can promote separation. It can be destructive. Long-term, we’re more successful when we embrace the larger WorldVentures team. We let everyone know about our events so if we have people from other teams in states where we have active teams, and the rest of their organizations are somewhere else, they don’t have to be alone. When we help each other, ultimately, the company gains, and I know if the company gains, I gain. Working together as ‘One Big Team’ means everyone wins. Integrity and unity are everything to me.”

She continues: “There are no special privileges for particular individuals or groups here.

WorldVentures welcomes all backgrounds. I was in corporate America for 33 years and I never saw anything that could compare to how this company embraces people of all backgrounds. I can see the commitment of this company to be one team, and I want to instill this value in my team. Everyone has an equal opportunity to realize success. If we can continue to capture that as a company and let it infiltrate throughout the organization, I think we’ll be one of the top companies in the world.”

Gail is keeping that “One Big Team” mantra in mind as she looks ahead to the next five years of her WorldVentures business. Although she continues to work as hard as ever, her end goal may not be what you’d expect.

“I admire people for their success in this company,” she says. “They’re working hard

and helping a lot of people. Many ask me when I’m going to hit Double and Triple IMD, but the truth is that I really have no personal rank or income goals. WorldVentures has enhanced my life so much, and at this point, how much money and how many ‘things’ do I really need? Instead, I’m going to help as many people as I can with this awesome company. That’s my mission. I’m already living my dreams. Within my organization, we’ve got many young people in their 20s and 30s, and they’re looking at another 20 or 30 years of work, at a minimum, working a traditional job. There are people in their 50s and 60s with no hope of retiring in the near future. If I can help them reduce that even by a few years–free them up sooner from a 9-to-5 job–that’s the legacy I want to leave. And I have the right vehicle to do it.”

“With that ‘one team’ philosophy, you recognize

that everyone brings different skills to the

table. When you bring all of those talents together, synergize them, live that

philosophy and put it into practice, something

incredible happens.”

SCOTT AND SHEILA ROSS, INTERNATIONAL MARKETING DIRECTORS

BY FELICIA FULLER

or Scott and Sheila Ross, having a

spiritual base is essential. Like the

root system of a tree, Christianity

anchors them, nourishes them and helps them

withstand the weight of life’s experiences.

As many entrepreneurs like them have

discovered, it is the long term that can make

or break a business. When your work serves

a higher purpose, when you allow others to

experience joy and achieve their dreams, your

accomplishments speak to the heart of who

you are and why you’re here, and can have

lasting effects.

“We are blessed to be a blessing to others. It’s

fulfilling to know that I’ve helped someone

take a vacation or achieve a financial goal,”

Sheila shares.

Scott agrees, adding: “Sheila and I are

passionate about our Christian faith. One of

the things we saw with WorldVentures was

it provided an opportunity to get involved

in people’s lives from all over the world. We

have a non-denominational worship service at

big events and I am honored to participate in

leading those, along with other top IMDs. Before

WorldVentures, I led worship as a layperson

having done men’s ministry for 21 years.”

A MINISTRY OF A DIFFERENT KINDBeing a WorldVentures leader, Scott says, is

ministry of a different kind. WorldVentures’

values-based vision and founding principle

of helping people aligns with core concepts

of ministry, regardless of religion. With

WorldVentures, Scott and Sheila didn’t have

to compromise their values; in fact, the vision

of the company complements their mission

to help others by providing opportunities for

personal and spiritual growth.

“We’ve fallen in love with helping people

bring more clarity and definition to what

they really want in life,” Scott says. “So

many people are adopting the status quo

in our culture and don’t ask the question,

‘Am I fulfilled?’ WorldVentures is a catalyst

because we’re a vacation club; it makes you

ask yourself, ‘Where do I want to go and

what do I want to do before my time is up

in this life?’”

It’s a question Scott and Sheila began asking

themselves six years ago. At the time, Sheila

was a stay-at-home mom and Scott was a

North American sales and operations executive

at a software company, where he earned a

comfortable multiple six-figure income, albeit

with a price.

“I managed employees around the country

and spent an average 90 to 100 hours a week

at work,” he recalls. “We were selling to large

corporations, so I would be in San Francisco

one week and New York the next. I was tired of

traveling and being away from my wife and our

three children.”

Although admired by many for his executive

leadership and tireless work ethic, Scott took

little pleasure in a success that amounted to

missing out on quality time with Sheila and

their children. Reaching the top of the corporate

ladder may have aligned with the world’s

expectations, but it was a lonely and unfulfilling

place, and didn’t include the ministry or the

people who mattered the most to Scott. There

had to be another way.

As if on cue, a fellow church member

introduced the couple to her father, Bob Goris,

who was a WorldVentures Representative living

12

13

in Minnesota. While visiting Dallas, Bob invited Scott

to hear a presentation.

“The initial presentation didn’t impress us, but

shortly after we got exposed to Dr. David Pietsch

and Dan Stammen; that was the game-changer,”

Scott recalls. “I was impressed with David’s story

of replacing his income as a chiropractor with this

business. When I met with Stammen, I got a vision for

the future of the organization and what it would look

like in 10 or 20 years. I told Sheila that this company

was going to help a lot of people with or without us,

and I didn’t want to miss it.”

OPPORTUNITY FROM OBSTACLESScott was intrigued that WorldVentures developed a way

for Reps to improve their quality of life while enjoying

peak experiences around the world with their friends and

family. No doubt about it, Scott was highly successful

in business, but he still saw WorldVentures as a

smarter financial vehicle than the corporate

climb. Opportunities abound in every market

WorldVentures is in, and a progressive city

like Dallas, Texas, was just the place for

Scott and Sheila to begin.

“At the time, there were some

local leaders but no substantive

teams were based in Dallas,”

Scott explains. “I

saw the chance

to come in and

build a huge

organization.”

The Rosses started part time and, by Scott’s assessment “gave it as much

as anyone could.” He continued, “We were laser focused on becoming

financially free. We invited friends to see it and did travel parties and one-

on-ones and two-on-ones.”

Their next order of business was to attend Journey, where they participated

in an intense goal-setting session during the five-day workshop. “We

created these itemized goal cards,” Scott recalls. “That was an amazing

process because we crystalized individually and as a couple our goals. Six

years later, almost every one of our goals has been achieved.”

The couple’s primary goal was an ambitious one—to reach the rank of

International Marketing Director within two years. It took them five.

Timing aside, the bottom line is, they made it. Scott, a founding member

of The John Maxwell Company’s leadership team, also had a goal to

speak on stage before 10,000 people.

“I’ve spoken in front of tens of thousands of people multiple times,” he

says. “I also have a leadership podcast and conduct a web conference

every Wednesday with hundreds of participants. It’s extremely fulfilling.”

AN EMOTIONAL JOURNEYScott and Sheila are both proud and humbled by the success they’ve

achieved. Scott’s collaboration with the executive team to create the first

presentations as well as world-class programs like Vacation Sooner has

benefitted company growth and stability immensely. The contribution has

not gone unnoticed. WorldVentures execs and leadership have the highest

regard for Scott and Sheila’s insight and view them as members of a very

close-knit family. “Scott’s been a valuable partner and is a consummate

strategist and highly analytical problem solver,” says President of

WorldVentures Holdings, Eddie Head. “Yet, despite–using our vernacular–

his ‘green’ perspective, the humanity of our industry is never lost on him.

He has the heart factor and is always thinking about the people impact,

and how we as a corporate team support our Reps and customers.”

Today, Scott and Sheila are setting new goals as their team aims higher. To sharpen their focus,

Scott leads them in leveraging their strengths and overcoming deficiencies.

“We want our people to rank up and realize their dreams. One of our goals is to have all of

our friends become financially free,” he says. “A lot of our short-term goals center around

friends who have become like family. Long term, we want to earn the million-dollar ring

and hit Double IMD.”

Scott’s strategy for building his business is based upon existing, tested

methodologies taught by company leaders, including one-on-ones and two-

on-ones, travel parties and big events. Among the sales tools he uses are the

Advantage program, Living Proof and Vacation Sooner. Scott’s love for his team

and his leadership are extensions of his belief in people, his devotion to God

and his genuine empathy for those who are not living up to their potential.

“One of the things you have to embrace as a leader are people, and people’s

lives can get messy. This is an emotional journey. Most people will have parts

of their personality, including personal inadequacies, exposed for the first

time by this business. People get their feelings hurt and get frustrated. People

blame and get jealous. If one person is having success and someone else is

not winning or winning slower, that can bring out ugliness. Our overall aim

as leaders is to work with people who are willing to grow, change and adapt.

We need people with a champion’s heart who are humble enough to be

beginners. We can’t help everyone; we can only help the willing.”

A HIGHER PURPOSEScott and Sheila ask no more of their team than they’ve given

themselves, so they speak from experience. Trial and error, and

failure and success are part of their story, too. It’s why their team

follows and respects them. At UNITED in April, Scott offered

conference attendees tips on pushing through plateaus.

As he recounted his presentation, he says: “When you hit a wall, it’s

an extremely frustrating place to be. Everyone who has won has been

there. One of the things I said was to know that there is some blessing

that will come out of this process. So fall in love with the process.”

Sheila concurs: “Live the moment that you’re in. A lot of goal-

oriented people have a tendency to focus on the next goal instead of

relishing their current level of achievement and savoring their lives

on a daily basis. We’ve been through the process and have come out

on the other side. I missed out on a lot of satisfaction throughout

16

this process because I was not more purposeful about relishing the

moment. Have fun on the journey.

“If someone could look at our Facebook feed, they wouldn’t believe it.

Five years ago, it was soccer games and people posting what they ate for

breakfast. Now, when you get on our feeds, we have friends all over the

world doing bucket-list things, parasailing on their child’s birthday, sand dune

blasting in Dubai, chartering a yacht in Maui, having shark encounters … once-

in-a-lifetime experiences. It’s hard to fathom. There’s this app called Timehop;

it does something simple but powerful. It shows you what your posts were on

this day back in time—a year ago, two years ago, et cetera.

Almost every day my Timehop has a travel photo in it!”

STEWARDSHIP AND THE GREATEST GIFTS

For the Rosses, the greatest of gifts are their

children—Austin, Addison and Tyler. During

their climb to IMD, they had to suspend

many of their children’s activities. But

that sacrifice is now paying big dividends

in their children’s lives. The couple’s

stewardship has allowed each to flourish

physically, socially, intellectually and

spiritually. And each child embodies

the very best of Scott and Sheila.

“We home school our kids and

have been blessed to take them

around the world,” Scott says.

“We put our daughter in

private voice lessons with a

man who was ‘Phantom of

the Opera’ on Broadway. Our

youngest son is 11, but he’s

a phenomenal filmmaker

with his own MacBook®

and professional movie

editing software. My 16

year-old is

chomping at

the bit to be a

WorldVentures

Rep and does not understand why you

have to be 18 to start. He’s also involved in

musical composition, politics, philosophy

and apologetics. For the past three years,

he’s gone to iGovern—a summer camp run by

Generation Joshua, which is an organization

focused on developing Christian leaders in

the political arena. My kids each have very

significant gifts and it’s clear what God’s

going to do with them.”

Sheila and Scott are able to experience more,

give more and live more closely aligned

with fulfilling a basic tenet of their faith—to

demonstrate good stewardship of their gifts by

pouring them into others.

“I live my life by the idea of stewardship

and beginning with the end in mind,” Scott

explains. “I’m going to stand before my

Savior one day and give an account of my

life. When I consider this, I think of the

parable of the talents. In this story, three

servants received talents (literally, ‘money’

by Biblical definition) from their master.

The first two servants invested and doubled

their talents, but the third one buried his out

of fear and lack of faith. When the master

returned, he rewarded the first two servants

but cast the latter into outer darkness. This

is my takeaway from this: A big part of living

a righteous life means maximizing and

multiplying your talents and being a steward

of your time, gifts and resources.”

Thanks to their values-based leadership,

today Sheila and Scott are stewards to

thousands of Reps worldwide. They live

each day with gratitude for the journey and

a willingness to share their focus and faith

with a global family that is changing the

world one story at a time.

By the time we graduate from high school, we have spent somewhere in the neighborhood of 15,000 hours

in a classroom. That’s a long time! During those hours, we become programmed in many ways. One of the ways is that we are expected to get 90 percent or better on our work if we are going to rise to the top. Expecting to be successful is important, but when you are trying to do something remarkable, you are never going to succeed 90 percent of the time.

Professional sports scouts have to look at their job in a very different way. Their job is to look at hundreds of prospects to find a handful of great players who can have a major impact on their team. They don’t score 90 percent. They would be thrilled to have 10 percent of the players they scout become great players. The norm would be more like 1 percent.

They don’t get discouraged when they go to a game to watch a player and he is not the superstar the scout had hoped. They simply go scout another player at another game. They know that it’s rare to find true greatness.

When their careers are over, if they discovered three to four exceptional players,

they will be held in the highest esteem by their colleagues. Many of them would actually be famous for simply scouting one future great.

When you become a Representative with WorldVentures, we teach you that you are sorting, not selling. That is critical when you are introducing prospects to the opportunity. It’s pointless to “sell” someone on becoming a Rep if they are not excited to be one.

But the sorting doesn’t stop there! The next sort is to see who takes action to build their customer base and team. Unfortunately, many new Reps never take that step, so you have to determine who is willing to take action and who is not. The third sort is to see who takes action. How many of them start really leading? How many take the initiative and become independent of you? The fourth and final sort is to see who will excel. Who has the passion and the talent to be a superstar with us?

As you can imagine, every time you do another sort, the numbers dwindle. If you sign up 50 Reps, 20 take action. Of those 20, only five may become true leaders. And of those five, maybe only one will become a superstar!

Scouts have to be honest when evaluating talent. They can’t want it more for the player than the player wants it for themselves. Many players with talent have a bad attitude. Others have a great attitude but marginal talent. It’s very rare to find a player with both.

That’s the kind of math that a professional sports scout understands. There are many good players, and even a fair amount of great ones, but there are only a handful of game changers. A great scout looks at everyone, but their true success comes from sorting through large numbers of players to find two to three superstars!

So, stop trying to turn every Rep on your team into an Eric Grzybowski or a Bethany Webster. Know that players like that are very few and far between, and to have a few of those players on your team, you have to go through a large number of average players.

There is not an exact number, and there is no guarantee you will even find them, but when you make the numbers your friend, you may just end up finding enough game changers to create a championship dynasty!

The four-minute presentation is designed to work for any Representative, regardless of how much time you have. It all begins with your posture and how you present the company as well as how you entice the potential prospect or customer.

Here’s how the four-minute presentation works:

On a plain sheet of paper, draw two lines parallel to one another. Afterward, ask your customer if they’ve heard of Sam’s Club or Costco and why they know about either company. Usually the customer will mention their discounted prices on items. This is your greenlight to ask, “Wouldn’t it be cool if you could have that same concept with travel?” And then say, “We’ve got it; it’s called DreamTrips. Here’s what it is.” And explain the product. Close this segment by saying, “If those prices were true, would you buy that?” After that, write “DT” in the middle of the lines, circle it and say, “You’re in on that one.”

Go on to the next product and ask if they ever book their own travel on one of those various booking websites. Then ask, “Wouldn’t it be cool if you could earn commission for the trip you book if somebody else booked on your website?” This is your cue to explain Rovia™, which is similar to other booking and travel websites, but is actually owned, operated and created by WorldVentures. You need to tease other benefits, including vacation travel packages and concierge services. Then follow

up with the next question: “If you paid for a one-time membership as well as a monthly fee, which allows you to earn commission, would you do it?” Then write “Rovia” in the middle of the lines, circle it and say, “You’re in on that benefit as well.”

Finally, present the advantages of earning residual income by asking, “Wouldn’t it be cool if you could sell those products and every time you sold that product you could make commission?” Then dive immediately into explaining the WorldVentures business system, which states that every time you sell a product, you make direct commission. I encourage you to use the real estate broker and agents example to explain the business system. For instance, if you’re the broker, you have agents underneath you who give you a portion of their sales when they close a deal. The same concept works at WorldVentures in that every time somebody you bring in sells a product, you make commission.

After that, flip the piece of paper over, which shows an application so the potential prospect can become a new customer or Rep. If they ask for more information, offer to take them out to lunch to show them additional details.

The key is to fulfill the main objective, which is to under-sell and over-deliver. When a new customer independently searches DreamTrips.com, he is able to see the products firsthand and explore what WorldVentures offers to the direct-selling travel industry.

Time is a hot commodity that we are all constantly trying to find more of. Whether you’re in pursuit of time to strengthen your

business, create more family memories, earn residual income or a combination of all three, I’ve mastered the ideal technique to add customers and Representatives daily.

“It all begins with your posture and how you present the company as well as entice the potential prospect. “

HIGH L IFECreating Your

||| BY DERRON WALKER

I am a bottomless pit of passion! I’m always telling people, “If you need some, borrow mine!” I believe passion is contagious. When I came to WorldVentures, I didn’t really know how to build this

business. I just knew how to lead with my heart and how to sincerely help somebody else. I lead with and I follow my heart—that’s what drew me to WorldVentures.

This company is moving in a direction that excites me, and I have a deep trust for its leaders. They are leading where I want to go. So, in everything I do, I follow the vision of WorldVentures. I believe in and practice the 10 Core Values. I follow my personal values as well because it is vital to have your own values in your life and in business. When people follow you, they follow your belief, they follow your vision and they follow your values. Following my values drew me to WorldVentures, which makes me a strong leader. I coach my team on a set of values that makes us a powerful force.

FOLLOW THE HIGH LIFEValues pave the way to success, so my team follows the HIGH Life. That means act with Honesty, Integrity, Gratitude and Humility. You need all four aspects of the HIGH Life to win in life. So, how do we put these values into practice? I like to tell people that everyone in this business and in your life is walking around with two buckets. One bucket is full of water and the other is full of gasoline. You have the choice of which you want to pour on any given situation.

I tell my team if someone comes up to you to gossip about a travel party and you join in, you just poured gasoline on a situation that you needed to pour water on. You need to douse the flame of ill talk with a statement as simple as, “I think they are a great person and I’m not going to talk about them that way.” Negativity is just as contagious as passion; you have to have tools to put it out. If someone on my team becomes a Senior Representative, you know I’m going to pour gasoline on that because positive energy on your team will create momentum when you follow the HIGH Life. I tell my team that we need to police each other in a positive manner. We edify each other and speak with positivity because what you do today pays you tomorrow.

KEEP YOUR EYES ON THE PRIZEI was listening to an audio of Byron Schrag where he said, “The wave is coming. It doesn’t matter if you’re in a big boat or a small boat. When the wave comes, you will rise, but if you are not in a boat, you will drown.” We really come together as a team at travel parties by practicing the principles of the HIGH Life. Using

the analogy of passing an imaginary basketball, when we are in the room, we are a team, and we are strongest when we act as a force. There are going to be bad apples at your travel parties. There are going to be people who just don’t get it, and there will be people married to a negative mindset, so we pass the imaginary basketball, keeping our eyes on the prize.

Imagine a real basketball is being passed at a travel party and you look at your phone, meanwhile someone passes you the ball. What happens? If you’re not paying attention, it hurts you and the team. So we all stay present and attentive. During testimonies, we keep our statements to 30 seconds. I say, “My name is Derron Walker. I am a professional drummer. I first heard of WorldVentures at 2:30 a.m. two and a half years ago. It has been a blessing in my life. Come play with us.” In my testimonial, I speak with brevity and honesty and don’t make it into the “talk about me” show.

On my team there is no talking during presentations. This edifies the presenter and shows respect. Edification is my favorite part of the business; it’s just fun to speak highly of someone else. At travel parties, Representatives wear red name tags and the guests wear blue. My team doesn’t talk to each other; we look for someone with a blue name tag and make them feel comfortable. Have fun! It’s not a travel job, it’s a travel PARTY! Exude positive energy, pay attention and laugh! They are going to catch fire if you are on fire; that’s what happens.

SIGNIFICANCE AND FREEDOMI was busy before WorldVentures, juggling life, family and work, wondering what I could do to make my dreams a reality. To make this business work, you have to get into the right mindset. A lot of people will look at where they are in business and be dissatisfied, then blame the business. I bet if you’re not doing as well as you want to in business, you’re probably not doing things as well as you want to in your life in general. I am humbled to look at the areas where I need to learn and grow.

This business is always teaching me. We talk about the why of what we do. For me, the reasons are significance and freedom. Significance is creating momentum and acting with integrity to create growth that reaches beyond my direct benefit. The idea of generating growth and changing lives fires me up! Before WorldVentures, I felt so little freedom in my work. I was a number. Now I am a successful person. I show people how to follow where I am going.

7Phases of MasteryA t the 2013 Momentum

in Tennessee, leader of leaders Byron Schrag was

training, and I was sitting in the front row, and he said, “Some of you are sitting on the sidelines. This ain’t the time to be sitting on the sidelines. It’s time to get back in the game. The people need you.”

That night I went back and made a decision to get back in the game—to remember why and how we started. I knew top Representatives have certain things they’ve done for years and years, so my wife, Yvette, and I went back to the drawing board and realized their process was the Seven Phases of Mastery.

1Phase One is your first seven days with WorldVentures. During this time, you want to expose your hot market, your inner circle. That’s your top 20 people who know you best and trust you most. Use all the tools that we teach (four-step invite, online, PowerPoint, travel parties). It’s all about getting in the right mindset and exposing those first 20 people.

2 Phase Two involves what we call your warm market. In the next two to three weeks, you have your list of at least 150 people, and you personally expose at least 40. That’s 10 exposures a week, minimum. You’re improving your skills, building confidence, and learning additional ways of inviting, selling the product and promoting events.

3Phase Three involves your acquaintances, people you talk to every once in a while or maybe not at all. In your next four to eight weeks, you’re gaining at least 60 more personal exposures. You’re starting to become a great inviter because you’re practicing over and over. You also have some new people on your team, and you’re serving as their third-party expert for two-on-ones and three-way calls.

Phases of Mastery4

Success in direct sales is about your new market, the place you reach when you get through your warm market. There are 7 billion people in the world, and last time I checked, we are a global company. In this phase, you become a master prospector. You can literally turn somebody you met today into a friend and customer, exposing them within the next 48-72 hours. You’re making your living list, so when you meet somebody, you add them to your list. You’ll never run out of people to talk to. Here’s one thing I had to learn the hard way: The people you start with won’t necessarily be the people you end with. Yvette and I have more than 350 personals in this business, and most of them have come from the new market.

5When you stay the course, in Phase Five, you see new results. Those people who told you “no” in the beginning are watching what you’re doing. And many times, they find out through social media channels. The challenge for most people is they never get to this phase because they quit after Phase Three. Sometimes those friends and family members who said “no” are testing you just to see how serious you are. Nobody wants to get involved in a business with someone who is going to be there for one week and then quit.

6Our training is the best you can receive in the world. One of the keys is getting your team to come to the training. You are no longer looking for leaders in Phase Six. You become the leader, and now you start attracting the leaders on your team. You start attracting influential people who have large networks, and suddenly they start showing up on your team. But here’s the real secret sauce: When you go through all six phases and you want to sustain your lifestyle, you’ve got to remember Phase Seven.

7Go back to Phase One and repeat it all over again.

Do you still have the same friends you had 10 years ago today? A lot of us make new friends, and so we have a new list. Yvette and I have gone through these seven phases at least five times in the last eight years. It hit me when Byron was saying that that’s what we need to do: When you do what you did in the beginning, there will never be an end. This isn’t Hollywood where you can “take two.” You’ve got one shot in this life. Are you becoming the best you can be?

The

Connection Between Values and Long-term Success

||| BY MUFFY BRANDT

Albert Einstein famously said, “Try to become not a man of success, but try rather to become a man

of value.” Every day, we navigate life’s intricate combination of interactions,

goals, events, struggles, accomplishments and relationships, all the while striving

for success. And while the definition of success is unique to each of us, it can only

be lasting when born from an allegiance to values. WorldVentures’ core values connect

deeply with the complexity of life, the need for a sense of purpose, experiences

of joy and belonging, discovery, stability and growth.

Living by the core values provides the opportunity to combine work and play

while creating long-term success. The world is full of products and services

marketed to help ease stress, but unlike other careers, WorldVentures not only

encourages integrating more fun, freedom and fulfillment into everything we do,

it’s the first core value! Stress makes tasks harder and less appealing, and wreaks

havoc on your body. By giving yourself license to have more fun in whatever you

do, every aspect of your work and life will thrive. Belonging has broad psychological

appeal. Remember that we are One Big Team, fostering partnership and

co-creation—a value that contributes to levity and security.

In the face of short-term challenges, long-term goals can be stabilizing. In his book

“The Unheavenly City,” Harvard University Political Scientist Dr. Edward Banfield

describes his studies on setting priorities and success. He concluded that one of the

major reasons for success was attributed to a long-term perspective. The core values are

rooted in the long term, promoting tasks, positioning challenges and embracing the

inevitability of change. When we act with trust and are ourselves trustworthy, we

find stability and peace of mind. Similarly, delivering and promoting excellence are

outlooks for invested action. When we think long term, our successes are long term.

The outlook that “problems are only challenges looking for answers” rejects

a defeatist mindset and sees obstacles as temporary on the path to a greater

objective. When we imagine new possibilities, expecting and embracing

change, we are more flexible and adept. When we act with love, harmony, peace and

compassion while looking for constructive lessons in personal experiences, we

embody the core values and fortify our sustainability and long-term success.

W orldVentures can write so many unique and unforgettable chapters in your life. The most meaningful

story you’ll ever tell is the one that shares your personal journey—why you joined, how you got here, where you’ve been, what you’re doing and where you’re going. It’s the story that, in one snapshot, illustrates why you’re traveling your life’s journey on the WorldVentures path. If you haven’t taken the time to write your story, now is the time to put pen to paper.

Do you realize the impact you can have on others? As you gather your thoughts, recall your successes and your failures, because they made you who you are today. Don’t leave out the obstacles; those details will allow people to relate to you and trust you. This isn’t an easy business. Overcoming rejection is challenging, perseverance is challenging, remaining optimistic and hopeful and passionate is challenging, but every day you rise to the challenge, and so can they. Set the expectation that success doesn’t happen overnight, but with gumption and determination, you can get there—and the rewards are beyond measure, heightening your perspective of the world, not to mention your emotional awareness and social responsibility.

Include details about your life before WorldVentures. How were you introduced to the product and business and what moved you to say “yes”? “Moved” is the opportune word here because this is an emotional journey. If you promote it solely as a financial way out, you’re not seeing the big picture. This company changes lives. What has it changed in yours? What is your “why”—the thing that is closest to your heart that gets you out of bed in the morning? What moves you to see further and do more?

As you write your story, communicate the arc of your experience. What were your early days like, and how were you able to press on? How did you develop a team? This can require a shift in mindset as you ask others to view themselves through the lens of leadership, often for the first time. How have you inspired your team to overcome their own obstacles? Which trainings inspired you? Who are your mentors?

Where did you travel on your first DreamTrip and what kind of impression did it make on you? What are some of your proudest achievements and toughest challenges? What have you seen in the world and in this

business that have changed your life? If you’ve participated in a WorldVentures Foundation VolunTour or service excursion, what did that mean to you and what did you learn? What’s your vision for the future and your team’s future? No person is an island, and this business drives that point home, day in and day out. We’re all in this together. The only way to fulfill your dreams is if you take others with you. Cultivate awareness and authenticity on your team. Discuss the impact of cooperation and the importance of community, of being there for others, of teaching and learning from your team, and of becoming the person you are today through the process. If you could tell the person standing in front of you just one thing about what WorldVentures could bring to his or her life, what would it be?

When you present the WorldVentures lifestyle, keep in mind that it’s a gift. That person sitting in front of you could very well be mired in debt, working long hours and unable to afford a vacation. He or she might be searching for a way to make a difference in this world and to be more present in life. You’ve chosen a powerful calling for your life. Now it’s time to help others view their lives through the WorldVentures lens.

Take a DreamTripIf you chose this path because you wanted more out of life–more fun, more opportunity to live your life to the fullest–shouldn’t you be taking advantage of every opportunity to do just that? At WorldVentures, we like to say that to have more, we must do more. It’s a valuable mantra, but it’s easy to get caught up in the doing and neglect the having. Fortunately, the solution to striking a balance between the two is right under your nose. When was the last time you took a DreamTrip?

Deep focus and determination are integral to building your business, but so is your sense of fulfillment. Happiness can significantly raise your productivity level and, for many people, there’s no greater joy than the idea of seeing and experiencing the world while building amazing memories with family and friends.

Not only do you get to enjoy the excitement and wonder of exploring a new place, but you have the opportunity to grow personally as well. Imagine how your worldview will shift when you expose yourself to new cultures with deep, rich histories and diverse groups

of people. Peak life experiences like these will help you learn more about yourself and the world.

Explore the ProductAside from personal growth, taking a DreamTrip opens up many new avenues for your business to thrive. By immersing yourself in this community, you’ll be able to truly understand the product you spend time pitching to others. And what better way to bolster your sales message than to say you’ve experienced all it has to offer firsthand? Instead of telling someone that you guess riding an elephant in Thailand would be a good experience, you would be able to describe how rough the animal’s skin felt to the touch, and how surprised you were that such a large creature moved so gracefully beneath you.

Though it might sound too good to be true, it’s entirely possible to grow your business just by taking a vacation. When you embark on a DreamTrip, you’ll be traveling with other DreamTrips Members who are also looking for ways to enhance their lives. They’re on a DreamTrip, aren’t they? By sharing that experience with

them, you’re making a connection neither of you will forget. It’s an opportunity to build relationships with like-minded people who can impact your life for the better while witnessing something truly amazing.

Take an African Safari For example, you could set out on an African safari this December. On this particular DreamTrip, you would spend four nights on Lake Kariba in Matabeleland North, Zimbabwe, getting up close and personal with some of the bushland’s most magnificent wildlife during the day and spending your evenings tucked comfortably away at a luxurious lakeside resort. You could tell future members about the marvel of Victoria Falls and what it was like to be within a stone’s throw of lions, hippos, giraffes and more.

What are you waiting for? If you started your business because you’re seeking more abundance, a DreamTrip is the perfect place to start. There’s no better way to reap the rewards of your hard work than to show belief in the product you’re selling.

The Hero in You/// BY CHANCELLOR PAGE

We are all in flux. We all face obstacles that we must overcome to realize our significance, reinvent ourselves and emerge anew. We are all heroes. And whether it’s this triumph of character that allows us to appreciate the achievement of others, or whether we intuitively know, one thing’s for certain: We are moved by the magnitude of spirit. So, when we encounter an original whose talent unmoors expectations, whose heart unites communities and shapes generations, whose rise from adversity augments his acclaim, we are lifted vicariously and are never the same.

Muhammad Ali’s storied career is as much about the spirit of compassion as it is about his legacy as professional boxing’s undisputed heavyweight champion of the

world. While Muhammad’s clout and finesse eviscerated opponents in the ring, his goodwill out of it is the capstone to his glory. His valiant humanitarian efforts with his wife Lonnie have promoted understanding, freedom and dignity for three decades. “Boxing was just a means to introduce me to the world,” Muhammad has said.

As a 10-year-old, Basketball Hall of Famer Nancy Lieberman was dazzled by Muhammad’s confidence and charisma. “I was watching TV,” Nancy recalled, “and this man came on and said, ‘I’m the champion of the world. I beat Joe Frazier like I beat George Foreman like I beat Sonny Liston back in 1964. I am the greatest of all time.’ I was mesmerized and I walked into the

kitchen and looked at my mother and said, ‘I’m going to make history. I’m going to be the greatest basketball player ever. I’m going to be the greatest of all time.’”

Nancy’s professional career was fueled by Muhammad’s passion of character. She accomplished everything she set her mind to, on and off the court. The parallels between the two athletes are striking. “Both of them came from very meager beginnings,” Lonnie said. “They didn’t have much, but they used what they had. Nancy had a basketball, and Muhammad had his hands and a pair of gloves. They made themselves into something with just those materials. It wasn’t anything fancy, but they made a life for themselves and they’ve affected the lives of so many.”

For 35 years, Nancy has held free clinics and basketball camps to build confidence and self-worth in children in Dallas/Ft. Worth. Since 2010, Nancy’s non-profit and engine for service, The Nancy Lieberman Foundation, has collaborated with the WorldVentures Foundation to create DreamCourts—safe places to play for boys and girls in underprivileged communities across the United States. To date, 17 DreamCourts have been constructed. The most recent was established at the Harry & Sandy Rosenzweig Branch of The Boys & Girls Clubs of Metro Phoenix, and named in honor of Muhammad and Lonnie Ali.

“I’m humbled,” Lonnie said during the DreamCourt unveiling. “To have the opportunity to affect a child’s life in this community and in any community is a gift. Nancy Lieberman has given us this opportunity, and even though our name is on here, it’s really about the lessons that Nancy has learned in her life growing up and the lessons Muhammad has learned growing up. This court gives children an opportunity to come together and make friendships for life. There will be a lot of life lessons learned here—teamwork, how to solve differences, conflict resolution, how to work together, how to make and abide by rules. So many times, kids don’t get that free play or structure. And it’s with free play that they learn how to make decisions and how to handle things. This is a great place for kids, and a great place to be able to nurture

them and give them a safe haven to come to after school and during the summer hours.”

At the DreamCourt commemoration in Phoenix, Nancy addressed the children in attendance. “We all have our story about how we came to this point in time. I was blessed to not have my father at home; to not have lights, to not have heat and to be one grandparent away from food stamps. I was blessed. I was not a victim. I was a victor. Muhammad taught me to be fearless in everything that I do in life. He taught me to believe in me. He gave me a will to win. I will challenge you like he challenged me. There’s going to be a lot of people in life who will tell you what you can’t be; how you look different or how you’re white or you’re black; you’re a girl, you’re a boy, you’re young, you’re old. There’s going to be so much thrown at you. But if you want something, you have to believe in you. You have to love you and have conviction in what you want to be.”

“This is part of the Ali legacy,” Lonnie added. “It’s part of the Lieberman legacy. And we are so thankful and blessed to have people in our lives like Nancy Lieberman and the WorldVentures Foundation.”

It is with belief and gratitude that so many WorldVentures Representatives have joined Nancy Lieberman and the WorldVentures Foundation to follow the lead of Muhammad and Lonnie Ali.

The WorldVentures Foundation invites you on this journey to mend communities.

Between what we know and what we contribute, we take responsibility and

emerge with the compassion and conviction to foster the spirit of the world, and to

discover the hero within.

Local Attraction

Since joining WorldVentures, Eric Allen has watched many Reps venture far beyond their local areas and experience

huge success and wealth. But for him recently, the key to achieving International Marketing Director has been staying local. Really local. As in, his home state of Indiana, where he lives in Whitestown, a small city about 25 miles from Indianapolis. That’s where the 38-year-old former college basketball coach has been focusing his attention, and it’s paid off big-time.

Between finding new customers and leading by example, Eric has shown that staying close to home can yield huge results.

“I found there’s a lot of untapped potential just by staying close to home,” Eric says.

Eric has long been highly self-motivated in WorldVentures, and he’s been passing that motivation along to more than just his team. His four children are all

aware of WorldVentures, with 12-year-old Bryce the most interested.

“I really work hard so I can leave a legacy for future generations of my family,” Eric says. “Bryce is starting to notice a lot of things about my lifestyle, about how his dad is more present than most of his friends’ dads, and how great that is. He wants to be a part of this someday.”

Part of Eric’s success has been his ability to build trust and show transparency in his WV business. He says he does that by following the Golden Rule, and also by answering every question he gets openly and honestly.

“I’ve been fortunate to attract high quality, transparent people on my team,” Eric says. “If you set unrealistic expectations on what people can expect, you don’t attract the right kinds of people you want to be in business with.”

Eric says he has seen people in direct sales promise the moon and then face disappointed new acquaintances. Instead, he combats skepticism with open-mindedness.

“I’m not trying to beg or promise anyone anything to come join us,” Eric says. “There are obviously people who have been turned off to direct selling, and some of them won’t be interested in whatever you have to say. I’m a firm believer that closed minds don’t get fed. I’m looking for positive people everywhere.”

Eric believes that the company’s core values create an environment of trust, and his track record aligns with the authenticity and contribution that has put WorldVentures on the map.

He continues to build, brick upon brick, the foundation of fun, freedom and fulfillment for future generations, worldwide and especially those who have joined him close to home.

When Randy Webb looks back on the journey to International Marketing Director, one of his favorite stories to tell is about “breaking bread”

with a family in Little Rock, Arkansas. It was a brand-new market, and the Representative who started it was the sign-up of a sign-up of a sign-up, but Randy could see something special about this Representative, this family.

But before we get into that story, there’s something you should know about Randy and his wife, Wanda: They have no patience for disingenuous leaders or anyone who will step over other people to achieve their goals. Fourteen years in the military as a pilot has imbued Randy, and Wanda for that matter, with the ability to size up a leader’s integrity at a glance.

And when IMD Eric Grzybowski sat Randy and Wanda down at their first in-person meeting and envisioned, “You guys

are going to be IMDs in WorldVentures,” the Webbs knew they were staring into the eyes of a man they could follow.

Wanda recalls: “Everything about him from his head to his toes, everything in his body, his posture, the way he said it, the way he blinked when he said it, let me know he was serious.”

Eric saw potential in the Webbs and committed to help them. It’s that commitment to treating each teammate as the person they can become, instead of the person they are in that moment, that put Randy in Little Rock, Arkansas, sitting at a kitchen table surrounded by a family that was open to the WorldVentures lifestyle.

TREATING PEOPLE RIGHTRandy was in that kitchen because of Anaas Hobbs. Anaas had already shown his commitment to

WorldVentures, driving hours and hours just to attend a Regional Training in Dallas, and then hours more to a special presentation by Dr. David Pietsch. Anaas now needed help breaking open the Little Rock market.

As Randy tells it, “We did the presentation and everything. People signed up, but the biggest part of that visit was sitting at their kitchen table with the entire family. We just talked about the vision, and I was fully transparent with them about where I was, who I was. Kinda told some secrets of my life, what I wanted out of WorldVentures.” It was an emotional conversation and the key to developing a sustainable relationship with Anaas and his family.

Wanda chimes in, “If you ask anyone on our team who works directly with us, I think they would consider us friends before they would consider us mentors. And that’s

a goal; not because we strive to be liked by everyone, but we strive to treat people right. Even if they never put a soul in our business, some people need WorldVentures not for income; they need it for a healthy, social, positive life. And if we treat them as outcasts because we can’t build a team with them, we’re missing it.”

CHASING THE DREAMAs driven as Randy and Wanda were to reach IMD and create the lifestyle they’ve been dreaming about, their vision is bigger—as big as the team they’ve built, “We’ve set the bar high for ourselves, and we’ve also fallen in love with the stories on our team,” Randy says. “And if you start thinking about the people on your team, there’s never a finish line.”

Good thing for Randy and Wanda, WorldVentures will always be One Big Team.

Pillars of Leadership/// BY PAIGE RODGES

What happens when you make a career bettering the lives of others at the expense of your

own? That’s where Buffy Chang and her husband Howie Sun were before they found WorldVentures. Howie, a third-generation acupuncturist, worked as a physician to treat and remedy pain for his patients while he and Buffy struggled to keep up with the demands of expanding their clinic.

Buffy’s world travels started early. Growing up in Taiwan, she and her mother would take yearly international vacations. Buffy developed a passion for travel, a love of other cultures and skills as a linguist. These experiences would lay the groundwork for her future opportunities at WorldVentures as an International Marketing Director.

Buffy and her husband accomplished all they set out to do in their careers; they were running a successful and lucrative acupuncture clinic in Seattle, Washington. “Where will we be in 20 or 30 years?” they asked. From the outside, they had

a life others envied. In reality, they were tired from promoting their business and only seeing their children long enough to put them to bed at night.

The architect who built Buffy and Howie’s acupuncture clinic was a Facebook friend. They began to notice pictures posted of his family vacations. Even their children were traveling and they always posted photos with a blue banner that read, “You Should Be Here!” They wanted to find out how this life was possible, but it would take more than a year before Buffy and Howie were ready to jump in.

“We had no direct sales experience to start out with. I was afraid of sharing this opportunity with friends at the beginning,” Buffy says. They sold their clinic, dissolved other income streams and focused on WorldVentures full time. And after two years in the business, Buffy and Howie increased their income, the time they spent traveling with their children and the opportunities to make friends and support loved ones.

“WorldVentures has given me the opportunity to inspire people and give them hope,” Buffy continues. “I want to be an advocate for courage, calling people to step out of their comfort zones and to allow them to make a dent in the universe. We all deserve better, but people are too afraid. I want to be a living example of WorldVentures’ core values, and be contagious about it!”

Buffy identifies with the core values of honesty and integrity. These are the pillars by which she leads her team. She doesn’t believe in hype or selling the WorldVentures lifestyle by making promises: “WorldVentures is good enough. We share it with passion and honesty.”

As Buffy and Howie move toward making their personal goals of traveling, improving the lives of family members and building their oceanfront dream home a reality, they’re expanding their business. They’ve traveled the world and are using past experiences to enrich their business today. They’re earning more than enough for themselves and enough to give back and make a difference in the world.

By age 5, South Florida-native Melanie Levitz was being raised by just her mother, who was originally from

Israel. She’d weekend with her father, who hailed from upstate New York. Both parents were extremely independent, and Levitz knew she’d inherited that trait. Growing up around arguments and drug addiction, Levitz quickly decided what she didn’t want in life.

“My sister was born when I was 14, and I had to become a second mother to her, as her father was not in the picture,” Melanie recalls. “I realized that I wanted to become

the inspiration for her to look up to, and at that point I decided to enroll in the Junior Reserve Officer Training Corps in high school. While attending, I knew that the military would be my route for success and to travel the world—fulfilling a dream of mine.”

After high school, Melanie joined the U.S. Air Force, specializing in Aviation Resource Management. “The military taught me how to be a leader and a supervisor,” she says of her 12 years serving her country. “I experienced a taste of what it’s like to travel and to live among different cultures. The structure I was taught in the Air Force prepared my mindset to follow direction. In WorldVentures, we always teach ‘If you want what someone has, just go do what they did.’ I always asked questions and looked for guidance on how to improve and become great.”

Mission accomplished. After five years with WorldVentures, Melanie has finally achieved a National Marketing Director position. “It’s a humbling experience knowing that

friends who’ve joined and locked arms with me believed not only in me but in themselves to win,” she says. “They’re becoming such great leaders and creating many more great leaders on their teams. No one becomes successful alone. When you help others achieve their dreams, yours comes along with it. I believe when you do the right thing all the time, God will provide. I just thank WorldVentures, Wayne Nugent and everyone who never gave up on their dreams so that we can live ours as well.”

Melanie believes the key to her WV success has been treating it as a full-time business. “What business do you know that opens every other day or once a week?” she challenges. “Imagine you joined and it cost $100,000. Treat it like a business and the income will come. Stay consistent! And, more importantly, never quit! As Wayne Gretzky said, ‘You miss 100 percent of the shots you don’t take.’ If you really think about how simple this concept is and just do it over and over again until you win, all your dreams can become a reality.”

“I just thank WorldVentures, Wayne Nugent and everyone who never gave up on their dreams so that we can live ours as well.”

There’s more than a semantic distinction between a coach and a leader, according to WorldVentures National Marketing

Director Jonathan Henderson. And he, of all people, should know. After all, he’s been both his entire adult life—at home, on the baseball field and in the boardroom. But while coaches and leaders leverage their knowledge to guide and instruct, it’s the latter group that truly inspires.

“As a coach, your players have to do what you tell them, whether they like it (or you) or not,” Jonathan says. “In WorldVentures, you have to get people to follow you. That requires leading by example.”

Influence, vision and trust are the embodiment of that example—influence to amass the right team, vision to plot a viable strategy and trust to maintain team momentum in the face of possible defeat. Jonathan had already begun honing these traits as an investor and entrepreneur in multiple industries, including consulting, online technology and even baseball training. But it wasn’t until he joined WorldVentures that his leadership potential kicked into high gear, and training was the nexus.

“I tell everyone, WorldVentures is a personal development company disguised as a travel company,” he explains. “The training is what

keeps me involved. By being part of it, I’m helping others become their best selves. It’s also allowed me to become the person I was meant to be. The fifth company I started was a baseball training center, so I’ve always been a coach, but WorldVentures allows me to reach people at another level.”

Jonathan and his wife, Julie, were introduced to WorldVentures three years ago at the invitation of a friend. Already successful in their own right, given Jonathan’s entrepreneurial conquests and Julie’s retirement income as a dental hygienist, they weren’t seeking another business opportunity. But the idea of saving on travel appealed to their stewardship and sense of adventure.

“I’m a very open-minded person, so I was amenable to at least looking at it,”

SETTING THE EXAMPLE/// BY FELICIA FULLER

Jonathan recalls. “I understood the concept of saving money. I thought I would just refer the product to four people and get my fee waived. Then I started thinking, ‘I should do this as a business.’”

His instincts were on point. Today, he and Julie are on the cusp of hitting International Marketing Director—a goal they aim to achieve before the North American installment of A View from the Edge in October this year. Their long-term target is Triple IMD, something Jonathan likens to “lightening striking three times in the same place”—rare but conceivable. Of all their achievements, the couple counts WorldVentures among

the most rewarding, professionally and personally. And as their star has risen, so has the number of people they’ve inspired, empowered and assisted along the way. Not least among them are their children: 16-year-old Elijah and 15-year-old Grace.

“WorldVentures has been the best thing that’s ever happened to our family, especially my daughter,” Jonathan shares. “My daughter accompanied me to national training events at age 14. She was so shy and reserved back then. Now she’s one of the most outgoing people you’d ever meet. My son is a competitor … playing baseball on a national level and being recruited by universities at age 16.

“This company is making an impact on a lot of people’s lives in many ways beyond the monetary. We build people and I love that.”

High school sweethearts Rudy and Salina Atilano are no strangers to hard work. They married young and spent the next 14 years building

a family and immensely successful careers from the ground up. They created a lovely life for themselves, but the daily grind required to maintain it was starting to wear on them both. “I remember standing on our back porch, watching our children play, and wanting more,” Salina says. They were searching for more time to spend with their kids and more freedom to enjoy life’s blessings.

The opportunity came to Rudy in 2012 when a client told him about WorldVentures, but Rudy wasn’t sure it was the right time. However, fate was persistent. Three months later, the opportunity came to him again in the form of a Facebook event invitation touting free pizza and drinks. He decided it was worth a look. “I thought it could be like a date night!” Rudy jokes.

That evening out turned into the deal of a lifetime. The duo started their business by devoting 30 minutes of every evening to making calls and setting up presentation appointments, but it was clear that they would need to do more to achieve more. “It wasn’t until BootCamp that the switch really flipped,” Salina says. Under the expert care of Scott Ross, the Atilanos developed a tried-and-true system for success and haven’t looked back since.

Salina attributes much of their success to treating every person on their team like family and building up their confidence and trust. “We remember exactly what starting out was like,” Salina says. “We’re honest about what it was like to start out and how we overcame obstacles. We are all equals in this business.” Because of Salina and Rudy’s leadership and heart, their team has grown in leaps and bounds in three years, allowing them to enjoy life and spend more time with their kids.

Regional Marketing Director Nathaniel Stallworth has always found strength in family. Growing up in Bedford Heights, Ohio, Nathaniel became

a natural leader due to his extensive household. As a result, he began working at an early age and missed out on opportunities to travel and create memories.

That is, until he found WorldVentures.

Previously, Nathaniel was a certified welder and machine operator. However, an unfortunate incident placed him on disability. But there was a silver lining: the introduction of WorldVentures, which changed his life.

“A friend of mine reached out to me and he showed me a presentation,” Nathaniel says. “When I saw the video and everyone enjoying DreamTrips as One Big Team, I knew I was in.”

Over the past two years, Nathaniel has taken about 10 DreamTrips. His favorite experience was a DreamTrip to Cancun, Mexico, where he went on various excursions and even spent a day on a private island with other Representatives.

“Part of WorldVentures is the mindset,” he says. “You have to have an open mind and be willing to join, so that right there breaks the barrier of any other company. That adds to the trust and time you dedicate right away.”

As Nathaniel continues to trust in WorldVentures, he encourages his team to attend every national and regional training event. He believes that trainers in all markets provide different and new perspectives to selling the business, which is “critical to understanding the various ways in which the products can help others.

“You have to have vision when it comes to your team,” Nathaniel explains. “It’s really important to know where the company is going and where you want to go with it. Growing a large team means you have to constantly develop yourself, know as much as you can about the products and trust that you’re going to succeed within the WorldVentures family.”

Hadiatu Dumbuyu’s life shifted in two short months. As she was preparing to travel to Cincinnati, where she would donate a kidney

to her brother, an old acquaintance introduced her to WorldVentures. Although she was already the owner of a successful marketing company, something told her to pay attention. She signed up and her business grew massively.

That explosion of growth was difficult to manage at first. The team fought for structure until, eventually, the momentum of growth fizzled. It wasn’t until she began working with other leaders to train and get motivated that she understood what it was going to take to be successful: consistency. “Be crazy consistent,” she says. “That’s what got me to this rank and that’s how I’ll get to IMD.”

Hadiatu believes in the power of speaking from the heart. Rather than using scripts, she bases everything off of her gut instinct about a person and their needs and is up-front about what it takes to do this business. “I’m very transparent during presentations. I want everyone to win, but I let people know that the person they are today isn’t the person they’re going to be later.”

For Hadiatu, this business is about helping people. “I grew up watching my parents taking money out of their checks to send back to Africa, even though they didn’t have much to spare,” she says. That same spirit of giving guides Hadiatu on her journey at WorldVentures. “I went to Cincinnati to save my brother’s life and then found a way to save a lot of other people’s lives,” she reflects. “I found a purpose.”

Honor, Embody and Expand trust is a testament that rings true to many people across the world, and is integral in Regional

Marketing Director Akil Huntley-Cooper’s lifestyle. Trust and transparency are the foundation this RMD uses to build belief in the business.

“I needed to believe in this company and I needed to have belief in myself,” Akil says. “I had to ask myself, ‘Do I deserve people’s trust?’ As a leader, if I can build trust, then the pack is going to move forward.”

About six years ago, Akil took a leap of faith after he received a phone call from his childhood friend, Director Ray Texeira, who presented a concept he could believe in, and something that was fulfilling: traveling the world.

Since then, Akil has made it his mission to lead by example. He emphasizes the importance of attending every national and regional training event to better understand the products and other Representatives’ teaching methods. Additionally, he listens to the audio trainings and reads entrepreneurial success books to keep his mind sharp.

“Being at events helps me be a better person,” he says. “The most beautiful part is that I’m no longer the same person I was when I joined the company. One of the best things I’ve gotten is personal development, which has kept me in this business since Day One.”

Akil says the secret to continued success is surrounding yourself with individuals who hold different perspectives.

“You can be confident in something, but if people don’t trust your character then they don’t trust you,” he concludes. “If people take the time to not just swing their axe, but actually sharpen it, they will be successful.”

Rochester Hills, Michigan native Julian Bernard and his three brothers were raised by their hard-working mother, Dr. Patricia Bernard. While she

was extremely busy earning her PhD, Dr. Bernard also instilled the values of hard work and determination in her boys, ensuring they had a platform for improvement and were in a good position to succeed. Today, Dr. Bernard and Julian are Regional Marketing Directors, a feat that would not have been accomplished without the belief of the mother and the dedication of the son. Turns out, the fruit doesn’t fall far from the tree.

Julian has been the driving force of this mother-son team, mainly because he knows what it takes to succeed, after he hit rock-bottom elsewhere. Julian was managing a cell phone kiosk in a mall. “My job was to stop people walking in the mall to try to convince them into switching over to our phone service when they had no intentions of buying a phone in the first place,” he recalls. “You can imagine how many times I got told ‘no’ each day. I realized it was a numbers game, and the more people I greeted, the more phones I would sell. So transitioning into WorldVentures, people telling me ‘no’ didn’t bother me.”

Although his mother initially signed Julian up for WorldVentures in 2005, and he continued to see the success of this aunt, Gail Spears, he didn’t take the business seriously until one fateful phone call. Years passed, and he continued working six-day, 60-hour work weeks. Then Dr. Bernard called, saying she was having dinner with Co-founder and Chief Visionary Officer Wayne Nugent, who wanted to meet Julian. “Wayne said he used to work for Verizon, and knew what it was like to go from hero to zero every month,” Julian says. “We laughed and then he asked, ‘Is what they’re paying you worth the amount of hours you’re putting in?’ My answer was absolutely not.” That conversation resonated with Julian. Attending Momentum 2012, Julian saw the big picture. “People were winning at a very high level. I felt if they could do it, I could too.”

WorldVentures has since helped him develop personally and cultivate his relationship with his mother. “Working with her has been good,” he says. “She appeals to the baby boomer crowd and I appeal to the younger crowd. It’s also brought us closer together: We travel and spend more time together than ever before.”

LIKE MOTHER, LIKE SONBY SCOTT KRAMER

OCTOBER 16-18BALTIMORE MARYLAND

Growing up in Northern California, a career in songwriting led April Consulo to Nashville, Tennessee, where she has

spent the last 20 years. April is a California Hall of Fame singer/songwriter and has performed with nearly 50 major country artists. She is also a former vice-mayor of a community near Nashville, a top 5 percent realtor in the nation and the CEO and founder of WOMEN: Word of Mouth Entrepreneurial Networkers.

April was introduced to WorldVentures by IMDs Robb and Kim Campbell the same week she was sworn in as the vice-mayor of a beautiful lake community near Nashville. What motivated her at the time was her search for an income stream for her 501(c)(3) for children and her WOMEN nonprofit empowerment program. She thought WorldVentures could be the answer to her fundraising needs. Her instincts were spot-on as she now works daily on WorldVentures and her two nonprofits.

Never taking a day for granted, April has written songs her entire life. She followed her dreams with no regrets. However, when she lost her mother to cancer, she realized just how completely shut down she was and was not living by her own advice. She quit songwriting and touring, and buried herself in her day-to-day work. Once WorldVentures entered her life, April went to a life-changing training event: A View from the Edge. April realized that she did deserve to be happy and have joy and travel with her family. After the training event, she

knew she needed to share her story with as many people as she could, so she authored a book. She was passionate to let others know it’s OK to live without guilt and make as many memories on this earth while they can.

Besides her accomplishments as a songwriter and author, April considers becoming a WorldVentures Regional Trainer and sharing the stage with IMDs and corporate trainers her greatest achievement. She loves sharing her story with the WorldVentures family and learning from the best. The impact WorldVentures has made on her life is notable. By sharing her gift, she has witnessed others grow, all with the added gifts of freedom and financial success. April attributes her teams’ success to having them sign up for the Advantage program that comes with access to Voyager magazine and DriveTime University training. She also hands out the WorldVentures core values sheet to reinforce the integrity of the company.

WorldVentures is April’s daily mission work. Her belief system has been a conduit to greater experiences, including fundraising for an Atlanta DreamCourt and helping design a 96-foot custom-painted mural for the kids of the Boys & Girls Club. “What a blessing it was for the children at the Atlanta Boys & Girls Club,” she says.

April’s career in songwriting informs her business acumen, strategy and philosophy.

She points out: “Be prepared to ‘pay your dues’ and ‘dig the ditch’! It took me over five years to start opening and performing with the greatest country artists in the world. I thank God every day that I was willing to work hard and pay my dues to get there! Nothing worth having comes easily, but the rewards are far greater than you can imagine.”

When people are just starting out in WorldVentures, April tells them the importance of discovering their “why.” Knowing why you joined is key. To promote DreamTrips, she immediately reviews the weekly email from WorldVentures and integrates any new products or DreamTrips that were just announced into her live presentations and meetings with her prospects for the upcoming week.

Her favorite DreamTrip does not just stop at one. “From a cruise to NASCAR® to the Team Mega Trip and LEGOLAND®, I have loved all of the DreamTrips that I have been on. My biggest joy is watching my family and team having fun together and knowing the lifelong memories they are collecting thanks to WorldVentures.”
