The Week in Review

Dear Leaders,

It's been an incredible week. We hosted one of our Great Lakes top leaders, we held our first webinar, and recognition reports for June are looking pretty solid for the region. First, James Panagos, Triple Diamond Pearl from Detroit, came to visit TNI world headquarters this past week. While hosting a prospective leader from another company within the industry, James was able to join us for a Brazilian feast on Wednesday night and a full day of touring and training on Thursday. James' prospect was blown away with the bottling facility and the corporate headquarters. We were even able to slide in a quick meeting with Kelly Olsen. Absolutely incredible!

During the two days he was in town, another leader emailed and asked, "Would I ever want to bring a group to tour the company?" My reply was simply, "Of course!" The headquarters is a great place to court leaders from other companies. They come, feel our culture, see our foundation, and then realize they're missing something in their current program. It's a slam dunk. Plus, it's a great way to build the belief level and increase the passion in newly starting IPCs in your group. Bring them to the headquarters, let them absorb the spirit of TNI, see the vision of the company, and return with a renewed vigor for the business.

Also this week, we received our recognition reports for the month of June. I'll I can say is that in a traditionally slow month for networking, you guys have really raised the bar. We had Diamond Pear Elites, Diamonds, Pearls, and a load of Jades who newly qualified. That's some serious growth. Please give yourselves a hand!

Lastly, today I hosted our first webinar--a Fast Start Camp. I know there were a few on from the Great Lakes region, namely Khary Carson (thanks Khary), but to all those who participated, I give my sincere thanks. Thanks for making that an incredible training. Even though we don't interact face-to-face, the webinar system allows us to ask questions, get responses, and post those responses so everyone can see. It was a lot of fun. Since we're one of the only regions left without an office, expect to see more opportunities to participate in these webinar trainings in the future.

That wraps it up for this update; however, check back on Monday for the latest recognition reports for the Great Lakes.

Have a great weekend!
