Over 100 people from ETL India just returned from their Annual Conference which was on Legends of the Seas, a Royal Caribbean Cruise from Singapore to Penang and KL! It was three days and three nights of non-stop party on and off the ship – including a spectacular Awards ‘Morning’ in the Grand Theater, and sightseeing and shopping in Singapore, Penang and Kuala Lumpur!
The Awards Morning also included the graduation of seven new managers, and promotions of five existing managers to the next levels! It was the first time that salespeople could qualify to bring their spouses by achieving an additional target, and 15 spouses were able to join the conference! See some photos here.
Anu and the team are surely poised for another year of growth, and more exciting conference destinations to come!

Rommanee and her team concluded the first day of their Annual Conference and Awards last night. Over 130 people, including Thomas and me, started at 0700 from Minor’s office in Bangkok for an action-packed day – visit to an awesome 85-year old palace, a divine lunch at a beach, arrival at this beautiful seafront resort in Hua Hin, and finally a grand Awards Night!
Today, the team will spend a day at an Army Camp to reinforce team work and discipline. Then a Fun Night. And finally a half day sales meeting and the launch Sydney Conference. A perfect conference program, and an excellent organization!

During the last couple of weeks, we posted stories and information about the top five salespeople in the region. Here’s a summary of their dems, orders and units:
- Champion / Country / Dems / Orders / Units
- Renay / Australia / 75 / 49 / 2730
- Sarah / Guf / 57 / 27 / 2353
- Ema / Indonesia / 75 / 43 / 2280
- Veera / Thailand / 125 / 65 / 2100
- Enerlan / Gulf / 110 / 28 / 1823
There are always two attitudes towards any success story. One is that of ‘disconnect’ – they can do it because… and I can’t do it because e.g. Renay must be lucky; Sarah must be selling to rich Arabs in Dubai; in Indonesia and Thailand they have local language products etc. etc. This attitude prevents us from any pressure to perform; it gives us a justification for our mediocre performance.
The other attitude is ‘if they can, so can I’. When we take this attitude, we focus on what can we learn from the success of others. We look at their inputs that produced the amazing outputs. We invite you to take that attitude and share with us what did you learn from these champions. Please write your comments, right here on this post. We have some special gifts for the best comments during the week (up to Sunday 8th Nov.)
Remember the Montblanc Incentive running during Oct-Dec!

Enerlan was also one of the top five salespeople in the region during Jul-Sep, with 1,823 units! He did 110 dems and closed 28 orders during the three months. That’s a closing average of 25% and an efficiency of 65 units! Most of his dems are home dems and the prospects come through morning ’suspecting’ and referrals. Here’s what he says about the opportunity, the incentives and his ambitions:
“I have been employed with Motivate Group for the past 3 years. I started my sales career in Bahrain and was eventually transfered to Jeddah, Saudi Arabia in October 2008. I like challanges and the past 3 years have been like a roller coaster where I have had ample opportunity to push my self to new limits in order to achieve my goals.
“Like any other incentives, this was quite challenging. Winning a TDP was a great motivator, however, what really drives me is “challanges and recognition”. Fortunately this opporutnity provides both in abundance. There are times, when the going gets tough but I am blessed to have a wife who constantly motivates me with words of strength and assures me that i can reach my goals.
“I constantly aspire to become a good leader who can motivate and lead from the front. I would like to break my own records again and again.”

Veera from Thailand was one of the top five salespeople in the region, during Jul-Sep, with 2,100 units! He achieved this through very consistent presentations and orders, month after month:
- Jul: 35 dems, 15 orders
- Aug: 45 dems, 25 orders
- Sep: 45 dems, 25 orders
That’s a closing average of 81% and an efficiency of 32 units! Veera has been in the company for almost 11 years. His prospecting is usually from hospital exhibitions, where he qualifies at least ten prospects a day, and most of his dems are in the homes. His motivation comes from his ambition to be a millionnaire, being recognized as a winner, and from the incentives offered by ETL and the distributors.
Veera has fulfilled many dreams through this opportunity – apartment, car, vacations etc. – but still has many more to go! If he can, so can you!

“English-Time and the Values series are Rishabh’s favorite! We are amazed to see how the Total Development Program with its Walter, DVDs and CD-ROMs with have sharpen his sensory functions, developed his observation and increased his intelligence so much! There’s hardly any other product that can match this.
“We started reading with Rishabh for just ten minutes a day but due to his increasing interest, we now spend at least an hour with the products every day! The other day when we took him to the zoo, he was thrilled to see the animals he has been reading about in the Knowledge series. Simon, Nicky and Zing have become his friends. So are Mimi, Ali and the Little Blue Elephant. He talks about these characters all the time.
“To conclude, we give our thumbs-up to these products and recommend it to all parents of young children.”

Renay Naidoo from Australia was the #1 salesperson in the region during Jul-Sep, with 2,730 units! We asked him a few questions:
- What were the number of dems and orders during Jul-Sep? 75 dems with 49 0rders. (That’s a closing average of 65% and an efficiency of 56 units!)
- Where did most of the leads come from? Almost all the dems that I have done, have come from shows like baby, trade or agricultural shows.
- How long have you been in the company, and what do you like best about this opportunity? Three happy years. Making a difference in children and families’ lives. To share with families the tools to learn whilst playing. Freedom and flexibility of not being confined to a 9-5 job.
- What was your biggest motivation during Jul-Sep? Always to enlighten families and satisfy their need to prepare children for the challenges in life by equipping them with the tools to develop the skills, values and knowledge to be happy and successful individuals – clichéd as it may sound I’m always motivated by this noble ideal. I also wanted to have a go at the free TDP.
- What/who motivates you? Being constantly asked “How many dems have you set up for next week?”, “How many referrals did you get?” “How many…” Did I mention that my manager is my other half as well?
- What’s your ambition? To make the TDP mandatory for all families who have young children. To find ways to reach more families. To give the generations to follow “A Better Chance” in life.
- Do you plan to break this record of yours and when? I surely intend to break it. When? No time to answer that, mate! Busy… off to see families!

We sent a set of questions to all five of the ETL Champions of Jul-Sep 2009. And we are starting to publish them as we receive their responses. Here’s the story of Sarah Pascual from the Gulf; she achieved 2353 units in three months!
“I have been associated with this wonderful organization for 12 years! I believe my success is due to hard work, passion for the opportunity and belief in the product.
The last quarter was so challenging because there was so much at stake. I managed to do only 57 dems in three month due to many cancellations, and closed 27 orders. Most of my dems are home dems because I find them to be most effective.
My motivation during the last quarter was to win the TDP, besides my desire to always be the champion. I love all kinds of incentives – travel, awards and recognition. My ambition is to make the best of this opportunity, and reach out to every home I can with these fantastic products. I see myself breaking this record very soon!”
Wow! That’s a closing average of 47% and an efficiency of 87 units! Stay tuned for more inspiring stories!
