Israel Lessons and Experiences

Some of these experiences will help you build in any market and in any Country.

The first trip in December was all about opening and starting a brand new market. It consisted of meetings at the hotel where we stayed and distributors Assaf Etzion and Ron Druyan and a few other emerging leaders filling time slots around the clock every hour.  The goal of these meetings was to start a few new people who would in between our visits take the message home and spread the word via DVD and/or webinars. 

Unfortunately we had to build and grow without the DVD as it was delayed in production. The efforts after we left were resting solely on Assaf's presentations and webinars.  We left in December with the goal of reaching 5000-10,000 bv weekly by March and 25,000 weekly or higher by end of summer. 

The week we arrived Ron and Assaf’s group did just under 7000 bv, and then 5000 bv the week we left. This week will surpass 7000 bv again- making it’s way past 10,000 bv – BINGO!

When we returned in February, a few new fire crackers had started prior to our visit so it was no longer about one persons’ efforts.  We did meetings in 4 different cities (not just one) and started many great new distributors who now have the luxury of a new DVD.  We’re in the midst of getting training set up and translated in Hebrew so Ron Druyan is rather busy with filming.  The DVD, just like in any market – along with the webinars, can be used to spread the message and not be the message.  So some take aways for you to build any market:

•         Build and sponsor local, but think global.  Your business will find it’s way to other markets.  You just keep building local.
•         Never be the message.  Use the tools provided so everyone who meets you is thinking “I can do that.
•         Set up Systems (you have the luxury in the U.S. of that already being done for you) so that your group replicates and grows on it’s own.
•          Don’t travel to or show up in a market that has not had the proper activity happening and proving itself first (first look exposures followed by dvd and webinar in homes/offices, followed by 3 way calls, etc.).  A visit without the correct prior activity is boring and unprofitable.  A visit it after the correct activity is rewarding, profitable and fun.
