Executive Message: Fire It Up
- August 1, 2007
- Kent Wood — president, XanGo, LLC
Traditionally, summer is viewed by many as a down time in our industry, though at XanGo we don’t subscribe to that same thinking. In fact, tremendous benefits are available to those who trade their summer break for a period of aggressive building. While fall is largely regarded as the “best” time to build, experience has shown us that, when distributors make a real effort to continue building during the hot months of summer, their fall harvest is that much greater. Based on our events schedule for fall, the work put in during summer will give you a tremendous advantage heading into Convention.
Dwayne Dyer’s “Celebrating XanGo Across America” tour is a prime example of this kind of enthusiasm. Throughout the summer months, he visits a plethora of major cities, oft times traveling with other leaders, in an effort to grow their collective businesses. He’s just one example of this. Throughout June and July, we have participated with you in a vast number of city meetings, conference calls and other recruiting activities happening the world over. Distributors everywhere are hosting their own successful events. It is not too late to grab hold and follow suit.
It is also worth noting that this once small company is gaining more and more of an international identity every day. Packed meetings in Germany, Belgium and Austria are evidence of that. Joe’s recent return to Malaysia—and subsequent opening of the country to XanGo—is as well. As this time of year promises to keep warm, XanGo is gathering heat throughout the world. Wherever you live, let’s keep fueling the fire at home as well.
