Some more final thoughts on Achievers--by Charla and Paul Nadeau
Thursday, December 06, 2007
Charla and Paul, who blogged about being first-time Achievers, are back home in Vermont. Here's one final post from the couple:
Well, we left Florida at about 750 am (December 3) with mixed emotions. We were sad to leave the fun and sun of Florida for the cold white blanket that Vermont will be for the next 5 months but at the same time we were happy to get back to our beautiful little girls and excited to get back to work building our business.
We were both overwhelmed by the how much fun and excitement Quixtar could build into 4 days. There was not one detail overlooked. I even commented when we went on the fan boat trip that I wish I would have remembered water then after our boats returned we were met by Quixtar employees with ice cold water bottles and cold wet naps. Once again they met our needs and then some.
Seeing John Maxwell at the final evening supper was the cherry on top of an already perfect "Sunday". I am a big fan and that was the first time I had ever seen him speak. What a treat!
Going forward we are both extremely excited about the amount of money being put into advertising, and new incentives. Over 500 million by 2010 is a ton of money. Charla says she got an even bigger picture of what we can achieve with this business. Walking amongst all the diamonds we have come to admire was at first a little intimidating but by the end of the weekend we really started to realize that they are just normal people and we really can be diamond too. We both agree that we owe it to others to do everything we can to help them get to Achievers. Thank you to the Van Andels, Devos', and the whole Quixtar family. We will see you again next year at the Venetian in Las Vegas.
Sincerely,
Paul & Charla Nadeau
