ADVANCEMENTS - JANUARY<br />

Diamond Associates<br />

Never give up on your prospects<br />

As Analis and Hector Marcano, of Caguas, Puerto Rico, celebrate their<br />

advancement to Diamond, they are equally excited for Sheila and Carlos<br />

Marquez and their rise to Platinum. The Marcanos are thankful for Julio’s<br />

persistence when he was introducing them to <strong>Max</strong>. After six years in the<br />

industry, Hector flatly told Julio he had no interest in another opportunity. But<br />

Julio knew if he could get Hector, Carlos, and others, whom he knew would<br />

be an asset to the company, to the fly-in in Salt Lake, they would see what<br />

<strong>Max</strong> stood for and would have a hard time resisting the opportunity.<br />

Hector was extremely skeptical at first (both because of his past experience and his current circumstances). It took a lot of<br />

convincing on Julio’s part, but joining <strong>Max</strong> is a decision he, Carlos, and Julio are sure they will never regret.<br />

Despite being very impressed with the company, the leadership and the product, it took time for Hector to decide it was really<br />

something he wanted to pursue. Having recently become married and was just starting a family, and he didn’t want to take<br />

risks with his career. He was resistant to change.<br />

Instead of joining <strong>Max</strong> after the fly-in, Hector told Julio to continue on the products and give him an update in a few months.<br />

Meanwhile, Hector went back to his job as a supervisor with Dish Network, where he was doing well and falling into a routine.<br />

But <strong>Max</strong> stayed in the back of his mind.<br />

“One day I started wondering what would happen if Puerto Rico were to face a natural disaster like Chile or Haiti and other<br />

places,” Hector said. “Our earnings would disappear.”<br />

Eleven months after the fly-in Hector bumped into Julio. Hector said that since the fly-in he was in the exact same place in<br />

his business, while Julio had made substantial progress in his <strong>Max</strong> business. Hector realized it was a possible solution to his<br />

economic concerns.<br />

Hector immediately went on the products and had great results. He started actively working the business. The lesson of never<br />

giving up on prospects came full circle when Hector refused to give up on his friend Pastor Jesus Figuero. Pastor Figuero<br />

was busy remodeling a church at the time Hector approached him about <strong>Max</strong>. Hector’s repeated attempts to schedule a<br />

meeting with Pastor Figuero were constantly delayed. One day Hector decided to simply stop by the church, prepared with<br />

a presentation to give Pastor Fiuero and his workers.<br />

“To my surprise all of them chose to get involved with <strong>Max</strong> <strong>International</strong>,” Hector said.<br />

Now Pastor Fiuero has advanced to Platinum and Hector is seeing the lives of his team being transformed by <strong>Max</strong>, which is<br />

extremely gratifying.<br />

“The great thing about this industry, and <strong>Max</strong> in particular, is that as you realize your dreams people around you do the same.<br />

It’s a beautiful thing,” Hector said. “Helping others succeed is most important thing of all.”<br />
