When rick and Michelle Teague, of Mansfield, Texas, visited Max
International the week after Thanksgiving 2007, it was serious business.
Rick had exchanged 9 years of college, 2 law degrees and a successful
legal practice for a 24-year career in network marketing, and it was the sole
source of income for their family of five. Beyond this, network marketing
was the only “career” that Michelle had since high school, even though she
also spends considerable time home schooling their children and running
the “domestic division” of their household.
Consequently, joining a particular company was never done casually, as a
hobby, or without considerable calculation, discussion and due diligence.
Further, for multiple reasons Rick and Michelle were intensely looking for their final company on this trip to
Max – aligning with a company they could build “one more time, for the last time” was their absolute highest
priority. After two full days of meeting with Steve Scott, Greg Fullerton and Fred Ninow, as well as the entire
Max management team, and asking them every hard question they could, Rick and Michelle knew they had
found what they were searching for. In fact, they felt so strongly that Max was the company they had been
looking for (for the last 24 years), that Michelle was moved to tears several times.
At that point, they urgently went to work and 6 short months later achieved Diamond with the help of
an incredible team, company and upline. Although naming all the people that have contributed to this
achievement is not possible because of space limitations, it has truly been a group effort, and Rick and
Michelle look forward to helping hundreds of others on their team climb to the same rank or higher!
steve Lee, of Honolulu, HI said that his advancement is a direct reflection of
great team work. “I’m grateful for leaders like Steven Kent, Ray Sukhu and many
others. I couldn’t have done it without them. We have a great team with lots of
dedicated leaders.”
Steve said this is a relationship-based business. You find success when you
treat people like you want to be treated, with love, understanding and respect.
Another key factor, Steve said, is that Max’s products flat out work. “We just need
to let people know about it. We have one of the best compensation plans in the
business. This will attract top caliber leaders.”
Steve said using the tools will build your business. He has personally sponsored over 100 people using mainly
the Max videos on his website. “It works!” He said that a proven formula for him has been: Invitations +
Follow Up = Income.
“Be the best inviters you can be. Spend 90 percent of your time each day inviting people to check out the
Max Video on your website. Follow up with lots of three-way calls.”
Steve said he abides by the moto: “If it is to be, it is always up to me!”
