Brett Richardson & Claire Borton
In May 2001, I was involved in the corporate cutthroat world of IT & Communications. Spending most of the waking hours either in my car, sat in meetings or sat in front of my laptop. The money was OK but the life was far from what I really wanted. Claire was the office manager for a family owned business, which held a lot of responsibility for not the greatest of rewards.
We needed to find something, which could give us a chance and allow us a change in direction. After visiting several sites on the Internet, I got a call from someone whose site I had visited. He was a Welshman and his name was David Bevan. Well, we had a good twenty-minute conversation and I must admit he made a few statements, which were bang on target and got me thinking about our life. He asked if I would like to see a video, which would tell me a little bit more about the opportunity. The video arrived a day or so later and I watched it straight away. “Here we go another one of those,…. Ferrari driving up to a nice house, the only one making any money is this guy,” I said to myself. But as I began to watch and listen closely to the information, my gut feeling started to tell me that there might just be something in this! Claire watched it and said it looks like a con!
I then had another conversation with David and began to feel more comfortable with the opportunity. He then invited us down to his house to see it for real and to get a better understanding. We arrived at David and Jane's house and were immediately made to feel very at ease by our new friend. He was very hospitable and explained everything about the business. He told us where both he and Jane had come from and some of the experiences they had been through. He explained where they and the business were going and the reasons to back this up. He then showed us around their beautiful home and garden, we looked at the cars, motorbikes, jet skis etc and we realised this was for real! As soon as we got into the car to go home we both knew this was what we had been looking for. We had finally found a business and two incredible Mentor's who would help us change our life!
We got straight on the products, I lost two stone, and Claire lost one and a half stone. We also got back our zest for life and re-gained our energy, which had disappeared some time ago. In the beginning it took us a while to find our feet, nothing like it is for new people today. With the incredible tools and systems that have been developed to make life easier.
Today I work the business full time from our brand new four bedroomed home, have a new Mercedes on the drive and treated myself to my favourite motorbike a Yamaha R6. I have more time to do what I always wanted. Claire will be leaving her job in the New Year and will be joining me to build the business from home. In short our lives have changed dramatically since May 2001. But to be honest, we really haven't even got started yet!
Our goals are now bigger houses in acres of land, homes abroad, faster cars, and even faster motorbikes, world travel, and the usual material things etc. But our biggest goal is enjoying watching and helping other people help themselves and create the life that everyone deserves to have. It's just unfortunate that not everyone will see this business for what it can do for them and will only look for the negatives, and boy will they miss out, by simply choosing not to embrace the chance.
There are no negatives in this business, just trust the company, love the products, trust and love your sponsor, grow your personality, talk to people, encourage others and we promise you will have a life of fulfilment, balance and happiness. Where dreams really can come true! Good luck!
