Starting an MLM or Direct Seller? Don’t Miss the Direct Selling Symposium! Sept 11-13

September 6, 2013 By Terrel Transtrum

This past Spring, dozens of direct selling entrepreneurs gathered for an extraordinary event featuring two full days of intense training, an insider’s tour of an industry “rising star” company, and fabulous networking with industry peers.

Here’s what past attendees had to say:

  • “After one day and the information and contacts we’ve made, we know that it’s been really worth the money we spent.” ~ Debbie Budge, Kiwi Lane
  • “Not a lot of fluff—straight to the point!” ~ Marco Moran, Dewmar International
  • “I feel like we’ve done a massive amount of networking in just two days.” ~ Dianne Prince-Johnston, Winnie & Max
  • “I don’t know how anyone can start a direct sales company without being here!” ~ Joanna Duong, Henkaa

And, they cite the fantastic benefits:

  1.     Collaborating with industry peers
  2.     Meeting the experts face-to-face
  3.     One-on-one advice from other industry insiders
  4.     Inspiration from successful fellow entrepreneurs
  5.     Confidence that their business is here to stay
  6.     The best seminar content of any startup conference!

In fact, we had attendees lining up to tell us how great the symposium was.

Watch the video.

We want every direct selling entrepreneur to be able to have the same exceptional experience of our other attendees. So we’re holding another Direct Selling Symposium!

The conference will be held in Salt Lake City September 11-13, wrapped up with a private tour of rising star “Q Sciences” on Friday afternoon. (The tour is an optional event and space is limited, so be sure to add “Optional Company Tour” when you register)
