principles they learned in Fast Track and have created new teams for the opportunity of helping others. Over the years that Susan has been building her business, she’s learned that Melaleuca’s business model works because it’s built on solid principles—something that her previous company didn’t have. “I always tell people when they enroll and become a part of our group, ‘You have a solid foundation here,’” says Susan. “We don’t struggle with retention. We don’t struggle with Product Point orders. We stick to the basics of what we’ve always done.

We never have to say, ‘We can’t do this because we don’t have money.’ We can make our decisions without that stress. It’s a huge blessing that I love being able to pass on to others.”

She’s gained momentum to move forward and she’s not stopping—she hopes to advance to Executive Director 3 in the coming months. “I’ve always found it so fun and rewarding to see people advancing again and coming back after encountering some adversity,” Susan says. “Now it’s my turn.” Susan’s new upward climb was spurred by her participation in the corporate Fast Track held earlier this year. While practicing daily accountability with her Fast Track team, she realized that she had been working hard at activities that didn’t produce the growth she wanted. With a renewed focus on all of the Seven Critical Business-Building Activities, she gained the momentum she needed to advance and help her team. She’s extremely proud of her teammates, Senior Director Cheryl Heavener, Director 2 Jennifer Grisham, and Director 8 Patsy Gregory, who reinvigorated their businesses and met their goals. Their team enrolled over 100 customers during Fast Track! They are all continuing to build their businesses with the

“I love the fact that people can come into Melaleuca brand new and do just as much as or more than those who have been here a long time,” says Susan. “Because of this, Melaleuca is growing by leaps and bounds, so our future looks very bright.”
