NATIONAL DIRECTORS NEW ADVANCEMENTS
Luis & Eleonor Navarro CALIFORNIA Building a Bayanihan Business
Maricel’s sister, Senior Director Evangeline Coffelt, encouraged Maricel to attend Convention. “It all began with that Convention,” Luis says. “It was monumental because Convention is what got her excited about getting to work.” Along with Senior Director 6 Peter Sispine and Executive Directors 6 Dennis and Raquel Jacinto, Maricel has given new life to the Navarros’ business and renewed their desire to fulfill their personal mission. “Our biggest goal is to be able to introduce Melaleuca to our brothers and sisters in the Philippines,” Luis says. “This is something that is built for our culture, and they really need it. This is a business that can withstand the test of time.” While Melaleuca provides the Navarros with something they can give back to their countrymen in the Philippines, their business has also given them a lot. “Even when we were not growing, we were still earning an income,” Luis says. “The power of repeat income is real! We will forever be grateful to our friends, our family, everyone on our team, and the Melaleuca Management Team for all the support they’ve provided us over the years.” “And it has given us the chance to spend more time with family,” Eleonor adds. “I was able to be by my mom during her last few hours. When my daughter was in the hospital, I was there with her. And I am helping my sister and my niece after my niece got into a car accident. That has been such a blessing.” MH
In their nearly 15 years with Melaleuca, Luis and Eleonor have experienced a number of ups and downs, but through it all one thing has been constant. “The customers stay,” Luis explains. “Melaleuca is built on real products that people want. You’re never alone in the business because the customers stay.” Even as they saw leaders around them slow down and even stop building, the Navarros never gave up. Their Filipino culture instilled in them a Bayanihan spirit that taught them that a community working together to help each other can accomplish incredible, even seemingly impossible, things. They saw that spirit reflected in the Melaleuca Mission Statement and knew that great things still lay ahead. “At one point, our business really slowed down, but we didn’t stop working,” Eleonor says. “We knew Melaleuca was still doable. When you put the Mission Statement into your heart, you won’t give up.” The Navarros found a new spark of growth not in one of their personal enrollees but in a leader three generations removed from them—Executive Director Maricel Meade. “It’s so important to develop relationships throughout your organization,” Eleonor says. “When you are willing to help anyone who needs it, it eventually comes back to you.”
