Greg & Rebecca Dekker

Greg:
We've earned good incomes in corporate jobs. But when you have an income with limits on its potential, then you tend not to think beyond that. So you don't dream big. With network marketing, there are no limits - anything is possible. Everyone deserves some big dreams.

Rebecca:
The growth of our Waiora business is astounding. My first goal has been to be able to leave my corporate job. In just four months we are earning enough to replace that income. What a great feeling! Next year will be an amazing year for our family!

Greg:
Rebecca and I have both spent a great deal of time in corporate America. Our professional backgrounds are in marketing and advertising. In fact, I was a partner in an ad agency, and it was there that I first looked at direct sales - we could tell that word of mouth was quickly becoming the most effective way to promote a product, and I knew that we needed to have an income to supplement the dwindling ad revenues!

Rebecca:
We grew up in Michigan, where we were very familiar with direct sales - the Amway headquarters were nearby and the owners' kids went to our schools! We knew the business model worked, so we did our best to find a company that would be a good fit for us.

Greg:
When we first evaluated the industry a company we were impressed with was Rexall Showcase International, which had an incredible success story. When we learned about Waiora, we were thrilled to hear that the founders of Waiora were some of the top executives and leaders from Rexall.

Rebecca:
So few companies have management like Waiora. The foundation of any company is its leadership, and Stan Cherelstein and Eddie Stone have created a vision that we can all follow.

Greg:
Having worked with many large companies, such as IBM and Merck, I've learned that great companies have great leaders. Stan and Eddie's experienced leadership is really what sets Waiora apart.

Rebecca:
Our reasons for joining Waiora also became suddenly personal. Greg was diagnosed with a significant health concern and that caused us to take a look at our life and evaluate it not only from a financial standpoint but also how we could make a meaningful difference in the lives of others.

Greg:
Thankfully, with the help of Natural Cellular Defense my body has been detoxified, allowing it to heal itself and I've now been given a clean bill of health.

Rebecca:
You know - there are a lot of ways that you can make money. But the only way to gain financial freedom is to own your own business. The greatest reward comes when you can do that while making a meaningful difference in someone else's life.

Greg:
Like so many people coming home after a long day at the office, I love to get out of my corporate clothes and into my slippers. Part of what I love about working with Waiora is wearing slippers just about all the time. In a real sense, those slippers mean freedom of choice.

Rebecca:
It really is powerful to be offering people choices. For example, there are so many people who could benefit from a couple of extra thousand dollars a month for college tuition, travel or retirement. People ask me how I know the industry works and I point them to the residual income that only network marketing can provide. We're bringing our sons to London for spring break and Waiora's paying for that.

Greg:
You don't need to know anything special to be successful. You just need to share and follow a proven system. We call people and tell them there's a website they should see, and then follow up with a three-way call. Your success in the industry can be tied directly to the number of three-way calls that you do.

Rebecca:
Another important aspect of our business is telling stories. We share our experience or tell someone else's story, whether it's the health benefits or income they've earned. Hearing a short story that they can relate to helps people see that this is just about sharing and it's easy to do.

Greg:
We also use a systematic approach to help people learn how to choose the right company. Some people have signed up with a company and had a bad experience. We help them understand that may be due to their circumstances, timing or the company and not them. Then we show how Waiora has all the right elements for success.

Rebecca:
It's amazing to me how many people have never been introduced to this industry. I run into people all the time who are not even aware that they have an alternative to going into work while it's still dark and leaving work after dark. It's so much fun to see the lights go on in their eyes when they learn that they have a choice.

Greg:
And when they find out that they can work in slippers.
