William Martin, an exemplary leader, co-worker and friend, passed away after bravely fighting a long battle with cancer. Will was Synergy WorldWide’s first-ever Presidential in Europe, and was instrumental in making Synergy Europe the flourishing market it is today.

While a group of our Scandinavian Team Members were in town, we took the opportunity to ask previous Copenhagen Summit attendees their thoughts on the upcoming Barcelona Summit. 

This is the most highly anticipated event of the year! Hear what General Manager Bengt Emanuelsson thinks about your attendance at the event. We couldn't have said it better ourselves!

April Rank Advancements

Whether it is one of our monthly training meetings in the UK, Ireland or Spain or a qualification trip such as Founders Club, Team Manager Academy or even Legacy Retreat, being a part of these great events keeps you focussed.

We have our training events at Heathrow, Dublin and Alicante every month and it should be a core element of your Synergy business. If geography and outside commitments allow it, you should be there every month, if they don't then commit to being there at least once a quarter.

It's an opportunity for you and your team to come
together and learn with one another to help move your business forward. You need to be the example for the team you are building; you need to show them that this is a business, not a social group; you need to invite your prospects to come and listen to the Synergy opportunity; you need to show them that these trainings are essential!

I have heard from some Team Members that they are not interested in the trips such as Founders Club or Team Manager Academy as they believe in Synergy and know that they will have success in the end; that is their focus. This is great that they have this belief but qualifying for the reward trips helps that belief to grow further, but more importantly it helps to provide focus and momentum in your business. I invite all team members to have a goal to work towards qualifying for each trip; qualify for Team Manager Academy, try to be in the Top 100 for the Barcelona promotion, make sure you are on the next Founders Club; aim to be recognised for your achievements at our monthly training event.

This positive attitude enables you to use the events as stepping stones in your Synergy journey and keeps you moving at pace. It's easier to grow a Synergy business with momentum than one that stops and starts. And even if you fall short in qualifying for an event or a particular aspect of recognition, the work that you have put in to try and get there is not wasted as it will have still significantly grown your organisation and increased your residual income, as you've worked with your team.

Babe Ruth said, "The way a team plays as a whole determines its success. You may have the greatest bunch of individual stars in the world, but if they don't play together, the club won't be worth a dime." Part of working and playing together is by attending our monthly meetings and recognition events with your downline...as a team! This helps bind you together as you learn and share in each other's recognition which ultimately ensures you are stronger than the sum of your individual parts!

Peg Wood said, "Commitment is the ignitor of momentum." I invite you to go to the calendar on the blog for our next monthly training event at Heathrow, Dublin and Alicante and commit to being there with your team!

I'm looking forward to seeing you soon and thank you for being a part of Synergy.

My best regards,

Rob
