How Dave and Joy Met…..

Many people have come to know us as “Dave and Joy” based on our business www.WorkWithDaveandJoy.com

But have you ever wondered how we met and how we developed into leaders in Network Marketing?

The story begins with us back in 2007 when we were both living in Arizona. We were entrepreneurs working in the industry of Network Marketing/Direct Sales, but in different companies AND we were both entrepreneurial and working from home.

Although I didn’t think I’d ever want to work with a ‘partner’ or spouse in business, we found working together was so easy for us and that our skills compliment on another….and they did from Day 1.

We met on January 5, 2007 through Match.com www.Match.com

Here is our story on how we met: https://youtu.be/T7ySwGKjW7M

Flash forward to June 22, 2014, we got married on the beach in Naples, Florida and today, 2018 are enjoying life together…..and plan to be Valentine’s and partners in life/business from now on.

I include Beverly Brooke Peterson in this picture as she officiated our wedding AND was the friend who reminded me when I first met Dave, that he was the PERFECT partner for me!

What a fun journey it has been! We look forward to many more decades together- making a difference together in the lives of everyone we meet and with everyone who crosses our path.

Can you travel, make a difference & do your Business in Flip Flops?

As I sit here in my office looking out the window I see snow and a glimpse of what we call ‘stick season’ here in Vermont. It’s the season where there are no leaves on the trees and it looks like STICKS are literally “sticking out” from the ground and from under the snowbanks. Luckily spring will be here soon and all of this will change.

This visual of flip flops and coconuts makes me feel happy and reminds me how grateful I am that we have the lifestyle and freedom to leave the cold weather behind when we desire and travel to warmer climates -when we choose. Our network marketing business continues to thrive, and actually in reality, it usually grows as we are out LIVING LIFE by DESIGN making new friends and expanding our team during our travels.

We recently returned from Hawaii where we met some team members that we had only spoken to by phone or on a zoom call. Network marketing IS a people business.

Developing true friendships based on similar goals is a great way to align with people that have similar interests. On our team, for example, our core values are: Integrity, Leadership, Rank Advancement and Living debt-free. If people are not in alignment with those qualities, most likely they are not going to be attracted to our team or if they show up, they won’t stay long. We pride ourselves on the quality and heart of our team.

If you are stuck in a job or profession that no longer serves you or that you don’t like- explore network marketing as an option. It’s the only place we know as entrepreneurs where the average person … regardless of age, gender, background or nationality… can have the same opportunity to create wealth as the next person.

It’s about desire. We are looking for positive minded self-starters who would love to build a local (meaning USA) or international business that includes travel and team training. If this interests you, let’s chat.

Call us at 802-846-7530 or email us at Info@DaveandJoy.com to set up an appointment to explore the possibilities. All training is in place for those that are ready. It’s not a requirement on having experience in this industry, however if you do, and you are coachable, you could reach levels with Tavala that you had only once dreamed about doing.

Here is my Ideal Distributor…Who is Yours?

So you’re involved in the profession of Network Marketing? Great. Good decision.

When you began did you sit down and think about the IDEAL person you want to attract to your team or did you simply tell EVERYONE who was within 5 feet of you or in your data base?

If you did not consciously decide who you are looking for perhaps you have a team that has a variety of people : from the Wanda Whiners, the Debbie Downers, the Ingredient and Product Gurus to the mlm junkies that jump from company to company- to the true entrepreneur who is committed to building a team and makes things happen.

Without focus or better yet, being clear on who you want to work with you’ll most likely end up with some of every kind of personality. However CAN hone in what you desire on your team by doing a few simple things.

So grab a pen and make your list.

Here is something I’d love to share that has worked for us.

If you aren’t clear on who your IDEAL distributor (or member, or rep) looks like…. get quiet and LIST the ideal attributes of that person.

When I first did this I was impressed with how CLEAR my vision was on who I wanted to attract – but then I also had to look in the mirror and ask myself honestly if I AM THAT PERSON. OOPS, I was not.

True, the answer was NO. So what did I do? or what will YOU do?

Here is what I did. I became a professional in the industry by educating myself, immersing myself in personal development and learning to become the leader I wanted to attract. If I expect my TEAM to be leaders, what do I have to do? I must become a leader as well.

Once things were in place and I felt like I aligned with my list of my IDEAL distributor … amazing things began to happen and they began to happen quickly…. I began to ATTRACT those people with similar attributes to my list and it happened quickly!

So make YOUR list of your ideal distributor and when you are done, read below to see OUR list of what WE we are looking for on our team.

  • A natural leader
  • Business Builder who has an annual 6 figure+ income goal
  • Positive minded and a Team Player

Yes, that is a long list of what is our ideal distributor, but by becoming clear on what we desire, and also being THAT person we wish to attract, we have become leaders in this industry…and you can too!

We’d LOVE to see your list and also hear how you began to attract those people to your organization by becoming that kind of person yourself.

Where Else Can You Get These Things?

Thinking about earning more income this year? $$$

Achieving goals that may have eluded you in the past?

Yearning to be a part of something that helps you grow as a person?

Yearning to be a part of something bigger than yourself?

Interested in meeting new people, going new places? Building long term relationships? Being challenged into growing your leadership skills?

Considering joining a network marketing company? If so, good for you! Here is a great question to begin with: Its a question with only 2 words.

Where else? YES, these are the two words. 1. where 2. else

The answer to this question in our opinion is no where else, other than MLM or network marketing.

  • Where else can you find community and culture?
  • Where else can you find a 4 year career plan to retire, with residual income after 4 years, if you choose to?
  • Where else can you find and experience personal development and education?
  • Where else can you be a part of a group of people who celebrate your success even if you are not directly on the same team?
  • Where else can you get into business for less than $100 and earn income your first week?
  • Where else can you join for FREE (Tavala doesn’t charge members to join) and with some effort on your part, begin earning income your first week?

All of the above are things that you receive by being part of a network marketing company. There are many great companies and products out there so make sure the one you choose speaks to your heart and soul and is financially solid AND that you connect with the person who shares the opportunity with you. Make sure their culture is one that resonates as well.

What else to look for in a network marketing company?

Make sure you join with a team where leadership and support is in place. It will shave years off your learning curve if you join with a team like the one we provide at Tavala.

Interview your potential up line and side-line team members before you join. Ask questions of the corporate team as well. All-in-all educate yourself so you are solid in your decision.

Enthusiasm- one of my favorite words and emotions actually ends with IASM or I am sold myself!

OK, so you have determined that your company is legit and ready to go forth. Be coachable and trainable and be good at the game of ‘follow the leader’. Enjoy your experience and share what you learn with your team. Inspire others and be inspired.

Looking to join Tavala? We have many reasons we feel our team is the team to join. http://cs21.temp.domains/~workwjp2//why-join-our-tavala-team/

We look forward to meeting you! Either way, we can be friends and champion each others successes in this amazing industry.
