Thanks to my sponsors, George & Agnes Zastrow, I was invited to test ride a Chi Machine in April 1999. Like everyone else who's tried it, I was astounded. After listening to the introductory audiotape for the Chi Machine, I ordered a Chi machine for my own use. George would call me once a week to have lunch. I knew he wanted to start selling, but I had no intention of selling them.

Then, about 2 ½ months later, my brother-in-law saw my Chi Machine in our family room and asked me, What is that??When I told him, he asked to try it and (of course) he really enjoyed it. He called his wife and had her try it. She asked to take it home with her and I said sure! She tried it before bedtime and slept through the night for the first time in months. The next day, they called back and ordered one. They also told their Aunt, a retired reflexologist about the Chi Machine. She tried it for 5 minutes - never saw a tape or brochure- and ordered one!

Well, two orders at $500 each got my attention. I checked with two of my upline friends, Art Mai and Ed Jirak. After a long talk with them, I decided to give it a whirl. I concentrated on mailing the audiotape to my warm market networkers. I got about 24% responses without first calling. I also tested a good network-marketing list and got about a 6% response. Sign-ups were great!

I started a Conference Call Tuesday's and Thursday's every week to support the fast growing downline. We got a fax-on-demand (FOD) going and a monthly newsletter. I send the newsletter to all the people that have responded to my mailing. My feeling is that, in network marketing, there are not many networks that stay in touch with those who have once shown interest. If it weren't for them, we wouldn't be getting such nice checks. And, thanks to the hard-working distributors in my organization; for, without them, we would not have succeeded. I also am very appreciative of the help we received through Deanna Sudweeks and her office staff.
