Awesome Network Marketing Convention, Part 1

I just attended my first business convention. It was awesome!!

I bought my reservation with an early discount. So that I wouldn't back out from going to the convention, I bought my plane ticket early, too. I asked within my team for a motel roommate and booked a room with two beds before I could change my mind.

Months passed and my business was slow to take off. I was working on personal growth and learning all I could from the leaders on my team. In the business that I am in, you can ask for help from anyone else in the business. Your up-line, side-line, even the president of the company will encourage you to believe in yourself. People who have the freedom to own their own lives are within this business.

When the time came for the convention, I was a little nervous, wondering how I would be accepted without a big down-line, only a few clients.

I needn't have worried. I got off the airplane onto the motel shuttle to find that it was full of people going to the same convention that I was going to. We shared names, where we were from, and how long we had been in this business. Instead of feeling all alone, I was part of this group.

When we got to the motel, I started looking for my roommate. She was not checked in yet, so I called one of my team. No one had seen her or heard from her yet, so I got settled in the room before going to the team leaders room.

As I walked up to the door of the presidential suite I noticed that it was propped open slightly so that anyone could go in. I heard laughter and talking inside, but was unsure if I should enter. As I was standing outside the door, actually starting to walk away, someone opened the door and came out. It was someone that I knew by phone but had never met personally before. She called me by name and ran to give me a big hug. Then, she opened up the door to introduce me to the team leader. I was instantly welcomed and accepted into the group. I felt like I belonged.

I went down to the lobby to watch for my roommate, and several people came up to me and started talking. Everyone was introducing themselves, putting faces to names that they had heard by phone on the free training calls, giving hugs and exclaiming how glad they were to see everyone. More people kept coming and the family kept growing. Soon the lobby was very busy with people from all over the world.

A special dinner was provided the first evening for those at a certain level in the business. People were dressing up in formal wear and getting ready ride to that event in hummer limousines. Since there were some of us who were not at that level, we banded together and planned to eat together at a nearby restaurant. After we took pictures of our friends getting into the limos and riding off, we walked to a Japanese restaurant down the street.

We went around the group getting to know names and personalities and taking pictures while waiting for our food. We had a great time, but all agreed that we were going to be in the limos next year.

My roommate still had not checked in when we got back to the motel. I thought maybe I had mistaken the date of her arrival. No, I was informed that she had been planning to attend the limousine dinner. Still, no one was able to reach her by phone. Something was not right.

The next morning more people arrived, but my roommate was not one of them. I went to the table to get my ID badge and schedule. I found out that I had a ribbon of recognition on my name tag. That made me feel good about myself. Even though I was not as far as others, I still was very important in this business.

As the events started to accumulate and the training commenced, I began to realize that this business is more than everything that was promised.
