CHEESE - PIE CONTRACT
One
day, five of us established a company with an idea to help the biggest number
of people to improve their health and to reach financial independence.
We advertised in the newspaper and started searching for
the people who would become our partners/distributors. We held promotions and had business dealings
every day in our small company office that has size of 34 m2.
We
were giving promotional material to everybody. At one moment, we have found our
commercial material thrown away in the garbage right next to our firm. This made us change the strategy and we’ve
started to charge 2€ to each who signed the contract and expressed interest to
hear our promotion. With earned money,
we paid advertising and there was always still left for food.
We
ate nothing but meet pie for a month until our first product selling started.
When it happened, we bought ourselves a meal in the small buffet near our
office.
SOBERING
WITH APPLES
Sobering with apples came soon after the golden period of
eating meat-pies. Seventeen days in a row, we had money only for apples. To
tell you the truth, the apples never tasted so sweet as back then.
We
managed through it all, because we believed we are going to make a great
company. Price to pay was a long road ahead of us, road of self-sacrifice and
great persistence.
Yet our wish was strong enough so we managed to establish
a multilevel company PXD SYSTEM.
I’ll
tell you about two occasions that happened in the time of company making.
Company
had a regularly working time from 10 am until 8 pm and we had a lunch break
from 2 pm until 4 pm. At this time, we dined in the same room we used for
business meetings and promotions.
One day, during our lunch break one of our
partners came by. He peaked in and said: “Good
appetite”! Our answer to this was “Thank
you, feel free to join us”! After this interruption of our dinner, we all
felt tense and uncomfortable because of this short interruption. Simply, it was
clearly to us that we must ensure better working conditions.
The
room that was turned into a waiting room had a pipe in the wall. The water from
the pipe was used as a drinking water..
One day my partner went to get water. I remember, as
if it was today. In the waiting room were about twenty people. One madam
suddenly spoke to my partner “What kind
of company is this with a pipe in the wall?
Why your company isn’t placed in the town Centre if you are so
brilliant”?
My
partner’s answer was genial “We are not a
company with leather gallantry and marble boards where everything glitters and
the wealth can be noticed. Companies like that only take your money and usually
there is a fraud going on. We are a company that offers business possibility in
a fair way”.
Indeed, it was strength of a mission that you could see right away. I was proud of
my partner’s answer. I learned that vision and idea that inflame your wish are
crucial for success in such a manner.
Remember,
it is relevant to write down goals on the paper. Nowadays, people have less
time than ever to think about self and for self (who are you, what do you want
to be, and why were you born). By writing the goals down, you stepped on road
of discovering essence of your own existence – why you were born and that is
the most crucial.
Once
you learn truth about yourself, you do not have to write down the goals
anymore, because only then the desire itself will lead you towards your
self-fulfillment and to the road of your happiness and wealth. It is good to
write down your goals as a sort of a planner of your future achievements
because with them you always have guidelines that lead you.
I
have never let myself fail. I have lived and I live every day as if I was born
to succeed. That keeps me in creative form of making ideas that attract
success.
