HELLO MS. AIKA LORRAINE UY. IT’S A PLEASURE TO HAVE YOUR HERE AT RANKINGMLM.COM
FIRST QUESTION. HOW DID YOU GET INTRODUCED TO THE NETWORK MARKETING PROFESSION AND, HONESTLY, WHAT WAS THAT EXPERIENCE LIKE FOR YOU?
I was introduced to network marketing at the age of 20, that was 2008. I was a college student taking up Civil Engineering in UP Diliman. I had no idea about MLM, zero knowledge and I haven’t heard of it. But when I finally understood it and how it works, I was amazed with the system and I told myself that I will achieve my dreams for myself and for my family in this industry.
HOW HAS BEING INVOLVED IN NETWORK MARKETING CHANGED YOUR LIFE, PROFESSIONALLY AND PERSONALLY?
I am naturally a shy person. But thanks to network marketing, I have developed as a person. I now enjoy public speaking which normally I would hate. There are so many things that changed in me — my personality developed and I have also grown spiritually. They way I handle people also changed. Etc.
MS. AIKA LORRAINE UY, WHAT IS THE BUSINESS FAILURE THAT YOU MOST CHERISH AND WHY? WHAT DID YOU LEARN FROM IT?
I don’t want to call it failures because for me those served as lessons.
