A WORD FROM OUR REGIONAL DIRECTOR Brian O'Callaghan Regional Director, Asia Pacific It’s 2018! A very happy New Year to you! We trust that you had the opportunity to have some downtime over the festive season and that you are ready to rock and roll in 2018. We are very excited by the great prospects for the continued growth and expansion of Norwex in Australia and New Zealand in the year ahead. Together we made a great impact in 2017 and we are confident that the lives of many more will be touched by Norwex in 2018. It is The Year of the Party at Norwex, and our stated goal is to conduct forty thousand parties in Australia and seventeen thousand parties in New Zealand in 2018. That’s a total of 57 000 parties! This is a big number at face value, but we have you, our Consultants, to count on to continue to spread the word about radically reducing chemicals in the household and about protecting our environment. Why the focus on The Party in 2018 you may ask? Parties are a very efficient and effective way to acquire cold leads, meaning an introduction to people you may never have met before. In addition, the average earnings per hour from a party is very healthy and so Consultants are rewarded very well for their time. And of course, parties are fun! I would like to challenge you to take a moment or two to reflect on your Norwex business and to set yourself some party goals for 2018. If you are already conducting parties I would encourage you to think about upping the ante and setting yourself new party goals. Not only will you be promoting the Norwex Mission to even more people but it is highly likely that the additional income will make a meaningful difference to any financial goals or needs you or your family may have. For those who are not regularly conducting parties we would like to thank you for all that you do for Norwex. Your efforts are valued enormously. However, in the event that you are considering conducting parties I would encourage you to conduct a party using the recently introduced Real Solution Cards. Feedback from parties conducted using the Real Solution Cards has been fantastic. If you are not confident in conducting a party you will be once you have used the cards! I have heard many testimonies of how Consultants who did not have the confidence to conduct a party, and subsequently used the Real Solution Cards, were amazed at how simple, easy and financially rewarding conducting a party was. I am confident that together we will achieve our party based goal for 2018. We have many exciting incentives and promotions for you this month. Forefront of mind is the New Year sale happening right now but only through midday on the 15th January. This is a great reason for you to reach out to all of your existing Customers as everyone loves a bargain! There is of course also something great for that new Recruit you will be introducing to Norwex. Not only does the new Recruit get an enhancement to their kit in the form of the new Counter Cloth Set but they have the opportunity to earn the very popular graphite Entry Mat too. Please don’t neglect to offer the Norwex business opportunity to everyone you come into contact with, if you don’t, the chances are someone else will! There is more to come for the back end of the month but I can’t say anything about that right now! I am personally very excited to be working alongside you as we make a difference together in 2018. You are a Difference Maker and for that we are grateful. Have a successful January! My best Brian
