The first
of the VIP Club special dinners took place at the RACV Club on
April 10th with multiple award winning entrepreneur,
Samea Maakrun of ‘Sasy n Savy’ from NSW sharing her expertise with
those present.
“There is no doubt
that when members attend VIP Club events, they not only achieve
some really close and beneficial networking but they are in a
unique position of having an expert share knowledge at a very
intimate level. Everyone who had dinner with Samea was impressed,
not only with what this HBB has achieved on a global scale, but how
willing she was to share her experiences with the rest of us. I
look forward to more special VIP Dinners like this one.”

| “Just a quick
email to say how much John and I enjoyed the VIP dinner last night.
It was an excellent arrangement having Samea talk to a small group
of us.” Anne & John

Samea
discussed her 'Winning Marketing Tactics’ where she
explained how she, as a HBB, is able to make her International
clients feel ‘special’. She emphasised the importance of branding
and promoting both your product and yourself. Samea has a strong
presence in the market place and explained how she has positioned
herself within the market. Everyone gained some real insight into
this remarkable business which sells aroma therapy products into a
very competitive field and came away with some great ideas on how
they could emulate some of her strategies.
| “The VIP Club
held a great evening with Samea - her enthusiasm and drive to
succeed is contagious and I came away feeling nothing is impossible
to achieve when combined with passion and desire”. Marg

And not
letting the ‘cat out of the bag’ – but there was even discussion of
a future alliance with an MCEI member! I will watch with
interest….

“Thanks
for a great MCEI event yet again! Each event we've
attended has been beneficial to our business and our lifestyle
ambitions. We were really privileged to have such an intimate group
meet over dinner with Samea – and it was great networking with the
others.” Sharon & Chris

I look
forward to hosting another VIP dinner with a small group of members
in the not too distant future.
