Incredible Convention Opportunity #1: Three days with Syntek Global Co-Founders

Congratulations to Car Giveaway Winner, Maurits Croes

In September of 2013, Maurits Croes joined Syntek Global. People might think that being new to the business is a barrier to having great success, but Maurits has proved them wrong. Four months and two days after signing up, he won a brand new car!

Maurits started with Syntek by himself. After doing some research, his wife joined him. She works as a cab driver. Her work vehicle is a Mitsubishi Montero diesel. Before using XFT she would drive 450 km (279 miles) on a full tank. Now, with XFT, she drives 580 km (360 miles).

“We strongly believe in this product and that we can get more people involved in this business,” Maurits said. They have been working non-stop since they began, recruiting people in Aruba and in Bogota, Columbia.

Maurits has been a motorcycle police officer for 10 years, and the day of the car giveaway he was working an all-night10-hour shift. He didn’t realize he had won Syntek’s car giveaway until the next day.

Mauris said, “Dean called me the day after to congratulate me. I thanked him and told him, ‘I had a good night at work. I arrested three people.’"

Dean laughed and said, "No, congrats about Syntek."

Despite repeated assurances that Maurits had won, he didn’t quite believe it until he received the call from Syntek corporate. After all, Maurits had only been in the business for four months. “I wish you could've seen the look on my wife's face when I told her we won,” Maurits said. “We were both very overjoyed.”

Maurits and his wife are believers in the product, and now even bigger believers in the opportunity Syntek Global offers people to change their lives. They know that with Syntek, hard work can break down the barriers that hold people back—like just starting out. 

“Winning this car has become an incentive to us. And it made us realize that our hard work is paying off,” Maurits said.

Congratulations to Maurits Croes for winning a brand new, $30,000 car from Syntek Global! He worked hard during the 3-month cycle to earn tickets for the giveaway and his Syntek business is stronger for it. We are happy to help the Croes family change their lives for the better!

January Live Q&A Recap

Today was our latest Live Q&A with Syntek Global CEO & Co-Founder John Winterholler. Here are the questions and answers if you missed it.

Question: Owners should assist distributors in ea state with a vendor booth at the motorcycle and car shows.
Answer: Yes, we could do that someday, but it is a perfect opp. for dist. to set up their own booths to share Syntek Global.

Question: hi, please how soon can we sign people up through our site without paper application
Answer: There are several factors we have to consider & we are currently looking at ways to make an online option in Africa.

Email question: Why does Nigeria pay more to register, as opposed to $298 & $598 elsewhere?
Answer: The price is the same worldwide, the differences you see are based on currency exchange rates that we monitor regularly.

Email question: can you make it possible for everyone no matter which country to signup online & not w paper application.
Answer: To build your business now, continue to use paper apps. We're currently looking for a way to do it online in ea. country.

Email question: What do you say to customers who complain price of XFT is too high?

Answer: We don't have any test results for use of XFT in any aircraft.

Email question: Can we provide XFT tank stickers to remind drivers or gas station personnel to add XFT?

Distributor Spotlight: July-Seff U Padilla Finds the Opportunity He's Been Looking For

July-Seff U Padilla of the Philippines spent years searching for the opportunity that would fulfill his dream of financial freedom. Beginning in high school, and then into college, over the last 14 years July has been involved with other network marketing companies that failed to help him succeed.

Then he found Syntek Global.

July says, “I joined Syntek immediately because of the amazing and unique product. The product is based on a NEED not a WANT, which makes it very easy to market. The product helps people, saves them money, and is better on the environment. In the Philippines where the pollution is especially bad, this product means a lot. The Syntek opportunity is equally as impressive. It gives people a chance for a better life, and of course the compensation plan is perfect. There was no hesitation for me to join!”

As one of Syntek Global’s newer distributors, July is excited to get started with the Syntek Global family. He is 100% sure that Syntek Global will be conquering all over the world.

He is eager to share his experience and train his team to continue the growth and become a Blue Diamond like other great leaders in this company. July’s dream of being financially free is now a reality and he is extremely excited that he is a part of a company that is helping him achieve his dream.

He wants everyone to know that you can achieve whatever you want with this company!

In Memory of Stefano Anselmo

One of the founding members of Syntek Global Italy, Stefano Anselmo, unexpectedly passed away on Dec. 19, 2013 at the age of 44.

From the very beginning of Syntek’s presence in Italy, Stefano worked with total dedication in the Shipping Department. He did everything possible to reduce the costs of deliveries and worked hard every day for the past three years to insure Syntek products were sent promptly and efficiently to the customers  and distributors. When Stefano was asked why he often worked late, he said that his wish was to be able to make customers and distributors happy by getting the products to them.  He really did everything he could to accomplish that.

In the last year, Stefano has shipped thousands of packages, not only in Italy but also in other European countries, such as Slovenia, Spain, Greece, Poland, and Romania.  Thanks to his tireless work, Syntek Global in Italy has achieved remarkable levels of expansion. His presence will be sorely missed by his co-workers and those whose lives he touched on a regular basis.

Thank you, Stefano, for your invaluable contribution! You have been such a pillar for Syntek Global and we will miss you very much. You will remain alive in the heart of every person who has come in contact with you.

We are close to your family, your children, and your loved ones. We want you to know that we stand by them!

Again, thank you!

Looking ahead to 2014: Great News for MLM

The end of a year often has people in business predicting what to expect in the year to come.  Consumers now have easy access to a ton of information, which has changed the way of doing business. And it’s a change that is great news for anyone involved in network marketing.

This new evolution in how consumers purchase goods and services probably won’t surprise most of us. Daniel Newman, in his article “TheNew Rules: Return on Trust” in the Millenial CEO, shares the example of someone shopping for a new car. That buyer will usually do a lot of research. They will enter a car dealership already knowing what they want, how much they expect to pay, and other information. They are an informed consumer before ever making a purchase.

Many of us have already shopped this way.

Newman talks about a study that showed the average consumer consulted more than 11 different sources prior to making a purchase decision. Where it gets interesting is that these days consumers don’t trust advertising. According to studies, there isn’t a single type of advertising that consumers trust greater than 50%, with many forms of advertising in the 20-30% range.

So what sources of information do people trust? The new consumer seeks to make purchase decisions through word of mouth and brand engagement. In fact, 90% of consumers trust a recommendation from their network.

If you didn’t perk up at that, then go back and read it again. 90% of those involved in this survey trust word of mouth and their personal connections the most when making buying decisions.

Well, network marketing companies have known about the power of personal connections for a long time. And now it looks like society is catching up to us. . So reach out to people, because they’re going to trust a real person over any paid advertisement.

2014 is looking bright for network marketing and Syntek Global!

Go out and grab this new year and own it! This is YOUR time!

Motivational Monday - Winning is a Choice

This is an amazing inspirational video for athletes (swimmers in particular) but so much of it applies to anytime we set a lofty goal that requires hard work. We've included the transcript for you.


Rise and shine.

6 a.m. and your hand can’t make it to the alarm clock before the voices in your head start telling you that it’s too early, too dark and too cold to get out of bed. Aching muscles lie still in rebellion pretending not to hear your brain commanding them to move. A legion of voices are shouting their unanimous permission for you to hit the snooze button and go back to dream land.

But you didn’t ask their opinion.

The voice you chose to listen to is one of defiance. A voice that says there was a reason you set that alarm in the first place. So sit up, put your feet on the floor and don’t look back because we’ve got work to do. Welcome to the grind.

For what is each day but a series of conflicts between the right way and the easy way? 10,000 streams span out like a river delta before you, each one promising the path of least resistance. The thing is, you’re headed upstream. And when you make that choice, when you decide to turn your back on whats comfortable, safe, and what some would call common sense, well that’s Day 1. From there it only gets tougher. So just make sure this is something you want, because the easy way out will always be there ready to wash you away. All you have to do is pick up your feet.

But you aren’t going to are you? With each step comes the decision to take another. You'ree on your way now, but this is no time to dwell on how far you have come. You are in a fight against an opponent you can't see but oh you can feel himon your heels can’t you, feel him breathing down your neck. You know who that is? That’s you. Your fears, doubts and insecurities lined up like a firing squad ready to shoot you out of the sky. But don’t lose heart. While they aren’t easily defeated, they are far from invincible.

Remember this is the grind. The battle royal between you and your mind, your body and the devil on your shoulder who is telling you this is just a game, this is just a waste of time, your opponent are stronger than you.

Drown out the voice of uncertainty with the sound of your own heart beat. Burn away your self doubt with the fire underneath you. Remember what we're fighting for and never forget that momentum is a cruel mistress. She can turn on the dime with the smallest mistake. She is always searching for the weak place in your armor; the one tiny thing you forgot to prepare for.

So as long as the devil is hiding the details, the question remains, "Iis that all you got? Are you sure?" And when answer is yes and you have done all you can to prepare yourself for battle then it’s time to go forth and boldly face your enemy. The enemy within.

Only now you must take that fight into the open, into hostile territory. You're a lion in a field of lions all hunting the same elusive pray with a desperate starvation that says victory is the only thing that can keep you alive. So believe that voice that says you can run a little faster, and you can run a little harder, and that for you the laws of physics are merely a suggestion.

Luck is the last dying wish of those who want to believe that winning can happen by accident: sweat, on the other hand, is for those who know it's a choice. So decide now, because destiny waits for no man, and when your time comes and a thousand different voices are trying to tell you you're not ready for it, listen instead to that lone voice of dissent. The one that says you are ready, you are prepared. It's all up to you now.

So rise and shine.

Success Story: Philip Reynolds, from Bodybuilding to Blue Diamond

Philip Reynolds knows all about hard work and dedication. He didn’t set several world records in bodybuilding by giving up when things get challenging or when "you just don’t feel like it.” Through his involvement in lifting/bodybuilding and owning his own car window tinting business, Philip developed a strong work ethic—and that has served him well on his rise to Blue Diamond with Syntek Global. 

Philip was introduced to Syntek Global by William Chalmers, who found Philip’s business card at a restaurant. William called him and asked if he could come down to his car tinting shop and show Philip the product. Philip saw the opportunity right away.

With the rising gas prices, he thought this was a perfect business. Philip has always been interested in multilevel marketing, and has joined several network marketing companies in the past. But before Syntek Global, he struggled with finding a company that had products based on a need instead of a want and that could also help him earn a residual income.

Everyone drives, everyone needs fuel, everyone likes to save money, and everyone needs the opportunity to make their dreams become a reality. Philip found his solution and joined Syntek Global.

Philip tested the product in his Mercedes, where he saw his miles per gallon jump from 13 mpg to 18 mpg. He was excited about the results and began telling everyone! He held weekly meetings started in his tint showroom, where he would do the presentations. However, as word spread, they quickly grew out of that small space. Philip saw this as an opportunity to really lay a strong foundation for the Vermont team and decided to open up an office space and training center next door.

He continued sharing the Syntek Global opportunity in the new location, using it for one-on-one presentations and weekly events. This training center has been a great way to pique interested guests, who see Syntek Global as a real business. Philip started out sponsoring just a few in his small office but has grown that into several hundred distributors expanding into nine countries.

Philip knows that just like with bodybuilding, it takes hard work and effort to build success in his Syntek Global business. Philip says, “I have found success by simply following the 1-2-3 system and helping my team leaders to build their businesses. It has gotten to the point where every day several distributors are joining our team.”

He also acknowledges that reaching the level of Blue Diamond didn’t happen without a great team. “I have not done this alone. I have a great upline,” he said. “Josh Zwagil has been there through all of the growth being seen in Vermont.  In addition to the phenomenal leaders I find success because of the way this business is structured and by the way this company supports us as distributors by providing us with all the trainings and tools we need. This company has given me an opportunity to represent a proven product that is in high demand worldwide. If you tell someone about the product and they use it they benefit! If you tell someone else and they want to become a distributor, they also benefit. It’s a win, win!”

Recently, Philip has worked tirelessly to earn entries into the Syntek Global car giveaway drawings. More than once, he has been one of the last two names left to win the car, but didn’t end up winning. In our car giveaway on Dec. 7, Philip had the most entries. He didn’t walk away with the car, but he never quit trying and vows never to stop striving for the best. As recognition for his hard work, his persistence and how he never gives up, Syntek Global awarded him $5,000 cash!

Philip is an inspiration, and a testament to how hard word, dedication, and focused effort can pay off and lead to success!
