Being crowned Valentus’ first Blue Diamonds is an honor and a personal responsibility that both Ted and Michelle Wilson take seriously. At this point in their business career their focus isn’t on amassing personal wealth; it’s about helping other individuals and families achieve their personal goals.
The couple’s organization spans four continents in more than 60 countries, and recently surpassed 60,000 members.
“Step by step, week by week, we work with those that want to be worked with,” Ted says. “Actions speak louder than words and those who are truly committed to breaking the mold always rise to the top.” As Michelle says:
“Ted’s mother had a saying that we’ve never forgotten,” ‘” There’s no magic in small dreams.’”
The Wilsons love that Valentus stands for integrity. “Integrity is everything to us,” Ted says. “We don’t ever make this business about any one person, instead we invite all to participate regardless of what organization they may be a part of.” Valentus is now a global lifestyle movement, not merely a business opportunity.
Canadian leader Ted Wilson was introduced to the direct sales industry in 1989 by a college professor. After that fateful introduction, Ted embarked on learning everything he could about the power of

The owner, founder and CEO, Dave Jordan was very successful in network marketing but at the same time profoundly disappointed at what he saw and what he experienced.

But Dave started Valentus with passion and integrity. His guiding light, his keystone was, “the love of his distributors”. To Dave his distributors are family and must be treated with the respect, dignity and love they deserve.
When Dave launched Valentus with his wife Joyce it was with a business plan that called for sales of $100,000 in 2014, $1,000,000 in 2015 and $3,000,000 in 2016. Now the company has far exceeded Dave’s original expectations.

Anna Woodward Achieves Highest Rank At Modere

Modere Social Marketer and Platinum Elite 3, Anna Woodward, is creating a strong foundation and team at Modere – a Triple A classified opportunity by Business For Home.
Before Modere, though, Anna found success multiple times over the last decade in the Network Marketing industry, and while she enjoyed working with others and building a global team, she found success doesn’t always bring fulfillment.
“Experience has taught me that financial success doesn’t guarantee happiness if you don’t believe in your opportunity. I believe people must ask themselves – is what they’re doing making a difference for others and would their families be proud of how they are creating success with their business?
As a Social Marketer with Modere, I can answer ‘yes’ to this! I’ve learned that when I feel at peace and aligned with my ‘Why’, the success follows. Modere has been a blessing for me. It’s given me hope in the industry again.”
Gold Elite 3, Justin Prince, praised Anna not just for her success, but her ability to put together a profitable team in such a short amount of time.
“Anna has some remarkable passion for the company and the products. She understands the fundamentals of building a successful team and customer
