Around the World with Dave Wentz: Asia-Pacific
I’m going to be honest — traveling the world can be an exhausting endeavor, and being away from home is difficult. But as much as I miss my family, meeting our global USANA family makes it all worth it. I just wrapped up a whirlwind tour of some of our great Asia-Pacific markets and met amazing Associates, experienced their cultures, and helped spread the vision of USANA to new prospects.
In Taiwan, I celebrated the 10th anniversary of the opening of that market with more than 2,000 Associates. This market has so much potential, and I am beyond excited to see what they can accomplish in the future as they continue to grow and share the USANA opportunity.
The next stop on my trip was Malaysia. What a great country full of amazing members of the USANA family. I participated in the ribbon cutting ceremony for their newly remodeled office, met with influential leaders out in the field, and then gave a talk to several hundred Associates about USANA’s bright future.
In Thailand, an amazingly architectural city, I was able to meet with some of the country’s top USANA leaders in this new and developing market. It was a short stop — only 18 hours — but I always love visiting this country.
On to Hong Kong! This market is absolutely incredible! I was able to spend quality time with Hong Kong’s USANA leaders at their 13th anniversary dinner, where we talked about the huge potential of the ever-expanding market in Greater China.
The final stop on my trip couldn’t have been more amazing — The Philippines! I still can’t believe I was speaking in front of an incredible crowd of more than 9,000 people. The crowd was so big we had to have a meeting in the round to fit into the sporting stadium. That was a new challenging and exciting experience. If this is what the future of USANA looks like, I know we are going to be successful in changing so many lives for the better.
After this trip, I couldn’t be more excited about the future of USANA. Every single Associate I spoke to is poised for amazing growth, and every single Associate is excited to make a positive difference in the world!
As for me, after all this traveling, I need a nap!
Wonderful to see what is happening in Asia.
