I have three children. As they get older, I think more often about what I can actually give them as a father. Not materially, and not as a set of correct answers for every situation. There are things I would rather show them by the way I live.
OBSERVATIONS & EXPLAINERS
Articles
I write about family, life in Norway, wellbeing, FitLine, personal growth and business. Here you will find personal stories, observations and answers to questions I have researched for myself.
If you already work in network marketing and have started looking at other companies, there is probably a reason. Before switching, I would compare the product, repeat orders, countries, yearly costs, training, online work, the compensation plan and what I would have to rebuild.
Most of the companies we worked with were on monthly service agreements. That teaches you very quickly what working with customers really means. One good sale was not enough. Month after month, we had to answer calls, solve technical problems, keep our promises and make it easy for the customer to continue working with us.
I can honestly say that I like FitLine. But if that were enough, I could simply remain a customer. Once I decided to work with PM-International as a partner, I started looking at different questions: what happens after a purchase, how repeat orders work, how commissions are created, what a new partner gets after registration and what I still have to do myself.
In this partner business, I use the skills I already have and keep learning the things that are new to me. Most of my experience is in working with customers, websites, SEO and content. I still use all of that today. And when I do not know how to do something yet, I learn it step by step.
We have lived in Norway for more than two and a half years, and I have noticed one simple thing: I think "it was different in Ukraine" much less often now. Not because I have got used to absolutely everything or decided that one country is better than the other. I have simply become used to many everyday things and stopped comparing them with Ukraine every time.
After 21 days with FitLine, I was already noticing a difference in how I felt, but it was still too early to sum anything up. Now it has been six weeks. The first impression has passed, and I am more interested in what is still there and why I am still using the products.
