The Best New Year’s Resolutions

December 28, 2022 By admin Leave a Comment

As each new year approaches, there is societal pressure to make one or more New Year’s resolutions.  Perhaps you have felt it, or maybe someone has asked you what yours are.

As direct selling, referral marketing, and compensation plan consultants, we feel the pressure to make resolutions, too.

Most Popular New Year’s Resolutions

According to the web portal of the United States government, these were the most popular resolutions people were expected to make:

We Teach Companies

Did you know that Sylvina Consulting is also in the education business?  Yes, that’s right.  We educate direct selling companies on best practices and we do that in several ways.

Step #1

We believe that the more you know, the better decisions you will make for your company.  That’s why we wrote our book, Start Here: The Guide To Building And Growing Your Direct Selling Company.

Our book contains an expanded Legal chapter with details on the landmark FTC cases against Herbalife and Vemma.  Learn what they mean for your company and what you should do now to comply with FTC guidance.

Don’t just take our word for it.  Listen to what our clients Angelica and Kristy have to say about our 250-page book.

Step #2

Sylvina Consulting provides an extensive set of direct selling consulting services to new and established network marketing, MLM, and party plan direct selling companies.

One of our specialties is compensation plan design and improvement, but that is not all we do.

Whether you have an established company or your business has just begun, Sylvina Consulting can offer you information, advice, and solutions to meet the needs of your direct selling business or division.

We believe that options are always important when engaging a direct selling consultant. That is why with Sylvina Consulting, you can choose, by the project, our role in helping you, as an advisor or a developer.

We offer hourly consulting, project-based consulting fees, and package discounts. While meeting in person is always nice, travel is optional. We don’t require that you come to us for the first day of consulting. If you’d like to meet with us in person, we’ll come to you!

We have advised and strengthened many startup businesses, young companies, new direct selling divisions of established companies, and large multinational corporations. Our largest clients have included Avon Colombia, Conklin Company, Creative Memories, FreeLife, Genesis Pure, Mannatech, Natural Health Trends Corporation, Nature’s Sunshine Products, Optionelle, Pure Romance, Qnet, and Younique.

Our full understanding of direct sales terminology, operations, and business practices and a network of industry resources developed over many years each add great value to a business relationship with Sylvina Consulting.

In addition to our work with direct selling firms in the United States, Sylvina Consulting has clients in Australia, Belgium, Canada, Colombia, Denmark, Finland, India, Israel, Mexico, Norway, Russia, Singapore, South Africa, Sweden, UAE, and the United Kingdom.

While English is our language of choice for business communication, we also speak Spanish.

Sylvina Consulting can help you in many areas of your business. Contact us at 503.244.8787 or you may request information here.

With more than 30 years of experience working with more than 400 direct selling companies, our clients have included companies in development, young businesses, and larger multinational firms.

With wisdom and advice from Sylvina Consulting, you can take your business to the next level!

What Matters Most

Abraham Lincoln said, “Whatever you are, be a good one.” and “The best thing about the future is that it comes one day at a time.”  I think he had the right idea.

For more than 30 years, Jay has enjoyed assessing and improving network marketing, party plan and referral marketing companies across the globe.

Direct Selling Startup GuideJay Leisner and Victoria Dohr authored the top-rated book for new and young network marketing, referral marketing, and party plan companies, "Start Here: The Guide to Building and Growing Your Direct Selling Company".

You will save thousands of dollars and hundreds of hours of your time using the information you will read in our book.

In 1986, Jay began his career in direct selling by working for a major direct selling software provider. First as a software developer and later as a project leader and a business analyst, Jay worked closely with new and established network marketing and party direct selling companies to provide them with software solutions to meet their unique requirements.

Jay contributed in many ways to the success of large implementation projects for many companies. Jay also worked with dozens of smaller companies to assist each of them in various capacities to provide them with the systems they needed to help their businesses to grow faster.

Along the way while working with them, he learned the secrets of successful direct selling companies and the challenges faced by them. In true entrepreneurial spirit, Jay’s decision in 1999 to start Sylvina Consulting as a direct selling consulting company was driven by what he saw was a need for answers, advice, and solutions.

In 2004, 2006, 2009, 2014, and 2018, Jay gave presentations on compensation plans, recognition, and field leadership development at conferences held by the US Direct Selling Association.

He traveled to South Africa in 2015, 2016, and 2017 to conduct workshops on compensation plan design and recognition programs for member companies of the South African Direct Selling Association.

In 2017, Jay spoke at the Canadian Direct Sellers Association Meeting on the importance of recognition.

More than just a compensation plan expert, Jay is exceptionally skilled at advising new and established companies on business strategies. Before offering advice or solutions, he asks important questions to understand each client’s specific concerns and goals.
