It’s a Bios Life After All—
It’s a New Day, It’s a New Business
Spectacular Convention Thrills Franchise Owners

This year’s Convention of the Americas welcomed Franchise Owners to three days of celebration, fun, recognition, and training.

Wednesday

Convention activities actually began early Wednesday, when Presidential Diamond Franchise Owners’ day began aboard the Miss Cape Canaveral for a day of high-adventure deep sea fishing. Those who preferred pampering over casting a line were treated to a day of ultimate relaxation and indulgence at the luxurious and exclusive Buena Vista Palace Spa.

The day was topped off with a delectable “Black Tie” dinner. Guests were delighted when their waiters turned out to be the popular The Three Waiters—three highly talented and sought-after opera singers who added an element of fun, spontaneity, and surprise.

Don’t miss next year’s surprise exclusive gala reserved only for Presidential Diamonds—there’s always room for more!

Thursday

Convention attendees on Thursday afternoon were introduced to the new Bios Life Tools-Based Business Development Systems. This first Convention session was conducted and presented by some of the most successful Franchise Owners in North America. This candid and in-depth training lead attendees through the Bios Life Two-Step Customer Development System and the Bios Life Three-Step Franchise Development System and the newly created tools that make each step easy and effective.

Following the first Convention session, Unicity continued its proud tradition of offering Continuing Education classes for healthcare and medical professionals lead by Dr. Peter Verdegem, Unicity Chief Science Officer.

Friday

Friday morning began bright and early for the health conscious who worked out together for a New Day Cardio Exercise session.

Franchise Owners were warmly welcomed in grand style at the morning’s general session. Convention attendees doubled up with laughter as Todd Smith, John Berta, and Glade Poulsen—playing renowned broadcasters Howard Cosell, Frank Gifford, and “Dandy Don” Meredith—competed against audience members in a rousing game of Stump the Legends. 

In addition, attendees enthusiastically played Convention versions of Deal or No Deal and So You Want to be a Millionaire—in fact, winners were rewarded a year’s worth of Bios Life!

This session was followed by what has become some of the most popular attractions at Convention—the special-interests luncheons. This year there were three luncheons which focused on the Latino market, women’s health, wealth, and business, and a luncheon focused on financial strategies and health insurance for Franchise Owners.

Saturday

Saturday morning Convention attendees gathered to participate in Unicity’s annual charity walk/run. Unicity’s Make Life Better Foundation and Bios Life Franchise Owners helped raise funds for the Florida Children’s Hospital by sponsoring and participating in a 5K walk/run, with 100% of the donations going to this very worthwhile cause.

Enthused and energized, attendees enjoyed the morning’s general session. Over the past two days, Franchise Owners filled pages and pages of notes as they received instructions and ideas on how to build growing and profiting Franchises.

At noon, winners of the Pacesetter 10,000 enjoyed an elite lunch with Stewart Hughes, Unicity Chairman and CEO.

In the afternoon session Stewart Hughes and Unicity President Curt Hedges presented the Florida’s Children’s Hospital with a check for $40,000. In addition, members of the Franchise Advisory Board and Medical Advisory Board were recognized, followed by an emotional presentation of the Pontious Award to Burma Hicks. What’s more, Franchise Owners who achieved the ranks of Sapphire, Ruby, and Diamond were recognized and congratulated.

How to Use the New Systems’ Tools to Set Your Franchise Organization on Fire

Some of the major news stories of the summer have been the reports of dozens of wildfires throughout the US. If you’ve ever watched a wildfire, you’ve noticed that the hottest, fastest moving part of the fire isn’t in the center where it started—the hottest part is right at the edges.

The same can be true of your organization. The hottest, hardest working part of your organization (which means most profitable to you) can be at the edges—those Franchise Partners that have been in the business for less than a year.

It takes three ingredients to create a fire—oxygen, fuel, and heat. If even one of the ingredients is missing, you won’t have a fire. Likewise, you need to provide three ingredients to your new Franchise Partners in order to keep their fire of enthusiasm burning. These elements are:

• A duplicatable system
• Simple and effective tools
• Enthusiastic support

Sharing: The Duplicatable System
The system you pass on to your new Franchise Partners requires no new skills. In fact, the foundation of the system is a skill they learned before kindergarten: Sharing.

That’s it—simply sharing. If you and every one of your Franchise Partners simply shares excitement and information about Bios Life and the Bios Life Franchise with just two people a day, your organization will grow exponentially. In fact, the system’s motto is “Two-a-Day Every Day.”

“Let’s take a quick look at the power of making two introductions a day and duplicating it in your organization.

“If you commit to making two introductions a day, every day, and find five people who will each commit to making two introductions a day, your team will be making 360 introductions a month. If you help your five franchise owners each find five new franchise owners who each commit to making two introductions a day, then more then 1,860 introductions will be taking place in your business each month.

“Do you think if 1,860 people were being introduced to our products and business each month your business would grow? You know it would!”

Enthusiastic Support
The best way to train and support your new Franchise Partner is with your example. All they have to do is imitate the way you used the tools to recruit them. After all, there probably came a time when you asked, “Can you see yourself doing what I just did, giving people some information and following through to find out if they would like to make money and improve their health?”
