New Zealand Week 1 wrap up

As week 1 comes to a close, now is as good a time as any to do a bit of a wrap up. Chris Kiely, who is one of our high flying new owners has relocated his business from Wellington to Christchurch, and has teamed up with Vince Edmunds. Chris is leading the Energy program, and Vince running a program for Unicef currently. With both of these guys in their first 6 months of running their own businesses my main role is to support and guide the boys through all the ups and downs of managing people and running a company. We set some big goals at the start of the week and at time of writing this, the Energy team was well on track to hit their sales goal and in fact, set a new personal best of 188 acquisitions. The Unicef guys have had a bit of a developing week this week and have some serious work to do to hit their target of 88 donors. The best news is that 8 people were given an opportunity to start with the NZ team, so that puts the location up to 30 ICS's in the location now! That officially means our smallest location has the highest headcount.... there's a challenge to the rest of the guys! Myself and Chris are taking a few of the team to the natural hot springs that i'm told are less than an hour north of Christchurch (photos to follow). I hope they are hot because its due to be freezing this weekend! All in all a great first week, additional bonus that should be noted: I went in to Les Mills (the Kiwi fitness first except better) on monday and pitched them on a deal and I scored a free months membership at no cost. Healthy mind = healthy results.
