--Coming up, why you can't afford to miss United 2018,
then a heaping serving of promotion updates, and
finally, some flye stats you've got to see.
All that's ahead, you're watching WV Live.
[Music]
--Hello and welcome back to episode 25 of WV Live, where we
read the news so you don't have to, I'm your host
Scott Caldwell.
Spring has sprung in the Northern Hemisphere and
WorldVentures is cranking, and with United just a couple
weeks away, we've got a ton happening, so let's get into
it.
We begin with United, an event so exciting, it's sometimes
needs a halftime show.
As of this episode we are officially less than 2 weeks
away, and if you haven't made plans to be there, can I
strongly encourage you to fix that?
This is the one WV event you absolutely do not want to
miss.
We've got leaders flying in from all over the planet to
come together under one roof and to chart a course together
for the rest of 2018 and beyond.
You saw the lineup, right?
Besides the exec team, you also get a chance to hear from
some of my good friends Jay, Jeff, and Janie, Millie and
Martin, Stavros, Soujay, Georgiou, Zo, and the one and
only Eric G.
That's practically more heroes in one place than Avengers
Infinity War.
Did I mention it's in Kansas City, Missouri?
But Scott, some of you may be saying, isn't that just a
fly-over stat in the middle of America?
And to you I say, have some respect for the show-me state.
They may happen to be close to the geographic center of the
country, but that just means they're the shortest flight or
drive for the most number of people coming to visit, and
with a city said to have more fountains than Rome, there's a
reason they call it the Paris of the plains.
Look, the point is, it's a beautiful town and the people
are wonderful, and you're gonna love it.
Guys, I can't overstate how good it's going to be, the
executive team just got back from momentums in Asia, New
Zealand, and Europe, and the unity between the execs and
the field leadership is incredible.
Often imitated never duplicated.
There's just flat-out no one like WorldVentures, no one has
our culture, our product experience, or compensation
plan.
We've been at this for over 12 years now, and as Josh Paine
shared on stage recently, we're just getting started.
The company theme for 2018 is execution.
We're strengthening the core DreamTrips product, driving
down the price on trips, expanding DreamTrips Local
more aggressively internationally, implementing
more ways for you to earn and burn points, opening up new
countries, and so much more.
When you join us at United you'll hear what the next
phase of that vision looks like, and personally, I'm
hoping we open Wakanda.
Anyway, good news for you, tickets are still available.
Not only that, but there's also some limited availability
at some of the host hotels.
So, no excuses, join us, we got room, come on, come be
united.
You know where to go.
WVEventReg.com, don't wait.
While we're on the subject, couple of quick United
housekeeping items, first off, if you're and MD or above,
there are not one but two different train the trainers
schools happening.
The first for U. S. leaders is Wednesday and Thursday before
United, and for our international friends, there's a
second one Monday and Tuesday after United.
You should've received an email, but you need to RSVP if
you want a spot.
Also, friendly reminder as we announced when United tickets
went on sale, at all the various Momentum events, and
as the website reflects, there will be no event credits
issued for unused United tickets.
As we've grown the last decade, offering event credits
for unused tickets has turned from a minor challenge into a
bigger challenge, with about 20 major events a year, and
more on the way with all the country openings on the
horizon, it's only going to get harder, and let's be real,
that's the same way it works for any major sporting event,
theatre production, concert, or airline flight.
Bottom line is we'd much rather put that time effort
and company resources toward producing the absolute best
events on the planet.
So, you can still sell or give away an unused ticket to a
friend or team member, do the whole name change etcetera,
but starting with United, there won't be any event
credits provided, cool?
Lastly while finalizing your united trips, some
exciting news, there are actually no events on Friday
night.
We're spicing things up, based on some of your feedback.
We wanna give everyone a chance to connect with their
teams and enjoy our host city before we kick things off
Saturday morning, so plan accordingly.
Next up, DreamTrips rewards, as you may remember when we
announced a new DreamTrips Rewards platform for our North
American Markets a few months ago, we said the ability to
enjoy DreamTrips Rewards credits every month was coming
soon.
Well, soon is now.
Now Gold and Platinum members custom monthly member fee will
earn them double the savings, and who doesn't love a good
two-for-one?
Every time Gold and Platinum members pay their monthly
membership fee payments, they'll get both DT points and
Rewards credits, based on their membership level, and
customers can then redeem their new rewards credits for
savings on hotels, resorts, cruises, merchandise, and, for
platinum members, even wine, on the DreamTrips Rewards
website.
Now, a couple points to clarify, your gold and
platinum members are already enrolled in the rewards program,
but to get the rewards credits, members must activate their
account on the DreamTrips rewards website.
If they haven't already registered, they can log in to
DreamTrips.com and click the DreamTrips rewards banner at
the top of the page.
If they don't activate their account they can't earn or
redeem rewards credits, but anyone who earned credits from
rewards rush, will find those credits already in their
account.
Also, rewards credits are deposited on the 15th of each
month following the membership fee payment.
In other words, the rewards credits from March's monthly
fee payment will be available on April 15th.
Again, this is just the U.S., Puerto Rico, and Canada, but
we're working hard to roll it out to other markets, and I
think we can all agree that this is great news and it
shows just how strong our commitment is to providing
even more value to our DreamTrips customers.
Moving on, let's chat about promotions, first, the easy
ones, Rewards Rush roll on until April 13th, as does Mega
Level Up, and Fast Pass 150 is still on and popping until
July 29th.
You can hit up episodes 23 or 24 for more on those, which
brings us to the Mega Rock Star Trip.
[Guitar Riff]
I'm never gonna get tired of doing that.
Anyway, both Cancun trips are sold out, wah wah, told ya,
but since we last spoke, we rolled out three more trips to
Macau, Australia and Greece, because let's face it, we got
rock stars all over the globe yo.
Qualification periods for those trips run March 2nd
through May 18th for Macau, March 9th to May 25th for
Australia, and March 16th through June 1st for Greece.
So, the clock, she is once again ticking.
Now, you cannot go on multiple trips, so even if your sales
qualify you for multiple destinations, you only get to
pick one.
I know, one insanely low priced, unforgettable weekend
trip with the some of the WV trainers and execs will just
have to suffice.
It's tough, I get it.
Oh, and one more thing about Cancun.
In order to be qualified for the trip, your customers must
make their second monthly payment, so since there's a
small percentage of those that may not go through, it's
possible a few rooms may become available on the Cancun
trips, but again, currently sold out, no promises, just
wanted you to be aware.
That brings us to flye.
You'll be pleased to know that the flye flash sale continues
in the U.S., which means that any existing customers or reps
can join the beta program for only $139.99 plus tax, and
internationally, flye first global, which was scheduled to
run through March 31st, everywhere except Malaysia and
Taiwan, has been extended all the way through June 30th, and
it gets better.
If you're eligible for a card based on either of those
promotions, and you're coming to United, you can actually
preorder your card for pickup at United.
You'll need a valid photo ID and such of course, but when
you order your card in the next week and a half or so,
select pickup at United as your delivery, and you'll be
good to go.
Oh, and as of the second round of Android support, which
launched like 10 days earlier, 80% of WV android users are
now supported.
So, welcome to the party.
If you're wondering why you should participate in the
beta, let me give you a couple of compelling stats you and
your team need to know.
We've been studying the numbers and we've found that
reps who buy a flye card, are 2.6 times more likely to sign
up customers going forward, in fact reps with no customer
sales in the previous 3 months are 4.25 times more likely to
sign up a customer in the following 3 months.
Not only that, but they stay longer too, 84% of all
customers who bought a flye card are still active
customers.
So, as we get ever closer to the public release of flye,
you and your team can benefit today, just from the beta
program.
Something to think about.
Real fast, some WorldVentures Foundation happenings.
The foundation volunteer days in New Zealand and Athens were
a big success, so special thanks to all of our
volunteers for making such a big difference in those
markets.
In March we also cut the ribbon on some brand new
DreamCourt in Houston, Texas.
Kevin Hattery, president and CEO of the Boys and Girls
clubs of greater Houston unveiled the new outdoor court
at the Boys and Girls club at Allen Parkway.
Our friend and partner Nancy Lieberman was on-hand of
course, as well as former Houston Rocket, Rodney McCray,
and the court was dedicated to former Rockets owner Charlie
Thomas.
Special thanks to WorldVentures Rep Kim Martin
and her team for leading the fundraising.
With regard to United, we will once again have mystery bags
and merchandise for donations, so make sure you look out for
those, and since we always wanna leave a city better than
the way we found it, we kicked things off, we are having
another Mega Volunteer Day on Friday.
The event will take place at the Boys and Girls Club of
greater Kansas City, we will be painting, not one, but two
Boys and Girls Clubs.
That's going down Friday morning April 13th from 9 to
noon.
If you wanna lock in your spot, point your browser here.
It's gonna be a great morning.
Finally, in advantage news, Voyager Magazine.
The times they are a changing.
With all the new direction initiatives in WorldVentures
2.0 we've got quite a few changes to Voyager Magazine as
well.
Voyage will now be distributed quarterly an it's completely
digital.
This will allow us to streamline content and ensure
we're delivering high quality stories that honor and
represent our reps where ever they are in the world.
Voyage will finally live up to its promise, by delivering a
fully global magazine to recognize our leaders in each
region.
And while our article will continue to highlight
accomplishments, backstories, challenges, etcetera, reps
from a variety of locales will be positioned side by side to
celebrate their different cultures and perspectives.
I mean, we're one big team after all.
In addition, voyager will sport some all new video
content to help bring this stories to life, complete with
behind the scenes footage and extras.
By the time you're watching this, Advantage and Advantage
Lite subscribers should've received their first digital
issue of voyager, featuring United trainer Jay Pacer from
the U.S., Arial Arani from Israel, and Bill West from
Australia.
I got to preview some of the content and, trust me, it's
fire.
So get ready.
Alright that does it for this episode, apologies to Eddie
Head, we just ran out of time.
Please like this and post a comment before you run, and if
you're on YouTube, be sure to subscribe.
Rock and roll.
Well, until next time, I'm your host Scott Caldwell and
this has been WV Live where we read the news so you don't
have to.
