Raymond Whittaker

I am an independent multi-level marketing distributor (MLM) entrepreneur, whose career spans an impressive over two decades in the dynamic field of direct selling. Throughout this extensive journey, I have navigated the complexities and challenges of various companies, representing a significant transition from my early, sometimes challenging, MLM situations to a long-standing and successful career. This path has involved not only traditional marketing strategies through cataloging household products but has also embraced the evolution of technology, culminating in my expertise in selling innovative products on the internet. My experiences reflect a deep commitment to the direct-selling industry and a continual adaptation to changing marketing trends.

Amway: I began his multi-level marketing career with Amway in the late 1990s, but found limited success and eventually was part of Team In Focus. Despite my initial struggles, I learned valuable lessons about resilience and adaptation in the world of multi-level marketing. As I was single building the business found it hard to relate to married couples which would be using most of the Amway products

Telco: Seeking a new venture, I transitioned to Telco as I found it suited me better (a telecom MLM). This shift allowed me to leverage my existing skills in communication and networking more effectively. I started of doing it in my spare time and transformed to worked there full-time, building a business until the company was sold, which resulted in the loss of his network and commissions.

Kleeneze: Following my time at Telco roughly late 2000s–2018 I Raymond Whittaker joined the established catalog and direct-sales company Kleeneze, where I found my second major MLM success. The transition proved to be a turning point in my career as I started to see significant growth. As in the start of Telco I began Kleeneze part time building my business to full time. I committed myself to learning the nuances of the industry, which included attending workshops and networking events. Gaining certificates and trouphes. My experience there taught me the importance of product knowledge and customer relationships. Kleeneze later entered administration in 2018, and its intellectual property/assets were sold.

Avon: I Raymond Whittaker joined Avon in the 2018 when Kleeneze was no more. With a renewed sense of purpose, I was determined to make a mark in the beauty and personal care industry. So I could continue my customer base with the Avon catalogue. This expansion offered me the opportunity to diversify my offerings and attract a wider customer base. Plus the New start up VivaMK Network LTD catalogues. Not only did I enhance my product line, but I also strengthened my brand identity in the market. From the beginning of Avon I was the highest retailer in my area. This achievement not only boosted my confidence but also established credibility within my community. Reaching the Presidents club. This recognition motivated me to help others achieve similar success in their own MLM journeys. Gold, Being in the top 100 sellers which gave you free gala dinner dance and free hotel stay after the meal. The camaraderie among the top sellers was incredibly inspiring and fostered a supportive network. Only offered to the top 100 reps.

VivaMK: When Kleeneze ceased trading, I Raymond Whittaker 2018 – present transitioned to VivaMK, which was founded by former Kleeneze distributors. As VivaMK flourished, I embraced the chance to lead my own team, empowering others as I had been empowered. Operating as an independent distributor and team leader based in the UK, I now sells a variety of home, cleaning, and personal care products with the range growing. Our growth trajectory was rapid, and it reflected our dedication and innovative approach to direct sales. VivaMk Started with a catalogue with only 24 pages to selling over 3,000 products. I took great pride in witnessing the evolution of our product offerings and the enthusiasm of our customer base. I’m Proud to be one of the Pioneer’s which ment from the 1st day VivaMK started.

.As I look back on my journey, I am grateful for the early challenges that shaped my path toward success.

It was during the latter part of the 1990s that I was introduced to the concept of MLM (Multi-Level Marketing). As I listened to the presentation, I was initially impressed with the idea, but at that moment I wasn’t certain if it was something that I wanted to pursue. Nevertheless, as the meeting came to a close, I was struck by this desire to take a leap of faith and give it a shot. Unfortunately, my experience with Amway didn’t yield the desired results, so I decided to try my hand at Telco. Initially, I approached it part-time but eventually transitioned into working on it full-time.

However, my hope of establishing a long-term business was dashed when Telco sold the company, causing me to lose everything except for one month’s worth of commission.

It was at that point that I was introduced to the promising opportunity that VivaMK Networking presented, and I became determined to make it work; needless to say, it paid off big time! And now, as you can see, I have been able to establish a steady stream of income, and I fully expect that figure to increase as I move forward.
