Experiences
Being a part of Herbalife is as much a learning opportunity as it is an earning opportunity. Find out how this company helped these young adults gain skills for life.
| | | Christopher Lo, 28, Student
Hong Kong "With this opportunity, you can truly Be Your Own Boss." Before he joined the H&W Group, Chris was a graduate with a computer science degree who didn't have a clue where his future lies. It seemed to him that life ended after school and the fact that he would be doing a "9 to 5" job gave him nothing to look fowarded to. "I love being with people. If you ask me to sit in an office and not be able to chat to my neighbors, your might as well put me to jail!" | |
With the determination to start something on his own, Chris partnered up his friends to venture into a magazine business, unfortunately just as they got started, the SARS epidemic hit his home town.
At that time he looked into the Herbalife Opportunity which his mother recommended and he thought it was too good of a chance to miss.
"I made the decision to join this growing company and together with their unbelievable support system, business boomed. The company's "mission for nutrition" has become part of my life, don't miss this opportunity!"

Singapore Before joining H&W, Elizabeth worked as a babysitter, waitress, beauty columnist, receptionist, pre-school teacher, English teacher, journalist and screenwriter. “As far as I knew, a job was something to be grateful for, which is why I’d gladly accepted my first job as a fresh graduate for S$1,700/ month even though well over $80,000 had been invested in my tertiary education.” It was during her first year of work as a screenwriter that Elizabeth experienced our products first-hand, which led to her discovery of its business opportunity. | |
“Workplace politics, long hours, deadlines and the late nights spent de-stressing with friends had worn me out. On the products my energy increased overnight. I felt and looked healthier. Best of all, I lost 4 kilos in 1 month! People noticed and before I knew it, I’d made S$800 part time!”
That was 1.5 years ago! Elizabeth has since chosen ‘Changing People’s Lives’ with H&W as her full-time career.
“In no time, I went from shy, struggling artist with no background in business or leadership to training internationally, traveling the world and having a lifestyle that I’d previously thought would take 10 years of hard work to afford! Best of all, I can work WHEN I want, WHERE I want, and with WHOM I want, meaning no more stress or stuffy office politics! There isn’t an opportunity like this anywhere else.”

California “You build life skills that you can’t quite get in school or at a job.” At the time Clint read about the H&W opportunity in a local newspaper at age 19, he was painting houses to pay his way through college. Now a top achiever in his age group, Clint has the lessons learnt in Herbalife to thank for his bright future. “Joining the company was fulfilling in and of itself—I learnt more in my first year part time than I would have in five years of college.”

Looking back, Clint believes that his youth was an asset for his business. On the retail end, there are young men and women looking to lose the “Freshman 15” that many students often gain in college. And, from a business opportunity perspective, the flexibility offered by Herbalife was a key attribute to balancing work and class schedules.
No boss, no shifts, no problem!
“There’s a sense of entrepreneurship without all the headaches of traditional startups.”
Because the H&W opportunity can be taught step by step, it is possible for younger people to become CEOs of their own businesses without having to climb the corporate ladder. Best of all are the priceless life skills that you can’t quite get in school or at a job.
Clint finds that he’s learned more real-world skills in developing a successful business with H&W than he could have found anywhere else. And, the independence he experiences is one of the most enjoyable advantages of all. Not only is he able to travel wherever and whenever he chooses, he also has the ability to make money anywhere he is.
“If you don’t take a chance, you don’t have a chance. You’ve got to give this opportunity a try.”

Thailand Thanyaporn found out about Herbalife opportunity in 2002 after working as an industrial engineer for over two years. "I was so proud of myself during this time because as an engineer, I was able to make money for the first time in my life." However, long hours, insufficient rest and an eating disorder made her gain a lot of weight and ill health! | |
"One day a friend who had seen me fail at so many diets introduced me to Herbalife. Not only did I lose 13 kilograms in 2 months! My headaches and stomach aches and allergies also improved! As a result, my Mother and my Grandma also tried and got fantastic results on the products."
Experiencing the company's training and support system gave her the confidence she needed to make an upfront decision. A committment that led to amazing, LONG TERM success!
"I decided to attend a Success Training Seminar to take a look at the business and became a Supervisor straight away. I made US$500 in the first month, and more than enough after 6 months to become a fulltime Distributor. That was four years ago. I'm now 26! Besides having money, I now have the freedom to design my own life. I have travelled to more than 7 countires thanks to Herbalife. I learned to develop myself over the years and most importantly, I get to spend every single day making a difference in people's lives. Everyday is a happy day in Herbalife!"
| | | Maverick Lim, 30, Bank Manager
Singapore Before Herbalife, I was working as a manager in a local bank. Although the income was good, I was aimless and had no purpose in life. Thank God, I met a stranger on the street who shared about the Herbalife products and business opportunity with me. On the products, it improved my long time indigestion problem. My mum, who is diabetic and had mild stroke years ago, experienced great improvement too. With all these great experiences, I began to look seriously into the business. After attending the Extravaganza 2006, I knew Herbalife is the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity that can offer me the amazing lifestyle which previously I can only dream about. Now, I’m realizing them one by one. I have learnt many valuable lessons, through my two and a half years in Herbalife, which I put into practice as I build my team. The key lessons are “Tell-Show-Try-Do” and have “Faith & Patience”. | |
My achievement of the Global Expansion Team is not just a personal achievement. It’s a proof to my team members, customers and friends that, “if I can do it, so can you”. Thank you, for trusting me and allowing me to be your mentor. I am just an ordinary person, who believed in the Mark Huges’ dream. My great mentors taught me to do the work that would create something extraordinary in my life. Everyone can do it, if you desire to make your life extraordinary! God bless us all.
