| The following are testimonials from our 10th Anniversary
Convention WOW!!! It really does keep getting better!! 2006 was my first Convention and that opened doors for me. This year, the 2007 10 Year Anniversary Convention opened even more doors. Seeing the friends I met at my first Convention, again, was such a wonderful feeling. It felt like a huge Family Reunion. Then I met new friends. The training that Dick presented was awesome, as usual. Being able to visually see Dick work and to see how easy it is to bring members in and learn how to work it, is great. There is such a passion that I get when I'm here at convention. It helps me to grow within myself and become a better person and to help my business grow. Mentoring is another great thing that happens when you least expect it. If you ever hear a Team Coach suggest something, I would strongly suggest that you DO IT!!! Because if you don't, you have just closed the door on an opportunity to help your business grow or yourself, personally. The unity, fellowship, learning, mentoring, personal growth all takes place whether you want it to or not. If you don't walk away from a DHS Club Convention with a new understanding about yourself and how this all works, then I really don't know what to tell you. If you haven't made it to a convention, then I strongly suggest that you find a way to get to the next convention. We had VIPs show up this year with nothing but the clothes on their backs because they knew the importance of being here. YOU need to be here too! Get here next year! Make it happen, no matter what it takes!!! See ya' all next year!!!! Karen Kolodziejski Convention 2007! WOW! Family Rocks and that is exactly what we have with the DHS Club, FAMILY. We really do have the best opportunity on the planet and with the new Clubshop 2.0 coming it just gets better all the time. I met some of the exceptional people who work behind the scenes daily to make sure we have what we need, some outstanding VIPs from the United States and from European countries that reinforced to me that "I can do this". It is hard for me to put into words exactly what I have come away with from this experience but I know that I will not ever miss another chance to be with my family again. I think it needs to be a week long instead of just two days!! It is a meeting of like minds, hearts and souls. I am so glad to have been able to attend and now on to Executive! I love you all! Lyn Snellgrove This was my first Convention, but not my last. I had been told all
along by Karen Austermiller that the DHS Club is like family. Now I know
for myself that this is true. I got to meet people from all over the world
and was made to feel right at home. I can't thank you enough for having this open to all levels and the encouragement
you gave me. Janie Marshall Once again, Mr. Burke and the DHS staff have outdone themselves by putting on a great 2 days of training coupled with lots of fun. Just to say thank you hardly seems enough. Mr. Burke's plans for the coming year and future are so exciting. I
know that things will only get better. Cynthia Walker This is my second Convention and it was fantastic. The training was great and just what all of our organization needs to know. The telephone techniques on How to Welcome new shoppers, to follow up on people that check into the Business Opportunity page by reminding potential Business Partners that they can make their commitment by knowing everything about the company is going to be a higher success then we have ever seen in upgrading new business partners. The realization that the reason why business is growing so much in other countries and not in the United States was because we don't call everyone who becomes a member or has checked into their business page. We have been using email first. We need to change to calling first and using email as secondary. Sue Corpron Once again, as last year, the convention was a fabulous celebration of various VIPs' success, culminating with the newest Executive Directors... followed by an inspiring outline of what's coming soon, adding to our opportunity for ever greater business growth! What a joy to see my Team Coach's recognition (Lyn Snellgrove) as a new Ruby Marketing Director... after experiencing last year's convention as a brand new Builder, looking entirely to my team leaders for some sense of the possibilities lying before me... then to be able to return this year as a Gold Manager and Team Trainer, with new leaders from my own organization in attendance; some even traveling from outside the US (Gerardo & Maryolie Sanchez from Puerto Rico) to join us! Duplication clearly works! Of course the cap-off of the day was the party... watching Dick & Pat dance to a wide range of music - sharing both a wonderful meal and a rollicking good time with real friends from across the globe!!! Where else could one find such a blend of business and pleasure on a worldwide scale? For me though, the culmination of the entire weekend was a small gathering following the convention, at which some of us shared praise to our God for all the blessings He has given us through the DHS Club (Dick even sharing his personal walk with God, from the very beginning!) Once more I was reminded that active faith assures me that my success is not according to dumb "luck," but by design of the One who provides for all my needs! Even to "the desires of (my) heart." Hallelujah!! What a Convention!!! What a business!!! :-) Kip Myers Well if that was the office party, you can only begin to imagine
how much fun it is being a part of the DHS Club. For those of us who had
been together at Duck's Nest in August, it was like a wonderful school
reunion, and to meet old and new friends was the cherry on the top. Thank
you to Dick, Pat and Linda and to all those who had a hand in the incredible
organisation. My only regret is that it is the "Annual" Convention
which means we have to wait a whole year until the next one. If you missed
it, make up your mind now that you will be there for the next one. John & Kate Fagalde This may just be the most memorable Convention I have ever been to, because it started with the Cruise to the Bahamas and since I had never been on one, let me tell you it is worth it all. To be invited by Mr. Dick Burke to go on a cruise and spend quality time with him and other Team Coaches is just so phenomenal. It continued at the 10 Year Anniversary Convention at the Radisson Celebration and I must tell you, that friendships were cemented there and new ones have been made and the future is there for all of us. The training that Dick gave us gave us a clear vision of the future of DHS and where we are headed. A new word became the word of the day! "GLOCALY" and that is where it will be at, both globally and locally. This is just so awesome and for those who are just starting, you have definitely come in at the right time and the right place. I am so very excited to be a part of the "Best" Online business in the world. A special thank you to Linda Sisson, with whom none of this trip would not have been as much fun as it was. She is a joy to be around and a great friend to have, so a very special thank you to my friend. Thanks to Pat and Dick Burke both for always making me feel like I am a part of folks who really care and love me for who I am and who I am going to be in the future. I certainly believe I have the best Team Coaches in the world, lol, Joe, Paula and Harold. What a time we had on the ship and at the Convention. Next year, you really must come to the Convention, it will definitely change you total outlook about your business. I just know it will! Sharon Horner Awesome! It really does just keep getting better and better. Special thanks to all the staff who made it possible for us to experience yet another wonderful training opportunity. The fellowship was great; the role playing beneficial and it makes proud to be a DHSC VIP! Laughter, tears, and joy filled my week! Catch the vision and dare to dream big! The best is yet to emerge! Gwenlynn Trullinger Can a staff member be as inspired and excited as a VIP when attending an annual convention? You bet! As a former VIP, I attended every Convention to make sure I gained the latest information on all new ideas, tools, education, and policies the company may be releasing. It was not an option to attend but a necessity if I wanted to grow my business in a professional and educated manner. Now, as a staff member, I am just as excited about the future of our company due to getting to meet and get to know better the VIPs that we are working with. The sense of family, respect, professionalism, and togetherness I felt from VIPs from so many different countries, with different languages, and cultures, working toward one goal was just incredible! Being a staff member now allows me to consistently see and help steer our DHS Club Ship into the future. Being at Convention, allowed me to see, meet, and get to know better, the fine sailors and Captains, and future Captains, which will be a part of that future and help steer this ship with us into the next decade! I am proud to be a part of this company, its future, your future, and work under and for such a fine Admiral as Mr. Burke! Anyone who was on pre-convention cruise knows the weather was a little stormy and the boat a little rocky at times. Yet, I believe that our DHS Club Ship will cruise into the next decade with ease, as we work together to bring about the largest Buyer's Club and Reward Card and Customer Loyalty program in the world! I wish everyone much success in the coming year. Our time has come and our cruise together has just begun! :-) Deb Corsetti Our experience was like a confirmation of all we learn about the DHS Club Business as good and well organized Business. Was great to meet with most of our organization team coach's and leaders. It was our first convention of many more to come, we know that with the knowledge and support of our organization we can develop an success business from now on. It was amazing met people from all over, Greece, Italy, Curacao, Netherlands, etc., that like us start this business with faith and have became a success story, I believe we are in the correct business and have the better years forwards. Maryolie & Gerardo Santiago To all who had a chance to meet me, Thank you for the opportunity
to be surrounded with your expertise and vast knowledge of DHS Club. All
the international members made me feel right at home with this business
knowledge. The phone scripts I know will be a great tool for me since
I am so shy. Chuck Moult This I must say was the turning point in my life. I thought I had seen it all! But now, I have had the Real Blessing of my Life Time. When Dick had said that we could not afford not to attend this convention, once again he has as from what I have come to see in the short time I have been a VIP, has been right on. I now have found the truth and strength that is behind the success of the DHS Club. Love Truth and Faith, With the love that was flowing from everyone that was there, and the truth that was shared from all has given me the Faith to believe in myself and the Faith to believe in others. If I can, You can, If you can, We can, And will. Thank you all so very much, and I can not wait for the time that we all can be together again as one. Richard Cardini
STARS WILL BE SHINING ALL OVER THE WORLD!* What can I say about this Convention? Words are not enough to describe my feelings right now…it was GREAT!! Everyone who attended knows what I mean.. Coming together to a beautiful
place in Florida, having the same vision and the same dream. I have spoken
to all lot of people and it is fantastic to see the fire burning inside
of each and everyone! Dick you did a great job and I want to thank you from the bottom of my
heart! “The man with the Plan” did it again!! I knew this business is great but now I know it will be HUGE, and it
is right in OUR hands to take advantage of it!! I want to thank all of you, the people from my Team, my great Team Coaches Gino and Harold, all the new friends I met and my lovely wife Maartje who is so patient with me! (she now understands my `fire` regarding to the DHS Club completely ;) . The future sky will be very bright, keep the fire burning and I see you guys at the Ambassador’s Club!!! It was a great Convention, Dick I’m looking forward seeing you next year in the Netherlands!! Thanks again, let’s Rock the World!! Rens Van Houte This was my first convention in the states and I will attend every
Convention every year to come. The training done with great passion by Dick Burke is not only perfect
but also to the point, the tools he gave us to better perform in building
our business are just what every VIP needs. Eddy Wynen Conventie 2007 GEWELDIG EN FANTASTISCH!!!!! Ik heb een conventie meegemaakt waar volgend jaar iedereen bij moet zijn! Fantastisch en leerzaam. Dick Burke is een voorbeeld voor ons allen. Hij spreekt, motiveert en leert ons niet alleen om de DHS CLUB te laten groeien, maar hij leert ons ook hoe je met elkaar omgaat en samen een boeiende schitterende club te laten uitgroeien tot grote hoogte. De DHS CLUB is een vriendenclub waar iedereen gelijk is qua persoon. Veel vrienden heb ik leren kennen en bijgekregen in deze 10 dagen tijdens het samen zijn op de Cruise en tijdens de conventie. Een groot complement voor het hele team van DHS, Dick Burke en zijn fantastische vrouw zijn voor mij hier op zijn plaats! Giel Verdaasdonk Having the cruise for Directors precede the convention was so very enjoyable. It was good to see friends in DHSC again, to be able to laugh and joke and enjoy meals together, and to talk about serious matters, too. The convention was informative, and again so good to spend time with old friends and to meet so many in my organization, so I can now connect names with faces. Special thanks to Dick and Pat and to Linda. I know that a lot of planning and arduous implementation go on behind the scenes, before we are able to benefit from such events. Here's to another successful year! Guess what! That phrase repeated itself through my head - and heart - many times on the way home from convention this year! Two years ago I learned about following the yellow brick road. Last year we left convention to set out to rock the world. Both are still VERY true about the DHS Club experience. "I know the way through the maze," may say it better for me than any of the others - so far! Can't wait to see what NEXT year brings. From the first of my experience with the DHS Club I have believed this venture is both inspired and directed by the Lord. Nothing I have seen in the past 5+ years has changed that conviction. I know not what the future brings except that by staying on that yellow brick road and hanging out with this group of people who are powerful servants of the Lord I have no doubt we together will see great signs and wonders. Conventions are an important piece of that experience. Even though I used my last $20.00 bill to pay the motel rent and will probably have to REALLY scrimp for the next 6 months to get back to an even keel, convention was well worth it! I know the way through the maze! May this coming year find the DHS Club (each and every one of us) reaching many, many people who are loosing hope with the message that they, too, know the way through the maze! Go for it! Theresa McGahan When you are at a DHS Club convention and you meet Business Associates
from Greece, Latvia, Italy, Belgium, Curacao, The UK, Canada and The United
States (I may have missed a few) you really get a sense of the magnitude
of this opportunity. When you receive training from Dick Burke himself
and meet his wife Pat, you can't help but feel their passion and see their
vision. The sense of being a part of an extended family is very real yet
it's not all fun and games. The convention gives one an opportunity to
learn new techniques and see where we are going, face themselves in the
mirror and grow and have fellowship with others. I left with a sense of
urgency that I learn to listen better and follow the yellow brick road,
As Dorothy once said, "We're not in Kansas anymore, Toto" Sophie Dunagan This is my second Convention and I am really thrilled from all the Information we heard. This convention confirmed again that we are working with the right company in the right prosperity business opportunity. All the new things that are coming, this is awesome. Our business is going to explode the next months. I'm glad to be a part of it. I also loved to meet all the new people in person, shake hands, hugs and nice conversations. It was like a grand family reunion. Although many new people attended this convention for the first time. Also a lot of familiar people where present. IT was a good to see them again after my last convention in Brussels. We made a lot of new friends, and I am also aware that the people who attended this convention will be mentioned at our VIP list many times afterwards. What an inspiration we got again! More and better tools to build our business. O yes, I can tell again, We have a great future ahead. So if you are able to attend one of the next Conventions, put it on your personal planner now. Dreams will come true. We all will have a FUNTASTIC business. Regards, Pieter Hilhorst Awesome! This is the best word to sum it up. My first Convention with The DHS Club, and not by far my last. The training was absolutely Great. The 1st day starting off with ways to increase Your Member to VIP (VIP) Conversion Percentages. And then on to learning how to Communicate with New Members and VIP Prospects and Interactive Team Role Play. Saturday was an added plus, listening to all of the Executive Directors from all around the Globe on how to Refer and Recruit. How they came about becoming Members of DHS and where DHS has taken them in their lives. Then we moved on to Recognition of Newly Promoted Managers and Directors since last Convention. There are Great things coming Our way with the "New", Club Advantage 2.0. The new layout of the Website is going to make so many things easier for everyone in the Organization. There are so many Great things we learned over the weekend, I must say I am still letting so much of it sink in and putting it all to work for me and my Organization. If at all by chance you could not make Convention, then I highly recommend that you get up with Your Team Coaches and catch up on what all the Excitement is about. Put all of the new training to use and Start Building Your Future. Thanks So Much Dick, Pat, Linda, Deb, Lisa, and Joyce Thanks to all of Our Friends in Curacao, Belgium, Italy, Greece and all over the Globe for bringing your knowledge and sharing with us all. See everyone next year on that cruise. I will be walking with the Best of The Best as an Executive Director of DHS. God Bless you all, Judyth Babbar My! What a wonderful experience, this was my first Convention and
I must admit I was really nervous about it, but was determined to go to
learn more about the DHS Club, and once I got there I was never nervous
again, it is just like they say everyone treats you just like family and
is soooo freindly, kind and understanding. Dick Burke has invited me and my wife Margriet for the cruise to the Bahamas, let me tell you it was fantastic. We spend a lot of time with him and other Team Coaches. The cruise and the Bahamas were perfect, if only the weather could have been better. After the cruise we visit the 10 Year Anniversary Convention at the Radisson
Celebration and I can tell you we have made many new friendships. Thanks to Pat and Dick Burke both for always making me feel like I am
a part of folks who really care and love me for who I am and who I am
going to be in the future. I wish everyone much success in the coming year! Wim Groot Zwaaftink Wow, the convention was fabulous! I have been involved with the DHS Club for 3+ years, but this was my first time to attend a DHS Club Convention. It was better than I could ever even have imagine it was going to be! Everyone there was filled with positive energy. It was very exciting to meet in person all the people that attend the weekly online meetings and put faces together with their names! From the time I walked in to the time it was over I felt welcomed and cared about. The hospitality from every one there was awesome! Everything was wonderful, the training, the role-playing, the fun, the meals together, the fun, the banquet and the fun and dancing too! There was fun to partake in throughout the business that went on. It was fun. I appreciate all the hard work, in planning the convention, that all of the DHS headquarters members put forth to make the convention possible! Without them it could not have turned out as wonderful as it was! Thank you! The training that Dick Burke presented was great! He offered his own follow by example skits throughout. I now have confidence and knowledge that I lacked before to apply to building my own DHS club business. He also went over what to expect from the Club Advantage 2.0 that will be rolling out in 2008. I know that being at the convention will make it easier for me to follow Club Advantage 2.0 as it rolls out. I have already listed going to Convention in 2008 in my personal planner for next year! If you have not attended a convention yet you should plan to attend! Julie Creed Just to express this event in words: Fabulous, Fantastic, Fun, Fellowship, Friends, Future and Unity. 10 Years DHS, is so wonderful to be part of it. Thanks you so much for the profound presentation to Linda, Deb, Joyce, Carina, Pat & Dick. Great to meet all Fellow DHS friend from all over the world, and participating in what is the best opportunity there is on earth. Let's make the world join us on the big success! Charles Haras This year our great DHS Club staff did an awesome job to plan our 2007 convention! Thanks to all! I truly don't know where to begin. From the moment I stepped off the plane to the hugs when leaving there was never a dull moment. :-) My first cruise experience was beyond what words could explain. I had the time of my life! I have had a goal to go on a cruise with several of those that attended and I have achieved that goal this year and I know it will be the first of many more to come. I am here to tell you that Dreams really Do Come True and I am proof of that. I had a vision and a dream to sit on the beach in the Bahamas and have a drink served in a coconut. Thanks to my awesome sponsor and very dear friend, Harold Hill, I had just that experience and it was more amazing then I could ever have pictured it. (Thank you Harold). The fun didn't stop with the cruise as we went right on to convention. We met for dinner on Thursday evening and had a chance to meet new friends and visit with old friends. On Friday the training was exactly what we needed and Dick was at his best! I came home with exactly what I need to train our team and to continue to build a large organization. I have already started to apply the training and I look forward to working with members of my team to train them to do the same. We were also able to see several presentations on what will come our way with the new ClubAdvantage 2.0. It just keeps getting better! Our 10 year anniversary celebration was so much fun. There was great food, dancing and a lot of laughing. I am so thankful I had the opportunity to be there and to be a part of it. We have something so special with the DHS Club that you can't find anywhere else. We have in our hands the opportunity where the sky is the limit and once you commit you become a member of a true family. If you missed this convention don't let that happen again. You just have to be there to understand how blessed we are to be a part of it all. I would like to thank Dick and Pat for the opportunity we all have with DHSC and also for an awesome week, it's one I'll never forget. I would also like to thank Linda Sisson and staff for all that they did to make this convention the best yet! Sincerely, Paula Griffin Wow! We were so pleased to be at the DHS Convention once again this year. It just seems to be getting better and better. We always leave the convention knowing and learning more and this convention was no different. The convention got started Thursday with a get together dinner of all Dream Team members from the club. It was nice to see people we hadn’t seen in a year and to reacquaint ourselves with one another. Friday and Saturday was a time to sit, listen, learn and receive some interactive training as the different people from headquarters (mainly Dick Burke) trained us and showed us what was forth coming in the next few months. Saturday evening was a time to celebrate 10 years in business and might
I add not a single legal complaint against us! Now THAT is something to
be proud of! The dinner was really scrumptious and afterwards there was
dancing, laughing and having a good time of it! Let me tell you if you
haven’t come to one convention yet yo! To sum up this year’s convention in just a very few words I would say it was JUST TOO COOL! I encourage you to attend next year’s convention if you have never attended one because you are really, truly missing out on important training and information to help your business grow, not to mention the sweetness of genuine people there that truly do care about you and want you to succeed! Scott and Julia Cunningham I was pleased to have so many VIPs on my team with us for our 10-year celebration in Orlando. And what a celebration it was! I have passed the point where I will not even try anymore to communicate with words what happens at a DHS Club convention. If you have seen my testimonials from previous conventions, you know I have tried to do that in the past, and it always falls short of the experience of just being in there in the moment enjoying all the positive and goal-oriented nuances of this unique happening called the DHS Club. Especially because the people who have become more than business partners to the point of being really good friends. It must suffice here to say that I know for a fact that the members of our team who attended got what they were supposed to get and really understand now why we say again and again how important it is to attend. At this event, all attending could not help but be inspired by Dick Burke and his staff and their continued consistent and persistent progress toward our incredibly prosperous future with our business. For those who think what we have had in recent years up to this point is good now, you are going to be "blissed out" by the great days that lie ahead because of the well-planned and "long-time coming" things in store, with the success trees we have been nurturing just now blossoming with the abundant fruit we have, as a team, actually dreamed into arriving in our lives as a reality. Dick Burke's laser-beam focus continues to be seen at every turn for our endeavor, and I am personally blessed with leaders on my team that really get it. It just so happens these leaders are also fascinating people and they are a tremendous amount of fun to be with in person, too! So, from our fun-filled, eventful, mirth/belly-laugh laced, relaxing leadership cruise to the Bahamas together right into the slam-bang thick of the celebrations and training at our 10 year anniversary convention, I have received much personal satisfaction, encouragement and delight in my relationships with those in attendance. My thanks to all who made this year's "Breakfast Of Champions" such a joy to be part of, too! I am grateful myself to be a working part of this extraordinary enterprise and to be blessed with people who both have a need to give and know how to give of themselves in this remarkable way we have created together. I look forward to the next one and the next one and the next one and the next one...ad infinitum. Rock on with our good news message to the world! With warm regards. Harold Hill |
