Dream
providing our distributors with unmatched service every step of the way in their direct selling journey. We also recognise that our greatest assets are our people. We are committed to giving you all the support you need to succeed and inspire others to become successful, as well.
The unprecedented pandemic has given the direct selling industry an opportunity to rise as a business model that can withstand recessions. Restrictions have been imposed globally to flatten the curve, leaving people with no other choice except to embrace change and turn a crisis into a golden opportunity for growth. Adapting to radical changes maybe new to others, but to us here at QNET, it is second nature. We were established at the height of a global financial crisis and have weathered many changes – each of which made us stronger and reignited our vision. For over two decades, we have helped thousands of distributors write their own success stories, not only through the benefits of our exclusive lifestyle products, but also through our dynamic compensation plan. The QNET Compensation Plan evolves as we evolve,
Now more than ever, there is an exceptional demand for more income opportunities other than traditional employment and businesses. It just so happens that, in QNET, this is exactly what we do best. Not only do we provide a potential source of income; we also inspire people to dream. Margaret Wheatley, an American author once said, “Give people resources, give them a sense of direction, give them a sense of their own power and just have tremendous faith that they’ll figure it out.” This is what we aspire to provide our global QNET Family. We are dedicated to providing you with all the tools and support that you need to build a winning culture of success and empower others to achieve with you. Reach for your dreams and inspire countless others to do the same!

A HEALTHY HOME IS A HAPPY HOME Household Essentials for a Healthy Life
With many of us having to spend more and more time indoors, it’s important to make sure we create an optimal environment for our health and happiness. The air we breathe, the water we drink – these elements are essential to our well-being. Therefore, their quality makes a big impact on how we think, feel, and ultimately, live. When you stay at home, the likelihood of your house accumulating dirt and dust increases, so take the necessary steps to create a healthy environment. Make cleaning the house a fun family project. Open your windows every now and then for ventilation and fresh air. Even better, invest in a high-quality air purification system to help clear out the pollutants that make their way inside
HomePure Zayn’s 5-stage air purification system:
• Purifies the air in your home by removing up to 99.8% of airborne particulates, allergens, viruses, bacteria, moulds, fungi, bad odour • Protects you and your loved ones from e-smog

HomePure Nova has a 9-stage water filtration system that:
Just like with clean air, we also need clean water every day. But what if the quality of your water supply has been compromised? We may not have control over external factors, but we can control the state of water in our own homes. The best way to do this is by investing in a complete water filtration system, an excellent step to living a healthier life.
• Removes viruses and bacteria • Filters out contaminants • Improves the taste of your water • Turns tap water into Pi-Water

The Journey of
Bernhard H. Mayer® This year we are celebrating 150 years of the Bernhard H. Mayer ® – a strong legacy that has brought us the finest Swiss made watches and jewellery through the most excellent craftmanship. Let us take a trip to rediscover the amazing milestones in this beloved brand’s history.
First to Second Generation 1871
A young entrepreneur, Bernhard H. Mayer sets up shop in Pforzheim, Germany – a small town that would later be renowned for jewellery and watchmaking. Bernhard picks up a passion for engraving pocket watches, which would eventually become the foundation for the modern Swiss timepieces of Bernhard H. Mayer®.
1880-1890
The Mayers receive their first contract to create commemorative medals for European Royalty and Nobility, and their name becomes synonymous with high precision craftsmanship.
1898
Bernhard H. Mayer becomes a prominent figure in Pforzeim. He becomes the first in the city to purchase and drive and automobile, as inspired by his relative Bertha Benz, wife of automobile inventor Carl Benz.
1900
The Mayer name crosses national borders and becomes an international brand after winning the silver medal at the World‘s Fair in Paris, France.
Early 1900s
Bernhard’s son, Rudolf, expands the family business to minting coins and medallions for various international markets.
19 Third to Fourth Generation 1930s
The third generation of the Mayer family takes over. Bernhard becomes the chief artist, designer, and sculptor, while his brother Eberhard manages the business.
1939 to 1945
The Mayer factory offices are destroyed during World War II and it would take 16 years to rebuild the family business.
1970
The fourth generation Mayer, also named Bernhard, takes over and expands across the Atlantic into the United States of America.
1971 1961
The Mayer brand recovers and the business is stronger than ever.
1962 1936
The House of Mayer manufactures gold and silver medals for the Olympics held in Berlin, Germany.
The Mayers are commissioned to create medallions to commemorate the peace treaty between Charles de Gaulle of France and Konrad Adenauer of Germany.
The Bernhard H. Mayer® family celebrates 100 years of excellent craftsmanship.
1980s and 90s
The Mayer family taps into coin watches and coin jewellery successfully, signifying a new era for the Mayer brand.
2000
Bernhard H. Mayer® enters into a strategic partnership with the QI Group, a journey that continues till date.
2006 1937
The Mayer brand is awarded the Gold medal at the World’s Fair in Paris, France.

Water for Africa For years, girls and women in rural Iringa, Tanzania had to walk for 11 kilometres to get their water supply, which more often than not was contaminated. Villagers shared their water source with wild animals, and these young girls often risked either animal attacks or rape along their journey to fetch water. Despite boiling the water people still contracted diseases from it. Unfortunately, they had no other choice but to go back to the same river as it was their only source of water.
The plight of these poor Tanzanians caught the attention of Australian couple Phil and Julie Hepworth who set up the Water for Africa (WFA) project through which they raised funds to build water wells for the community. Each well costs about USD 5,000 and provides water to 3,000 villagers. Since 2015, they have built 45 wells. They soon realised that building the wells alone was not sufficient and was only a short-term fix. The water wells need to be maintained and require repair resulting from wear and tear with use, all of which incur additional expenses.
29 This is when RYTHM Foundation stepped in and partnered with WFA to establish the Footprint project with the aim of providing a longterm solution and building capacity within the community to make it self-sustaining in the long term. Under this project, WFA identified 50 acres of land and worked with the local community to train villagers in farming avocado and macadamia nuts. Profits from the harvest of this plantation are being channelled to the building, maintenance, and repair of the water wells. Community members are also being trained in maintenance skills. Over the next few years, around 2 million people will benefit from the Footprint project.
With funding from RYTHM Foundation, WFA is now also able to automate the water indication and has also installed a solar power source to make the project even more eco-friendly. With all these measures in place, the locals are now able to take ownership to maintain the water wells and would no longer need funds from foreigners to build new ones. Water for Africa’s Footprint project is one of the many sustainable community projects supported by RYTHM Foundation, in collaboration with registered NGOs and International Foundations, to reach out and assist underserved communities around the world.

Navigating The Modern Entrepreneurial World
31 In-Trend with
Dato’ Sri Vijay Eswaran The pandemic brought about a surge of change all around us. We saw a dive in the stock market, decades old businesses closed down within weeks, and millions lost their jobs overnight. Companies were no longer focusing on beating their competition. Instead, they redirected their efforts to their own survival, pivoting their business model to stay relevant in a time of great uncertainty. However, those who approached this crisis as an opportunity for change and innovation are coming out of this crisis stronger. Our very own Dato Sri Vijay Eswaran launched the In-Trend video series on YouTube to share his advice and tips on navigating the unchartered path and practising detachment as an importance aspect of entrepreneurship during times of uncertainty. Watch the videos below.

Aspire to Be Your Best Self Train Yourself for the Future All businesses aim to become the next disruptor, not the disrupted. However, the past year has brought about a drastic turn of events for the global economy. The shutdown of major businesses from various industries due to the pandemic seemed endless. But not for us here at QNET and The V. Are you ready to face a crisis? Nobody knows when a crisis will come. And yet, here we are today. We are able to face the biggest challenge of the century because we started our training 22 years ago.
Are You Going to be a Fly or a Bee? Is there goodness in everyone? Definitely. But is there also garbage in everyone? Absolutely. Each one of us has the tremendous capacity to achieve our limitless potential. However, being able to do so requires us to exert a lot of effort, not just in our daily actions, but most importantly, in our mindset. We decide what takes place in our lives. I can. I must. I will. Are you going to accept garbage or goodness?
33 What does it take to become successful? How can great leaders inspire action? The answer to achieving success in this business lies within each and every one of us. We need to learn to be prepared for whatever challenges the future might bring and remember to refuel our passion just like when we first started in the business. We need to constantly practice positivity and learn how to manage our attention, not our time. Learn from these videos by Mr Joseph Bismark.
Refuel Your Passion Passion needs to be revived and refueled on a regular basis. But what do you do when the fire is no longer burning? We are where we are today because of our passion when we started. So, you must remember that your passion fuels your downlines, your network, and our company. How are you refueling it?
Manage Your Attention, Not Your Time The more you plan your day, the less urgent matters will be facing you on a day-to-day basis. Have you ever planned your day by the hour or by the minute, and yet still feel unproductive at the end of the day? People say that you are what you attend to, so what have you been spending your attention on most lately — important matters or urgent concerns?

Lessons from the
Pandemic
By Malou Caluza
It’s hard to imagine a year of greater change, or opportunity, for direct sellers, than 2020. As long as you have adapted to the change and learned valuable lessons from the pandemic from the past year, there has never been a better time for everyone than now. In this article, QNET CEO Malou Caluza talks about the three most important lessons you can learn from the pandemic.
37
1
. There is no turning away from digitisation
Video calls, contactless payments, e-learning, and online shopping are now a part of our daily lives. There is no turning back from this. Direct selling businesses have always had a combination of online and offline support systems for their networks but in this past year going 100% online was the only option. Those who educated their distributors and provided them with tools and support to help them build their business online, thrived!
2
. Focus on your leaders
3
. Learn to move on from mistakes
People are at the heart of any direct selling business. The lasting relationships direct selling companies build with their leading distributors shapes their growth and evolution. It is during times of crisis that people need to hear from you on a regular basis. Communicate, communicate, communicate. There is no substitute to this. The swift and massive spread of Covid-19 is perhaps one of the hardest-hitting crises the entire modern world has experienced in the last 100 years. Considering the situation, mistakes were inevitable – everyone was trying to wade through unfamiliar waters. The trick is to not let these mistakes get to you. The best course of action is to understand the cause and prevent it from happening again. Learn from mistakes and setbacks quickly and move on because even in the midst of a crisis, the world does not wait for you to recover.
38
QNETPRO
Nurturing Your Network is the Foundation of Success Chief Pathman Senathirajah lays down the reasons why many distributors fail in keeping their network active. Learn all about why nurturing your network instead of trying to build it blindly is the best way forward to networking success.
The Greatest Challenge in Direct Selling “The greatest challenges we face today in the industry, as Dato Sri Vijay highlighted to me a few days ago, is that a person who signs up needs to understand what he or she needs to do. However, the greatest danger is that you sign up somebody, and then you dump five videos on them. You force them to attend a training or watch zoom training by the upline. But there’s not enough to guide them one on one,” says Chief.
39 The Rambutan Syndrome Getting the rambutans down from the tree is difficult. You’d have to throw stones at it in the hopes you’d be successful. Chief compares this to distributors throwing videos at their sign ups in the beginning. You might sign up a few people this way, but unless your prospects are nurtured with intention, they will stay on the tree. “The saddest statistic in direct selling is the number of people who sign up and don’t even get started. That means they give up before starting.
The reason is the person who signs them up, thinks that get job is over the minute they process the signer, and then give him three videos ask him to attend an event. Right? It’s almost like the rambutan syndrome.”
How to Build the Foundation of Success Create a golden rule with yourself about how you will carry all of your direct referrals to success. Set the right expectations, and explain the direct selling industry to them instead of throwing videos at them.
Reaching the Platinum and Diamond ranks in the Achievers’ Club is no easy feat, which is one of the many reasons why those who make it are our role models. Not only do they exemplify determination and diligence, they are the epitome of leadership and hard work. Check out these stories from some of our Platinum and Diamond Stars around the world.
V Council Member Midhulaj SP
V Council Member and Diamond Star Midhulaj is most-known for achieving Platinum despite the Covid-19 pandemic. Before he joined QNET, between paying his bills and sending money back to his family, all his finances were spoken for. Thanks to QNET, he was able to fulfil his duties towards his family and also secure his future dreams.
“I learnt that to be an Achiever, you need to see the QNET opportunity as what it is – an endless sea of possibilities.”
V Council Member Mohanad Adnan Al Jaraki
V Council Member Mohanad’s life before QNET was an endless routine of working to pay bills. Once he found QNET, his biggest dreams for his life came true. It took him just 21 days to earn his first cheque. Seeing his efforts be rewarded with regular cheques, he decided to join full-time and eventually made his way to becoming a Diamond Star.
“An Achiever works constantly on self-development and following the principles of leadership.”
Achievers’ Club Associate V Partner Nidaa Ryweck
Born to an American dad and a Fijian mom, and currently living in the UAE, Associate V Partner and Platinum Star Nidaa Ryweck has lived an adventure that most people would not be able to boast of in their lifetimes. Since she turned 18, she’d been working several jobs, until she moved on to fully focus on building her QNET business.
“I learnt to work on myself from within, to change internally, and that absolutely nothing is impossible.”
V Council Member Baurzhan Uali
Hailing from a small village in Kazakhstan called Sariozek, V Council Member and Platinum Star Baurzhan Uali was a college student before he heard about direct selling. He had an unquenchable thirst to change his life and so when his brother first introduced him to QNET, there was no looking back.
“I want my team to work on the QNET Opportunity with all their hearts, investing their time and energy and, most importantly, their spirit!”
V Council Members Abid Pottayil & Asma Abid
Power couple, V Council Members and Platinum Stars Abid Pottayil and Asma Abid rose from being constantly worried about their future to thriving in the business. He gave up his career as a mechanical engineer, and she took a leap from being unemployed to being full time in QNET. Despite facing rejections, they stayed resilient, and their hard work has paid off for all the world to see.
