Success Stories
Andre and Patty Maronian
Platinum Senior Vice Presidents
The co-founders of 5LINX® would like to congratulate Andre and Patty Maronian on becoming the fourth Platinum SVPs in the company’s history! This promotion is extra special because of the long-term relationship Andre has had with two of the 5LINX co-founders: Jeb Tyler and Jason Guck.
In fact, Jeb and Andre went to the same college and actually built a successful network marketing business together prior to 5LINX®. It was a bittersweet time for these two best friends when they parted ways several years ago. Jason, Jeb and Andre knew that one day they would be working together again and six years later they were. Through a series of events and circumstances, Andre made the decision to begin a 5LINX® business about one year ago. As the long-time friends were reunited in business and purpose, things have really exploded for 5LINX® and the VIP Rebellion team!
Co-founder Jason Guck has stated, “We knew we would be together again, but we never dreamed it would have so great an impact on 5LINX® this fast!” In one year’s time, Andre and Patty have hit the position of Platinum Senior Vice President by bringing over 11,000 new Representatives to the 5LINX® opportunity! In addition, their organization now has over 45,000 customers in it. The VIP Rebellion organization has now produced seven Senior Vice Presidents and two Platinum SVPs in just one year!
The Maronians have three beautiful children and Andre states emphatically, “All of the success we have had in this industry would not be possible without my wonderful wife, Patty, and the support we have had from both of our parents!”
“It takes a lot of sacrifice and commitment to reach PSVP and Andre goes to battle each and every day for his family and his team,” says Jeb Tyler. It is evident that Andre believes in his people and works tirelessly to help others succeed in the 5LINX® opportunity. Jason Guck adds, “In our eyes, Andre and Patty are true champions and we are so happy to welcome them to the prestigious club of Platinum Senior Vice President!”
Andre and Patty Maronian
Senior Vice Presidents
“I am a product of a never quit attitude ... not talent. I’m very competitive, and I finish what I start.“
It’s this attitude that has sustained Andre Maronian from his beginning in network marketing over ten years ago as a part-time pursuit, to his present position as a 5LINX Senior Vice President.
After graduating from the University of Buffalo as an electrical engineer, “it didn’t take long for me to see that my salary and my path for advancement were not going to get me where I wanted to go. I was truly looking for an opportunity that could literally change my life forever.”
Two years later, Andre was introduced to the world of network marketing by a close friend.
“Because of my respect for this person, I agreed to become part of his team and began building my own business.“
Working his full-time engineering job during the day, Andre pursued his own business in his extra time. “After a short time, I was exceeding my earnings in my day job and it became very clear to me that I needed to pursue my network marketing business full-time.”
He made that decision over a Christmas/New Year’s vacation and walked into his boss’s office after the holiday break to tell him of the decision to leave the company to pursue his own business interests. “I must have been very convincing with my explanation because I ended up enrolling him into my business network!”
Andre spent the next nine years building his business and eventually rose to the highest levels of success within the previous company, “I had come a long way in ten years but there was still more to do.”
In that time, as well as building his business, Andre had married and was helping his wife, Patty, to raise their family. They have two daughters Juliana, Tatiana and a son, Gian Carlo.
“My family is my BURNING desire. I can’t lose when I keep them at the forefront of my mind. They are my WHY.”
In January 2007, Andre took a serious look at the 5LINX opportunity. “When I looked at the compensation plan, knowing what I know about network marketing, I knew I had to do this! I knew that I could duplicate what had taken me ten years to build in about one year if I joined 5LINX.”
The opportunity to build a new network, help NEW people experience success in their business and personal lives and achieve long term goals was just too good for Andre to pass up. Within 56 days of joining, Andre was promoted to Senior Vice President, shattering prior company records. Shortly thereafter, he promoted his first SVP within his organization that made it in 52 days, breaking Andre’s record.
“My first five months have been an unbelievable ride. Our team has opened our beautiful new office that lets us bring the opportunity to others. I’m re-energized, and business is growing every day. I never stop pushing for more success and to be the best at what I do. It’s so easy to succeed in 5LINX especially when you know why you are doing what you are doing. The best feeling in the world is watching people on your team succeed that believed in your vision of the future.”
