Success Stories
Jamie and Donna Woolard
Senior Vice Presidents
Jamie and Donna Woolard started their 5LINX business on January 8, 2007, after being with another company for more than eleven years. “We loved the industry and had become one of the top producers for several years,” says Donna. “Even though we achieved many awards and set many records, the best part of our journey was helping thousands of others succeed!” added Jamie.
In December of 2006 a close friend and business associate brought them the 5LINX opportunity. “At first, I was hesitant because I was loyal and committed to our previous company. However, Jamie reminded me that I had been praying for some time that something would come into our lives and make a difference.” Donna continues, “We had to take the emotion out of the picture and look at the business side. It was then that we met with the owners and saw the most lucrative marketing plan we had ever seen!” Along with the marketing plan, they were impressed with the product offerings and worldwide opportunity 5LINX presented. “They were truly putting together a company that would set industry records for years to come!” exclaimed Donna.
There have been obstacles along the way to achieving SVP in under six months; but it has definitely been worth it. 5LINX has dramatically changed our lives! We have earned our dream car, a 650i BMW, moved into a new home which allows us to care for my father and a sixteen year old niece! They have also added a new office/training center in Kansas City. “We now have the freedom to do what we want whenever we want! Seeing others have success and fulfilling their dreams is what we are most proud!”
Jamie and Donna have been married for 33 years. They are very involved with their church and do everything they can to give back. “We are blessed in every way because of our Lord,” continues Donna.
Donna was an educator for 25 years, working with at-risk youth. She works tirelessly with her literacy foundation which she co-founded with the late Derrick Thomas of the Kansas City Chiefs. Donna passionately says, “We are beginning our 18th year and are very proud of our accomplishments for all of the youth we have and are serving in the community.” The Woolards also helped raise their nephew, who just graduated from college and is in the business working towards National Director.
5LINX is the perfect business for the Woolards. It allows them to continue doing what they love to do—travel, entertain-socialize with friends, and work in their church—while building a life changing business. Jamie loves country music, fast friends and race cars, Donna loves traveling ,hanging out on great beaches, spending time with friends, shopping, reading, and listening to personal growth materials. “My greatest inspiration to succeed is to make sure that I leave this earth a much better place by helping others and giving back to my family and others in need. We believe 5LINX will impact the world because of their products and services but more importantly because of the quality of people.”
Their words of encouragement for anyone building the 5LINX business include the following:
- Don’t be afraid to DREAM
