Nate Ridgeway

16 years ago as a college kid, I got involved with Excel Communications through an old college buddy of my dad's. Thank God I didn't know that I was supposed to be skeptical!!! I struggled at first, but with training started receiving some significant checks in my campus mailbox. The very public and very verbal excitement alarmed everyone to my success!! Before long, I had a growing team with momentum, and earned $8,200 in ONE NIGHT! Trust me...making that kind of money in ONE DAY never leaves you. I was hooked on MLM for life!

However, I met a very beautiful young lady at college (my wife Robin), and before too long, business went on the back burner. Unfortunately, Network Marketing faded into the past for a season of time. Marriage, kids, bills and work occupied my time, until the "real world" became more than I could handle. At one point I found myself 237lbs due to stress and frustration. 6 years ago, I woke up one day and was working 4 jobs trying to "chase the dream." Talk about rat race - I felt like a gerbil on the little wheel, running...running...running...but getting NO WHERE!

Enter...once again...my dad's old college friend, with another "opportunity." LOL And after all the money I had made those years ago as a college kid, I had the audacity to say, "I don't have any money, and I don't have any time!" To which he responded, "Nate...if you keep doing what you're doing right now, you're going to keep getting what your getting." I pulled out credit card #6 (5 were maxed out, including a $10,000 Citibank card on 32.9% interest), and used the last little bit of space on that card to get started in business for myself.

6 months later, I had built a team of 635 distributors. 1 year after that (18 months in) that team had grown to more than 3,000, and I hit a passive 6 figure income for the first time. Now it didn't come easy! Contrary to all the misleading ads out there about the Network Marketing business, I did work hard...I did talk to my family and friends...I did talk to strangers...I did call leads...I did EVERYTHING and ANYTHING it took to GET THE JOB DONE. And I did. I got the job done.

Now that's the short version of a very long 16 year career, but all of that to say this: "If I can do it...anyone can! YOU can. And I can help you!" Whether you're looking to partner in a business, or would like success coaching for the business you are already in, I'm here to help! God bless all of your endeavors!
