Phil Gerdes Joins Modere, Achieves Elite One

 

A born entrepreneur, Phil Gerdes has been designing his life to be centered around his family, even before he had his own family to support.

“My hobbies are my family,” says Phil Gerdes. “It sounds corny, but it’s the truth. Networking is the reason I have the ability to design my own life. I don’t believe in doing anything just to do it, there has to be a purpose for it. I’m in direct sales for my family.”

From the very beginning of his time in network marketing, Phil made it a point to focus on other people.

“I made a decision on New Year’s Eve years ago that I was going to change my life and tie it all in to people,” recalls Phil. “I said, ‘I’m going to do everything for other people for one year straight.’ I committed to doing the most extreme things for other people and a year and a half later I had completely changed my life.”

Although he’s had ups and downs in both his personal and professional life, Phil has never let those get in the way of his goals.

“I didn’t walk into this business expecting this to be easy,” said Phil Gerdes. “If I emotionally connect to the end game, then the roller coaster is just how I get to my goal. I tell everyone that there is an amazing power inside of people that everyone can accomplish anything in their life that they set out to do.”

He applies this positive outlook on life to building his team at Modere too.

“There were three things that attracted me to Modere, the common sense of the products, the marketing plan for an authentic customer experience, and the compensation plan,” said Phil Gerdes. “I love that because of the customer acquisition focus we are paying people for what they are worth at Modere.”

In his first months at Modere, Phil has achieved the rank of Elite 1 and continues to grow every day. Continuing his focus on others, Phil’s goals and future plans with Modere are all focused on making sure his team hits their goals.

“We’ve made the decision to completely dominate all things Modere,” he said. “We’re excited to do more than we ever did before. The more we share it the better.”
