Tom & Elsie Markham are currently Triple Diamond Pearl living in Florida.

Investing in The Team

Eight years ago, Tom and Elsie Markham made a million-dollar decision. "We agreed to try TNI as a health adventure, but we were 100% negative," Tom admits. "I didn't believe TAHITIAN NONI® juice would do even 10% of what I had heard, so I decided to prove it wouldn't work!" Now, a million dollars later, Tom and Elsie can't imagine a day going by without expressing appreciation for the product they, at first, had no faith in.

It took their friend Buddy Delaney five months and 12 days to finally catch Tom's and Elsie's attention. "About that time, someone told me that one of the definitions of insanity is to keep doing what you're doing and expect different results," Tom relates. "I was looking for things to do that I normally wouldn't do." Holding opportunity meetings and talking to others about a health beverage were definitely things that Tom and Elsie had never considered doing.

The Markhams were determined and consistent. Together, they held meetings in their recording studio every Tuesday night for six years. "We knew that by investing in our team, we were investing in our business success," shares Elsie. "We believe in our team and want to keep them informed of all the latest products and opportunities available. We've discovered that if it's good for your business and causes your business to grow, maybe you should spend more," she says.

Over the past eight years, Tom and Elsie have achieved Black Pearl status and developed friendships around the globe.

"The one thing we have learned is that you won't receive the Lifetime Career Achievement Award with only your effort," Elsie explains. "Teams win and individuals lose. The hard work and dedication of our entire Tahitian Noni® family has made this award possible for us."
