Our group of 29 business partners from Germany and Switzerland, has returned from an unforgettable incentive trip to Thailand. All participants are still enthusiastic and deeply moved by this very special time.
Tuk tuks, tai chi and street food.
From 18 — 24 May, the colourful ENERGETIX „troop“ immersed themselves in the culture and diversity of Thailand. An exciting and at the same time profound programme with unbelievable highlights awaited them, where the contrasting experiences thrilled everyone and touched the soul.
Whether brunch on the beach, adventures on a catamaran, a visit to a temple, or a street tour with a tuk tuk: luxurious experiences alternated with authentic insights into Thai life.
Emotional moments at the orphanage.
All of us at ENERGETIX are involved with our hearts. For us and our group, it was therefore out of the question to combine this great adventure trip with social commitment. Paying attention to others, meeting everyone at eye level and doing something for others. Because it is humanity that defines us at ENERGETIX!
As a result, the visit to the largest orphanage in Thailand was a highlight of the programme. At a joint lunch with 1,500 children (!), everyone was visibly moved — and also lent a hand. Food was served, windows were cleaned, there was laughter, tears of emotion, smiles and, of course, gifts.
Here, the children are given prospects for the future through school education. We had ENERGETIX products in our luggage, which are intended as motivational gifts to encourage diligent learning, as well as writing materials and toys.
Doing good together. And celebrate.
Bringing people together, networking, cultivating friendships: We succeeded in doing that again on this breathtaking trip. Of course, the fun factor should not be neglected either. Great food, good drinks and a ride on the disco bus — it was a mega trip full of enjoyment, new discoveries and priceless moments for everyone.
At ENERGETIX, we treat outstanding performance with great appreciation. In addition to income from sales and team building, our business partners receive unique incentive trips like this one. They not only benefit from the exchange with the management and each other, but also grow from the experiences and adventures. ENERGETIX trips are simply something very special.
As part of the competition „It’s TEAM time!“, the 25-member winning team had a fantastic time in Porto in the north of Portugal from 10 to 13 April: it was fun, in a great mood, with lots of their own and local singing. The programme included an introduction to the culture of the fado, the song that expresses the Portuguese soul in a unique way all over the world and was even included in the UNESCO list of intangible world cultural heritage in 2011.
Unique like the atmosphere of this song were also the atmospheres that the ENERGETIX business partners were able to experience together with Roland Förster in the city with a rich history: an evening champagne reception on the city’s most beautiful vantage point, a visit to a family-run winery, a guided tour through the secrets of Porto and — as a final, very emotional highlight — the tributes at a perfect sunset. Sounds, atmospheres, experiences that once again distinguish ENERGETIX as unique and that show: It’s worth it to be part of this team.
A trip that took place from 5 to 9 September to the Basque Country on the north coast of Spain that was fantastic in every respect was experienced by the 18 participants, who were also joined by Alexander Link from ENERGETIX’s management and – as a warmly welcomed guest – Dorothé Förster, the founder’s wife.
Bilbao kicked off a whole sequence of travel highlights. The city is considered an insider tip and has developed into a true cultural hotspot with countless sights. Among other things, the group experienced the Azkuna Zentroa Cultural Centre, a former granary with unique Art Nouveau elements and the – probably unique – swimming pool with glass bottom.
Any fan of wine will be familiar with the name of Rioja. ENERGETIX’s travel group got to learn about ‘vertical’ wine-making – a particularly gentle and globally unique production method that preserves the grapes’ original flavour – at the Baigorri vineyard that is located in this region that is famed throughout the world for the wines that are grown there. There was, of course, also some tasting of the wines – accompanied by a really fine sequence of dishes!
San Sebastian will also remain a very fond memory. That’s where many Art-Deco details transport visitors to a different and unique age – something to which the many top restaurants also make a not inconsiderable contribution – world city level. But perhaps it’s preferable to take a stroll through the picturesque cobbled old town to enjoy some pintxos, i.e. Basque tapas, or to take a dip in the very nearby sea with its dream beaches? ENERGETIX’s business partners were spoilt for choice.
And then the Guggenheim Museum! A marvel of limestone and titanium. Star architect Frank O. Gehry has designed and realized a true temple of culture here. And, as an attraction, it has made Bilbao famous. People talk about the ‘Guggenheim effect’, which our group was privileged to experience: Frank O. Gehry’s work has given Bilbao a new face.
And the atmosphere during the trip? Well, this is what one of the participants had to say: “I laughed more on this trip than during the whole of the last few months!” There were also some very intensive exchanges between the participants, particularly about their experiences with online communications. Everyone learned from everyone, with IT Manager Alexander Link being particularly sought-after as the person to talk to.
What remains is the memory of a fantastic trip, an intensive group experience, effective exchange of experiences, personality building through immersion in a neighbouring and rich culture and thus the incentive for everyone of ENERGETIX’s business partners to give their all and qualify at the next competition. After all, the trip is just the ‘icing on the cake’, the ‘cherry’, so to speak; the short-term gain is in higher sales, the long-term gain is in sustainable income from a larger team.
The weather couldn’t have been better and the atmosphere during the whole event was simply great. ENERGETIX invited its best to the STARCLUB meeting that took place from 28 and 30 June in Zandvoort, the Netherlands, during which the city and its surroundings presented themselves from their best sides. The 51 attendees were also simply thrilled and delighted to finally be able to enjoy each other’s friendly company, including that of Roland Förster, Alexander Link and Jessica Schlick, in person.
The event included unusual activities to help the participants exchange experiences and to deepen personal and friendly bonds. One of these activities saw participants taking charge of boats with eight passengers on board to tour the canals of neighbouring Haarlem. Simply the perfect activity for little adventures. Everything turned out well, of course, so everyone was able to fully enjoy the evening barbecue buffet at a beach club that was located right at the beach. Chilling out together while watching the sunset – simply lovely.
The second day revolved around a few sports activities: the STARS were able to experience the Zandvoort Nature Park on e-bikes and enjoy a reinvigorating picnic in the shade by a lake after which they were refreshed and ready for the next adventure: beach sailing on blokarts. The rising wind ensured that the sandy beach soon became a genuine racing track. The STARS really enjoyed themselves. A menu with several courses and a glass of good wine in an award-winning restaurant awaited the members of the STARCLUB who then ended the evening with a great party atmosphere.
The following day was dedicated to a guided tour of the city that also took the participants to some of Haarlem’s lesser-known places and locations. The day ended with a meal in a rustic restaurant that constituted the perfect conclusion to an experience that was highly motivating for all those who took part as well as for all other business partners: the effort required to join the STARCLUB is worthwhile – for business and therefore for income because the ability to discuss experiences with both the best and the management is worth its weight in gold as are the opportunities to develop personally through social and friendly get-togethers – particularly in these difficult times.
On 18 June and in a great
atmosphere, ENERGETIX launched into its new 2022 / 2023 season with an
all-round inspiring Collection Premiere. This year’s online event was streamed
from Joey Kelly’s farm. Roland Förster welcomed several guests as well as many
business partners and customers who were present at the venue with an
optimistic and positive look into the future.
But there actually wasn’t just one Collection Premiere – there were more than 30 – because many business partners had taken up the idea of individually organizing their own personal public screenings of the event.
As the live links to these individual events repeatedly demonstrated: the atmosphere there was just as fantastic – and characterized by just as much enthusiasm about the new products, which the business partners and customers there were able to experience directly in the organizers’ gardens and on their premises at the same time they were being presented on the Kelly farm.
This year’s catalogue
features several innovations, as introduced by Alexander Link. It showcases
jewellery and wellness articles that will simply make people want more. QR
codes will then direct the prospective customers to ENERGETIX’s online world as
well as to more information and reports about styling, wellness and so on –
areas where customer interest is already tangible. It’s setting a new dynamic
in motion that will take advantage of the new channels of communication while
adapting to customers’ changing purchasing behaviour.
Andrea Hönnemann explained how the new communication tools may be successfully employed to book parties and build teams. In discussions with business partners who shared their recent successes and with newcomers who were from the start able to successfully take advantage of the new communication tools, the sales expert presented the new way of communicating with customers and prospects in a clear and comprehensible fashion.
They count among the best in the company in sales, team-building and overall performance. That’s why they deserve very special recognition: the members of the STARCLUB and the ONEYEARSTARCLUB. Jessica Schlick praised the outstanding achievements of the STARS, who are role models for ENERGETIX’s entire family.
ENERGETIX was again this year able to present a check for € 50,000.00 to Hugo and Liesje Tempelman and so continue its support for the Dutch couple’s extraordinary work in South Africa. The donation came from the sale of ENERGETIX’s best-seller – MagnetHeart – and a top-up by sole shareholder and CEO Roland Förster. The funds will help run a centre for the disabled and, as Hugo Tempelman said in a very emotional speech, is a particularly important help in the country.
‘An Angel’ was the song performed together by Kathy and Joey Kelly and presenter Menna Mulugeta and it also went straight to the heart. Menna lived up to her fans’ expectations throughout the entire event and was once again the perfect host.
A very special thank-you goes to ENERGETIX’s brand ambassador Joey Kelly, who generously put his family’s farm at our disposal for the Collection Premiere – a perfect location, also for the concluding fantastic and almost romantic time spent around the camp fire, which guests enjoyed very much.
The magnificent atmosphere at the Kelly farm and the great enthusiasm at the many individual events around the country sent a clear signal: ENERGETIX is ready for the future and is launching into the new season with lots of positive energy.
The training trip to Montenegro, which took place from 18 to 21 May, was characterized by a fantastic atmosphere. A total of 24 travellers were just happy to finally be able to enjoy an ENERGETIX trip, which qualification in the ‘BAM – BE A MENTOR!’ competition had made possible, again after the long interruption.
The mentors enjoyed excellent weather as they became acquainted with a country in the Balkans that, with its Mediterranean flair and charm, delighted even those already really familiar with Adriatic and Mediterranean. They also enjoyed the beautiful green outdoors with spectacular adventure worlds and climate zones that range across the entire bandwidth to be experienced in Europe – from Mediterranean to continental to alpine.
The programme was accordingly varied: hiking through the mountain landscape at the Lovcen National Park with its villages steeped in history, travelling by boat to the fjords in the Bay of Boka and visiting the Konavle Valley close to the border where the three countries of Montenegro, Bosnia, and Herzegovina meet – an area famous for its culinary specialities and excellent wines.
The experience was one thing – the other was the long-missed opportunity to enjoy swapping notes in person with each other and with Managing Director Alexander Link. All the mentors had qualified on the basis of their special achievements and were able to share their experiences with highly interested listeners. The training trip was naturally also the ideal opportunity to properly honour and personally recognize the participants’ special achievements.
An expanded team, top-class exchanges and a unique travel experience: BAM was worthwhile and again showed all business partners what’s possible with ENERGETIX.
The get-together was conceived as part of ENERGETIX’s comprehensive motivational programme and was the first of its kind. Partners who are active in team-building and are bringing new business partners into the fold were invited to Bingen to experience directly what, among other things, the company is all about:
Management up close
Roland Förster and Jessica Schlick welcomed their guests at the NH Hotel on the banks of the Rhine. The two talked about how optimistically they saw the future for those attending. And they’re planning to welcome twice the number of guests at the next NEWSTARS get-together.
Efficient training with motivational boost
The training session with sales specialist Andrea Hönnemann, who outlined her strategy for ‘growing successfully with ENERGETIX’, was a step towards achieving that goal. The day was more focused on team-building because the products virtually sell themselves.
Strengthening the personality and reinforcing the team as well as very concrete tips for winning business partners that could be put into practice right away – these were the topics that were explored from a variety of perspectives, whereby the experiences that the NEWSTARS had already gained were made an important point in the dialogue.
The participants were able to get to know each other and benefit from the mutual exchange.
Celebrity contact with Joey Kelly – up close and ‘without bounds’
As always, full of energy, likeable and inspiring! That’s how ENERGETIX business partners love THEIR Joey, who visibly felt at home in the company of the NEWSTARS. It’s possible to apply the principles of his ‘no limits’ approach, which allows him to keep on achieving new goals as an extreme sports personality, to the business of ENERGETIX and is always invaluable to partners.
A spirit that unites all
On their tour of the departments at the company’s building, the NEWSTARS were also able to see a company that’s perfectly set up to support them. But, more importantly, although most of the employees are still currently working from home, the visitors were able to meet some of the enthusiastic staff, who are dedicated to helping THEIR business partners and who show every day that everyone can always be approached and that they’re also there for everyone else.
Optimism, motivation and a great atmosphere characterized the mood at this first NEWSTARS event, which reached its social climax on Thursday evening with a sparkling-wine reception, sterling food, awards and a great party – a clear signal that network marketing is well on the road to recovery.
ENERGETIX is already looking forward to the next NEWSTARS.
ENERGETIX’s proprietor Roland Förster drew attention to a special anniversary at the event to kick off the year on 15 January 2022: the company’s 20th anniversary! The motto of the year sets the agenda and goal for how we intend to continue: ‘WEWILLRISE!’
The long list of business partners who’ve been with ENERGETIX from the outset – many of whom are still among the company’s top business partners – demonstrated right at the start of the event that long and continuous careers are possible with ENERGETIX.
Flexibility among business partners and companies has made an important contribution, especially during the last two years, which have been marked by the challenges that communicating online presents. “Digitalization has picked up speed and will continue,” Roland Förster said.
Newcomers and new sales expert
The new online business tools are being utilized to their full effect by the successful newcomers who were introduced by Alexander Link. Sales expert Andrea Hönnemann, who joined the company in August 2021, set out how especially important our mindset is – and not only for newcomers: “Look for like-minded people and live your enthusiasm! Things can only be good when you’re enthusiastic.” And her tip for online business: “Be curious and discover your potential!”
The awards: highly emotional
The awards with which Jessica Schlick and Alexander Link produced surprise and moments full of touching emotions not only among the winners represented a clear indication that ENERGETIX has successfully adapted to the changed circumstances. Such outstanding accomplishments as ‘10 years of ENERGETIX’, goals achieved, personal sales volumes, team-building and, of course, STARCLUB membership were recognized. Two business partners, Biba Marseglia and Wolfgang Düsener, who are always open to new opportunities and who, among other things, make particularly exemplary use of online communications, were interviewed.
Creating a business by building teams
“He’s passionate about what he does,” says coach Tobias Schlosser of Wolfgang Düsener. “His subconscious competence means that he can’t help himself.” There are no secrets to achieving success. “The key is deep identification with the subject matter – with the great product and the great business.” Whereby Schlosser naturally placed the emphasis on the business. “Talking about the product will win you customers; talking about the system’s benefits will win you business partners and create the opportunity for you to build up your own business.”
With fire and passion: Joey Kelly
Joey Kelly – brand ambassador for ENERGETIX – focused both on team spirit and a mental attitude that builds on both ‘fire and passion’. “You need a strong team to be successful,” said the artist and extreme sports personality, who’ll soon be heading off on his big tours again. But he also draws on his experience to remind us that every day is precious. Even more so in the current situation. “Use the time now to build up strength!” And never “lose the fire”, just like AC/DC, Joey’s favourite band, who, at the age of 70+, still rock the stage like they did in their 20s.
Heart and sunshine: the new jewellery
Joey’s advice is right in line with the year’s motto, ‘WEWILLRISE!’. Two new small spring collections with exclusive magnetic jewellery constitute the foundation for ENERGETIX’s launch into its next chapter and its second decade. ‘Follow your Heart!’ and ‘Sunshine on my Mind.’ There are two flyers for presentations to customers along with the corresponding online material that’s available for personalization. The motto-based competition defines variously weighted targets and is intended to help kick-start and develop careers.
Great incentive: Menna Mulugeta
New jewellery, motivation, training and awards were, of course, the highlights of the event staged to kick off the year and that was broadcast online from a studio in Mainz. Menna Mulugeta, our singing host, contributed enormously to the fantastic atmosphere on the day. The former ‘Voice of Germany’ contestant is today hugely popular with a wide audience and was available for our event on Saturday. Her appearance full of passion, power, temperament and enthusiasm should be an incentive to all of us. Thank you, Menna!
Many business partners
were able draw additional motivation from the online collage training with
Ulrich Lang and Biserka Marseglia that took place the next day. The visualized
goals make us optimistic that ‘WEWILLRISE!’

What our travellers to the Amazon have just experienced from 22 October to 2 November can hardly be put into words: “It was indescribable, an entirely different world, the vegetation, the people, the sounds! None of us could stop ourselves from frequently welling up! By far the best trip I have ever been on!”
We could continue with such superlatives. The group already experienced
the first highlight on the second day close to where they had arrived, i.e. in
Bogotá: a salt cathedral with a nave and two aisles, 180 metres deep in a
former salt mine – gigantic!
And then it was off to the great Amazon adventure with Hervé Neukomm.
The Swiss national who turned his back on conventions has been living the ‘pura
vida’ in the jungle for many years. On his 240-hectare property, the Resort
Habitat Sur, he and his wife work on different environmental and cultural
projects that are aimed at protecting the rainforest and its inhabitants. The
ideal guide for ENERGETIX’s trip!
Joey Kelly was another personality who shaped this journey. He’s a fan
of ENERGETIX and had already made the trip to the Amazon region three years ago
during which he was very touched by the unique nature, the people and Hervé’s
desire to protect the Amazon rainforest. Joey’s trip was the inspiration for
this prize for ENERGETIX’s competition and he was happy to seize the
opportunity to return to this special place in the company of our business
partners.
A journey without roads. Distances were covered by speedboat or canoe.
Or on foot! There couldn’t be a more intensive way of experiencing the jungle.
The routes took the participants across difficult terrain, through mud and
along paths with many obstacles. The trips were interrupted with breaks for
bathing in the middle of the jungle – with spontaneous mud packs.
Spontaneous and unplanned was also the encounter with an old healer, who
was summoned by the inhabitants of a village as a minor injury had been
suffered and whose personality and her sincere intervention made a very
profound impression.
The qualifiers were able to get up close to the animals at a rescue
station for injured animals. The encounter with an anaconda may well be
described as sensational, even if the staff did say it was ‘tame’.
The adventurers got some time to relax briefly with music and dance at a
typical village in the middle of the jungle before returning to Bogotá via
Leticia after a trip to an animal reserve. This is where the group experienced
why this city of millions is internationally famous for its graffiti.
The closing highlight was a visit to a family-run ecologically
sustainable coffee plantation. These were definitely the first coffee beans to
be harvested directly by ENERGETIX business partners.
‘Pura vida’ — the qualifiers for the ‘Pure Nature’ prize were able to gain a small but intensive impression of this special lifestyle and it certainly provided lots of food for thought in regard to their own lifestyles on their return home. A trip that once again emphasized the special and exclusive nature of ENERGETIX’s competitions and demonstrated how much the company appreciates its business partners.
A total of 39 STARCLUB members met with
ENERGETIX’s management on the beautiful Mediterranean island of Malta from 1 to
3 October. It was the first trip since the beginning of the pandemic for many
of the participants.
After arriving on the Friday, the STARS were taken straight to Hotel-Resort Dolmen that’s located on the beach front. A bus then took the participants for their evening meal to Valletta, the island’s capital. The participants were given the opportunity to take a walk through the historic old town and explore its narrow streets that were decorated with fairy lights and filled with music and the aroma of Maltese cuisine.
The next
day was reserved for activities, fun and teamwork. So the participants were
taken by ferry to the island of Gozo where a small fleet of old off-road
vehicles awaited for a special island rally. The travellers were divided into
eight teams and given a short briefing before they set off for their very own
island adventures with individual schedules.
The goal
was to find their way across the island by using the schedules and solving
questions and tasks along the way. Driving on the narrow, sometimes unpaved
roads with the old cars was a challenge in itself. So this team challenge
wasn’t lacking in adrenaline and fun. A unique experience that none of the
participants will ever forget so quickly.
Everyone
was given the chance to recover from the exciting day and spend some time on
the beach or do a bit of shopping in the city in the late afternoon before it
was time for the exclusive evening meal that was being served at Restaurant
Café del Mar. The winners of the rally were celebrated in the modern ambience.
The exquisite meal was complemented with cake to celebrate the birthday of one
of the participants. In spite of the corona-related ban on dancing, it was a
successful evening, which some of the travellers found themselves bringing to
close at the beach bar.
The next
morning, the last one before departure, provided the time and scope for an
intensive exchange with the management. In the bright sunshine and with a
buffet lunch to follow, everyone was given the opportunity to address important
topics that would help shape new developments at ENERGETIX.
The international STARCLUB meeting not only provided the setting for a great reunion that was characterized by lots of fun, good food and long-awaited personal exchanges, it was also a total success.
