Sat­ur­day, 21 Jan­u­ary, was the day to kick off the year for our busi­ness part­ners in Den­mark at an event that was staged in Slagelse and orga­nized by Inge Møller Nielsen.

Full of antic­i­pa­tion, they accept­ed the invi­ta­tion from our long-stand­ing ENERGETIX busi­ness part­ner to trav­el to the Hotel Antvorskov and joint­ly ring in ENER­GETIX’s new busi­ness year and find moti­va­tion and inspi­ra­tion for their businesses.

Roland Förster, Sole Share­hold­er and CEO, along with Jes­si­ca Schlick, CMO, attend­ed by a live video link: they warm­ly wel­comed the busi­ness part­ners in Den­mark, pre­sent­ed news from the com­pa­ny and gave detailed answers to the ques­tions that inter­est­ed par­tic­i­pants asked.

The pre­sen­ta­tion of the excit­ed­ly await­ed new col­lec­tion of mag­net­ic jew­ellery for SPRING / SUMMER 2017 was one of the even­t’s high­lights. Inja, the new dietary sup­ple­ment, also attract­ed lots of inter­est. It was dealt with in a pre­sen­ta­tion by ENERGETIX that pro­vid­ed lots of details about the new product.

ENER­GETIX’s high­ly antic­i­pat­ed event to kick off the new year was staged under the mot­to of ‘Love your future!’ at the pop­u­lar win­ter-sports resort of Will­in­gen on the third week­end of January.

As the snow, which turned the Sauer­land region into an unfor­get­table white win­ter won­der­land, con­tin­ued to fall, around 450 busi­ness part­ners from all over Ger­many arrived to ush­er in the new busi­ness year for ENERGETIX.

Roland Förster’s warmest of wel­comes to the offi­cial event to kick off the year was fol­lowed by moti­va­tion­al thoughts relat­ing to the new mot­to for 2017: Love your future!

The event con­tin­ued in an infor­ma­tive and enter­tain­ing style with Joey Kel­ly and the new sportEX bracelets. Joey talked about ENER­GETIX’s par­tic­i­pa­tion in the RTL tele­vi­sion chan­nel’s telethon dur­ing which he had been giv­en the exclu­sive oppor­tu­ni­ty to wear the new sportEX bracelet. It was clear that Joey is absolute­ly thrilled with the sil­i­cone bracelets that come with inte­grat­ed mag­nets and that are avail­able in two colours. He liked the fact that they were so strong and sta­ble but were still so pleas­ant to wear. Joey revealed that he’s already look­ing for­ward to more sports chal­lenges at which he’ll be wear­ing the sportEX bracelets (he also con­tin­ues to wear them every day)!

By the way, the par­tic­i­pants at Will­in­gen were giv­en the exclu­sive oppor­tu­ni­ty to pur­chase the new sportEX bracelets before their launch along with caps and key rings bear­ing ENER­GETIX’s logo and lots more.

Stars over Will­in­gen: awards for the best
Be it the e‑bike tour through Rhein­hessen, the climb­ing trip to the Mit­tel­rhein-Steig, the explo­ration of Stras­bourg or the sail­ing excur­sion in Berlin: the attend­ing STARCLUB mem­bers were asked on to the stage to be hon­oured sin­cere­ly for their spe­cial per­for­mances while atmos­pher­ic pho­tos of STARCLUB events from pre­vi­ous and real­ly suc­cess­ful years were being shown.

Pre­miere no. I: SPRING / SUMMER 2017 collection
One of the even­t’s high­lights was def­i­nite­ly the high­ly antic­i­pat­ed pre­sen­ta­tion of the new SPRING / SUMMER  2017 col­lec­tion  that was intro­duced by two jew­ellery design­ers from Bin­gen. The response to the new jew­ellery cre­ations based on major inter­na­tion­al trends could­n’t have been bet­ter. The revised well­ness brochure with Mag­ne­tRe­lax mask and the new set of pieces for ani­mals were wel­comed by the audi­ence. The busi­ness part­ners were then able to exam­ine the new prod­ucts up close at the jew­ellery stand.

‘Col­lec­tion on Tour’ suc­cess story
In view of 2016’s suc­cess­ful pre­miere, Jes­si­ca Schlick announced that the new col­lec­tion will be going on tour again to resound­ing applause. In 2017, the new prod­ucts will be stop­ping over in Ger­many, France, Aus­tria, Switzer­land and the Nether­lands!    

Pre­miere no. II: devel­oped for ENERGETIX – Inja, the new dietary supplement
Then it was time to present the announced new prod­uct: Inja, the dietary sup­ple­ment devel­oped espe­cial­ly for ENERGETIX!

The trail­er that was shown at the event offered an ini­tial pre­view before every­one was then able to join in and shake the bot­tles before tast­ing what was in them.

ENER­GETIX’s Prod­uct Inno­va­tion Team with Jes­si­ca Schlick, Andreas Förster and Lisa Michaelis pro­vid­ed a detailed intro­duc­tion to the new­ly devel­oped product.

Addi­tion­al infor­ma­tion was also pre­sent­ed direct­ly from the prod­uct devel­op­er, Dr Eugen Beck­er, who had trav­elled to the venue specif­i­cal­ly to attend the launch of Inja and share all the back­ground infor­ma­tion about the dietary sup­ple­ment and its ingre­di­ents with the busi­ness partners.

The response in Will­in­gen to Inja, the unique dietary sup­ple­ment con­tain­ing turmer­ic, green tea and Q10, was so pos­i­tive that noth­ing can now stand in the way of a suc­cess­ful mar­ket launch by the busi­ness partners.

Sales news
Alexan­der Link, CIO, took the stage to talk about sales news. In a way that was easy for every­one to fol­low, he explored, among oth­er things, the new cus­tomer-man­age­ment sys­tem (CRM) for sales, the ENERGETIX prod­uct app and oth­er impor­tant tools that will pro­vide even bet­ter sup­port to busi­ness part­ners in future.

Pro­fes­sion­al train­ing with Daniel Enz
Daniel Enz from Switzer­land explored the ques­tion of whether there was such a thing as ‘born sell­ers’ – some­thing that is of par­tic­u­lar inter­est to net­work mar­ket­ing. The ‘red-shoed train­er’ pre­sent­ed many use­ful tips (for exam­ple, to active­ly prac­tise sell­ing) and deliv­ered a great moti­va­tion­al boost in a very enter­tain­ing, inter­ac­tive and amus­ing way.Hon­our to whom hon­our is due: the awards
‘Love your future!’ – many ENERGETIX new­com­ers had already put the cur­rent mot­to into action with­out being aware of it. And their activ­i­ties were rec­og­nized in Will­in­gen: the three best new­com­ers in the PSV cat­e­go­ry who’d been active and whose career had rock­et­ed since the Col­lec­tion Pre­miere in Berlin were all spe­cial­ly hon­oured as were their mentors.

Pre­miere no. III: pre­sen­ta­tion of the new competition
The par­tic­i­pants were par­tic­u­lar­ly excit­ed about the pre­sen­ta­tion of the restyled com­pe­ti­tion that is being launched under the mot­to of ‘Love Your Busi­ness’. Jes­si­ca Schlick showed that suc­cess­ful busi­ness part­ners were now able to choose from a broad range of inter­est­ing rewards. These includ­ed an iPad Air and a pro­fes­sion­al train­ing ses­sion with a top coach! But no com­pe­ti­tion with­out the oppor­tu­ni­ty of being able to take part in a mag­nif­i­cent trip. Petra Schme­ing, ENER­GETIX’s Event Man­ag­er, who is already known to many from the numer­ous trips that she orga­nizes and man­ages on loca­tion, pre­sent­ed this sec­tion of the event. To the accom­pa­ni­ment of impres­sive pho­tos of nature, she announced that some peo­ple’s dreams are going to be real­ized: par­tic­i­pants will be trav­el­ling to Ice­land! The qual­i­fy­ing peri­od clos­es at the end of April so there’s still lots of time to build up points!

Roland Förster, Sole Share­hold­er and CEO, once again took the oppor­tu­ni­ty in his talk that con­clud­ed the offi­cial part to look back on this event­ful day: a day that had delight­ed participants.

For a good cause
Through­out the day, par­tic­i­pants were able to pur­chase raf­fle tick­ets, the pro­ceeds of which were donat­ed to the Rabindra Puri Foun­da­tion in Nepal. The win­ners of the prizes – splen­did jew­ellery sets – were announced short­ly before the evening meal.

The evening then pre­sent­ed the oppor­tu­ni­ty for par­tic­i­pants to exchange expe­ri­ences and re-estab­lish already exist­ing con­tacts, to make new ones and even renew friend­ships at the buf­fet that offered a wide vari­ety of delicacies.

All round­ed off with music and dancing!
Charged with ener­gy from the day’s events, every­body then let their hair down at the par­ty that fol­lowed. The DJ was able to lure the par­tic­i­pants on to the dance floor (and tables) with pop­u­lar hits. ENER­GETIX’s busi­ness part­ners par­tied right into the night in cel­e­bra­tion of them­selves and the suc­cess­ful event!

We thank all those who con­tributed on stage and back­stage to mak­ing this event anoth­er unfor­get­table experience!

Why not take a look at what hap­pened? Here are the pho­tos for you!

Already an estab­lished insti­tu­tion that takes place ahead of ENER­GETIX’s event to kick off the year: the cre­ative goal-defin­ing col­lage train­ing in Will­in­gen! Every­one was cut­ting and glu­ing like mad on Friday.

Noth­ing was left out, from per­son­al devel­op­ment through trips of a life­time to dream cars from the ENERGETIXDri­ve pro­gramme! The cre­ative goal-defin­ing col­lage train­ing with the expe­ri­enced busi­ness part­ners, Ulrich Lang and Biba Marseglia, helped par­tic­i­pants become more aware of their actu­al goals and so help them become bet­ter able to work towards them in future.

The set­ting of per­son­al goals and visu­al­i­sa­tion is seen as an impor­tant instru­ment in the achieve­ment of one’s own dreams and the ful­fil­ment of one’s own expec­ta­tions. And the par­tic­i­pants‘ suc­cess­es speak for themselves.

Our thanks go to the orga­niz­ers who once again pulled out all the stops to sup­port the par­tic­i­pants with advice and help at all times.

We’ve put togeth­er a few impres­sions of the day in an on-line pho­to album for you.

ENER­GETIX’s French-speak­ing busi­ness part­ners met on 7 Jan­u­ary in the first cal­en­dar week to kick off the year. More than 70 par­tic­i­pants from France, Switzer­land and Moroc­co had accept­ed ENER­GETIX’s invi­ta­tion and come along to ring in the new busi­ness year for 2017. We’d like to thank Josette Desas­sis and Anke Hesse-Michaelis at this point for prepar­ing and organ­is­ing the event and for their sup­port on location!

Roland Förster, ENER­GETIX’s Sole Share­hold­er and Own­er; Jes­si­ca Schlick, CMO, and Petra Schme­ing, Event Man­ag­er, had also trav­elled to the east of France to report the lat­est devel­op­ments with­in the com­pa­ny and to set the mood of the French-speak­ing busi­ness part­ners for ENER­GETIX’s new year with the new mot­to, ‘Love your future!’

Andrea Nahles and Roland Förster

Andrea Nahles vis­it­ed ENER­GETIX’s Bin­gen head­quar­ters in Octo­ber last year. The Fed­er­al Ger­man Min­is­ter for Labour was not only delight­ed with the exclu­sive design­er jew­ellery but also with the work­ing con­di­tions that ENER­GETIX’s busi­ness part­ners enjoy.

No won­der that the min­is­ter was not only impressed but also sur­prised when she vis­it­ed. The prin­ci­ples that have gov­erned the suc­cess­ful activ­i­ties of ENER­GETIX’s busi­ness part­ners for years sat­is­fy almost all the require­ments that her min­istry has now set out in its White Paper about Change in the World of Employ­ment, which was pub­lished at the end of November.

And, accord­ing to the White Paper*, the fol­low­ing list sets out just a few of the things that appli­cants will want from the best jobs in the future:

• • Flex­i­ble work­ing hours
  • Home office instead of com­pul­so­ry presence
  • Com­pat­i­bil­i­ty between career and family
  • Appre­ci­a­tion
  • Work-life bal­ance
  • Fur­ther qual­i­fi­ca­tion in com­put­er-based skills
  • Per­son­al fulfilment
  • Hap­pi­ness, sat­is­fac­tion, self-fulfilment
  • Mean­ing and joy
  • Fun at work

This wish list for future jobs reads like an insid­er’s descrip­tion of the con­di­tions that ENER­GETIX’s busi­ness part­ners already enjoy. It’s good for all busi­ness part­ners to know that they’re work­ing in an envi­ron­ment that oth­ers can only dream of, par­tic­u­lar­ly in this group­ing of require­ments. Near­ly all of the tar­gets set out in the min­istry’s White Paper apply to the ENERGETIX job. So the next time you want to per­suade a prospec­tive busi­ness part­ner with pow­er­ful argu­ments, you can do so with the min­istry’s help. We could have hard­ly wished for bet­ter sup­port­ing arguments.

*The Fed­er­al Min­istry of Labour and Social Affairs has pub­lished a White Paper to doc­u­ment a broad­er dis­cus­sion in soci­ety about ‘Work 4.0’ and to explore how soci­ety could struc­ture work in the future.

Social respon­si­bil­i­ty and the hunt for world records – how do they go togeth­er? ENERGETIX does not only design and sell high-qual­i­ty design­er jew­ellery with inte­grat­ed mag­nets but also always gives its busi­ness part­ners the oppor­tu­ni­ty to take part in extra­or­di­nary events and to expe­ri­ence very spe­cial and emo­tion­al moments with­in the team.

On ²⁴⁄₂₅ Novem­ber, for instance, a group of ENERGETIX busi­ness part­ners were able to take part in the 24-hour bike chal­lenge at the RTL tele­vi­sion chan­nel’s telethon and then break a world record: Joey Kel­ly, extreme sports per­son­al­i­ty and enthu­si­as­tic sportEX fan, joined the ENERGETIX team and 25 oth­er com­pa­ny teams to cycle for 24 hours on spin­ning bikes to gen­er­ate elec­tric­i­ty that was then sold with the pro­ceeds going to a good cause … the ‘RTL – Wir helfen Kindern’ foun­da­tion. They were even able to break the world record for the ‘largest amount of elec­tric­i­ty gen­er­at­ed by mus­cle pow­er on sta­tion­ary bikes’! Congratulations!

“Phys­i­cal­ly I feel quite good. I had a low dur­ing the night but every­one here cheered me on. I’m so grate­ful to be a part of the telethon,” Joey said hap­pi­ly as he climbed from his spin­ning bike for the first time in 24 hours.And the busi­ness part­ners also enjoyed the phys­i­cal­ly chal­leng­ing mega-event and bask in the feel­ing of hav­ing con­quered it as a team and hav­ing made an impor­tant con­tri­bu­tion to a good cause.

This way to the photos!

Jes­si­ca Schlick, mem­ber of ENER­GETIX’s man­age­ment, was even live in RTL’s stu­dio to hand over the funds col­lect­ed by ENERGETIX to the host, Wol­fram Kons, who accept­ed on behalft of the ‘RTL – Wir helfen Kindern’ char­i­ty: sym­bol­i­cal­ly in the shape of one of ENER­GETIX’s mag­net­ic bracelets in which the total had been engraved – a mag­nif­i­cent 70,000 euros!

Char­i­ty has always been and is of spe­cial impor­tance to Roland Förster. So ENER­GETIX’s founder was par­tic­u­lar­ly hap­py to be able to make a deci­sive con­tri­bu­tion to the foun­da­tion’s projects as one of the main spon­sors of the 24-hour bike challenge.

Joey Kel­ly, who is a friend of the busi­ness, and the 26 high­ly moti­vat­ed com­pa­ny teams that took on the chal­lenge gen­er­at­ed funds totalling 733,000 euros this year!   RTL’s 21^st telethon, the longest char­i­ty show on Ger­man TV, gen­er­at­ed a remark­able sum of 7.8 mil­lion euros to help chil­dren in need.

Twen­ty-five mem­bers from Chris­tine Le Ridan­t’s very suc­cess­ful team accept­ed her invi­ta­tion to trav­el to La Fer­rière near Nantes on 18 Sep­tem­ber to expe­ri­ence an infor­ma­tive and enter­tain­ing week­end in Brit­tany together!

The meet­ing was kicked off with feed­back about the Col­lec­tion Pre­miere in Berlin. Using a Pow­er­Point pre­sen­ta­tion, Renée Piguet shared all the news and high­lights of the impres­sive event in Berlin with those who were unfor­tu­nate­ly unable to attend at the end of August. The pre­sen­ta­tion of ENER­GETIX’s new col­lec­tion of mag­net­ic jew­ellery, which was very well received by the par­tic­i­pants, con­sti­tut­ed anoth­er high­light at the meet­ing. “Every­body just LOVED the new col­lec­tion,” said Renée Piguet.

Around 30 busi­ness part­ners from the Nether­lands and Ger­many trav­elled to Major­ca from 11 to 14 Octo­ber. They were invit­ed because of the con­vinc­ing results they had achieved dur­ing the activ­i­ty peri­od between May and July 2016. Because suc­cess is always appre­ci­at­ed at ENERGETIX.

This way to the photos!

The par­tic­i­pants were not only able to enjoy the splen­did nat­ur­al sights, they were also able to explore the Mediter­ranean cul­ture that exists on the pop­u­lar hol­i­day island. And this explo­ration was kicked off with a tasty tapas tour dur­ing which the trav­ellers were able to move from sta­tion to sta­tion try­ing the typ­i­cal dish­es and tast­ing the wines to match the deli­cious morsels.

The group around Roland Förster, CEO and Sole Share­hold­er, and Alexan­der Link, CIO / COO, were tak­en out on a cata­ma­ran the next day to enjoy the views of the enchant­i­ng island from the sea and relax in glo­ri­ous sun­shine! And, of course, the trip also pro­vid­ed the impor­tant oppor­tu­ni­ty for the trav­ellers to exchange expe­ri­ences, which is an aspect that is always essen­tial to any ENERGETIX event.

The pho­tos of the mod­els in ENER­GETIX’s main cat­a­logue were shot this year in an exot­ic atmos­phere. Take a look behind the scenes – we’ve got the mak­ing-of video of the pho­to shoot in Puer­to Rico here for you!
