"Cowards never start; the weak never finish; and winners never quit." Markwin L. Lopez, a well-known Filipino wealth educator, international speaker and direct selling guru, became a young multi-millionaire through living by these three sentences.
Born in a less fortunate family, Lopez worked really hard and endured countless sleepless nights, rejections and discouragements, to be where he is now. He started with earning only P500 per week, then became a millionaire when he was 25 years old. And for more than a decade now, Lopez has been earning a 6-digit monthly residual income – with no Bundy clock, without any quota, and without a boss. Now that he’s 37 years old, he owns three cars, a house and lot, and several condominium units because of making money out of his combined passion for good health, direct selling and education. He has also toured across Europe, USA, China, UAE, Egypt, Australia and other Asian countries. His own group named Crown of the Radiant Empire (CORE) is one of the longest and biggest groups from his affiliated direct selling company, DXN International Private, Ltd.
Climbing Up the Ladder
“I don't regret being born poor and I don’t blame my parents for the life we [used to] have. It's an instrument of God. It helped me make people understand their situation today and the bright future ahead of them,” Lopez said. Before being a direct selling expert, Lopez had already proven that he was born to break records, to become victorious and to inspire others with his success. His father died early due to Diabetes so he had no choice but to finance his own education. He served as a janitor in a mall, became a messenger, a service crew in a fast food chain, and a cinema checker – going home around 2a.m. and waking up after a few hours to attend his 7a.m. classes. Due to lack of sleep, his classmates used to laugh at him for being mentally absent in class. Yet, nothing has stopped him from reaching his dreams. He gained a degree in BS Secondary Education and was able to teach high school students in St. James College and New Era High School for a few years.
The Direct Selling Journey
Lopez just started his Master’s degree when he learned about the direct selling business. He realized that he had a big potential in direct selling so he decided to resign from teaching. As the breadwinner, his mom discouraged him from resigning. His friends, colleagues, relatives and co-teachers even mocked him for giving up his job just to focus on direct selling but he didn’t listen to them. He pursued his desire to become financially stable. However, his first attempt at direct selling wasn't successful as it was all about recruiting people and less about selling products. Many got traumatized. People thought they were a scam. During those times, he knew he needed to offer effective products to gain people’s trust. He was thinking of the best products to offer when he remembered his father’s death. It inspired him to study about nutrition and ways to prevent diseases. He studied about alternative-medicines, health, wellness, leadership, and wealth. He equipped himself before returning to direct selling.
“I attended international trainings and seminars under Tony Robbins, Brian Tracy, Chris Gardner, Robert Kiyosaki, Gerry Robert, Jerome Tan, Peng Joon, Kevin Green, Andrew Matthews, and many more,” Lopez said.
He didn’t quit looking for the direct selling Company that would suit his advocacy. When he found a company that based their earnings fully in the health product movement, he started selling their products and he invited guests to seminars about health and wellness. Due to his sincerity to promote good health and the effectiveness of the products they offered, he was able to keep a pool of loyal customers and was able to establish his own successful group. He has been with the DXN Company for about 14 years now. He became the youngest Crown Ambassador at the age of 37 years old.
Inspiring Others
To give back and also help others maximize their potential, Lopez regularly conducts seminars and talks (both locally and abroad) about wealth, success, direct selling, leadership, and so much more. Some of the seminars he has spearheaded include Success Simplified Workshop (SSW), Apprehension on Savings & Investment (ASI), Unlock your Maximum Potential (UMP), Infinite Prosperity Mindset (IPM), Outstanding Leadership Training, (OLT), Multiply Sales & Customers (MSAC), Winning Direct Selling Business (WMB), Pursuit Wealth & Happiness (PWH), Self-Building & Empowerment (SBE), Online Marketing Strategy (OMS) and case study of successful people.
He has helped people become millionaires, gain self-confidence, and become successful in the direct selling industry.
"I believe that learning prevents you sliding back and if you think it's expensive then try to be ignorant," Lopez added.
“I believe that free training and lecture have less effect and impact because I believe nobody respects for free. If you want to have a quality training and workshop with a credible trainer, who has an outstanding track record then you must pay the price. Self-growth and development is not cheap. You must invest in it.”
“Being rich or wealthy is not by accident nor by luck. Use your "POWER OF CHOICE,” Lopez said.
“God only sees what’s in your heart and above of everyone.”
“Never bother about what people might say to you. Be always at your peak state. Don’t allow them to drag you down from your principle and mindset or you might end up with them. It’s better to walk alone knowing your goal rather than pleasing everyone but having no direction.”
“Always remember that all the blessings are grace by God. I’m nothing without Him and He gave DXN to me.”
Pray and forgive those people who try to pull you down. God will do the rest,” Markwin concluded.
