Guri Kjelle
ASEA Diamond ExecutivePhysical therapist and fitness devotee Guri Kjelle has spent more than a decade immersed in the physical recovery and improvement process, providing treatment at her own clinics. “I’ve always been interested in helping people with preventive health,” she says, “and when I was introduced to ASEA, I saw it as a perfect complement to my treatments.”
When ASEA entered her world, Guri was already involved with another network marketing company, so she knew she had a decision to make—and she wouldn’t make it lightly. “If I was going to do this,” she remembers, “I had to meet the founders of the company.”
To meet them, she charted course for the Mediterranean. “At that time, ASEA had a promotion for a cruise in the Mediterranean going on,” she remembers, “so I put all my energy into accomplishing that. There I met the founders and their families and fell in love with every one of them—so the decision was easy for me.”
With the decision made, Guri made ASEA her top priority. “I work full-time ASEA now, and I can’t imagine doing anything else,” she says. And, though she can’t fathom any other path for herself, she understands it’s not the only one. “I have learned that this is not for everyone, and the people you really believe in aren’t necessarily the people who will do it—so I give everyone the same attention and help, and then they have to decide if it’s for them.”
But don’t let her simple determination fool you into thinking it’s been easy. “Sometimes it’s difficult to not take it personally when you really want to help someone and they’re not interested,” she admits. “Remember, if you want a big business, you have to talk to a lot of people. It will take some time, but I promise it will be worth it.”
