“Zina is a proactive and responsive individual that is a pleasure to work with. She has a great interest in expanding new business opportunities and working with individuals or organizations that creates a symbiotic relationship. Zina is a great person that is truly interested in helping others and their companies succeed.” January 17, 2011

Tim Ahaus, Director, Business Development, Earth Advantage Institute

“During the last three years at AmeriFlex, I have attended and presented at over 35 manager's and territory kickoff meetings. Each is unique and provides managers and agents with valuable tools and information for the coming year. The one meeting that stands out to me, above all others, was Zina's manager meeting held in Portland, Oregon.

The week prior to Zina's meeting, I had traveled across the country presenting at three different kickoff meetings and was looking forward to a nice quiet dinner after her session was completed. Most manager's meetings break around 5:00pm with dinner following. Much to my initial dismay, not Zina's. Zina had thought outside the box and not only invited her entire team (including field agents and enrollers) to her meeting, she invited three power-brokers to the meeting for an in-depth panel discussion. Even in my travel-weary state, I was impressed.

Clearly, Zina had taken the initiative and gone against the conventional norm to maximize the educational opportunity provided by the manager's and territory kickoff meetings. The panel discussion was an eye-opening experience, both for me as well as her team and helped them shape and adapt their approach to broker recruitment. It was something simple, yet very effective.

Although I am only now endorsing Zina, I have used this example as a key-to-success in every single Colonial presentation I have delivered since. The credit, goes to Zina.” January 12, 2011
