PlanNet Marketing is pleased to welcome Dennette Williams Welch to the 20/20 Club! Dennette tells us, "I am a native of Ville Platte, Louisiana, and I have proudly called Baton Rouge, Louisiana, home since 1987. I have always had a passion for connecting with others, building relationships, and expanding my network. Growing up, travel was not a major part of my life. In fact, my only family vacation as a teenager was a road trip to Houston, Texas. I didn’t board my first flight until the age of 30. However, everything changed in 2010 when I began working as a Medical Software Trainer. This role allowed me to travel across the United States—and it was then that I discovered my love for travel.
"As an adult, I recognized my natural strengths in sales and networking. Still, I was never drawn to traditional business models that required monthly product auto-shipments. That changed in 2016 when I was introduced to a travel-based business model where travel itself became the 'product.' I immediately knew it was the perfect fit.
"I describe my journey to success as steady rather than fast—but I firmly believe in persistence. As I often told my two sons when they left for college, 'Quitting is not an option.' My advice to others is simple and powerful: Just don’t quit.
"Fun fact: During my senior year of high school, I earned grades strong enough for acceptance into the BETA Club. While my test scores didn’t qualify for competition at the convention, I stood out in another way—I sold more fundraising products than anyone else. As a result, I became the only non-competitor whose expenses were covered to attend the convention."
