Matt & Lisa Rasmussen’s organisation, Titan Global, has gone from strength to strength. They now have a team of IBOs and customers located in 14 countries around the globe.
“I didn’t have a privileged background. My parents were blue-collar workers and they had a dream for me; they wanted me to have a life better than what they had. I went to school, got my degree and went into the corporate workforce as a public accountant. It didn’t take me very long to realise that that wasn’t a better life. I didn’t have a lot of freedom. I had a lot of stress in my life and not a lot of free time. I certainly didn’t have a lot of time to spend with my children or to grow as a person. This wasn’t the way I wanted to spend my life, so I was open to opportunities. I saw ACN seven years ago and it just made sense. Getting paid when people pay their essential bills and while I slept sounded like a very good thing. So we got started – we went to work and we worked hard,” Matt explained.
Matt’s wife Lisa was sceptical when he first joined ACN, however her thoughts changed very quickly, “In the last seven years, we’ve had some amazing lifestyle changes. I’ve seen the world and we’ve spent more time with our children”, she said. Matt continued, “Before ACN, I’d never even left the country and today we’ve been to multiple countries around the world. It’s just been staggering – especially the personal growth. And what I really love is that this company has allowed us the environment to see these changes in our life and really fulfil what, I believe, was my potential all along.”
Matt believes the ACN opportunity is only as good as what an IBO is going to bring to the table. “It’s a personal growth program with compensation attached. The more you grow, the more you make. You have to like people. You have got to have a vision for people and a desire to have people succeed beyond your own success, in order to really have success with ACN. For a new IBO, the key to success is very simple – you’ve got to be coachable. The people that are involved in the business are there to help you. If I’d just been more coachable and listened to the people that got me involved when I started out, I would have had an even greater level of success.”
So, what is it about ACN that Matt enjoys the most?
“With ACN, you wake up each morning and the day is limitless. You don’t know who you’re going to present to that day that’s got a bigger vision than you. I look out ten years from today and I can imagine where our business is going to be – in multiple countries around the world, hundreds of thousands of customers – and it’s all because of ACN. It’s absolutely amazing to think that from the kid that grew up in a very humble beginning to be where we are today – travel the world and do what we want to do is amazing and I’m just so thankful for that.”

Former Engineer and U.S. Olympic Track Team Hopeful, now ACN Senior Vice President and North American Circle of Champions Member.
As a former Ivy Leaguer from Princeton and future Olympic Hopeful, Brian Sax seemed to have the recipe for success – a college education from one of the country’s most respected institutions and an athletic ability to break new records in track and field. But it didn’t take long for Brian to discover that college had not prepared him for the harsh realities of the real world – a world that unfortunately would not allow him to do what he loved and to be financially successful at the same time.
As an Engineer, he never gave up on his dreams, but his career simply did not leave enough time for him to train properly. In his search for something new (for something that broke the corporate rules), he discovered ACN through a friend who was a Heart Surgeon from Yale. Brian was immediately impressed.
“Everyone was so supportive from the beginning; everyone wanted to see everyone else succeed. It was the most positive environment that I had ever encountered,” Brian said.
From his first days in this business, Brian set out on a different kind of race… a race to the top. He was promoted to Regional Vice President in July 2000 but that simply wasn’t enough. So he relocated to Odessa, Texas, and under his leadership, the Texas market exploded. His move also resulted in Brian meeting his future wife, Andrea.
The couple has been extremely successful, and their financial gain had given them the freedom to spend more time together and to look forward to starting a family without any financial worries. In addition, Brian is able to devote time once again to his love of track and field, and Andrea has been able to focus on her own long-time dream of starting her own business. While their income had afforded them a lot, they’ve gained far more from their ACN business.
“The growth along the way, as well as the type of people who have come into my life, my wife especially, have completely changed my life. If it were not for ACN, I would not have 90% of the non-material items, qualities, and assets I cherish most in my life right now! I’m excited about where I am, what I’ve become, and where my wife and I are headed – all because of ACN!” Brian said.
Today, this consistent Circle of Champions Member oversees a global network of IBOs. Brian reached another milestone in February 2003 when he was the first to be promoted as a North American Senior Vice President.
“ACN has been the definition of change in my life. What my career forced me to give up years ago, I now have that and so much more back through ACN,” Brian said.
The Circle of Champions represents the Top Producers.

When Karen Rostagno first saw ACN, she was busy running a family business and did not have much time to devote to ACN. However, after just 22 months of ACN part time, she found herself having time and financial freedom that she never thought was possible.
“I love the fact that ACN pays a residual income for marketing essential products that everyone need and want. A lifelong dream of being able to make a significant difference in other people’s lives has become a reality,” Karen explains. “ACN is a turnkey business that offers all the resources a person needs to build a successful business.”
Karen has since become the first Australian IBO to achieve the highest earned position in ACN, Senior Vice President. “It’s been such a privilege for me to be Australia’s first SVP and I want to help other people step into this place as well. So all the dreams that they have, everything they want to achieve for their family, will happen for them as well.”
For Karen, the greatest gift from ACN has been the freedom to do what she wants, when she wants, which all comes back to the simple things in life.

George and Mavis had always been in business for themselves both as a farming enterprise and retailing agricultural products. However, after 40 years of travelling up and down the financial ladder 3 times owing to things beyond their control, they were introduced to the ACN Opportunity. With 14 years network marketing experience, George and Mavis were convinced ACN was the way to go!

Introduced to ACN by a friend, George and Mavis were curious to find out more; however, after cancelling their first appointment due to illness, they didn’t get to see the presentation for another 2 weeks. “Our Sponsors didn’t give up on us and we are very grateful for that”.

Knowing that telecommunications was one of the fastest growing industries in the world, George and Mavis didn’t want to miss out on such a promising opportunity. “Besides, getting paid on thousands or tens of thousands of other people’s phone bills around the world was certainly appealing so we signed up straight away”.

The thing that appealed to George and Mavis most about ACN was that they aren’t asking people to spend more money than they normally do and everybody has a telephone. “Residual income coupled with the ability to duplicate yourself is very powerful when fully understood. By building and helping a team of people build their business, everyone’s income is unlimited”.

“Our goal is to change the lives of other people by showing them what we were shown”.

Since they started with ACN, George and Mavis have followed the system to the letter, put in consistent effort and most importantly, never ever gave up! “Become 100 % coachable and together everyone wins. Don’t hold back, overcome your fears and make it happen with daily action”.

Prior to ACN, Bruce had worked for 25 years as a financial planner and before that, a retail business owner. His partner, Lorraine was working 7 days a week as a real estate agent and before that ran her own newspaper.

When Bruce was first approached about the Opportunity, he was not really interested in learning more about the business and felt no urgency to attend a meeting. Six months later, when Co-Founder Mike Cupisz was touring Australia and stopping in Bruce’s hometown of Adelaide, his sponsor contacted him again. The chance to meet a Co-Founder, successful business owner and expert in Network Marketing, excited Bruce. After signing up himself, Bruce asked his partner Lorraine to attend a meeting with him.

After attending the Event, meeting thousands of excited people and hearing some great testimonials, Lorraine could see what Bruce had seen all along – that “the Opportunity was an absolute ‘no-brainer’. ACN had such a good track record and the product was for essential services that people use every day”.

They attribute their success to a strong work ethic, consistency and persistence, allowing them to achieve the position of Regional Vice Presidents. They are now focused on fast tracking their way to Senior Vice President.

The successful mother and daughter ACN partnership of Frances and Memory began in New Zealand in 2006 when ACN first launched there. After becoming Regional Vice Presidents in 2008, they moved to Australia to expand their business in the Pacific region.

Frances’ role is of a coach and mentor to their IBO’s, helping with their transition to being Business Owners with ACN. Memory, having been a successful pharmaceutical rep prior to ACN, focuses on training their IBO’s on the skills necessary to build their ACN Business and duplicate.

Together they love ACN because it offers them far more choices than they ever had before and the flexibility to spend more time with their family. The journey for them both has been challenging and very rewarding when it comes to sharing this amazing opportunity with the world.

Living pay cheque to pay cheque, the Lewinsmith family knew they needed to make a change. They came across the ACN Opportunity and knew immediately that it could turn their life around and give them back the family time they longed for, plus provide the steady income and job security they dreamed of.

Even though Sandy and Rod Lewinsmith were already seasoned and successful network marketers, they had never seen anything like ACN. They were excited to discover that it was a truly supportive, team-based business, genuinely focused on helping others achieve.

Sandy and Rod immediately showed the business to their sons Austin and Winston, who had both grown up seeing the benefits of networking marketing first hand but had never worked in the industry.

Today the Lewinsmith’s are among the top SVPs globally, with representatives in countries all over the world. They are testament to the fact that with focus, effort and commitment, dreams can become a reality.

John Grant and his wife Jarmila have illustrated a fine example of what it takes to become a leader in this business. Now, John and Jarmila lead an ever-expanding team of IBOs in the Pacific Region.
John had been a corporate trainer since 1990, presenting professional development programs to many companies, large and small. Prior to this, John and Jarmila created a chain of 10 fitness centres with 10,000 members, the success of which was featured as a cover story in an Australian Success Magazine.
John and Jarmila were doing well financially and creatively when first introduced to ACN. “Actually, it was completely serendipitous. I received a call from an old acquaintance that had already experienced financial success in another Network Marketing company. He mentioned that ACN’s Opportunity was at least five times better. After two and a half years with ACN, I agree with him.”
“To say everything would sound all inclusive may not be believable, but for me everything about the company was appealing… the idea, the leadership, and the fit for me really made sense. Significantly though, ACN’s future expansion plans into new countries and the future of telecommunications were the clinchers!”
From day one, Jarmila was delighted. “Her only desire was for me to be happy with what I was doing. Within weeks of joining ACN she commented that I was back to the excited, energetic happy person I was before I was engulfed by my traditional business.”
“My advice to anyone getting started is create a personal vision for your success, make sure that this is ‘other people centred’, set an action plan with major and micro steps you need to take and manage your emotions by developing your emotional maturity.”
“Remember, if you know where you are going and you are headed there with the mental certitude of being successful, people will want to be a part of what you are doing.”

Believing in the company, the Co-Founders, and their Leaders has proven successful for this dream team.
Prior to their success with ACN, Denny and Elizabeth controlled fifty companies consisting of licensed and franchised stores throughout Australia; however, they were time poor.
“We had no time to spend with our young family, so in the year 2000, we sold the franchise and maintained one successful business, which we recently sold in order to spend 100% of our time on ACN and more time with our family – now we can have time and money together.”
Denny and Elizabeth had no Network Marketing experience prior to ACN. “We weren’t interested in selling products and collecting money off our friends. It wasn’t until we were introduced to ACN that we saw a company that we could believe in. We like to fulfil our potential and to help others fulfil theirs. We couldn’t believe that the greatest business opportunity on the planet had been placed right in front of us.”
“What appealed most about ACN was the timing of the Opportunity, the structure and simplicity of the business plan, and the vision and integrity of the founders and leaders within ACN.” Their traditional business involved trading time for money, whereas ACN allows Denny and Elizabeth to help other people to achieve their full potential, as well as achieve their own, all the while creating financial freedom.
“We believe in the company, the Founders and our leaders. We believe we are only just beginning and the best is yet to come. We believe in a work commitment, being coachable and having a “never quit” attitude equals success.”
“Be coachable, have a work ethic, ‘never quit’ and just plug into the successful ACN system and success is assured.”

Even in relatively remote parts of Australia, Keith & Colleen have achieved remarkable success in a short period of time.
Keith & Colleen Janke were introduced to ACN and quickly realised that the business was an exceptional, once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. The Jankes have since flourished as leaders, and it was their winning combination of commitment and action that propelled them to become leaders in the region.
Keith was very motivated to get involved with ACN as he didn’t want to miss out on what could be a huge opportunity. “Those who wait will always be following those who grasp the opportunity now,” he said.
“Only a very small percentage of Network Marketing companies ever last more than 5 years, but ACN has not only lasted for nearly 14 years, but has prospered with above average growth year after year. The successful history of ACN really gives me confidence in the company,” Keith explained.
“ACN’s Co-Founders are people who have walked the talk. They provide great support through leadership calls and hosting training events. The great thing about ACN is that I’m supported with resources like marketing materials and International Training Events, which help me to become successful while I can get on with my business. But I would have to say: the best thing about ACN is that it allows me the freedom to spend time with family and friends while building my ACN business.”
Keith explains that while he has been self-employed most of his working life, the real difference with ACN is that now he receives a long-term, meaningful residual income. “In a short period of time, we have a residual income that most Australians work 40 years or more for and NEVER achieve. So now I’m semi retired, with a home on the river in the country and can be close to my grandchildren,” said Keith.
Keith believes anyone can have success with ACN if they are committed, apply self-discipline and learn from the success of others. “Since I have been with ACN, I have a great desire to help others reach their potential. That’s where I find the inspiration and motivation to continue my success. My business only grows to the extent that I am a student of other’s success who can impart this wisdom to my team.”

When MD. Rahman attended his first ACN International event in 2012, he set a goal. Inspired by the events he saw on stage, he vowed to become the first Bangladeshi Regional Vice President in the company within the next 12 months. “I wanted to be recognised on stage and introduce my native nation in front of tens of thousands of people”, he recalls of his renewed commitment to the company he had joined a year earlier. “And yes, with God’s grace, I was able to achieve my goal within the set time.”

Along with recognition, Rahman found financial prosperity, a better life and a more secure future for his young family. And he also realised the satisfaction of helping others to fulfill their dreams.

“I’m always proud and excited when any of my team members achieves the next level of business because I feel it is a sacred responsibility to fulfill our commitment.”

A few short years on and MD has achieved Senior Vice President and relocated to Sydney, Australia to allow him to focus on building the Australian leg of his business.

After migrated to Australia from India with his wife Simran, and their young child, Bobby Chellane struggled to make ends meet by taking odd jobs where he could.

When Bobby first saw the ACN Opportunity, it made absolute sense for him. He could immediately see the potential and jumped at the opportunity.

In just 13 months, Bobby became Regional Vice President and after a further 5 months he achieved the position of Platinum Regional Vice President. As he says, his ‘life went from ordinary to extra ordinary.’

Bobby is now on a mission to help other people achieve success by following the same system so that they too can take control of their lives.

An Engineer by profession with a masters in IT, Rao immigrated to Australia without knowing anyone. After some time working in the corporate world he felt as though he was running on a treadmill – constantly moving but never getting anywhere. He was then shown the ACN Opportunity by a new friend and he immediately hit the ground running – all the way to Regional Vice President.

Always having an entrepreneurial spirit, Sinan started his own tradition business at the age of 17 but after a few short years he felt as though the business was taking up all of his time.

When the ACN Opportunity came along, Sinan and his wife Angelik were looking to make a change. A friend encouraged Sinan to attend an International event, which ended up being a turning point for him. He signed on with ACN and hasn’t looked back.

After a few years of hard work and persistence, Sinan and Angelik, 27 and 25 respectively, achieved the position of Regional Vice Presidents. Their focus now is to help as many other families as possible, achieve the same success.

An entrepreneurial spirit drove Ben to start his own business in the film industry when he was just 19 years of age. After 10 years of working for his business he decided he wanted a business that would work for him.

When ACN crossed his path he quickly recognised the growth and potential in the essential services industry and the effectiveness of ACN’s marketing model. And as someone who enjoys helping other people succeed, Ben has already built a large team of Independent Business Owners and a customer base in the thousands.

Ben’s never quit attitude and persistence for continual improvement over the years has afforded him the successes he enjoys today. His key goal for the future is to build his business and to continue to help others improve their lives too.

Financially pushed to their limits and on the verge of losing the family home, Jannis and Spencer were introduced to the ACN opportunity at a time when they needed it most. After years of hard work growing their business and supporting their teams, Spencer and Jannis have turned their lives around and built a strong financial future for themselves and their four children.

Joey and Francesca stumbled upon the ACN Opportunity at a time when they were dissatisfied with their financial position and their day-to-day lifestyle. While working full time, they focused their energy on building their business out of work hours, but before long, ACN became their full time business. They now have the lifestyle they dreamed of and are helping others achieve the same.

An entrepreneur at heart, Helen Searle bought a house every year while at university and rented them out to fellow students to pay for her own education.

With a background in education and in sport, Helen has taught at all levels of education and has also represented Australia in the sport of korfball in over 50 international matches.

When ready to start their family, Helen and her husband left their executive positions, moved to Geelong and started their own business, enabling her to be a stay-at-home Mum.

However, when introduced to our company, Helen saw the potential of working from home in an internationally expanding company that marketed services that everyone already used and needed, while still giving her the freedom to be involved in their four children’s school and sporting activities.

Now a Regional Vice President, Helen has more time on her hands and enjoys helping others reach the same level of success.
