Eddie & Connie Chong

Connie and Eddie’s journey with Nu Skin started in the mid-90s, way before the company established its presence in Singapore at the turn of the millennium. They were introduced to Nu Skin products by Eddie’s business partner in Malaysia and Eddie immediately recognized the potential of the opportunity. Connie, on the other hand, was cautious about the legitimacy of multi-level marketing. However, she decided to give the products a try.

The 58-year-old used to work as a secretary in the hotel industry but left her job to start a beauty salon. However, after the birth of her youngest daughter more than 20 years ago, her once flawless complexion took a sharp turn and she developed acnes the size of coins all over her face. The inflammations were so bad, the desperate mother sought treatments from numerous skin doctors. Her acnes yielded moderately but her complexion developed another problem… pigmentation.

Connie was so plagued by her skin conditions, she lost confidence in her looks and eventually closed her beauty salon business. “I used to hide the fact that I owned a beauty salon before,” Connie shared. “But since I started trying Nu Skin products, my complexion improved. I was so amazed!” Convinced that the products work, Connie was won over and began actively building the Nu Skin business with her husband.

“The way we do our business is that we always let our prospects and potential customers try the products first. We never hard sell or believe in product pushing. Usually, the products would sell themselves after people have used them,” Eddie divulged. The 60-year-old used to run his family’s business in photography while carving out a successful career in insurance.

“Quite a lot of people that we approached about the Nu Skin opportunity asked us the secret or fastest way to reach the top, to become a Blue Diamond Executive. We always tell them if that’s what they are looking for, then sorry, this is not that kind of business,” the couple reminisced of their earlier encounters with prospects. “We believe in hard work. You have to go through the qualification as an Executive, a Ruby, Diamond, so on and so forth till you reach Blue Diamond, Team Elite and higher. This way, you can experience every stage of the business and grow to become a leader.”

Their belief in hard work has definitely paid off. After signing up with Nu Skin when the company began operations in 2000, the husband-and-wife team has toiled tirelessly and reached where they are today, as Nu Skin Enterprises Singapore newest 5 Million Dollar Circle Members. “We’ve never imagined that we could become 5 Million Dollar Circle Members but we did it. It just shows how incredible this business opportunity truly is!”

For their achievement and success so far, Connie and Eddie would like to thank the company for the great products and compensation plan; their downlines, sidelines, business partners, and especially 5 Million Dollar Circle Members Lillian Quah and Daniel Lim. So what’s next for the couple? Go US$10 Million!
