The Power of Connection: Events & Incentives

Els Gebbink, wife of Paul Gebbink, CEO and product developer of Beyuna, organizes and coordinates events at the Beyuna Academy and external locations. Four times a year, she comes up with unforgettable incentives, and in March each year, she goes all out with the 2 Day College.

Interview: Els Gebbink, Event Coordinator

Take us back to March 2014, the start of Beyuna. How did it go?
“Together with Paul, I have been active in network marketing for more than thirty years. Over ten years ago, we started our own network marketing company, Beyuna. I will never forget the moment we announced this to our network on March 25, 2014. Many people decided to become distributors because they had full confidence in us. We worked day and night on everything necessary to start the company; it was a very exciting time!”

Now Beyuna is celebrating its tenth anniversary, congratulations! How do you look back on the past years?
“Where to begin? So much has happened. The office and the team have grown. In 2019, we said goodbye to the Training Centre in Hoofddorp and opened the Beyuna Academy in Amsterdam. From there, we started offering livestreams, which was a great solution during the COVID period. The product range has expanded to nineteen supplements, and we have opened in more and more countries. The number of customers and distributors has grown significantly, and I have been able to organize many events and incentives for all these people. I am especially very proud.”

What events do you organize for Beyuna?
“We organize the Paul Gebbink Day and the International Business Day at external locations every month. At the Beyuna Academy in Amsterdam, I organize and present the starter meetings for new distributors every other month. There is also a monthly nutrition seminar, which sells out every time. For the Academy Professional members, I host parties at our home in the Gebbink Residence, such as the Summer Party or a Christmas gathering. Once a year, we celebrate Beyuna’s anniversary with a two-day event and gala, which I prepare for months in advance. And I also organize the incentives every quarter.”

What does the Beyuna incentive entail?
“The incentive is an extra motivation and at the same time a reward for successful distributors. To qualify for the incentive, you need to meet certain ‘goals’ within three months. I always come up with a unique activity or choose a special location for an unforgettable experience. Successes should be celebrated together!”

What do you enjoy most about organizing events?
“I love bringing people together and creating connections. That’s what network marketing is all about. The events provide the opportunity to network and meet other distributors. Additionally, I really enjoy the creative process. I have a concept in my head, and it’s fantastic to see it come to life. People sometimes underestimate how much goes into organizing an event. I’m also a perfectionist. Everything must be meticulously planned for the best possible experience. Seeing everyone enjoy themselves is incredibly rewarding.”
