About Kraig Ward

Kraig Ward first ventured out into the business world as an events promoter back in Salt Lake City where he was born.

Years later he pursued a college education and became certified as a Structural Integration Specialist (a.k.a. “Rolpher” which is a type of Physical Therapy) where he built a successful wellness clinic.

Wanting to expand his influence, he started a mobile spa business helping his clients take advantage of a wide range of services from personal training, customized nutrition programs, yoga, and meditation.

With the desire to continue learning, he began trying his hand at the stock market and studying real estate, and quickly realized these were not his passions.

One day he had a chance encounter with a new client whom had made a fortune in the Network Marketing industry who proposed a partnership.

Inspired by the unique business model and having had almost a decade in the health industry, it was an easy choice.

After traveling around the United States doing meetings and following the system that he was taught by his mentor, he wound up 6 years later still scrambling to plug the hole in his bank account and having the face the fact that he had racked up $42,456.00 in credit card debt spread out over 5 credit cards. The worst part was that on a good month, his business would pull in a measly $800. Not what he had expected from all the years of time, effort and energy.

But he had been bitten by the marketing bug and saw the potential of making an impact through the power of marketing and business.

Having invested so much time and money pursuing his dream of financial independence, he kept seeking answers. His search led him to looking for more alternative sources of education and that’s when he met his next business mentor. He was shown how to make some very minor (but counter intuitive) tweaks to his marketing, and in just 18 short months, he transformed his failing home business from below zero, to earning at the rate of $255,000 USD per year.

Today Kraig teaches marketing to a devoted group of students from across the US, Canada and other parts of the world, manages the website www.RetainReps.com and runs several other online businesses.

With his free time, he loves practicing yoga, is an avid rock climber, and spends the majority of his extra time on a philanthropy project aimed at helping spread awareness around political, socio-economic and environmental issues through live multimedia events hosted across the United States and Canada.

Kraig currently lives in San Diego with his wife Kris and their 2 dogs Sushi and Saké.

  • (The web site I’ve noted above is coming soon. Long story, and related to my inquiry of you.)

    Kraig, your message and experience have captured my attention. A great deal of your summary rings true. Too true. I would like more information about your sales program, system or coaching.

    The opportunity to do ‘exactly what”‘ ‘with what?’ – I’m not so clear on… I see deadlines, costs, guarantees, bonuses, and much more.

    Aside from the option of purchasing right now, and then seeing what happens, I can’t seem to locate more information or any other way to get in touch with you.

    Thanks very much.

  • Dear Kraig

    Thank you for sharing this valuable info with us
    complete strangers. I feel truly blessed to be in
    the right place at the right time. I am definitely one of those people who have been disappointed
    with the old traditional methods of network marketing being harrassed by uplines being told
    to make a list of 100 names and if I’m in business
    for myself why do I have to be harrassed every
    time I turn around. I’m not harrassed them. I
    appreciated the help when I need it however to
    beg my familiy and freinds is not exactly what
    I had intended to do. If it was that easy I would’nt be in the situation I am in now. I love
    my new company and I am very oassionate about it
    however I like to share information with people
    that can and will change there lives, as well as my own. I had a badd experience with one of my
    upline sponsors however it taught me a valuable
    lesson. Although I placed this person in a open
    forum we some very influential people. They appeared to be overly aggressive with my personal contacts and did not seem as though they were
    trying to teach me anything at all about the
    business, But allowed greed, to take over each
    time and they tryed to make me look small, in
    front of the new prospect. I on the other hand like establishing relationships with people and
    freindships, after all if we are going to be working together we should establish some kind
    of relationship. I have spoken to at least 400
    people about my new company and my business has
    not exactly taken off. Am I doing something wrong
    Does the aggressive salesman or woman technique
    work opposed to the more gentle approach sharing
    info and caring about the individual. Help my
    technique has also failed me in life being such
    a nice person has’nt gotten me any where either?
    I would really appreciate your advice, thanks for
    keeping it real.
