Austin Zulauf Bio 2016 (updated)
Who is Austin Zulauf?
Where does this guy come from, right? LOL...But seriously, as far as Austin's past is concerned, he grew up around some of the top thought leaders, sales & marketing professionals and personal self-development coaches in the world starting at age 12. This was thanks to his mother working for Combined Insurance Company of America. People like Zig Ziglar, Pat Ryan and W. Clement Stone are responsible for shaping this leader's mind.
Austin Zulauf started his career in the field of direct sales professionally October 2, 2002 at age 19 with Combined Insurance Company selling insurance door to door & business to business in Kentucky, setting and breaking several records of this hundred year old company! He was soon offered the position of Divisional Sales Trainer in Dallas Texas, training thousands of direct sales professionals in a classroom. This is where the Austin Zulauf training brand was started...
It didn't take long for this young professional to network in Dallas and start providing training for car lots, furniture stores, financial groups and all types of professionals wanting to get further in sales. Austin always had a knack for marketing though.
Austin Zulauf's rise from successful to homeless to Network Marketing leader:
So, even though he had a very successful start in his career in direct sales, Austin was young. Without saving much money or investing, he went from nearly a quarter million dollar per year income around age 25 to a corporate restructuring leaving him with no income. This would later prove to be a lesson on the need for residual income, owning your own business and investments. After defaulting on a home, Austin was stuck in a tight spot. Going from well over $12,000 per month to $12 per hour was challenging for him. He was burnt out on sales but stayed open to opportunity. Forced to move back in with family in 2008, Austin was on Facebook one day and saw a young man who looked successful and said he was a "Diamond Executive" in Zija International, a health & wellness company. The company didn't matter, Austin was looking for opportunity so he reached out...He had no idea this would be the start of a long journey to HIS salvation and become his new life's mission to help save others from the struggle he went through.
The Journey, the Struggle & the Breakthrough!
Despite his background in sales, Austin Zulauf wasn't a natural at Network Marketing at all! It took him over 2 months of hard work before he recruited his 1st business partner but by then, he already had his car repossessed and was getting food from the Salvation Army.
See, Austin Zulauf believed in the Network Marketing business model so much, he took every penny he had to start his 1st business. However, just a few months later, he joined a different business with his friend Allen Jones from Dallas and this is where he had his 1st taste of success in multi-level marketing...
If you were to ask Austin what made him successful in his 2nd company, as opposed to his 1st, he'd simply say his partner and he came up with a simple system to produce a little results then built an army of people getting a little results.
He may not mention the sleepless nights watching YouTube training videos from Eric Worre, Ray Higdon, Todd Falcone and other Network Marketing Trainers or the thousands of pages of blogs he studied on his new craft or even the 10's of thousands of dollars of training programs and seminars he attended. But guaranteed, the hard work was put in!
Fast Forward to the Fun Times!
(Austin Zulauf, the successful years?)
So, by about 2013, Austin Zulauf was becoming well-known for his training and systems in the Network Marketing profession. He's an active member of Church On The Rock, has 2 beautiful children he's very proud of, Kayla & Braedon, he's found balance and he's back to "normal"...
Here's some of Austin's accomplishments since then:
The biggest principles Austin tries to impress upon folks is unconditional love, helping one another, enjoying every second of life and taking pride in your work...
If you can't help someone, you definitely don't hurt them!
Even though he's focused on providing top quality step-by-step training to direct sales professionals with a focus on Network Marketing and online marketing, Austin has partnered up with a Network Marketing company, himself. He believe if you're going to train people how to do something, you had better be doing it yourself!..honoring a "practice what you preach" philosophy.
