The Lisa Tamati Tour was a hit!

Team USANA Athlete, speaker and ultra-marathon runner, Lisa Tamati wowed audiences last week with a regional road show, and USANA New Zealand was there to support the cause!

FIRST STOP; PALMERSTON NORTH!
The road trip started out as a small idea to bring support to some of the smaller New Zealand regions, but quickly became something much bigger and was dubbed ‘The Lisa Tamati Tour’. The tour began in Palmerston North with Lisa speaking to children at two local schools including Somerset Crescent Primary and Palmerston North Boys High. That evening, Lisa spoke at the Palmerston North Convention Centre to a room of approximately 150 guests from the region.

The next day called for an early start and the crew headed off to the next stop which was Napier in the beautiful Hawkes Bay region. Lisa was scheduled for a luncheon which was put on in conjunction with Sport Hawkes Bay and the Napier City Council to raise money for 18 local children who are headed for the junior Olympics. Jeanette Cooper who is the Special Projects Team Leader at Sport Hawkes Bay says, “I have had positive feedback from the 18 children present at Lisa Tamati’s talk, with feelings of being uplifted and inspired. Many of the attendees stated they could have listened for another hour. We also appreciated how Lisa was willing to stay back for photos and book signings. Many thanks to everyone!”

June McCarthy who is a Hawkes Bay USANA associate and who played a significant role in the success of the Lisa Tamati Tour says, “I have spoken to some of the people who attended the Napier talk and they were really impressed with Lisa and the professional way the evening was conducted.   The result was massive brand awareness for USANA and affiliation with schools, sports organisations, networking groups, businesses and councils.”

That evening, Lisa had another opportunity to speak again to a local crowd of over 200 people. Lisa shared her story and went into some of the hardships that she’s faced over the years whilst attempting to achieve feats that many of us can’t begin to contemplate. After mixing and mingling, a large group had shown interest in finding out more about USANA, and were invited to attend a Health and Freedom event in the following week.

TAUPO
Heading north, Lisa and the group stopped in Taupo for lunch with local associates and guests. This was a welcomed opportunity for the group to spend some quality time with Lisa, all of whom left with a feeling of inspiration and awe.

A GREAT SUCCESS
NZ Business Manager, Robyn Brown,  travelled with Lisa throughout the duration of the tour and says, “This tour with Lisa reinforced USANA’s “local area/local community” focus. Fostering relationships with schools and local government bodies was successful both for brand awareness and the promotion of USANA as an organization that really wants to change lives.”

All in all, the Lisa Tamati Tour was a huge success with kiwi children and adults alike benefiting from Lisa Tamati’s one of a kind story and not mention the priceless coverage of USANA! Lesson learnt; Never underestimate the power of our talented Team USANA Athletes!

Special thanks to June McCarthy, Sue MacLachlan, Karen Buckland, Meg Clayton, Somerset Crescent School, Palmerston North Boys High, Sport Hawkes Bay and the Napier City Council, for ensuring the success of this event.
