The Delisle is U.S. Crown Ambassadors. They have in law Dennis & Sharon Delisle, who are Triple Diamonds.
When the company he worked for unexpectedly went out of business, Frank Delisle, Sr. wanted to find a career he couldn't take away.
Frank and his wife Rita established his firm in 1961. Within six months, they reached Platinum status.
The quick expansion grabbed the attention of Frank's fellow business owners, who voted him next year to the ADA (now Independent Business Owners Association International) board of directors.
Frank served on the board for six consecutive years, three as vice-president. During this time, he credits his board work as giving much of the inspiration for his firm' continuous growth.
"I worked with Rich DeVos, Jay Van Andel, and the other founders," recalls Frank. "They exhibited the Association's exceptional devotion. Being involved was a very exciting moment, and it really pushed me to work on my business."
Today, sons Dennis and Frank, Jr. share primary responsibility for running the Delisle business that attained the position of Crown Ambassador. A third-generation Delisles also got involved.
"We're still working with our downline, attending important conferences," Frank remarked. "We're still as excited about business as when we started. If you're enthusiastic about something like we're doing for business, you can't just retire and go away. To us it means too much."
