Joey Tan

Joey Tan spent fifteen years building a serious career. As a professional civil engineer climbing toward Vice President at CPG Consultants — an international firm of considerable standing — he was doing what the world told him constituted success: working hard, performing well, advancing steadily.

Then he watched his superior fall ill.

Not in a vague, gradual way — but visibly, undeniably, as a direct consequence of unceasing stress and the relentless demands of a senior corporate role. The man above him on the ladder, the destination Joey was working toward, had been broken by the journey.

It stopped him cold. Not dramatically — Joey is not a dramatic man — but with the quiet, clear-eyed recognition of an engineer: if the structure is flawed, the outcome is predictable. And the structure of his career, however successful it appeared, had a fundamental flaw: it was entirely dependent on his continued presence, his continued performance, his continued endurance.

He began to look for a way out that was also a way forward.

Joey approached the problem the way an engineer approaches a design challenge: systematically. He tried options trading on the side, building a financial buffer through the markets. He explored importing and retailing luxury handbags as a possible business venture.

Neither worked in the way he needed. Not because Joey lacked capability — but because neither offered what he was actually looking for: a business that could scale regionally, generate multiple income streams, and eventually run without his daily, physical involvement.

Then his brother introduced him to network marketing.

Joey's initial reaction was the same as most analytical, technically-trained professionals: deep skepticism. Network marketing sat uncomfortably against his engineering worldview — where results are measurable, structures are logical, and claims require evidence.

But his previous ventures had given him something valuable: a framework for evaluating opportunities critically. When he applied that framework to avita — the product quality, the company's track record, the compensation structure, the regional market opportunity — the analysis surprised him. The numbers made sense. The model was sound. The skeptic became a starter.

He joined as a Direct GA and began building methodically, consistently, without drama.

By 2011, Joey's avita network had grown to a point where the numbers spoke clearly. He was confident enough in what he had built — confident enough in its momentum, its residual income, its potential — to make the decision that most people in network marketing talk about but few actually reach.

He resigned from CPG. He fired his boss. He went full time.

For a self-described introvert who came to the business with few words and considerable doubt, this was not a reckless leap of faith. It was a calculated, evidence-based decision by a man who had done the analysis and trusted what he found.

Today, Joey Tan is one of avita's top-ranking leaders, with a network spanning Asia. He is a Pearl Ambassador — the highest recognition within the Scent'al World group — and he reached it not by being the loudest voice in the room but by being the most consistent.

He will tell you directly that he is an introvert. That he is a man of few words. That he did not come to this business with charisma, with a ready-made network of contacts, or with any natural affinity for the social dimensions of network marketing.

He came with discipline, an analytical mind, a willingness to learn, and the hard-won wisdom of having already tried and evaluated two other business models before this one.

And he built something that works across an entire continent.

"The avita training and personal development system works — as long as you put in your fair share of hard work and discipline. I am living proof of that. And if an introvert with few words like me can succeed here, truly anyone can."

That is not false modesty. It is the most honest, and perhaps most powerful, endorsement in this network.

Joey's story is specifically for the person who looks at network marketing and thinks: that's not for people like me. Too introverted. Too analytical. Too skeptical. Too busy being good at something else.

He was all of those things. He built one of Asia's most successful avita networks anyway. The system works — if you do.
