Executive Profile - Sheri Sharman

Staff

Sheri Sharman believes in “time freedom,” which is not to be confused with free time.

A single mother working as a preschool teacher, Sharman needed a change financially, and was introduced to the network marketing industry in 1987.

“Using much of the basic training that I learned as a Montessori teacher, I quickly rose to the top of my company,” she said.

After earning a quarter of a million dollars in her first year marketing health products, she knew that the flexible time schedule was what she needed to achieve balance, while providing for her son.

Today, she markets a natural energy drink for Via, formerly called ViaViente International, by building sales teams nationally, as well as expanding internationally with distribution agents in 15 countries. Via is a Plano, Texas-based company that distributes an anti-oxidant energy drink to customers online.

“One of my best teaching skills is training people in personal development and self-confidence,” said Sharman, who enjoys the personal and business traveling that this training affords her.

She hopes to expand with her company into at least 50 countries in the next five years.

There has not been a strong voice or presence in the nation’s capital to represent these innovators, who neither have the money nor bandwidth to lobby or educate representatives on their needs and interests — until now.
