Jeff Filali was born (Jeffrey Chaib Filali) in Tulsa Oklahoma on November 1, 1977 at St. Johns Medical Center to Mother Linda Alice (Holt) Filali (b. 01/21/1959 – d. 08/05/1994) and father Chaib (Chad) O. Filali. He grew up in and around the Tulsa Metro Area where he attended Elementary School at Clark Elementary of Union Public Schools and later transferred to Prue Junior High in Prue, Oklahoma and attended Prue High School until graduation in 1996.
After graduating High School in 1996 Mr. Filali attended Tulsa Community College taking evening classes Majoring in Business Administration. During which time he started a 50’s Style Full-Service Diner in the rural community of Hominy, OKLA. He built the business from the ground up and ran it for a little over 2 1/2 years. It became a very successful business doing over Half a Million per year in sales with a 20% profit margin. Which was not bad for being in a small community of just over 2,000 people and was quite a learning experience for Mr. Filali. However, after two years he decided that the restaurant industry was not where he wanted to be long term, nor did he see himself staying in such a small community.
So, he sold the business for a substantial profit and went into the Night Club and Adult Entertainment Business. This was quite an amazing feat being only 21 years old and running a Multi-Market Night Club and Entertainment Company. He developed a Marketing Campaign to attract high-end affluent clientele and built the business into a successful turnkey operation. But, again after two years of successful operations he realized again although it was a fun industry and the money was great that was not what he wanted to be doing for the rest of his life.
So, he left the Night Club business and went into Direct Sales becoming joining forces with a 50 year old Home Improvement Company. He became an instant success as one of the Top Salesmen of over 5,000 nationwide and was featured as #1 on several occasions. He had finally found his niche and was a natural for Sales. He developed his on marketing system, which produced an astonishing success rate and quickly began teaching other people to use his system. After a little over a year 9/11 happened and overnight the Co he was representing was going to be out of business.
So, he began looking for an opportunity to take his successful marketing system to the mass market. After a brief search, he hooked up with an OKC based Healthcare Marketing Co that was just marketing in Oklahoma at the time but he felt had the potential to be a Nationwide Fortune 500 Co. He immediately became the #1 Producer for the company by implementing his own system and was promoted to manage the Eastern OKLA Division of the company and after two very successful months decided to invest his life savings into a partnership and taking the Co Nationwide. He moved to OKC and took on the position of Executive VP of Marketing and Operations and immediately implemented his marketing system and developed a new concept product from inception to the mass market while developing all new marketing tools for success including: new scripts, training manuals, training program, conference calls, closing techniques, fliers, brochures, advertising etc along with his training system to teach his system to the mass market. He soon began traveling on a daily basis throughout the country recruiting and training new Agents for the company. In only 18 month’s he expanded the company into 17 states and recruited over 1,000 new agents. The Company was now operating in the Metro Areas of Oklahoma City, Tulsa, Denver, Colorado Springs, St. Louis, Kansas City, Joplin, Springfield, Wichita, Dallas, Ft. Worth, New Orleans, Baton Rouge, Indianapolis, Cincinnati, Dayton, Nashville, Pittsburgh, Philadelphia, Baltimore, Charleston WV, Phoenix, Tucson, Las Vegas, San Diego, Los Angeles, Sacramento, San Jose, Portland and Seattle. The co. was now a Multi-Million Dollar Co and things were looking great. This went on for another year and a half and then in November of 2004 it all came crashing to an end!! All the success and money was gone; because of the greediness and unethical practices of the Co. President. The concept behind the company was amazing but the management of the financial side of the company was a huge mess. Mr. Filali had lost his entire life savings and was broke for the first time in his life!!
So, he had to start over and took a few months to regroup and figure out what direction he would go next.
Over the past 6 years Mr. Filali had been recognized by many individuals and organizations throughout the United States as a Marketing Expert, with an extensive Successful background in Direct Marketing, Network Marketing and Internet Marketing. His patented personal “M.A.P to Success” or “Millionaires Action Plan” was developed over an extensive career as a Home Based Entrepreneur and was considered to be one of the simplest systems to build a business.
He had also been featured in the "Profiles in Success" of the following organizations: · IAHBE (International Association of Home Business Entrepreneurs)> · SFI Marketing Group · MLM Registry.org · Pre-Paid Legal Services, Inc · Covenant Group, LLC · Six Figure Income Magazine · Great Online Business.com · Mal Keenans’ Internet Marketing News · The Home Business Resource · Home Business Tips Newsletter · Making Money Sensibly Blog
So, after a brief vacation, he decided that it was best to continue in the Insurance and Direct Marketing industries. So, he relocated to Kentucky for a year to build up some capital and establish another portfolio of clients and has recently relocated back to the Tulsa, OKLA area, where he is starting a new Insurance and Financial Service Agency (Jeff Filali and Associates) and will take it nationwide over the next 36 months. JFA will be directly contracted to independently sell and broker with other agents the products of many major insurance companies including Allianz, Allstate, Americo, Assurant Health, BlueCross BlueShield of OKLA, Chesapeake Life, Fortis Health, Freedom Life, Golden Rule, Humana, Midland National Life, National Care Marketing, Time, UnitedAmerican and UnitedHealth.
