I thought I knew it all...

Okay, the other day our neighbor came over and invited us to his house on Friday night. We really like this guy, Ryan, and so thought out of politeness we would go over because he said it was about Melaleuca!

After having Brandi work in their call center, Frank work for VanderSloot on his ranch, and Theresa having a distributorship, I figured I really knew everything there is to know about Melaleuca. I use a lot of their products and love them but that's as far as it went. So, we went over just to be "nice" and Frank was pretty well grumbling the whole time about how, "I hate these things..." which continued after we got there for several minutes (under his breath of course).

VanderSloot's oldest daughter, LaurieKae, came up from Utah to give the presentation and did an excellent job. So much so, that by the end of the presentation she made the comment that if you were interested and wanted to sign up for $29 we would get a bottle of Renew.

Not knowing that Frank was really impressed with the heart health and cholesteral products they had talked about and wanting to see if it would help him, I said that I hadn't brought my checkbook. Frank said, "We live just across the street, I will go get it." I was shocked! He was so impressed with the products that he really wanted to sign up!

What I learned that night... First of all, if you like their products it's worth it. They have a bunch of new products that are all enviromentally friendly (heck, your kid could drink their cleaner and it would make him sick but wouldn't kill him like so many others).

I already knew I love the Painatrate, Attain, Nicole Miller make up, etc. so knew I wouldn't have a problem ordering $50 worth every month, besides the vitamins and stuff Frank wanted. So, I will be trying more of their products and just changing where I shop. I'm buying from myself instead! Everyone that night said how they love the toothpaste. Go figure. Guess I will try it!

Second, if you want to build a small business with it... Once you get someone to sign up under you, they become their own customer so you don't have do orders for them, etc. You can build a line under you but you don't have to worry about their orders, etc. And, there are a lot of perks and bonuses along the way without a lot of effort. Things like shopping online with Target, Kohl's, etc and getting a 15% discount!

And, it doesn't break the bank to sign up. No large investments like most companies. Just the $29 and your first order for yourself! They do have some packages that have a bunch of products at cost and that's what I'm doing so I can more products without spending much moola! Heck, maybe I will get enough people under me to get the car allowance of $400 every month! Well, I'm not holding my breath yet.

So, if you want Melaleuca products....

After working at Melaleuca for as long as I did, all I have to say is good luck!! It is a great company, but it does take a lot of hard work to get that car allowance - lots of requirements! I'm with my mom though, if I need anything, I'll get it through you to help with your monthly points.
