In 1993 I moved my family from New Hampshire (where we lived in the projects) to Florida. At the time I was a single Mom and my daughters, Ariel and Faith, were ages 8 and 6.

We traveled by greyhound bus with 3 boxes of belongings to our name. My first year in Florida, I earned $8,000 for the entire year. Needless to say, we were living at the poverty level. Soon I was introduced to my future husband …James. We met on a blind date in January of 1994. He also was broke (due to a messy divorce and a financial reversal) and living with his mother (at the age of 45 … can you imagine?) I asked him, “ What do you do for a living.” and he replied, “I’m in Marketing.” I had no clue what that meant.

Together, James and I rented a tiny house in a run down neighborhood in a bad part of town. But that was the least of our struggles. James was determined to make a living with Multi-Level Marketing, but was having little success.

To make ends meet I was cleaning houses on the side and working as a hair stylist. We didn’t have any money and was too proud to ask for help from any family members. And on top of that, there is groceries, gas, childcare, clothing, and transportation (which eats up a large portion of a woman’s income). Discouraged as I was, I decided to go back to college to earn a degree, so I could get a better paying job.

James and I are not lazy or uneducated people, he retired from the Navy as a Chief Warrant Officer. After he departed the military service, he was not willing to work for someone else and was determined to build a Home Based Business.

Several years later………………… One of James’s business acquaintance (who turned out to be James’s best man at our wedding) stopped by to show us his new in-home business opportunity. He was very excited and got my husband excited as well. Bob asked me to come and listen to his presentation, but I was completely skeptical. I just sat there with my arms folded giving him the evil eye. However, my husband jumped right in and joined him. He purchased inventory by borrowing his brothers credit card. (remember, my husband didn’t have any money)

Before I knew it, my husband was working this business full time. He was able to pay his brother back in short order. I did not participate in any way to help, I just figured him being such a determined person, he was going to do it no matter what.

Just 9 months later he was earning $10,000+ a month. I decided to join him in his venture.

As important as money is needed to live, just as importantly to me was self-esteem and self-worth by knowing what I did made a difference for others. You can get that by owning and running your own business.

Today 20 million people work from home and the Internet represents one of the greatest economic revolutions in history – and actually, it’s just getting started. In today’s world, working for yourself is actually the safer route because working for a corporation has become a risky proposition.

Not only have changing tax laws leveled the playing field, but also changes in technology have actually tilted that field toward individual entrepreneurs, giving them the distinct edge. Home-based businesses are one of the fastest-growing segments in our economy, and that trend will only continue.

Can you imagine you working from home in your own business.

Great! However, you need to know this up front. You must treat it like a real business, not a hobby or a game to play only when you feel up to it.

Our chosen home-based business is perfectly poised to flourish in this environment and offer unprecedented opportunity to an unprecedented number of people. We believe you’ll like what we are doing.

Your kitchen and dinning room are now your workplaces.

Okay, you’re probably wondering HOW!

Well initially, we did seminars, one-on-one presentations, training lunches, business breakfast briefings and several other fun type marketing techniques. We are presently and steadily moving towards automation.

One thing for sure, you need to enjoy it and want it. You are a role model. Other women see how you do it and copy you. This is called leadership-influence. See yourself doing this with class and style and grace, even when you do not feel like it.

With this will come not only enormous personal wealth, but also the affirmation and strengthening of moral and family values. There is personal growth and freedom that comes with owning your own home-based business and controlling your own destiny.

This means that your home is your workplace. Obviously, no one just stumbles blindly into a successful home-based career. Imagine what it would be like if you are exposed to training, materials, education, tools for developing belief systems and management systems that you are not likely to find anywhere else.

The skills you are likely to learn include computer and internet proficiency, public speaking ability, leadership development, product knowledge, marketing techniques, instructional abilities, one on one communications techniques and more. And this skill base will help you in every thing else you do in life. We can teach you this and more.

Here’s a secret: You do not have to reach the top level in our business to be successful.

If I bring you in to our company, and then you fail, I am the one who loses.

I lose all the time I spent training you. And all you have lost is the nominal cost for your company representative package. We have a saying in our business that, “ you only win when you help others.” In other words, it behooves us to ensure you succeed.

As you read every word of this bio you’ll discover helping other people make smart economic choices, create a business that they can operate from home, spend more time with their families and build a stream of residual income at the same time– and helping so many different people do this-offers it’s own rewards, far above and beyond the monetary rewards.

My family is important to me. I come from a large Irish family. I think the loneliest business people I see today are those whose children have no idea what their parents do. If you are able to teach your children what it is you do, what it is that they are economically dependent upon, and even better, if they can actually see you doing it and even participate in some meaningful way, then this destructive and alienating rift between work and home starts to dissolve.

Our daughters participated in our business from the start. By stamping and stuffing envelopes, putting packages together and making phone calls ( when she was a little older) Teach them and include them in your business. (by the way, their allowance was tax deductable).

My kids have never been an interference– they are my purpose in life. We rewarded them by taking them on trips all over the world. It doesn’t matter how much money you earn if you never get to see your spouse or your children. This is a benefit a home-based business brings beyond money.

You probably already know this, but the only way you are ever going to accumulate a significant amount of wealth is through leveraged passive income, which is another term for residual income. Residual income is income that continues to flow after the work that created it has been completed – income that is , in other words, residual remaining from the original effort.

This is one of the features I like best about our business. Not everyone will be able to afford a big piece of income generating real estate, write a bestselling book or sing a hit song. But our business provides an opportunity for everyone, regardless of background, specialized skills, or accrued capital wealth – to create a significant residual income.

Fortunately, the single most important factor that determines how successful you will be is under your complete control: that factor is YOU.

Your rewards are directly proportional to the quality of your own efforts, but you know what? We are fond of saying that you are in business for yourself, but you certainly are not in business by yourself. You can count on us to help you.

James and I were married on August 17, 1997. All of my sisters and all of his brothers were in the ceremony. Then we honeymooned in Paris, France. We have also traveled to Hawaii, Maui and Waikiki, British Virgin Island, St. Thomas, Puerto Rico, Jamaica, Cayman Island, Cancun Mexico, Iguzul Falls in Brazil and Argentina and Rio de Janeiro, and just last year, a cruise up the coast of Alaska.

We were able to bring our Mothers and children with us on several of these trips. Now listen closely, all were paid for by the company.

We have received numerous top awards in our business and helped many people on our team succeed as well. I don’t tell you this to impress you but to impress upon you that our company has been around for awhile and we have real staying power. And we will be around for you to help you learn the ropes.

We are not a “get rich quick.” However, we are definitely a vehicle for getting rich. Okay, your probably wondering how long does it take?

You should expect to put in reasonable, part time consistent effort for one to several years. In that amount of time you should be able to create the basis for a significant stream of long-term residual income. The final criterion is your commitment to work at it, diligently and seriously, with the commitment of an entrepreneur. Listen, the rewards are well worth it.

As a Christian woman, I would not want to make money at other peoples expense. Part of my joy is helping people live better. I love talking to Mothers and people in general and want to make a difference in their lives. I would encourage you to give us a look and make a commitment. If we are not the best home based business today you can always do something else.

If you do, at least stop and ask yourself this question. “What would my life look like if I could have it any way I wanted it?”

Helping others live better – that’s our motto.

You are ready for success, aren’t you?
