Well, for those of you who haven't heard of Arbonne, it is an all natural skin care line that enhances your skin using all natural vitamins and minerals. It is pure, effective and safe! At least this is what I gathered from the presentation I saw. I still haven't gone through my training haha.
Let's start at the beginning of the story: I got a phone-call from one of my actress friends who works in the same dinner detective show I do. She said she was starting her own business and hosting a party where there would be facials and wine! Need I say more? Of course I was going to go and support her! I knew that the focus would be the product, but I wasn't going to buy anything; it was just gonna be fun. Little did I know that little party would change everything!
I showed up and the ambiance was as adorable as ever! We had snacks and wine and I got to meet a few new girls. We got this very elaborate facial and these products felt so amazing! Like magic on my skin.. you know what I mean: that moisturized, yet clean fresh skin feel? No? You haven't experienced that? Well, you HAVE to try this stuff! Uh- mazzing! I fell in love. I have also always struggled with acne and I'm 25. Shouldn't this be something that passes when I'm out of high school? So, I was very excited to see that there were products to target acne, but still left my face moisturized and not lacking the vitamins it needed for that natural glow! So excited!
All of this was great news... however, the part that most excited me was the business end of everything. They use a network marketing system that basically all sales businesses are jumping on the bandwagon with because it's effective. I have been approached with several other network marketing styled positions, but this was the first one I could actually get passionate about. I want to help people be the most beautiful versions of themselves and support a healthy chemical-free lifestyle.
I am somewhat terrified as everyone naturally is at the beginning of something new.You invest your time, emotions and energy into a new business venture and you hope they wont return void.. I am more excited however and that definitely helps. I've been out of sales for two years, so it will be fun to "hit the streets" again, so to speak. I have a track record of being very good at sales because it is essentially a science and a perseverance game. You have to do what you're trained to, trust it will work and people will invest.
My first party will be in exactly a week from today and I am so curious and excited for the outcome! Come on this adventure with me as I learn and build my own business. I promise all stories, boring, financial, funny and honest alike.
Phew. Take a breath. You can do this. Almost there. Now here we go, and the ..... leap!
