Your MLM business is WILLABLE! WHAT?! YEP!


Let's chat briefly about this amazing feature of you MLM Network Marketing business!  DID YOU REALIZE IT IS WILLABLE?  Oh yes it is sister!  You can also SELL your book of business!  This is true for most companies that I am aware of.  Double check your Company and their contracts but YOU NEED TO KNOW! 
And you also need to make sure your business is handled.  Be sure your paperwork is in order and your personal affairs are ON POINT!  None of us want to think about this possibility but HELLO... We are empowered! 
We handle our business!

On 12/31/14 I officially retired from the position I held in Corporate America for over 20 years.  I gave it all up for my Network Marketing biz!  Let me tell you, even as blessed as I have been with my MLM company, this was not an easy life change for me to make!

I earned multiple six figures in my previous job.  In 2009 I earned over $400k in one year.  I don't mind sharing that in the last 10 years or so, my annual salary (not including 2009) averaged $150k-$200k.  LISTEN!  That may not seem like much to you.  However, for this self doubting, non-degreed, work-your-way-up-from-the-bottom-to-the-top gal, it was HUGE!  In my late 20's, I thankfully recognized the need to manage my money well.  I stayed out of debt, I married a man with the same goals and someone on the same page financially.  Looking back, I pat myself on the back but its NOTHING compared to what is coming up.  Since I was able to make those decisions early on, it has put me in the position I am today.  The position to be able to chose.

I was comfortable in the knowledge that I could support my kids on my own if needed.  That I had "made it" in my environment.  I was a top performer in that company.  In fact, I was ranked Top 6 every year I held my last position.  Most years I was in the top 3 performers.

I've shared before how much I love the company I (used) to work for!  I love the people, I loved that I could work from home, basically set my own schedule and you know I LOVED having a company vehicle!  I haven't had a car payment in about 10 years!  That was awesome!  The incentive trips were great, the 401K, the health insurance was reasonable and the salary seemed (for the most part) fair.  I was comfortable. I knew what I was doing day in and day out.  I could do a majority of my job in my sleep.  Sounds pretty amazing right?  I thought it was a dream job.  And then I was introduced to Network Marketing!

So... why in the heck would I waltz away from such a sweet gig to sell products and mentor others to do the same?  BECAUSE I'M A BELIEVER IN MORE!  SPOILER ALERT!  Someday soon I plan to share my entire story in a lifestyle video so I won't drone on and on here.  Just know.... I BELIEVE THERE IS MORE! 

Maybe this industry can give you more too.  Maybe you can do more with a Network Marketing company than you ever thought you could?  YOU CAN!

I was capped out at my job and I knew we wanted more!  I knew I could earn more! I had more in me.  I DESERVED MORE!  I mean seriously!  Look at what I accomplished with the limitations put on my by the corporate world.  All that with ZERO college education!  I was a pregnant teen on "the system" in 1990 and FLASH FORWARD to 2014.... WOW RIGHT!?  Not to toot my own horn but I created something pretty amazing with my life. 

Network Marketing allows ANYONE from ANY walk of life the same opportunity to achieve.  You only need to commit.  For two years I've been working 2 full time jobs.  It was time to let one go... guess which one...  I'M A FREE WOMAN!

#TheHubs and I recently updated our will and I had a major light bulb moment.  MY MLM business is WILLABLE to my family!  WHAT THE WHAT?!  When I die, my children (or anyone I chose) can inherit my business!  They can manage it, or sell it!  You probably don't need me to tell you how awesome that is! 

PLEASE protect yourself and your family!  In 2015 please be sure to update your personal documents and that your network marketing company is protected if something were to happen to you.  In most cases, your business can be passed onto anyone you chose.  If your children are under age, you can assign someone to manage it for them.  You can give your direction to sell your book of business and gift the proceeds to anyone you chose.  LOOK INTO IT!

I'm EXHAUSTED!  But it's BLISSFUL exhaustion!


WOW!  What a week I've had!  In the last 4 days I traveled from Anchorage, AK to Fairbanks, AK then from Fairbanks back to Anchorage then from Anchorage to Vegas and from Vegas back to Anchorage!  and....BOY ARE MY ARMS TIRED (buh-dum-dum)!

In Fairbanks I was able to see my son at the airport!  Passing like ships in the night!  He was coming in as I was headed out!  There is ALWAYS time for kiss, a hug and a SELFIE!  He works as a Firefighter and Medic at Kuparuk which is in the Prudhoe Bay Oilfields at the very tippy top of Alaska... GOOGLE IT!


I was also able to meet with one of my favorite people in the WORLD!  SueAnn
SueAnn was the second person to join my Younique adventure.  She is also a Founding Presenter and she is one of my First Generation Elites!  Its so nice to spend one on one time with other leaders in our company.  Its rare!  Mostly because we are all so busy managing our own books of business!

 
SueAnn is HILLARIOUS!  Here she is mimicking the cover photo from our Fall 2013 Catalog!  CRACKING US UP!  Love that woman!



I saw a few other team members while I was there as well.  BUSY 12 hours!  PHEW!

This weekend was my only free weekend in MONTHS and I needed to pop into our home in Vegas to take care of a few things so OFF I WENT!  While there, I was so fortunate to be able to interview with an amazing woman named Susan!  I'm so hopeful she chooses me as her sponsor.  Regardless, Younique will be lucky to have her!  So many beautiful women with so many amazing stories! 

I met with Katrina which was GREAT FUN and she gifted me this awesome 3D Keychain!  HOW SWEET IS SHE? 


Vegas is always GREAT but I made one HUGE, ROOKIE, Direct Sales mistake that I still can't stop thinking about!  Wanna hear what it was?  CLICK HERE FOR THE VIDEO RECAP OF  MY MISSADVENTURE!  Hindsight is always 20/20 right? 

BELIEVE YOU ME!  I more than made up for this on the plane ride home!  The poor guy next to me went home with a catalog and 4 business cards with a challenge to give them to 4 very specific types of women!  LOL!  Oddly, I don't think he thought I was nuts at all....  hmmmm....

I have had sleeping issues for years.  Before I even started working my Younique business, it was very rare that I would experience a full 4 hours+ of sleep!  I'm not sure why exactly.  I did all the right things.  I have a beautiful and relaxing environment, set to the ideal temperature, fine linens, a great mattress, perfect pillows... THE WORKS!  I've read every article, consulted my doctor, changed my eating habits, taken sleep aids...I've TRIED IT ALL I TELL YAH!  No dice!

Then I started my Younique business (Mar 2013) and for the first 6-8 months NEVER slept.  Literally didn't sleep more than a couple hours at a time.  But, the difference was, I had my business to work on instead of laying there in bed, frustrated that I was awake when I should have been sleeping!  I WORKED ALL THE TIME!  I loved it!  It really isn't work at all of course if you are doing something you are MADLY IN LOVE WITH right?  SO TRUE!

For about the last 3 months or so I haven't had any problem sleeping at all.  My brain is so exhausted each night, I just seem to collapse in the sack!  LIGHTS OUT the instant my head hits my pillow!  Sleeping every night with a huge smile on my face.  That has been a great improvement!

For the last couple of weeks I have been feeling exhausted though.  Like during the day.  I think I need to work on setting some office hours and finding a bit more balance.  I don't feel stress about it but I don't like feeling tired during the day either.  Im exhausted but it is BLISSFUL EXHAUSTION!

If you struggle with no sleep...I invite you to feel BLISSFULLY EXHAUSTED WITH ME!

This last weekend (4th of July) I spent quite a bit of time being THANKFUL for my freedom.  Thankful for all those that gave so that I may have.

 For me, freedom comes, in part, from FINANCIAL FREEDOM.  Although The Hubs and I have always managed our money well, stayed out of debt, earned higher than average incomes, invested etc...  The last 8 months with YOUNIQUE have changed everything we thought about our future and what is possible for us.

The Hubs and I went camping (again... I KNOW!  BUT WE ONLY HAVE LIKE 10 weekends a year we can go!) and we spent a lot of time discussing our future, our possibilities, our freedoms.  Everything we do, we do for our family and the future of our family.  Younique and Network Marketing companies in general, are an answer to the prayers of so many.

Have you met my beautiful family? 



I loved this video posted today by Eric Worre  on his website today!

PLEASE WATCH and consider what FREEDOM means to you then SHARE those thoughts with your loved ones.  Work them into your goals and your dreams and be thankful and GROW!

Watch out!  I'M ABOUT to GET THE GEEK OUT.....

 Derek Maxfield, YOUNIQUE CO-Founder, Shared these amazing facts with us today!  I thought you might get a kick out of this EXCITING 411!



Presenter GrowthBy June 01, 2013 we had 611 Presenters total in the Younique Family.
This June 1 we reached 41,910 Presenters total in the Younique Family.
That’s 6,759% growth in case you’re wondering!
 
Corporate EmployeesIn June 2013, Younique had 7 employees.
This June Younique Corporate has grown to over 125 full-time equivalent employees.
That’s 1,686% growth!


Daily OrdersBy the end of May 2013, we were processing an average of 55 orders per day.
This May we processed an average 5,278 orders per day.
That’s 9,496% growth!  No wonder we are having to move into a new warehouse! 

Monthly SalesIn June 2013, our sales for the entire month were $169K.
On June 01, 2014 we processed $169K in sales before shipping even went home for the day!  Even if we used May sales numbers, which were 12.8 million, that’s 7,474% growth!  In 12 months! 

 WICKED AWESOME EH?  There are currently just over 44k YOUNIQUE Presenters GLOBALLY!  23,158 of them are in my company!  Since I only sponsored 51 of these beauties... the credit for this massive growth belongs with my AMAZING TEAM!  They ARE ROCK STARS!
 
As we are getting our sights set on launching in UK, I am very excited to have made a connection with a possible future Presenter there!  This is huge for my business personally because, as a leader in the company, I find it SHAMEFUL that I have zero personal connections with presenters in any of our foreign countries!  I'm very excited and hopeful for Nadia and so thankful that she connected with me!  What the heck kind of leader can I be if I'm not personally supporting someone in each of our active Countries?

When you buy something from Younique, or from any MLM company, have you ever wondered where your money goes? 


One of the beautiful things about a Direct Sales business is that your Presenter or Consultant can tell you EXACTLY WHERE IT GOES!


I thought this was an important exercise for my business.  So much so that I made a video about it to share with my customers and my team.   You can view that video by CLICKCING HERE.

I feel, that if we, as Independent Presenters with ANY MLM company, can somehow use this tool to educate our customers, there are many that would find value in this information.

I have a personal relationship with my entire upline that benefit from my efforts.  Even the Founders of YOUNIQUE.  I know their families and their mission for this company and I am 100% ON BOARD!  I would love for you to learn more about the Founders BY CLICKING HERE.

When someone buys makeup at the grocery store or department store, that information isn't nearly as available or as personal.


So, a quick note of THANKS to my customers and supporters.  I thought you would enjoy meeting the women who's lives are impacted because you chose to buy make up and skincare from ME!
