SUCCESS STRATEGY:

“Build an unshakeable belief in yourself and your business, share it with passion, and people will follow.”

Maggie Easton of Oakville, Ontario, thought she knew it all when it came to network marketing. But when she discovered products that sell themselves, and a business that fits her every need, she realized she'd never seen a business quite like Arbonne!

Well, the day has finally arrived. I am sitting on an airplane with my husband Joe, heading toward my first-ever NVP Retreat in Maui. All NVPs are gifted with this amazing annual trip! It represents the achievement of the goal I set out to accomplish five years ago. I always believed that if you worked hard for something you really believed in, you could achieve anything. The problem was, I never really believed in anything enough to give it my all ... until Arbonne!

I spent the first 13 years after graduating from university working for local government as a Civil Engineer, designing roads and traffic signal systems. Sounds exciting, eh? After I had my two beautiful children, Bryanna (19) and Brock (17), I knew I had to make some changes. Working eight-hour days, commuting two hours a day, rushing to pick up the kids from daycare before the 6 p.m. deadline, spending weekends doing laundry, groceries and kids' activities — I am exhausted again just thinking about it! Sound familiar?

In 2000, I quit my job and began to search for a business that fulfilled all of my criteria for a balanced life: 1) Flexibility — the ability to work my business around my family. 2) A product or service I could offer with integrity and honesty and that sold itself (I am not a salesperson). 3) I wanted to make a difference. 4) A generous income. Needless to say, I searched for a long time, and even tried a few other network-marketing businesses along the way. The last one I worked very hard at for five years. None of them were able to satisfy all of my desires.

I was introduced to Arbonne by my friend and mentor, ENVP Valerie Darien. I was not an easy sell. I thought I knew everything about home-based businesses. But Val was pleasantly persistent and the products really did sell themselves. Once she had my attention with the products, the business was a no-brainer. For the first time, a business actually met every one of my criteria for a balanced life. I wake up every day excited for what each day holds. How cool is that?

My new goal is to help anyone that truly wants to change their life and reach the top of the company, no matter how long it takes. Because once you reach paradise, it doesn't really matter how long it took you to get there. The key to success is to build unshakeable belief in yourself and your business, and share it with passion. Consistently offer both the product and the opportunity to everyone without worrying about what their answer will be. Ask many questions to find out if their need is product, business or both. We are really more like detectives than salespeople. Can you find four people in this world who want to change their lives and be part of something incredible, and then help them find four people, and so on? There are people everywhere just waiting for us to ask.

The only way to be successful in Arbonne is to embrace the very unique culture of helping others. This is so easy to do because there is no competition in Arbonne. By utilizing the power of the internet to place orders through Arbonne's website or a Consultant's MyArbonne website and deliver products to our customers, we no longer rely on our neighbourhoods to build a business. We know people everywhere! The six women in my immediate neighbourhood who earned and drive the Arbonne white Mercedes-Benz are proof that the world is our market. As such, all Arbonne Independent Consultants have the same opportunity to build a successful business from home. The fact that Arbonne is just beginning its global expansion, with a 32-plus year history of success behind us in an exploding health and wellness market, is just icing on the cake. The Arbonne products sell themselves, but I truly believe the best product we have to offer is this amazing opportunity. I have an amazing gift to offer, but only for those who are open to dreaming, believing, growing and helping others ... is that you?

I encourage everyone who is considering this business opportunity to jump in with both feet. Follow your upline's system for success and be extremely coachable. Remember, the best copycat wins in this business because it is all about duplication. The simpler the system, the easier it is to duplicate. I am proof positive that you don't need to know anything about skin care, cosmetics, or health and wellness to be successful. Arbonne's outstanding online training, along with the incredible Field Leaders, will provide you with all the product knowledge you need to be successful. You have nothing to lose and everything to gain. Throw your ego aside and follow your heart and your dreams.

I have watched the incredible members of my team grow and achieve things they never believed possible. To have so many people say, “Thank you for introducing me to Arbonne and for changing my life” — there is no greater reward. I am committed to empower and guide every single Consultant on my team to achieve the goals they desire.

To ENVP Valerie Darien: I am forever grateful that you were so pleasantly persistent and did not give up on me. Your incredible vision and guidance has helped me see the possibilities ahead for all of us. I love you and cherish our friendship.

To ERVP Lori Andrews, ERVP Danielle Larice, ERVP Carla Lupo, RVP Santina and Frank Cuconato and RVP Suzanne Hamilton: I am so grateful you all have come into my life and for what we are going to share in the future. We have just begun to enjoy the amazing rewards of having Arbonne in our lives.

To my direct Area Managers, Sandra Messier, Cathy McMahon and Paula Anstett, Lisa Morgan-Long and Anna-Lisa Mantesso: I cannot wait for the day I hand over the keys to your beautiful white Mercedes-Benz ... Beep, beep! I believe with all my heart that each one of you has the ability to help others change their lives, and this will bring you success.

To my direct District Managers, Shannon Paret, Pam Hebert and Dr. Jenna Davis: I admire your perseverance and determination. Believe that as you build your belief in yourself, your business will grow along with it.

To all of my Consultants and SuccessLine Managers: Together we are a Nation, and together we are building strong businesses for our families' futures. Let's lock arms with commitment to work consistently and ensure we are designing our best life possible.

To my Arbonne crossline: Wow, this is the only business I have ever seen where crossline sisters and brothers open up their businesses and lives to help each other. Each and every one of you has been part of my success. I have learned so much from those who paved the path before me, and I cherish the friendships we have and continue to build.

To my best friend, Mandy: I will never forget that you were my very first customer and very best cheerleader. Thank you for believing in me.

My journey from Civil Engineer to Arbonne NVP would never have been possible without the continued support and love of my husband, Joe. With each new business venture, he supported me and cheered me on. My new goal is to help him design his best life. My children, Bryanna and Brock, are the glue that binds us all together. I am so grateful for their love and for the time we have to share together, especially in their teenage years. As they begin their own life journey, I truly believe Arbonne has had an incredible impact on their lives (after all of those Learn & Burns™ they were forced to listen to in the car, they can't help but be on the right track).

Finally, a special thank you to all of the staff at the Arbonne Home Offices for their dedication to creating a company that I am so proud to represent.
