What have I been doing you ask??? RODAN+FIELDS Dermatology I tell you!

Don't I have 2 paying jobs already and countless non paying ones to go along with it?? The answers are yes, yes and yes again....so why yet another one you ask....well let me just tell you. No, I have not stumbled into a pit of insanity and no I am no hoarding secretive free time. Actually, I saw an opportunity that I just KNEW I could do and be successful at as! Well, get back to me in a few months and I'll let you know how it all turns out! :) but seriously so far has been super good. Back in December, McLean and Lisa D came to Greenwood for Christmas and she told me what she was about to do. I was like, "What?? You are taking on a job? Why on Earth...you have 3 kids, McLean makes plenty of money and I just didn't get it." Well, I am beginning to get it now. I have partnered with Lisa D and the Drs. Rodan &Fields, the amazing dermatologists that created Proactiv years ago!! They currently have a new line of skincare products that is just TAKING OFF around the country - and this time it's in ANTI-AGING....an even bigger market than acne!! Anyway, I joined the business as an independent consultant in January for 3 reasons....1. Because the doctors are credible, fabulous, reputable, and amazing! I truly believe that everything they put out there on the market is a clinically tested product that does what it says it's gonna do - they are that outstanding! 2. The products...."they sell themselves" True Dat. They are all amazing products for every type of skin issue out there. Everyone with SKIN should be considering Rodan + Fields!! 3. The risk and investment was minimal, while the potential is phenomenal...no cap!! So why not!! I am giving it a go.

Why am I blogging about this??? Because I want to tell everyone I know that may be looking for a job opportunity. Or may be needing some extra "shoe" money at the end of each month. Or wants to have something to call their OWN to succeed in. Or wants to work but desperately wants to stay home with their kids and be a part of everyday life. Or who used to be amazing at their job, before marriage and kids lost their identity (in a good way!). Or whose husband's job is barely getting them by each month. Or might have their own 9-5 job threatened in this economy. Or is considering going back to work after kids are in school, but not sure if they would be hired. Or basically ANY scenario.....I want to share this b/c it can work. It does work. As a consultant, we sell the product (which sells itself) and we build our own team. We get to PICK who we work with. They join with us and build THEIR own team. Your team consists of your friends and family who want to ride this to the top with you. The products and the doctors are HOT right now and this roller coaster is on it's way up! It's the perfect time to join on for the ride!

I really feel blessed to be a part of the Rodan + Fields team. I love the products. I love building my team of friends. And I love doing it all while I'm working full time at the moment and have an amazing, supportive and precious husband and family. This seems to be just for me. And it might be for you!

Our products were also recently featured on the Today Show as the "Must Have Anti-Aging Products of 2011"....WOW!! Totally unsolicited kudos!! :)

So far I have seen amazing results in my own skin and as I type this email I currently have 6 consultants under me who are getting started building their own teams. It's been quite a whirlwind I must say in just 2 short months. I've hosted my Big Business Launch where Elite Level V, Ali Box, came and did the business presentation as well as my sister in law, Lisa D, who got me started under her in this venture. It was a huge success and we are really taking off here in the Delta and beyond. You can keep up with me on Facebook to see where we may be heading next. Stay tuned!! I'm very excited to see what 2011 has in store for me.

Here are a few pictures from my Business Launch!

Ski Mississippi??? Well, not exactly....

Early 2011 has been a mega snow season here in the Mississippi Delta. This winter we had 2 pretty big snowfalls which only happens every 10 years I'd say. One was in January and then again in February. We allll had a great time. Needless to say as I blog on this post I am soooo done with Winter. Please bring on the bulbs and magic of Spring.
