How and why to start your own home business.

Becoming a Shaklee distributor has helped me in countless ways. If you are interested in becoming healthier, and wealthier, it's worth checking into! Don't walk past YOUR fortune. Check this out!

Do you want to start your own home business? 

Hi,
My name is Carrie, and among other things, I am a Shaklee independent distributor. I am a mother of two kids. My son is 20 years old, and my daughter is 2 1/2! I have always been a busy person. Since high school, I have always had at least 2 things going on- either 2 jobs or a job and school, or a job and college. Also, I have been a mom since 1987.
I have always been interested in science and medicine. When I was 20, I got a job working in an "Intermediate Care Facility". This is a home for profoundly mentally retarded people. While working there, I took a short course in medicine, so that I could be certified to pass medications, and give insulin shots. After working there a year, I took a course to become a Certified Home Health Aide. I went around to people's homes to assist in their care. Next I went back to school for nursing, and in 1993 received my LPN license. While working in a nursing home as a nurse, I went back to school to become a Lab Tech. Finally, I thought, I've found what I want to do! I love being a lab tech, and now specialize in microbiology. Recently, the NY State Education Department required all lab techs to be licensed, so now I am a Licensed Medical Technologist officially.

I have been working as a lab tech for about 8 years now. I really like what I do, and I make a decent income, but it just wasn't enough. I started working a second job per diem in a different hospital. It brought in some extra money, but it took me away from my little girl, which didn't fly well with me. Also, I was tired of having such a tight schedule. I knew there was money to be made online, so I started checking into that. I signed on with a couple of scam companies, and lost a lot of money. Good job Carrie! I have some invention ideas, but you need money to get going with that kind of thing, too. I decided to try and do some selling on ebay. I know there are people who make some good money with ebay, but not me. I've had some fun with it, but the fees are just so high that by the time I calculated my money in compared to my money out, I was in the hole. Wonderful!

Enter Shaklee. One day, I decided to go home a different way from work. I was driving along, and happened to notice a giant Shaklee sign and Shaklee trailer in a driveway. In a round about way, I know of this person, and that he had started a new business. (It's a small town) Well he was driving a nice vehicle, his house was recently remodeled, and he was no longer working on cars out of his garage like he used to. My curious nature got the best of me. When I got home, I did a search on Shaklee, and loved what I saw.

Shaklee is a health and wellness company. This was right up my alley. I had been trying to help people become healthy my whole working life!

Shaklee has a whole line of products to help people become more healthy. All of their products are natural, environmentally friendly, and 100% guaranteed. They have nutritional supplements to help treat almost any ailment you may have, and I have talked to many people who use these supplement who say they have never felt better, and would never use any other product. Hmm, I thought. Repeat customers that will never leave...

Digestive Health products
Immunity Support products
Pain Control products
Sports Nutrition products
Womens Health products

I started paying more attention to the fact that everyone is "going green". Shaklee has been "green" for over 50 years. Their "Get Clean" cleaning products were featured on Oprah 5 times in 2007 and in March '08 were on the Rachel Ray show. What's all this? Well, come to find out, most store-bought cleaners contain harsh chemicals that are at best caustic, and at worst carcinogenic! These cleaners contribute from everything to childhood asthma, to sinus infections, to rashes, and even cancer. Shaklee's cleaners are all natural, and clean just as well- if not better- without exposing our families to all these chemicals.

Shaklee also makes all natural cosmetics, beauty and personal care products, and has excellent air and water purification products.

Wow! I thought. I can actually get behind these products. But I don't have any business training, and have no idea about how to start a business. Guess what? Shaklee has that covered, too!
The Freedom Project is an online business training course designed to teach new Shaklee distributors how to start up and run their business.
They tell you step by step, and day by day, exactly what to do and say and how! New Shaklee distributors who follow this business model average between $2000 and $4000 a month by the end of their first year!

To sum it all up: Shaklee gives average people an extraordinary opportunity to start your own business from scratch. No prior business education is required, the financial investment is small, and the potential for building a very lucrative company is virtually unlimited! Also, this business is transferrable, so when you are ready to retire, it can be passed down to your children. Don't walk past YOUR fortune.

    It's nice to see Shaklee is still doing well. I worked for them in the '60s when they first got into the biodegradable products, Dr.Shaklee was so far ahead in his time with these products...I designed lables and prochures for them as an assistant art director. I loved Dr.Shaklee and his wife, they where such down to earth people, I was Blessed to have had them in my life....5*

    Great Len definitely a 5*. I will save this to my favorites and come back when I have more time. Let's talk in New Orleans. I will be in the Networking Lounge hopefully with a crowd of people, sharing ideas, and strategies to make the most of the technology that is available to all of us on the Internet.

    Great lens 5*. I commiserate with your attempts at earning extra money, it's not easy. Too bad you lost money on those scams. i hope shaklee works out for you. As for me, I think these kinds of businesses are great if you know and/or interact with a lot of people.. if you don't it's not worth it. Just my 2 cents.
