​EXAMPLE #1 – MY STORY (Name  Who you are and where you’ve been:  I am a mother of 3 and a housewife. I shared Shaklee very part time (like a hobby - when it was convenient) to earn an additional $500 a month to use for EXTRAS like vacations and outings for the family. I have been using the Shaklee products for years and love them. What’s happened in your life to cause you to look for more: As my kids were heading off to college and my husband was nearing what is suppose to be retirement age at 55, we knew he would not be able to retire at 55 if we did not change anything. How you heard about your company and why you had to be a part of it: I had been using these products since I was a little girl because my parents had build a 6 figure income with them. We loved the shaklee products and knew the business model worked. We knew that many other people could benefit from this company both physically and financially like we had; and felt like we were being somewhat selfish by not sharing it with others. We actually felt a calling. What is it doing for you or going to do for you: We decided to build a team so my husband could retire. Our 1st goal was to build the business enough to replace the income he would lose when he retired. We did that in 2 years and I am happy to say he retired on his 55th birthday. We are continueing to build the business (because we love it - helping others to live a lifestyle mostonly dream of and to be part of such an amazing community) so we can retire 10 to 15 years down the road with no worries of financial obligations or what may come. Also, knowing that our children will always be taken care of financially because of the income this business will produce year after year after year passing down from generation to generation. Here’s what it sound like put all together: I grew up with Shaklee and have enjoyed the benefits of the products and the income it produces because my parents were successful business leaders earning a 6 figure income with the compnay. I shared Shaklee as a hobby while my children were growing to be able to stay home with them and earn a little extra income for travel and trips with the family. Then my husband talked of retirement and we knew this would not happen if nothing changed. Since we knew the products and business model worked first hand - we decided to take a closer look to what this could mean for us as a business. Once we understood the passive income part and that we could continue to earn year after year (and not have to work) we decided it was time to start building. After just 2 years, my husband retired on his 55th birthday and we now have a team with leaders building all over the country and we get to be a part of a community we love. We get paid to help others feel their best and build a lifestyle most only dream of. And did I mention the travel? Luxurious travel all over the world included.
