Thank you for visiting our site!

Three years ago, we began a journey that has given us more than we could have dreamed: time with our
family, additional income, but most importantly the knowledge that we have helped and continue to help
our Earth and people we meet in so many different ways.

I was previously a network administrator who loved working with computers and the daily challenges of
problem solving.  I had a good relationship with my co-workers, vendors, management and the like.  More
than twenty years of experience helped me work my way to a management position.  When I got there, I
found there was a hefty price to pay -- less time with my family and political nonsense.  Like so many of
us, I kept telling myself "There's got to be a better way!"

According to the American Heritage Dictionary, Successful means, "Having obtained
something desired or intended."
People everywhere struggle to reach the top, to be the best, live
stress-filled lives working 60-70 hours a week to impress others who are benefiting from their hard work,
only to retire with an income that is a fraction of their monthly salary! I don't know about you, but to me
this is not the definition of "successful", it is not "something desired or intended". Yet, every day we set
ourselves up for this "success".

I knew I had to do something different, take a step out of my comfort zone, think outside of the box, and
regain control of my future.  Many of you may be in the same position at your place of employment,
whether you are just starting out or have been in the same line of work for some five, ten or even twenty
and thirty years.  Some of you may be facing retirement in the not too distant future and are asking
yourself, "What am I going to do for the rest of my life?"  "How will we live on just this little bit?"

This was Bob's story.  At the time we started the business, he was facing retirement in under five years.  
From what we had read about network marketing, we knew that anything we started would help us in our
retirement years through residual income.  We just needed to find the right company to partner with, a
company that was well established, had a great support system in place, a history of taking care of its
distributors, and one positioned for global growth.  We also wanted a company that cared about their
customers, was a steward for the environment, and helped those in need.  This is when Bob introduced
me to our s
ponsor, Shirley, and Shaklee.  

He had done well as a distributor and ultimately, supervisor, for Shaklee in the late 70's and early 80's.  
And, while circumstances did not allow him to pursue his dreams of success at that time, he continued to
use the products.  When he rejoined Shaklee as a distributor with me i
n 2003 the company was still going
strong
, still writing peer reviewed papers for medical journals, still growing, and still the #1 Natural
Nutrition Company in the US!  They are getting better and better with age!  Are you in a stable company,
one with growth potential, benefits, and a retirement plan?  

At some point in our lives we have asked ourselves:
  • Do I have to go to work today?
  • College bills are mounting up, I need to get a job, but carrying a full course load leaves me little or
    no extra time!
  • How much traffic will I have to fight to get to work?
  • Annual increase evaluations are coming out -- will it be the same flat percentage as last year?
  • I've worked hard all my life to retire on a fraction of what I've been making?
  • Credit card fees just keep piling up!  Price of gas is skyrocketing!
  • Do I need another job just to pay for day to day living expenses? Another job means more time
    away from the family!

A possible solution is to own your own business, but that brings up other questions:
  • Can I afford to have my own business?
  • What kind of overhead is involved?
  • Will owning my own business give me more time with my family or away from them?
  • What happens when I want to take a vacation?
  • I want to be my own boss, own my own company, but is there a business out there that will allow me
    to do that?

You are here so obviously you are looking for a better lifestyle, financial freedom, ability to spend more
time with your family, or fulfilling your own special dreams.  Whatever your reason, I believe we can help
you find answers to your questions.

The links to presentations and web pages on this site will help you decide:
  • Is this business right for you?
  • And, if so, is this the company you want to partner with?

When you have finished looking through the information, please click on the
Contact Us page.  We would
like to hear from you -- whether or not you decide to join our team.

The only prerequisites to "success" in this business are:
  • belief in yourself
  • belief in the company you have partnered with
  • belief in the products you are using
  • share your knowledge with others

We wish you much success in achieving your dreams!
