“Apriori Beauty is the perfect fit for my lifestyle and my desire to look and feel great everyday! Just last week, an old Client of mine asked why I decided to switch skincare lines, to Use and Share Apriori Beauty. My answer, DESIRE! When I was given the opportunity to experience the products, I so desired to look/feel young again and I desired to dream again! Both desires came ‘alive’ when I used the Apriori Beauty products in the Turn Back Time Capsule sample.
“To some it may sound funny to say ‘things came ALIVE’ after using the Time Capsule sample, but recently my husband and I have gone through really tough times financially and even had to short sell an investment property. These experiences left me feeling lost in so many ways. I fell in love with the RESULTS the Apriori Beauty samples provided, and this is when my mind began racing with ideas, possibilities and excitement. The Time Capsule sample offered me the chance to dream again. I had been involved in a similar business and I knew from prior experience that I could once again create: an excellent residual income, NEW friendships, and all kinds of fun.
“After talking in depth with Kim Kearns about her experience with Apriori Beauty, I knew I found something SIMPLE & FUN that I could build on-my-own time, alongside being a real estate investor and a realtor. Oh, I must mention, getting paid weekly, LOVE IT, BRILLANT, and on a pay card. I JUST LOVE THIS SIMPLE, FUN, SHARING SYSTEM!
“To get started, I ordered my All-in-One set and the day it arrived at my home, I was so excited, I almost felt goofy. I began experiencing all of the products … they are what I call ‘FANTABULOUS.’ Seriously, Apriori Beauty, you created an AMAZING product line that works so beautifully, and is super easy to share with others! I love it all, have to have it all and it all works. My new addiction is the DFI. REALLY, I should say Apriori Beauty is my new addiction, cause I need and love it ALL!
“So, I went to work … I ordered my samples and began calling everyone I knew, and started mailing out and handing out samples. The coolest part is so many people I shared samples with began emailing or calling me back before I had a chance to follow-up. They were all RAVING about how fabulous their skin looked and felt with the sample. This makes it even easier to keep picking up the phone to tell others they are going to love experiencing Apriori Beauty.
“I was also fortunate to have a launch party in November. My sponsor, Kim Kearns came to AZ to make it fabulous. Together, we really got the attention of my friends. We shared with the gals how this business is built one relationship and one Turn Back Time Capsule at a time. My friends loved how simple this business is to do and as a result, many could see this would fit into their hectic schedules. They could see themselves sharing the samples with their friends. The night I launched, I had three friends sign-up as Consultants! Now we could really start having fun and making money together, which is so exciting!
“I also take advantage of Facebook as a way to easily connect with friends and to offer them an experience with a Time Capsule sample. I already have friends in Canada who love the products and are waiting for the day we open for business there!
“In December, two gals on my team and I did our 1st Apriori Beauty Booth and it was a great 1st run! I love doing a business like Apriori Beauty through booths/tradeshows as it’s an easy and fun way to build my cold market. My team and I are looking for inexpensive booths we can participate in together in 2012.
“At Christmas, my husband Pete and I had a party and all the female guests left with a sample to experience and enjoy. I am now reaping the benefits of those samples with Consultant and Client sign-ups after follow-up.
“As a realtor, I give all my Clients a sample to experience. This has helped me build a decent Client base. Additionally, we own two vacation rentals in Old Town Scottsdale, AZ … I include a Turn Back Time Capsule sample with a catalogue in the bathrooms for the rental guests to enjoy. This simple gesture is helping me to bring on new Clients.
“I am also part of a hiking club and I take Bikram yoga classes, so I share Apriori with those I connect with while I am having fun working out. I have to say, the Yoga gals LOVE, LOVE, LOVE Apriori Beauty and I’am beginning to see success with gaining Clients and Consultants from the yoga studio. One day, as I was checking in for my yoga class, the teacher was raving about the Time Capsule sample I had shared with her. It was perfect timing as the students waiting to take the class all heard her. Many of them asked me for samples. After hearing her rave, even the studio owner looked at me and said, ‘Deneen, my wife and I have to try this, please bring us a sample too!’ All I could think was, ‘Who could ask for better free advertising?’
“To stay connected to my team, I remind them about the weekly team calls with my upline, Cathi Almquist and Kim Kearns, and the monthly Connect Calls. I also meet my Consultants for one-on-one training/Q&A sessions. And, I am excited to share that this month I am starting my personal team call to inspire, goal set and strategize ways to connect with new Clients/Consultants, so we can all succeed in this business together.
“My newest Consultant, Ceci is in VA and we are in the process of planning her launch party. I’ve been ‘SKYPING’ with her to help her prepare for this presentation. You gotta love today’s technology, especially how it can be used to benefit your business.
“Lastly, my business reaps the most benefit when I do something every day to build it. Yet, if I get super busy on an investment property we are preparing or if I have a busy Client week as a realtor, instead of beating myself up for not attending to my Apriori business, I just re-focus, set a new goal to make a few calls and I keep myself inspired because I know I am working on ‘Going Platinum,’ one client at-a-time, one level in the business at-a-time.
“My motto is ‘Be more driven by what you want to create than by what you fear!’ This thought process has allowed me to continue to grow and move to new levels. I am thankful and blessed that I was introduced to Apriori Beauty by Diana Adamo and Kim Kearns. Thank you both for changing my direction and for giving me a new dream!”
