“With Apriori Beauty, I feel like I have candy in my hands that everyone wants. I am truly honored to be featured as the Great Start Consultant. When Elizabeth first asked to feature me, I became very nervous, trying to think of something cleaver to say. The truth is, there is nothing too cleaver about it. I tried the products; I fell in love, and wanted to share them with everyone. It’s that simple. I really had not planned on doing a business like this ever again. But once I put the products on my face and saw the results, I couldn’t stop talking about them. I was doing the business before even deciding to do so; one Turn Back Time Capsule, one person at a time.
“I learned about Apriori Beauty a couple of years back and was initially against trying the products. I was previously involved for several years with another company until my beliefs were shattered about the company, the industry, and the products, which eventually led to a disbelief in me. I knew I needed to get out of that business and find something else to do. For the past 5 years, I have been bouncing around in my professional life trying to find the perfect fit for me. I am a Certified Clinical Hypnotherapist and have a Master’s Degree in Clinical Psychology. So it wasn’t for lack of education, but rather, lack of drive in a troubling economy. I took a job in outside sales and practically ran myself into the ground, not to mention the cost of gas and the repairs to my car. Then I was offered a job in my local community, which I thought would be great. It only took a few days to figure out I am not meant to be put behind a computer in an office with a stressed out boss.
“Back in October, I was invited to lunch to meet with Gold Director, Susan Shaheen. I declined, but there was a small voice in the back of my mind that kept nagging me to go. After all, what could it hurt to go to a lunch meeting and just listen to what Susan had to say? I listened politely and went home and tried the products and within minutes my skin was glowing once again. I couldn’t wait to share what I had experienced and to get the opinion of my long time and dear friend, Diane Kwasman. As an esthetician, I trusted and wanted her approval. I sent her a Turn Back Time Capsule and the 20 EX Acid Peel. As we say, the rest is history. Diane is now building an incredible team in Riverside, CA. That same week, I met a friend for lunch, and before even a ‘Hello,’ she said ‘Whatever you’re doing to your face, I want it!’ This was after only 3 days of using the products. WOW! I was on to something!
“I realized I was having fun sharing the products and that I missed ‘networking’ and building a business. I couldn’t resist anymore. I have been told I am natural with people, that this is my gift. What better way to use my talents than with the incredible opportunity of Apriori Beauty. After all, isn’t building relationships what this business is all about?
“I make sure I am using ALL of the products. I want to be a product of the product I am passionately representing. I am in love with everything. People ask me my favorite and I can’t specify because I really do love it all. Thank you Apriori Beauty for providing the vehicle for me to dream again. Thank you to Elul and Susan Shaheen for your great leadership; and mostly huge thanks to those who trusted me and said ‘Yes’ to Apriori Beauty by either using the products or choosing to share them as well. We have an incredible opportunity in our hands. With a little patience and diligence, I know I have found something simple and fun that I can build on my own time, over time.
“My drive, my passion, my belief in the products, the company and the industry is thriving. Most importantly, my belief in myself is back. I am truly excited and feel blessed to be a part of this fabulous company – Apriori Beauty. ‘Beauty through pure product innovation.’ ‘Beauty through building relationships.’ ‘Beauty that comes from personal success.’ — Just one Turn Back Time Capsule, one person at a time.”
Great story. Its always nice to read or hear about people seeing success in this industry!
