Lisa Adam from Webster, NY | “To put it simply, the results exceeded my expectations. I was squeezing out every lost drop I could get from the Celloxylin 5-step strip. Immediately, I was noticing a difference and so were others! My husband commented on how my skin was glowing.” Click here to read Lisa’s extended profile
Catherine Babusiak from St. John, IN | “The products I had been using were no longer working for me so I went online to find natural, anti-aging products and saw Apriori Beauty. When I went on the website and saw Kim Kearns and Cathi Almquist, I knew I had to find out more. I used the products for a week and I was hooked. When I saw the compensation plan, I knew that I could be sitting on a gold mine if I was willing to work, and I am willing to work. Funny thing is, it doesn’t seem like work. I am having a great time helping women look and feel beautiful — and making money doing it!” Click here to read Catherine’s extended profile
Kelli Benger from Brewster, MA | “I found Apriori Beauty when the company was in its infancy, while looking for the best antioxidant supplement I could find. Actually, my brother found the company first, and knew he had to share it with his little sister. I am forever grateful for his never-ending desire to watch over me! To individuals who desire to build a business with this wonderful company, I would like to pass on the best piece of advice I received when I became an Apriori Beauty Independent Consultant ? Listen! My interpretation of this is: stop talking about the products and the company and the opportunity and listen to what your potential client/consultant wants to share with you, not what you want to share with them! Another suggestion I strongly urge other Consultants to do is to find a support network that you can rely on. There is no reason to feel like you are alone, just because you are in business for yourself. This is an exciting opportunity and adventure. And, it is so much better if you can ‘share’ your experiences along the way!” Click here to read Kelli’s extended profile
Nathaly Diaz from Manorville, NY | Three words that best describe Nathaly are shy, responsible and organized. “I am extremely shy when it comes to meeting new people or talking in front of a crowd,” says Nathaly. “I am responsible, even though sometimes I wait until the last minute to do everything, yet I still get it all done! And, I am a very organized when it comes to my business and work. Three things that people may not know about me include: I am a receptionist at a doctor’s office; I have a 1-year-old son named Felix, two Chihuahuas named Twinky and Muffin; a German Shepard named Mia; and a loving boyfriend named Cesar who supports me in every way. To be honest, I had never heard of Apriori Beauty. I couldn’t even pronounce it! My good friend, Lisa Minogue told me all about it and I was in. I signed up and bought my products the same day. As soon as I received them, on my face they went and I was in love. I knew I could do this from the comfort of my own home and get paid for my efforts. I believe everything happens for a reason!” Click here to read Nathaly’s extended profile
Carolyn Glade from Tucson, AZ | Having been raised around and worked in their family business for many years, Carolyn and her sister, Sarah Glade Cummings, wanted to have a business together in spite of the 1,500 miles between them. When Sarah found Apriori Beauty online, the Glade sisters immediately connected with the entrepreneurial spirit of the company founders. They knew they had discovered their business. “The fun we are having is contagious, even our mother, Susan Evans, has joined us on this Apriori Beauty adventure. She loves the products and is our #1 supporter! Participating in Apriori Beauty’s first Be The Difference Panel was an incredible learning opportunity. The experience and advice of successful industry veterans helped her focus on building a business beyond retailing. “The transition from working in a traditional business environment to network marketing took some time to figure out. I saw what Apriori Beauty was building and knew it held great potential. I enjoyed retailing the products, but struggled with the opportunity. Being able to communicate that to others took time and practice.” Click here to read Carolyn’s extended profile
Nancy Harris, Founder, from San Clemente, CA | “We’ve known the three Founders of the company for many years and were confident they could build a strong company. Their product plans sounded exciting, as well as their plans for the Foundation Apriority that will support women’s initiatives. My favorite is the Enzyme Activated Micro Scrub and the Hydro-Burst Moisture Intense Lotion. Together, they’ve worked wonders on my crepey skin, especially on my arms. I’ve really noticed a difference … the skin on my arms is firmer and doesn’t hang like it used to. Dan’s favorite product is Lifeoxylin. He’s not keen on eating fruits and vegetables, so he’s happy to know his one serving per day counts for 6 servings of fruits and vegetables!” Click here to read Nancy’s extended profile
Tempe Harty from Overland Park, KS | Tempe has a commercial art degree, with a focus on advertising. She’s been involved in property management for over 25 years. “Property management has given me the experience to deal with people, sales, advertising, budgets, training, construction, scheduling, and mentoring, to name a few. I was also a manager with another network marketing company, selling anti-aging skin care for 6 years before joining Apriori Beauty. When I heard about Apriori Beauty, I wanted to hear more because I was not happy with the company I was with at the time. I loved hearing the vision for the company and knew it was what I had been looking for!” Click here to read Tempe’s extended profile
Jamie Hilton from Boise, ID | “Does anyone else out there have a dinosaur cell phone? You know the one that you have to push the ’7′ four times to text an ‘S’? Do you remember seeing an iPhone or other smart phone for the first time? I do! Could it really be possible to surf the internet from your phone … to send emails … to type on this magical phone? Well, I never would have believed it had I not seen it for myself – if I had not actually had it in my hands and explored all of the new options! Well, dear friends, like the cell phone, there are many who are still in the dark about skincare. They may be content with what they are using simply because they haven’t found out about the iPhone of skincare and business … Apriori Beauty! I have tried other hypothetical ‘phones’ out there. As I was striving for success, I found that many were too complex, hyped, or burdensome on my life as a busy wife and mother. I felt like my life revolved around ‘it,’ pushing me to the Nth degree for fruits that would ‘hopefully’ appear years down the road. To be honest, I was resistant, thinking ‘My cell phone’ works great, this antennae and brick in my pocket suits me JUST fine. It wasn’t until she lovingly allowed me to ‘put my hands’ on the products that I knew I couldn’t go back.” Click here to read Jamie’s extended profile
Libby Jason from Mission Viejo, CA | “I have always loved the network marketing industry, because it’s a win-win for everyone,” said Libby. “Last year I completed chemotherapy and found my skin had taken a toll. I loved how hydrated my skin became after using the Apriori Beauty products. I loved my previous company, yet the simplicity of Apriori Beauty was SO inviting. I wasn’t looking for a new business; it found me! I love being a part of Apriori Beauty because I can enjoy the products with no strings attached. Some people just want to be Clients and that’s okay by me! On the business side, I can have fun earning a living without being tied to a job. Apriori Beauty allows me to meet new people and give them a key to a better, healthier, more prosperous lifestyle — whatever that may be for them. This business also allows me to have time to do the things I love to do, as opposed to administrative or tedious tasks.” Click here to read Libby’s extended profile
Julie Jensen from Simpsonville, SC | A Registered Nurse for twenty-one years, Julie has been an Owner/Trainer of a health consulting business for nineteen years. She provides health, safety and growth development classes; CPR and First Aid to child care providers and teachers. She discovered network marketing eight years ago and worked her way up to Manager with another skincare company. This experience lead her to Apriori Beauty. Words that describe me include: courageous, compassionate, decisive, sense of humor with the ability to laugh at myself and my mistakes, and I’m driven. Three things people may not know about me include: I’d rather flip hamburgers at McDonalds than go back into the world of nursing at the hospital; I tithe 10% of my gross income to my church (some people say they can’t afford to tithe, I say you can’t afford not to); and I had the best grades in nursing school in Psychiatry (which tells you volumes about my personality, doesn’t it).” Click here to read Julie’s extended profile
Janie Kashy from Miami, FL | “It wasn’t until a few years after my departure from my previous company that I began asking around on Facebook what the story was with my former company, when my Silver Director Lisa Minogue answered questions no one else seemed to know or what to say. We spoke a few times and she mentioned Apriori Beauty. At first I thought to myself “NO WAY, NO MORE NETWORK MARKETING FOR ME!” Not knowing Lisa as I do now, she continued to message me and give answers to questions I didn’t even ask. I never even asked for a Turn Back Time Capsule! My gut feeling was to sign on, buy the All-in-One kit, and rebuild my business…just not right away. I knew I would love this skin care and that is exactly what happened. The same month I signed on, my youngest daughter became engaged. I was busy planning a wedding and didn’t have time for anything else, or at least so I thought! I always carried a TBTC and catalog in my bag and I was USEing LOVEing, and SHAREing without thinking about it. I had clients signing up and even a few consultants. No one was telling me they didn’t love the products. When the Nothing to Hide Line came out at MLB, I was ecstatic! Finally a foundation that made me look and feel fabulous. My journey started slowly but once the wedding was behind, and my house an empty nest, I was ready. One year from my sign-up month I decided to go Manager and I did.” Click here for Janie’s extended profile
Carissa Lepisto Pouliot from New Hope, MN | “One of the biggest reasons I love being my own boss is it allows me the flexibly and financial freedom to pursue my passions. I am an Architectural Drafter, back in school as a non-traditional student following my dreams to become an Interior Designer. You do not have to give up what you love to go to the top of this business. You may find your personal passions drive you to succeed in Network Marketing, so that you can live your best life and have it all. I look forward to graduation day, when my Apriori Beauty paycheck will supersede any full-time Designer’s salary; then I can work for the love of it, because my financial picture will already be secured thanks to my business. It feels wonderful when I am able to help others look and feel great, but more importantly, it is even greater when I am able to help someone build a business that financially impacts their life. With our country experiencing economic hardships and jobs being hard to come by, anyone can make the decision today to build a business with Apriori Beauty and within days, start to see income that can pay a grocery bill or a car payment. It allows someone like me, a full-time student, mother and wife, to contribute to my family’s financial needs, and that feels great!” Click here to read Carissa’s extended profile
Anita Lewis from Elmira, NY | “My determination and excitement to build my Apriori business is a goal that I remind myself daily, one day and one person at a time. As the popular statement says, “Each one Teach one”. While working with my team of new consultants, my focus is on supporting them and raising awareness of their Apriori business. I look forward to expanding my business and achieving more success with Apriori Beauty. I’m thankful that an opportunity like this exists. With a team that is constantly supporting me and products that produce remarkable results, Apriori is the business for me. If my determination and perseverance have proven anything, it’s that I don’t believe in giving up and know that there is always something more I can achieve.” Click here to read Anita’s extended profile
Kevin W. Lynch, DC from Salem, NH | “Apriori has helped expand our business and enable our clients/patients to continue their care at home. The biggest seller is the Derma Firm Illuminator. We recommend our patients use it in-between treatments. Another popular item is the LifeoxyLean, which has greatly helped our patients lose weight. My advice for retailers is to make sure you keep a lot of samples out for your clients to try, because the products speak for themselves. Another tip is to take advantage of Apriori’s specials. Whenever Apriori is running a discount on a popular item of ours, we purchase large quantities and stock up to save on overall costs.” Click here to read Kevin’s extended profile
Carleen McIlveen from Cape Coral, FL | As a professional aesthetician, “I help brides achieve the look of their dreams on their wedding day and work with everyone to enhance their natural beauty with high-quality, safe and effective products. I love seeing real results for my clients and their happiness with the outcome. The quality of Apriori Beauty’s products is priceless and has played an integral part in my other businesses.” Click here to read Carleen’s extended profile
Dena Melnick from North Easton, MA | “I saw a new landing page for Apriori Beauty. There was not much more than that, and I tucked it away in the back of my mind. Then, one day, I saw online that Elizabeth and Susan were all coming to Boston for an Apriori Beauty Opportunity Event. I immediately called my husband, and said to him, “if there are less than 20 Consultants in that room, I am doing this!” I had not even tried the products yet, but just had an instinct that this was going to be great! I was standing in the ladies room in the hotel, and for some reason, was so nervous to go into that room. I guess I was just wondering if I really had it in me to build another business all over again. I realized I could do it, too. I am forever grateful. My skin has truly never, ever looked better since I began using Apriori Beauty’s products about one year ago. What I have found is the products are selling themselves. Apriori Beauty is a company built on integrity and a solid compensation plan. Every Consultant who shares this opportunity can look a woman directly in her eyes, and tell her that she CAN earn an income as a Consultant, simply sharing the products and earning a retail income. If you want to do more, and build a team, then you can earn additional income with the power bonuses, and the Manager and Director bonuses. I LOVE that Apriori Beauty is not a title driven company, and really values and lifts up the Consultants at all levels. The environment is one where we are all succeeding together.” Click here to read Dena’s extended profile
Angela Neifert-Kraiser from Broomfield, CO | “I meet clients everywhere I go. As a wife, with a combined family of 7 kids and 18 grandkids, and a full-time employee at my ‘day job’, I fit in my Apriori business every chance I get. Whether I’m in the checkout line at a store or running errands, I keep my eyes and ears open for business prospects. I like to joke to others that Apriori is my own personal retirement program and protection plan against the economy, but it’s true. Building my own business has allowed me the freedom and ability to plan for the future. Instead of being afraid of what’s to come, I’m planning on where I want to vacation next!” Click here to read Angela’s extended profile
Stacey Oberzan from Olathe, KS | “Oh, where do I start? Thank you to my twin sister, Susan Klaus, for having the insight to be the first one to say YES to this opportunity and to Cari Burmaster for simply asking both of us to join this company! It makes me smile to think that I initially said ‘No Thank You’ to Cari when she asked! However, as I said ‘No’ to this opportunity, my sister said ‘Yes’ right away! I couldn’t believe it! What? She was heading ‘UP’ without me? I saw her engaging with other like-minded women, selling product and having fun! Then, when my sister received that beautiful, shiny debit card with her name on it in the mail, I was SO excited for her! I had to have one too! I could hardly believe you got paid every Friday in this company on that little blue card, it made me realize that one of Apriori Beauty’s priorities was to acknowledge all Consultants for their work immediately. I thought to myself, ‘if I could get paid every Friday for the work I did this week, I would not only be honored, but excited to invest time with this business!’ Being a hair stylist for the last 19 years, and now the owner of a busy growing studio, I know the power of trading time for money. If my hands aren’t moving while cutting hair, I’m not making money and that was just one of my motivating factors to join this amazing company. Click here to read Stacey’s extended profile
Pamela Poliakoff from Rancho Cucamonga, CA | “I saw the opportunity and knew that this was the ‘one’ that will change my life and empower others. Favorite product? I love every product we have! The Eye + Lip Age Eraser is my favorite. The first time I tried it, I could feel it working. I was a lip balm junkie. Since using this product for over a month now, I don’t have chapped lips and the small lines around my mouth and eyes are disappearing!” Click here to read Pamela’s extended profile
Christine Scully-Palmer from Natick, MA | “I was intrigued by the amazing opportunity to become an Apriori Beauty Consultant. With both the products and company being so new, the potential is limitless. I just couldn’t pass it up when asked! The upfront costs are minimal, with really nothing to lose to give it a try. To other consultants hoping to promote to manager, my advise would be to share your excitement for not only the products, but the amazing opportunity. I do a little bit each day. Even if it’s as simple as a phone call, email or giving someone a time capsule. I also have found having a face to face meeting with potential consultants is key. I show them my website and go through the back office so they can see my numbers and what I’ve been able to accomplish with no sales experience.” Click here to read Christine’s extended profile
Cheri Smillie, Founder, from Lake Forest, CA | “I joined Apriori Beauty because of the reputation and character of the founders. I knew whatever they did would be outstanding! And, I was right. The products are the best I have ever used! Favorite product? I tried to answer this question honestly when it was asked in the Consultant Survey a few weeks ago. It is as difficult to answer now as it was then, since I really love all of the products and I am using them all. I have seen amazing results from each of the products and if one were missing, I would know that I was not getting all the benefits of Apriori Beauty and my skin would show it! I think the one thing that has been the easiest to share with others, is the honestly and integrity of Apriori Beauty. If you love the products and you see your own skin and health changing, just be honest and share with others just what the products have done for you and what they can do for everyone. People don’t like to be promised something that is not real. There are so many products on the market that do not deliver what they promise, Apriori Beauty does!” Click here to read Cheri’s extended profile
Kathy Stephan from Mission Viejo, CA | “I focus on the Derma Firm Illuminator and Precision Skin Rejuvenator; I make a large sale the first time and then repeated sales with the PSR and with our skin care line. I love the DFI and truly believe that every woman and most men need to have this incredible device in their home. I always carry my demo in my purse and have a new DFI set on hand in my Apriori bag to sell to an interested buyer. I have learned that if I tell someone that they really need this device, they want it immediately! So far it has help me sell several for Christmas gifts. In addition, I include a sample of our skin care line and explain how the system all works together to give them the radiant, healthy skin we all want. Then, I follow up with an email of our PDF showing how to use the DFI. They love that! While I’m sitting in doctors’ office waiting for my appointment, I will pull out my DFI and start using it on my hands and neck. People are just naturally curious and ask what I am doing. I take my husband to his French Club at a local senior center. While I sit in the lobby, waiting for him, I pull out my DFI and a brochure and just start sharing. I always keep a sample of our micro scrub and a 30 day size of our lip and eye crème in my purse. People will see me washing my hands with the scrub and ask about it. Take advantage of your surroundings, opportunity awaits everywhere. I met one of my new clients and a new Consultant while shopping at Big Lots.” Click here to read Kathy’s extended profile
Jami Taguchi from Calabasas, CA | “One great aspect about being with Apriori, is the people I’ve met. It encourages me to connect with others I wouldn’t normally come across. And, my Apriori family – the women and the comradery here is priceless. Apriori is full of strong and supportive women. Especially Elizabeth and Susan, who inspire me. They’ve walked through fire with such grace and integrity and didn’t give up – I appreciate that about them. If it’s one thing you need to be successful in this business, it’s perseverance. Don’t give up and keep moving forward. Pick up that phone, make that connection and share what you have to offer.” Click here to read Jami’s extended profile
Tanya Walter from Haigler, NE | “Three words that best describe me would be Funny, Crazy, and Optimistic … I was a Cosmetologist for 14 years. I saw how much money I was making the Franchise and decided that if I was going to be putting in that many hours a day, that I should be bringing home more money. It was then that I was approached by a network marketing company and decided to become a consultant to spend more time building something that would put more money in my pocket. Around the same time, I was asked to be the Manager of the salon and regrettably, I said Yes. Big mistake! That meant I would be getting a little more pay for a lot more time and responsibility. Four years later, after getting burned out, I let my Cosmetology license go and began working as a Pipeline Construction Inspector, and then a Warehouse Manager, a Cattle Processor at a feed yard, and a Feed Truck Driver at a local feed yard. WOW! Jack-of-all-trades and master of none, huh! It was then that I decided that I needed a girl job again. Low and behold, up came my dear friend, Shelly Hazle, with a Turn Back Time Capsule. She showed me the opportunity that came with it and now here I am, President of my own company as an independent Consultant with Apriori Beauty! Thank you Shelly!” Click here to view Tonya’s extended profile
Amy West from Milton, DE | “Having been a part of seeing other direct marketing companies, I already knew what I didn’t want. When I was introduced to Apriori Beauty, the thing that caught my attention was the retailing aspect. I didn’t have to build a team if I didn’t wish to do so and yet still make a wonderful living. But, after using and loving the products, it’s infectious and easy to share with others. I enjoy seeing how our products get people excited about health and skin care. I’ve seen how Apriori has transformed others, both internally and externally.” Click here to read Amy’s extended profile
Paula Yude
levit from McHenry, MD | “I honestly don’t consider what I do selling, nor relate Apriori Beauty to what I think of as network marketing. One thing I do know about myself is that it would be very difficult for me to share anything I didn’t love. I love sharing these products with my family and friends; my happiest moments are when they get excited about how they look and feel! I have been known to go a little overboard with the enthusiasm though. I’ve learned so much about myself in this process of sharing Apriori. As a Marketing Consultant, I help my clients create their brand personality, strategies and initiatives are developed based on the brand message. Without consciously doing it, I’ve created my own brand personality! I’ve had to overcome some of my own obstacles and step out of my comfort zone. “ Click here to read Paula’s extended profile
