A Little Bit about Me and My Family

My Name is Marilyn and I am the mother of a wonderful 5 year old daughter and wife to an
exceptionally wonderful man. My story actually starts about two years ago. I
worked for a company for 8 years and one day realized that I was putting my heart and soul
into a business that neither appreciated my talents nor my hard work and commitment. It
was just a job..a paycheck..taking up a lot of my time and keeping me away from my family. So
I decided to start my own business from home. My husband loves it that I am home more and
my daughter loves that I am able to spend more time with her and I love that I have such a
flexible schedule.

I knew I wanted to do direct sales and network marketing since that was the career I had
chosen. I had a friend who had been a stay at home Mom and had been working with a great
company with a remarkable gourmet candle. I love candles. I love candles so much I had to go
a whole year once without buying one on a dare from my husband. When the chance came for
me to join such a wonderful company I jumped at it. My husband was on board, not only did he
like product but he thought maybe I wouldn't buy so many if I was selling them. Truthfully
its the Quality of the Candle that as curbed by buying habit. I was buying candles all the
time because I was getting the Inexpensive one's from the Department Stores but they
wouldn't last, they would get all black and squishy looking and didn't smell good after a few
burns. Once I burned one of our Gourmet Candles,,,I was hooked.

I knew after doing some research that this was right company for me. I love sharing the
products and the business opportunity. I love being a team leader and it makes me feel good
when I find someone who not only loves the candles for themselves but also when they are
excited about sharing with others and starting to make their dreams come true.

I would never have been able to be home with my daughter more and provide for my family
without my Team.

I just want everyone to know I love what I do and if you join my team I will do everything I
can to help you love it too.
