Network Marketing Wannabe Here!!



'They' say that people buy direct sales products (anything your friends are selling on Facebook) from people they know and trust. 'They' also say that to create a sustainable direct sales career you need to push beyond the people who know you and trust you. You can't and shouldn't expect your friends and family to build your success. I agree!

Network marketing seems to be the new "thing to do." This generations Avon lady, except instead of going door to door you sit on your couch or in your car using your phone and Facebook to run your empire. 

I started out with one direct sales business and a few months later joined another. Not because I'm a greedy opportunist - I seriously worried that everyone would assume this, and yes, I know I shouldn't worry about what anyone thinks, but I'm human, it happens. The first two reasons, which are on equal levels, for why I signed up with these two businesses were because:
1. I LOVE the products
2. I LOVE a deal

When you sell, you get the biggest discount. It's a win win in my books.

From there this whole experience evolved. I started to really see the potential in each company. The opportunity it gave me to not only get a deal on premium quality products, but to make a little or a lot of extra cash for my family. The chance to reconnect with old friends and to make new ones. The chance to hustle, and doesn't everyone love a little hustle? I LOVE being a stay at home mom. I really do. I love my playground coworkers, I love being the taxi mom, the rink mom, the ball field mom and I'm so thankful that I can be home with my boys. Back in the day I worked hard, fought deadlines, was a frequent flyer and I loved it. I thrived in the hectic and chaotic times. My life now is a whole new level of chaos. I kind of missed the chaos of work. This network marketing side hustle gives me some of that fire back. Even if it's just a toe back in...for now...it's still in, and I love it.

It all just feels so salesy....doesn't it??? That's not my jam and I know it's not yours either. So I want to change it up a bit.

Here's the deal. If I'm ever going to grow and sustain my direct sales career through network marketing then YOU - The people who are currently not my friends or family need to get to know me. So that's why I revived this blog. This is my way of showing you who I am. It's terrifying by the way. And maybe nobody will ever read it. Side note: Do people still blog, or has blogging become something like a VHS - obsolete? Until I figure out something else, we'll stick with this.

Moving forward I'll (CharleeWith2E's) Facebook post, instagram and blog about me, the stuff I love, probably some mom stuff, life stuff and of course the products I want you all to use :) So, can we be friends?

Hallelujah Indeed

I have been so out of touch lately. I apologize. I miss my blogging. As you know, one of my favorite things to do is think. Think, think, think. So, while I have been so busy, I have been stockpiling blog posts. I have so many movie reviews to share with you and new artist to pimp out. I’m excited. In the midst of the chaos which sometimes is known as ‘my life’, I take refuge in movies and music. Music helps me think and movies help me forget. I become equally lost in both worlds, a place where the lines of reality and reverie are lost. But for today, we’re starting with this. Thank God, Heaven’s Above, Hallelujah Indeed. Did you watch the 2010 Winter Olympics Opening Ceremonies on Friday? Here are my top three moments. K.D. Lang, K.D. Lang and K.D. Lang. When the camera focused in on the barefoot songstress dressed in white cocooned by the orange glow of simulated candles (plastic flashlights made to look like candles) held by the audience and the first note broke through the silence,

One Year No Radio

Image
This week I’m celebrating my one year anniversary living without music radio. That’s right…I said celebrating. Don’t get me wrong, I still listen to music, and plenty of it…but since I removed the radio from my daily routine I am no longer bombarded with contests, terribly annoying advertisements, songs on far too high of a rotation or over the top excessive radio personalities. I do listen to the news radio station but only to receive traffic updates and road reports. Other than that…my life has been freed from it. I spend a lot of time in my car. A LOT. This is because I live in the burbs and have no choice but to commute. Honestly, I don’t mind the commute. It’s my ‘me’ time in the day. It’s the time when I do my best thinking. Good thinking requires music. Because music has the ability to make you think deeper. I love deep thinking. It’s cathartic. There was a time when the radio was very much needed. When the internet didn't exist. When the only way you could hear a new song w

Too Desperate?

Image
I have been stewing over this for a few days now…not judging…just making observations and trying to figure it all out and I’ve come to this conclusion. Ashley Greene hooks up with a lot of people and she doesn’t seem to care. In fact, I think she wants the world to see. She wants the reassurance that she’s hot and that other hot people want to be with her. If you don’t know who I’m talking about then next time you are walking by a magazine stand take a look at this month’s Maxim cover…she’s on the front…and posing hard. She’s hungry and she wants the fame bad. But it’s coming off as desperate in all areas. We already have a Megan Fox in this world and she’s doing great on her own. Back in April, Ashley was photographed with Ian Somerhalder..don’t know who he is? He played Boon on Lost and he now plays Damon on the Vampire Diaries. http://justjared.buzznet.com/2009/04/15/ashley-greene-ian-somerhalder-couple/ What’s the connection here? Hmmm, let’s see. We both play vampires so let’s ho
