Ladies, ladies, ladies! I cannot even believe it has taken me this long to write this here post.
I signed up! I did it! I took a giant leap of faith, a crazy plunge and joined an MLM company that I fell in love with – albeit, at a party! I’m an independent consultant for Touchstone Crystal by Swarovski!
I went to my very first Touchstone Crystal party back in August, as summer was winding down. I had some wine, I hung out with friends and I bought some pretty jewelry! I even made friends with the consultant – her name was Caryn.
I got my jewelry and I wore it all the days. I wore it to Cape Cod, Maine, everywhere. I loved my initial necklace, my April birthstone necklace (nope, not my birthstone) and my crystal aurore boreale ice bracelet. I got invited to ANOTHER party. My neighbor on the other side decided she’d have a party too. I’d go again and hang out with my new friend Caryn and buy some more jewelry.
This time I bought the Filigree Medallion for myself and the Rosy earrings and the Rosy necklace for Emily. Caryn was on to me. She thought I’d be good at this gig.
Well, crap. Here we are, six months later and she was right. I AM good at it!!!! I’ve been a consultant for 6 months and I hit every milestone along the way – we have something called a GLAM PLAN and it rewards you with product certificates and incentives in your first 3 months of business. If you know me, I’m the competitive type. I like to set goals and earn all the things. That’s just what I did. I got all the things and even signed on a friend to do it with me!
So here we are, mid March and I have signed on 4 girls! I can hardly believe it. I’m well on my way to becoming a group leader and making big things happen. Why? Because it’s so ridiculously fun and I just love meeting new people and sharing the sparkle, helping women feel good about themselves and building their confidence. This is something I never ever thought I would do. NEVER. EVER.
I would never have signed on if it weren’t for Caryn. She, too, is a mom and former teacher who also teaches figure skating lessons all while rocking her Touchstone Crystal business. In fact, she’s currently sitting on the beach in Punta Cana right now at an all expense paid trip because she sold some serious jewelry last fall! Caryn is even teaching Emily how to figure skate! We became FAST friends. That’s seriously how it worked – FRIENDSHIP.
So I guess the point of this whole story is to never say never and don’t be afraid to start something new, even when you’re 40 years old and BUSY. Everyone is busy, aren’t they? But I now have this new and exciting little business at my fingertips and I can do whatever I want with it. It’s all up to me. I can make it whatever I want it to be. I can earn that trip too. (ALASKAN CRUISE next fall, anyone?)
So that’s it. I host parties and sell jewelry on and off-line. I make new friends. I drink wine at work. As my upline often says, ‘THIS IS SO STUPID!” It really is stupid fun.
If you’d like hundreds of dollars in free jewelry, message me! Get some girls together for a fun night! I bring the bling! EASY!
If you want to chat about this ridiculously stupid side hustle, let me know. I’m serious. Alaskan Cruises and trips to the Caribbean are real. Take a leap of faith like I did and see where it takes you! It’s crazy what can happen when you dream big!
Touchstone Crystal by Swarovski ships directly to your door in just a few days from their headquarters in Cranston, RI. I’d love, love, love it if you check out my site. We have something for everyone and 50% of the catalog is at $50 or less.
An MLM. For real. What is this world coming to?
