Psalms 23 Bracelet

The Psalms 23 bracelet is made with Swarosvski crystal stones that each represent a special word or phrase for Psalms 23.

The Lord is my Shepherd (white); I shall not want. He maketh me to lie down in green pastures (green): he leadeth me beside the still waters (blue). He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the pathos of righteousness (clear) for his name's sake. Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death (black), I will fear no evil: For thou art with me; they rod and they staff (brown) they comfort me. Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil (yellow); my cup (purple) runneth over. Surely goodness and mercy (pink) shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the Lord (gold) forever.

Poll: Games at Parties- Love 'em or Hate 'em?

I've been to many different home parties selling all types of products. Some played games and some didn't. I enjoy playing along... as long as there is a good prize at the end. But I know some of people don't like them. They just want to shop (and I can't say I necessarily blame them). I've been trying to decide how I want to run my parties, with or without games.

Please take a moment to answer my poll on the right. And if there are any games your particularly love, please email it to me at amy.lachance@yahoo.com.

Thanks.

Personalized Diaper Bag...very cute and stylish

As I sit and look at the catalog, I keep finding things I didn't notice the last time. Today I was looking at the Black Floral Diaper Bag. It, like many items in the Thirty One catalog, can be personalized. It's a good sized bag with 13 pockets and a 21" x22" changing pad.

This bag makes a perfect gift for a baby shower. The new mom will look very stylish while carrying this beautiful, yet functional bag.

(PS I've also learned that this bag can double as a laptop carrier. What a great idea!)

Thirty One Consultant Kit is only $99

I was so excited to see the that cost to sign up with Thirty One is only $99! That's a great deal when you see all that you get in the starter kit. There are 15 different products including 6 of which can be monogrammed. My favorite item is the Bucket Bag (shown on the right). What a perfect bag for taking to the beach this summer. (That bag alone would normally cost $36.) Of course there are also business and training materials too but how can you not get excited about the products!!!

My first Thirty One bag is on order

I'm so excited. My first item from Thirty One has been ordered. I think it will come in a couple weeks because I had it personalized. I ordered the Classy Zipper Tote in diagonal stripe. It's so cute. I had it monogrammed with an A in powder blue (similar to the picture on the right). It was only $40 plus shipping.

Digging Deeper into Thirty One

So I got some basic research done but I wanted to find out more. Who better to ask than the consultants themselves. Now of course I didn't expect any of them to say anything bad but I was hoping to get a feel for the company based on how they answered my questions.

Everyone I emailed with was very nice. I didn't feel like they were just trying to recruit me but were genuinely trying to be helpful.

I started with the basic question on "what do you like most about Thirty One"? Many answered "the products" (which I can easily see from the catalog) but also "the support". After working with 2 different direct sales companies, I've learned how important support from the main office can be. Already I have seen first hand the wonderful support from my soon-to-be teammates. They have been sending emails daily...which I love. I feel really connected with the company and I haven't even signed up yet. There is also a magazine, National Convention, regional meetings and a "Start Swell" programs which encourages new consultants to get started on the right foot (and are rewarded with terrific prizes).

I have seen there are lots of incentives offered for the customers, hostesses and consultants that changed frequently. The best consultant incentive that I have seen so far is a trip to Disney World. The best part is that all of it seems attainable!

Since it is a fairly new company, I was wondering how many consultants there were so far. The answers I have found were around 1500/2000. The best part is that there is only 1 in my state of New Hampshire. Lots of room to grow.

Well, so far I'm very impressed. I won't be able to sign up until after April 15. My husband is an accountant so I'm home with the kids most nights while he works late. So for now, I'm still looking into the company, meeting people and scheduling parties for when I'm ready. I even just ordered my first Thirty One bag. I can't wait for it to arrive!!!
