<br> Arbonne features pure, safe and beneficial skin care, nutrition, weight loss, color and aromatherapy products for the entire family which are formulated in Switzerland by leading bio-chemist, biologists and herbalists and made in the U.S.A. <br><br> Arbonne's unique products, are herbally and botanically based, pH correct, hypoallergenic, dermatologist tested, NEVER tested on animals and DO NOT CONTAIN mineral oil, solvent alcohol, acetone, lanolin, collagen, dyes, chemical fragrances, or animal products or animal by-products. <br><br>MINERAL OIL: An oil product derived from petroleum (crude oil) that forms a film on the skin, blocking pores and interfering with the normal skin respiration. Mineral oil not only dries your skin, it also leeches out free radical fighters, Vitamins A, C and E from your skin.<br><br>SOLVENT ALCOHOL: A colorless liquid in the form of propyl, isopropyl or SD40 alcohol that strips the skin of its protective mantle, drying the skin. Solvent alcohol is frequently found in astringents and toners.<br><br>LANOLIN: The oily excretion from sheep used as a common lubricating ingredient in skin care formulas. Lanolin is extracted from wool and can be the cause of allergic reactions in people with sensitive skin.<br><br>COLLAGEN: An animal by-product that clogs the pores because the molecular structure is too large to penetrate the skin. Collagen is sometimes added to cosmetics as a moisturizing agent.<br><br>DYES AND PERFUMES: Artificial ingredients found in most cosmetics. Animal testing, which may result in severe pain and traumatic death to the animal, has been used to determine "safe" toxicity levels. Dyes and chemical fragrances can be the cause of allergic reactions in sensative people.<br><br>ANIMAL PRODUCTS AND BY-PRODUCTS: If a company does not say that it does not use animal products, chances are, it does. <br><br> Arbonne skin care products exclude the above listed ingredients and combine the best of science and nature known to provide targeted benefits to the skin. <br><br> Arbonne products are shipped directly from Arbonne to your home in order to provide you with pure, safe and beneficial products that have NOT been stored in a distributor's warehouse or sitting on a department store shelf. Arbonne is confident that you will love the products yet if for any reason a product does not work for you then you may return it within 45 days from the date of purchase for your money back. <br> <br> You can experience the Arbonne Difference at the same 35% discount the consultants use as wholesale buyers when you sign up as a consultant/wholesale buyer for $29 and without the obligation to sell or do a thing...you will just receive an information packet, including a catalog, and your own personal id account number to use in order to purchase products for yourself, your family or your friends at the wholesale buyer discount. <br><br>When you sign up to receive the wholesale buyer discount and select at least $100 of products ($65 after the discount is applied), you are eligible to choose any product in the catalog as a Free gift!

The RSVP 50% discount is only available in the month you sign up and the following month and if you want to split it with a friend or two you may!I recommend the RSVP option for anyone that wants to replace products in the home that contain mineral oil and animal products or by-products. <br><br>If you would like to become a consultant in order to take advantage of the discounts available to you just follow the START NOW icon to the right to get the consultant 35% discount or consultant start month 50% discount!<br> <br>Just a thought...think about the skin care, cosmetics and other products that you have been using, compare the ingredients with Arbonne's botanically and herbally based ingredients, determine what you do and do not want on your skin and decide what kind of results you do want from a product.

For 12 years, I practiced law as a trial litigator. In June 2005,I decided to leave my legal career and build a business that, to my surprise, withstood an intense cross examination on my part.<br><br>I promoted to a Regional Vice President with Arbonne in July 2006 and teach and train others who want to work part time without doing parties and earn a significant income in order to retire from the corporate arena, become debt free, get paid what they determine they are worth, stay at home with their children, create an educational fund for their children or grandchildren or create financial freedom...just a few of my teammates' goals and dreams!<br><br>It all started in the Spring of 2004 when my childhood friend introduced me to the Arbonne anti-aging products and her "business". I purchased a few products to be supportive and then placed both the products and the business in a drawer, unopened. In hindsight, a mistake on my part.<br><br>In December of 2004, I actually tried the products and was amazed that I coyuld actually feel and see a difference within 24 hours. I was so impressed that I began to research, unbelievably for me, a little bit about the part time business behind them. <br><br>* THE COMPANY<br>-Arbonne is a 27 year old Swiss Network Marketing Corporation, established in 1980, that is privately owned by Harvest Partners. Arbonne experienced 111% growth in 2003, 98% in 2004, 164% in 2005 and in 2006 and is noted as the fastest growing company that is a distinguished member of the Direct Selling Association.<br><br>-“NETWORK MARKETING” is a method of distribution…a form of marketing ... that channels goods or services from the manufacturer to the consumer through a network of people.<br><br>-Arbonne relies on word of mouth network marketing or advertising of its products… as a result, the added cost of middlemen and advertising is eliminated and, in turn, Arbonne is able to offer a very competitive and quite incredible compensation plan to its consultants and further reinvest in cutting edge product research and development. If you have ever recommended a movie or restaurant then you have already marketed or advertised a product but chances are the theater or restaurant did not pay you for it.<br><br>-Arbonne markets products that are formulated in Switzerland at the Arbonne Institute of Research and Development under the direction of Pierre Bottiglieri, who is arguably the leading cosmetic chemist in the world. Arbonne products are manufactured in the USA. <br><br>-Arbonne owns all of its formulations including revolutionary NutriminC Anti-Aging Lines which are pending patents in Switzerland and the United States.<br><br>-Arbonne ships its products from the manufacturer directly to the consumer so the products do not sit in a in a box, in a warehouse or eventually on a shelf for an extended period of time. <br><br>-An Arbonne Independent Consultant is anyone that signs up for an ccount in order to receieve 35% up to 80% off all Arbonne products and an Independent Consultant who decide to build a part time business with Arbonne may achieve the following levels of management: <br><br>1)District Manager (first level of management) may be accomplished in one month or two, by you alone or with others that may sponsor, and is associated with an average of $291.67 US a Month. <br><br>2)Area Manager (second level) is associated with an average of $1551.35 US a month and the ability to will your business to a beneficiary. In the event<br>something happens, Arbonne continues to compensate a beneficiary as the <br>business continues to remain active and productive. <br><br>3) Regional Vice President (third level) is associated with an average $6,773 US a Month (approximately $80,000 US a year) and earning the Mercedes car<br>bonus program.<br><br>4) National Vice President (fourth level) is associated with average $31,348.09 US a Month (approximately $372,000 US per year). Many consultants are reachingare getting to Region in 8-18 months and Nation in 12 to 24 months...not bad for 10 to 12 hours a week. <br><br>How is that possible?? There are various avenues of income with Arbonne including<br><br>1)Retail Profits of 35%<br>2)Wholesale Override Commissions<br>3)Manager Bonuses <br>4)Mercedes Cash Bonus<br><br>Arbonne also offers… <br><br>1)Life Insurance opportunity<br>2)Travel opportunities for you, your spouse and/or family members<br>3)Campaigns including jewelry and more <br>4)Beneficiary opportunity-Arbonne will compensate a named beneficiary based on the success of your business <br><br> So you may be thinking about considering this company but wondering which factors you should further consider before you decide. I will give 4 of them. <br><br>* KEY FACTORS<br><br>1)Target Market with Demand<br>2)Consumable Product Lines<br>3)Timing and Trends in Society<br>4)Time Leverage Ability <br><br> **TARGET MARKET WITH DEMAND = SALES<br><br>Arbonne has Products that Target All Ages but the “BABY BOOMERS” are the largest target market that is expanding with an expanding demand for Arbonne’s health and wellness products. Generation X is another expanding target market as it is the most <br>Entrepreneurial generation that this country has ever known, wants to earn a significant income have more time to enjoy family, friends and life.<br><br>-“Baby Boomers” <br> Born between 1946 –1964<br> Over 1 billion of them world wide<br> Over 32 million over age 50 in the US<br> Have driven our economic trends since born<br> 50’s Gerber sold 1.8 billion jars of baby food<br> 60’s Buster Brown Shoes, Hasbro and Matel growth explosions <br> 70’s Fast foods became billion dollar companies<br> 80’s Real estate growth explosion<br> 90’s PCs and internet explosion<br> <br> - Baby Boomers continue to drive our economic trends because they <br> represent1/3 of the population and control 2/3 of the spending. <br><br> -Paul Zane Pilzer, the man who predicted the “dot com” explosion and <br> who also served as a financial/economic advisor to 2 US Presidents, <br> also predicted that the next industry to push through and drive the <br> economy is “health and wellness” … according to the current buying <br> patterns of the baby boomers since 2000 he is right on the money.<br><br>The Second Factor to consider before you decide to join a company is…<br><br> **A CONSUMABLE PRODUCT LINE <br> “It is crucial to select a company with a consumable product line that is used daily” Dr. Charles King…graduate of Harvard and professor at the University of Chicago.<br><br> -WHY? A consumable product line that is used daily means repeated and ongoing sales on which you are compensated. <br><br>-Arbonne offers 6 product lines, most used daily, that are perfectly suited to the Baby Boomer and Generation X demands as they value health and wellness products for the entire family that are pure, safe and beneficial: Skin Care, Weight Loss, Nutrition, Personal Care, Color/Cosmetics, Aromatherapy/Spa <br> <br>-These combined markets make up over $140 billion in sales world-wide but these combined markets are predicted to grow to $3 trillion annually by 2014. - <br><br>-“Pure, Safe and Beneficial” <br> Pure- the products combine the best of science and nature<br> Safe- extensively consumer (not animal) tested to ensure consumer safety <br> Beneficial- they work to provide targeted benefits to the skin <br><br>-How else are they Pure, Safe and Beneficial? <br> Botanically Based<br> pH correct<br> Hypoallergenic<br> Dermatologists Tested <br> Never Tested on Animals<br> Formulated Without Animal Products or By-Products (certified vegan), <br> Chemical Dyes or Fragrances or Mineral Oil<br><br><br>The Third Factor to consider before you decide to join a company which is …<br><br>** TIMING AND TRENDS IN OUR SOCIETY <br><br> a)People are losing jobs, want job security, to live debt free or maintain their lifestyle or own their home. <br><br> Only 4% of Americans make over $100,000 year (96% make less).<br> Only 33% of Americans do something else for extra money to <br> supplement income.<br><br> b)People need more money for retirement and financial security.<br><br> Only 2% of all retired Americans are financially free…16% movie stars, <br> rock stars, pro athletes and high level business executives and 74% <br> own their own business and create their own wealth<br><br> c)People want to break free from the corporate rat race and are starting up a home based business to have more family time and to get the associated tax deductions.<br> <br> d) Lastly, more people are concerned about their health and wellness<br><br>The last Factor to consider before you decide to join a company is … <br><br>** TIME LEVERAGE ABILITY <br> <br>“Time Leverage Ability” - the ability to leverage your time, your efforts and the money you earn with the efforts of others.<br><br>If you have ever been paid for working hourly or been salaried you know that the problem for most people who trade time for money, including doctors, lawyers, bankers…most people, is that if you do not work for any reason you usually do not get paid.<br> <br>With time leverage ability, you are able to promote on and get paid on the success volume that you create AND that others associated with your business create. While you may promote and earn income based on the efforts of many as opposed to your efforts alone, Arbonne compensation is based on product sales and distribution such that any individual who decides to build a business with you may build a bigger or higher income producing business, earn more income and/or even promote to a higher level of management than you do. Arbonne provides a level playing field for everyone involved in the business at any point in time (quite contrary to those businesses that base compensation on others investing in the business and allow only those at the top to earn any significant income which I deem illegal pyramids). <br> <br>How do you leverage time? If you work 10 hours a week and you have 4 friends or customers that decide to build a business and do the same, you will get paid on the success of a 50 hour week. The key to building quickly is to find those 4 key people who want and who you want to do the business with you – if you help them succeed then you will succeed and 4 strong business builders, 4 legs, is desired to keep your business balanced all the way to the top. <br><br>I recommend starting by making a list of 50 - 100 people that you know. Next, narrow it down to the top 20 goal oriented and business minded people that you would want to work with. Then choose your top 4 and introduce the product and business to them. This business is all about teaching others how to promote in order to earn more income and how to duplicate the system in place. A business builder may promote very quickly with 4 strong legs…<br><br>2x2 = 4 x 2 = 8 x 2 = 16 <br>3x3 = 9 x 3 = 27 x 3 = 81<br>4x4 = 16 x 4= 64 x 4 = 256<br>5x5 = 25 x 5 = 125 x 5 = 625<br><br>The numbers represent the duplication of business builders who are using the products. If each has family and friends using the products as well, say 10 each, then with 4 there are an additional 40, 160, 640 or 2560 people buying and using consumable products. <br><br>By leveraging time with others, a business builder is compensated on many levels (hence the term multi level marketing and compensation business) for the volume of ALL of the sales even though he/she only found 4 people.<br><br>Everyone may receive individual and additional percentages of compensation up to 3 levels deep prior to reaching the 4th level of management, National Vice President, at which point you may receive individual and additional compensation up to 6 levels deep. If I as a Regional Vice President sponsor you, your 3rd level will currently be out of my reach as far as compensation as it will be my 4th level. When I reach National Vice President, your 6th level will be out of reach as it will be my 7th level. Again, Arbonne provides a very fair playing ground for everyone and if someone you sponsor builds a bigger business or more productive business then he/she naturally makes more income.<br><br>*THE RESULTS APPROACH is the most popular approach to building a business with Arbonne. The Results Approach incorporates using the NutriminC RE9 sets for women as your portable business partners. You drop your partners off with people (I leave my car running) who are willing to try the products for two or three days and let them do their job! You simply follow up a couple of days later for about 25-30 minutes by reading a scripted flipchart. <br><br> The flipchart explains why the botanically based products are pure, safe and beneficial, less expensive and very cutting edge (the Swiss know skin care) and introduces the building a business aspect for us. The products, based on my experience and in my opinion, sell themselves so we are not "selling" them so to speak (i.e. convincing people to get them) but sharing them and letting people decide to replace what they already spend money on with top of the line quality but less expensive products. This approach abandons group get togethers or “parties” however I highly recommend adding small get togethers or “classes” as you are able to introduce the products to several people in the same amount of time! <br><br>The result driven NutriMinC Anti-Aging Lines utilize cutting edge technology known as Nanosphere technology, which is the first delivery system of its kind in a skin care, that allows the products to penetrate the deepest layers of the skin and release the targeted anti-aging formulations where they are needed… so the anti-aging products suit most normal, oily, dry, combination, mature and sensitive skin types.<br> <br>The Arbonne business offers you… <br>-an Arbonne Website Replicating Program that allows clients to purchase off your website at retail (which compensates you 35% of the retail sale) or become consultants in order to save 35%to 80% off the retail prices (which compensates you an override commission percentage). <br>-free online training and support by top corporate leaders in the field that are taking this company to the top<br>-free order processing, shipping and payroll personnel<br>-free Arbonne.com online shopping access for you and your customers<br>-toll free lines, operators and field support<br>-reasonably priced and non profit margin business aids<br>-cutting edge research and products<br>-Regional and National Training events<br>-45 money day back guarantee for you and your customers <br>- tax deductions for the home office, computer, phone, utilities, products you use, <br> mileage, meals, training etc <br>-flexible hours <br>-unlimited extra income potential<br>-the opportunity to achieve what is important to you and your family <br><br>Your sponsor, sponsor’s sponsor and on up will <br> -Counsel you on how to get started <br> -Provide you with training and training references<br> - Inform you about Discover Arbonne meetings for you<br> and your guests, live conference calls with the team <br> and recorded training calls that you can listen too 24/7<br> -Teach and train you about the business and help you <br> teach and train others on your team<br> -Support you all the way!<br> <br>This is a Team Approach and Teamwork = Results…everyone has an interest in seeing you succeed. We have a saying within our team that…TRUE SUCCESS IS LIVING YOUR LIFE THE WAY YOU CHOOSE!<br><br>Don’t think for a second that Arbonne is overflowing with professionals and non- professionals who couldn’t find anything better to do. To the contrary, it is filled with men and women including doctors, attorneys, estate brokers, business owners bankers, stay at home mothers, students, and the list goes on, who could do whatever they wanted to do…and who have chosen Arbonne as their business of choice for a reason. More and more men are getting into Arbonne because they realize the business opportunity first and then realize how Arbonne products in the Health and Wellness Industry are able to drive the business (whereas women tend to first realize the significance of the products and then the business opportunity).<br><br>Ownership is the key to creating wealth and you have options to create wealth.<br>1)buy a franchise<br>2)buy a company<br>3)go back to school for a degree or another degree<br>4)become a part of a company that gives you the key to creating wealth. <br><br>Robert Kiyosaki, author of Rich Dad, Poor Dad, has said that in this type of business “You can make your money work for you instead of working so hard for your money” <br><br>While I initially realized that building a business part time with Arbonne would allow me to have a better quality of life and the potential to earn an income that far exceeded my six figure income, I questioned how I as an attorney, could seriously consider such a business.<br><br>Then in April 2005, I met my friend's sponsor, an attorney as well and National Vice President with Arbonne. I then questioned how I could not seriously consider starting my own Arbonne business. I thought about the often stressful 40-80 hours a week I worked for someone else, the income I received that was dictated by someone else and the limited vacation that was approved or not by someone else. It occurred to me that I wanted to leave my job...to someone else! I decided to start my new part time business immediately and weeks later left my full time legal career! Most of my family, friends and colleagues voiced that I was making a big mistake. Yet what truly mattered was what I believed, what was important to me and why. <br><br>In January 2006, I decided as an Area Manager to reevaluate my business, implement a few changes and start rebuilding anew ...our dedicated, determined and driven team qualified for Region 4 months later and the milestone that we have now achieved together as a team belongs to each of us...GO TEAM!<br><br>I love building a business with incredible friends - old and new! We leverage our time, effort and support to help each other succeed. Individually, as my own boss, I have the luxury of working the hours I want to, taking vacations when I want to and the ability to earn an unlimited income while having fun and now even driving a Mercedes-Benz that represents the ambitious efforts of the teammates that I have the honor and privelege of working with.<br><br>The opportunity that Arbonne extends is too good to be true, yet it really is. It is a once in a lifetime and a life changing opportunity to unopen, welcome, enjoy and committ to...no matter what. The ability work smarter not harder, quit trading time for money, shatter the proverbial glass ceiling and live your life the way you choose to do so is a GIFT.<br><br>My belief is that when you DECIDE to overrule the objections, yours and those around you, to believe in yourself, to start and to committ to building this business based on what is important to you and why and no matter what and to dedicate yourself to helping others succeed then you are well on your way to achieving your goals, your dreams and the future of your choice.<br><br>It’s been said that people are only presented with a real life-changing opportunity once, or maybe twice in a lifetime. I don’t know if Arbonne was my first or last time, or if it may be your first or last time, but my life is now my own again, as it should be, and I am happy to meet with you or speak with you in order to answer any questions about our products or business or to help you determine if this business is a truly a fit for you too.<br><br>Ask yourself… <br><br>1) If I (0r spouse) lose my job where will I be financially? How long will I last?<br>2) If I (spouse) want to retire…can I do so financially? <br>3) If I keep doing what I am doing, where will I be in 5 years?<br>4) Is that where I want to be?<br><br>Ask yourself… <br><br>1) What it is I want and What is important to me …perhaps <br> <br> a) more time with family (less work or less travel)<br> b) job security<br> c) means to educate your children or grandchildren<br> d) to live a debt free lifestyle<br> e) retirement security or income<br> f) a vacation that doesn’t strain the bank account<br> g) the freedom to live as you choose<br> <br>You may ask yourself… “What if it does not work for me?”<br><br> What if it doesn’t…for $29 you are able to purchase top of the line cutting edge products for you, your family and friends at a 35% to 80% off the retail. You have not lost anything.<br><br>The more significant question to ask is… WHAT IF IT DOES?<br><br>I work with individuals who want to work part time, 10 to 12 hours a week, and to earn an additional or extraordinary income for any reason...legal that is! Please note that you may sponsor teammates all over the United States and Canada and as of July 1 2007...Australia!! Our business will only keep growing and growing so now is the time to do your due diligence and decide if you want to be part of it! <br><br>You may reach me at elizabethhinds@bellsouth.net or (336) 274-0609 if I may assist you in any way and thanks for visiting this site!
