A <strong>SMILE</strong><br />
SAYS IT ALL<br />
For the past few years, working two jobs had become protocol for<br />
me. I was a full-time safety coordinator and part-time dental assistant.<br />
I was exhausted and tired of spending minimal time with my<br />
family, and always being the mom who was never able to take part<br />
in school functions. I longed for a different life, a life where I could<br />
help provide for my family without being gone six to seven days a<br />
week. Little did I know that <strong>Arbonne</strong> would soon come knocking at<br />
my door. Life is full of surprises.<br />
Ever since my sister presented <strong>Arbonne</strong> to me in December of 2005,<br />
there has been no looking back. Her enthusiasm and excitement for<br />
her own <strong>Arbonne</strong> business and belief in the phenomenal products<br />
definitely intrigued me. I admit I was very skeptical at first, since I<br />
have always been one to believe that if it sounds too good to be<br />
true, it probably is. I did extensive research on <strong>Arbonne</strong> and network<br />
marketing, and this, combined with the fact that I had tried the<br />
products and became instantly addicted, made me ready to jump in<br />
with both feet. After all, the true secret of getting ahead is getting<br />
started. I figured I might be disappointed if I failed, but I would be<br />
doomed if I did not try.<br />
<strong>Arbonne</strong>=REsults has been the answer for people like me who do<br />
not have a lot of free time. This method, combined with the implementation<br />
of Presentations, always having a positive attitude and<br />
never losing momentum, have really been the keys to building a successful<br />
business. I will never forget hearing a quote in a training session<br />
that talked about the pace of the leader determining the pace of<br />
the pack. I know this has been instrumental in my business because<br />
my team followed my example and soon we were on our way.<br />

Paula Thompson Region; Fort Saskatchewan, Alberta<br />
After my third month in business, I was fast approaching qualification<br />
for Region and was finally able to make a choice about my<br />
future. No more 9-to-5 hours for me. This is also when the words<br />
“dare to dream” and “believe before seeing” became very real for<br />
me. After all, I believe you are never given a wish without also being<br />
given the power to make it come true.<br />
To my sister and sponsor, EAM Jodie Jamieson: Thank you for the<br />
gift of <strong>Arbonne</strong>. I will be forever grateful to you and to our upline,<br />
ERVP Marci Laye and ENVP Sonya Shields, for this new life. We<br />
have truly shared so much together as sisters and I cannot wait to sit<br />
