Apriori Beauty is all about using great products that you love, sharing them with others and getting rewarded for it! Think about the last movie you saw and thought was great.

As a former professional dancer and choreographer who owned a competitive dance studio for over 10 years, I decided to slow down and concentrate on my personal life when I had my first son. Shortly followed by a second son, my life has centered around family with focus on giving back to the community when I have a second to breathe. I met Louri Boilard back when I owned the dance studio and when she first joined Apriori Beauty, she introduced me to the products and opportunity. At the time, I remember telling her, “it's a lovely presentation but I'm not doing this.” Whereas I was looking for something new to get involved with, I didn't foresee myself selling anything, let alone skin care products. I was the type of person who would go to bed with a full face of makeup; taking care of my skin was not a priority. Even though I had declined Louri's initial invitation to become part of Apriori Beauty, that didn't stop her from calling and checking up on me every now and then. She has always been a constant in my life, encouraging and listening to me whenever I needed a friend. I went on to explore a few different opportunities, including event planning, but none proved to be the one for me.

It wasn't until I was in a car accident that my thoughts shifted into focus. I looked in the mirror and didn't recognize the woman looking back at me. She was in sweats, covered in kid snot and milk. A far cry from the Jenny in cocktail dresses and heels that I was used to. I forgot who I was and what my business goals were. I decided to call Louri. “Okay,” I said into the phone, “I'm ready to hear about this business opportunity again.” I sat down with her and asked every question possible. I had all the excuses lined up for why Apriori Beauty wasn't for me, but with every answer she shared, those excuses diminished. There was so much more depth to the business than I had originally thought. To me, skincare was superficial, but my view changed when I realized it's so much more than that. It's about looking and feeling good and giving someone an opportunity to be emotionally and financially successful. After months of restless nights, I went home and had the best night's sleep of my life.

I joined Apriori Beauty because I wanted something new and meaningful in my life. I ended up using, loving and sharing the products like crazy. I was someone who never took care of my skin and now, I can't get enough of it. I find myself looking forward to washing my face and pampering myself with facials. It's easy to share when you're behind the products 110%. My husband started taking samples to work with him and sharing with employees, who quickly became Clients of mine. In addition, I shared the opportunity with friends and former work colleagues. I love being my own boss and doing something for myself. They trusted my work ethic and integrity and signed up as Consultants. Sponsoring Consultants has helped me re-establish friendships that had fallen to the wayside. It's provided opportunities for me to spend time with girlfriends that I otherwise wouldn't be able to.

There's so many aspects of this business that I cherish. I have two kids under the age of five, so my Apriori Beauty time is scheduled in during nap and bedtime. I follow-up with prospects while the kids are asleep and take full advantage of Facebook by connecting and networking with friends and new prospects. I don't have to hold a party to be successful in retail sales, I just have to trek the little ones to the post office and mail out samples. I'm not a sales person and I don't have to be. I'm thrilled about Apriori Beauty's products and it shows when I share with people, but it doesn't mean that Clients and Consultants just fall in my lap without any effort. You have to work, you have to follow-up with your contacts, and be business-minded to a certain degree. One huge advantage we have over department stores is our customer service. The lady behind the Lancome counter won’t call you Sunday to see how you’re doing and ask you if you have any questions. They aren’t able to go to your house and give you quality one-on-one time; providing product demonstrations and assisting you with any needs you have. No, that is why Apriori Beauty is the full package. We have the products, we have the business opportunity, but more importantly, we have each other. Apriori Beauty Consultants are generous with their time. Each Consultant holds a wealth of information that they’re willing to share with anyone that asks. We’re here for one another!

My sponsor, Louri Boilard has shown me what it means to be an Apriori Beauty Consultant. She didn't give up on me and believed Apriori Beauty would be something wonderful for me. When it comes to Louri, it's never about her, it's always about you. She's here to help you and will go the extra mile, which I strive to do for not just my team but for everyone. Apriori Beauty is a vehicle for empowering women and I couldn't be more proud to represent this unique and incredible company.

Recognizing outstanding retailing results

Amanda Johnson | Consultant from Pennsylvania
Joined: March 2013
Has 15 Personal Clients
Top 5 Weekly Retailer: April 2013

While I wouldn't consider myself a success story just yet, I am thrilled with the feedback and sales that I have created from my Clients. When I first signed-up as a Consultant, I listened to my manager, Paula Yudelevit, who advised “don't be stingy with samples, but don't give them everything either.” When I tell people about Apriori Beauty, it is clear how much I love it because of my excitement for the product. Plus, they can see the results in my skin! I rave about the all-natural benefits, as well as the amazingly fresh scent. I always start off with recommending my most absolute, favorite product, the Enzyme Activated Micro Scrub and then build from there (trouble areas, specific skin care need, etc). Once a Client orders one product, they are forever hooked.

Since I am a full-time mom and work a full-time job, I never know when I’m going to meet a potential Client. In fact, I’ve met a lot of my Clients through my little girls. When we’re at the Dr.’s office, at dance practice, or even the park, I always incorporate it into my conversations with other parents and make sure I have samples in my bag to hand out. Even my baby-sitters are hooked on the ProDeramlin line! I have several of my mommy friends who love the Apriori Beauty products, but are waiting until they can afford it. As a mother myself, I completely understand putting skin care on hold while your budget is consumed with baby formula and diapers; however, I inform them that I used to focus solely on the kids with regard to my budget until I decided that my face is the one thing I have that is going to be with me through life and that it’s about time that I started taking care of me and that I am worth it! It's amazing how much that statement resonates with some of my clients.  We may not buy the $500 shoes, but it doesn’t mean we can’t splurge on ourselves with products here and there. In addition, I am still in that phase of my life where a lot of my friends are having babies. When pregnant or nursing, it's a constant struggle trying to find products that are safe and not harmful for you or the baby. Apriori Beauty is an easy sell for this when they hear it's all-natural and you can use as much as you want without worry!

As stated earlier, my go-to product is the Enzyme Activated Micro Scrub, I just can’t rave enough about this glorious product! I give potential Clients a sample and recommend mixing it with the Celloxylin Crème Cleanse – an amazing combination! Plus, the amount of product you get for the price is unbeatable. When Clients see the size of the scrub and then hear how it’s only $38, they’re speechless!
