February 2012

Use … LOVE … Share is in the air with Apriori Beauty this beautiful month of February 2012!

It seems impossible that January is already behind us and once again it was record breaking. With 100% + growth over January 2011, we are already off to an unstoppable start!

January 2012 was also a monumental month with the celebration of our first two Platinum Directors, Cathi Almquist and Kim Kearns, at the beautiful Montage Resort in Laguna Beach, CA. These two fabulous women spent three warm, sunny days relaxing on the edge of the Pacific Ocean and being pampered at the beautiful Montage Spa. In addition, they hosted an amazing Opportunity Meeting for all to attend at the home office. A giant thanks for leading the way and sharing with so many how to do it. We can’t wait to share this beautiful retreat experience with even more Platinum Directors next year!

Let’s all make February a month to equally remember by sharing what we love with the people we love! That’s what we do at Apriori Beauty … share something we love with others to help make life beautiful one person at a time!

Happy February!

“Candace did a great job on her call this week, explaining who we are as a company with her partners, and the belief that she has as a network marketing leader …” — Kim Kearns, Platinum Director

“I have received incredible feedback from our team here in New England about how much Candee’s call this week helped them to understand Apriori Beauty as a company, and our position in the marketplace.” — Karen Crosby-DiCenzo, Exeuctive Director

If you USE and LOVE a product, you will naturally SHARE it with those you know. This phenomenon happens every day. How would you like to get paid for sharing something you love? 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. How many people did you recommend that movie to? Did you get paid a commission from the movie theatre for each ticket purchased from your recommendation? The Apriori Beauty opportunity is as simple, yet better than sharing a movie or something you love, because you get paid for orders received from your recommendation. And even better, you get paid more when you build a team of people that do the same! Use, Love, Share Apriori Beauty and get rewarded for it!

"Apriori Beauty is the perfect fit for my lifestyle and my desire to look and feel great everyday! Just last week, an old Client of mine asked why I decided to switch skincare lines, to Use and Share Apriori Beauty. My answer, DESIRE! When I was given the opportunity to experience the products, I so desired to look/feel young again and I desired to dream again! Both desires came ‘alive’ when I used the Apriori Beauty products in the Turn Back Time Capsule sample.

“To some it may sound funny to say ‘things came ALIVE’ after using the Time Capsule sample, but recently my husband and I have gone through really tough times financially and even had to short sell an investment property. These experiences left me feeling lost in so many ways. I fell in love with the RESULTS the Apriori Beauty samples provided, and this is when my mind began racing with ideas, possibilities and excitement. The Time Capsule sample offered me the chance to dream again. I had been involved in a similar business and I knew from prior experience that I could once again create: an excellent residual income, NEW friendships, and all kinds of fun.

“After talking in depth with Kim Kearns about her experience with Apriori Beauty, I knew I found something SIMPLE & FUN that I could build on-my-own time, alongside being a real estate investor and a realtor. Oh, I must mention, getting paid weekly, LOVE IT, BRILLANT, and on a pay card. I JUST LOVE THIS SIMPLE, FUN, SHARING SYSTEM!

“To get started, I ordered my All-in-One set and the day it arrived at my home, I was so excited, I almost felt goofy. I began experiencing all of the products … they are what I call ‘FANTABULOUS.’ Seriously, Candace, you created an AMAZING product line that works so beautifully, and is super easy to share with others! I love it all, have to have it all and it all works. My new addiction is the DFI. REALLY, I should say Apriori Beauty is my new addiction, cause I need and love it ALL!

“So, I went to work … I ordered my samples and began calling everyone I knew, and started mailing out and handing out samples. The coolest part is so many people I shared samples with began emailing or calling me back before I had a chance to follow-up. They were all RAVING about how fabulous their skin looked and felt with the sample. This makes it even easier to keep picking up the phone to tell others they are going to love experiencing Apriori Beauty.

“I was also fortunate to have a launch party in November. My sponsor, Kim Kearns came to AZ to make it fabulous. Together, we really got the attention of my friends. We shared with the gals how this business is built one relationship and one Turn Back Time Capsule at a time. My friends loved how simple this business is to do and as a result, many could see this would fit into their hectic schedules. They could see themselves sharing the samples with their friends. The night I launched, I had three friends sign-up as Consultants! Now we could really start having fun and making money together, which is so exciting!

“I also take advantage of Facebook as a way to easily connect with friends and to offer them an experience with a Time Capsule sample. I already have friends in Canada who love the products and are waiting for the day we open for business there!

“In December, two gals on my team and I did our 1st Apriori Beauty Booth and it was a great 1st run! I love doing a business like Apriori Beauty through booths/tradeshows as it’s an easy and fun way to build my cold market. My team and I are looking for inexpensive booths we can participate in together in 2012.

“At Christmas, my husband Pete and I had a party and all the female guests left with a sample to experience and enjoy. I am now reaping the benefits of those samples with Consultant and Client sign-ups after follow-up.

“As a realtor, I give all my Clients a sample to experience. This has helped me build a decent Client base. Additionally, we own two vacation rentals in Old Town Scottsdale, AZ … I include a Turn Back Time Capsule sample with a catalogue in the bathrooms for the rental guests to enjoy. This simple gesture is helping me to bring on new Clients.

“I am also part of a hiking club and I take Bikram yoga classes, so I share Apriori with those I connect with while I am having fun working out. I have to say, the Yoga gals LOVE, LOVE, LOVE Apriori Beauty and I’am beginning to see success with gaining Clients and Consultants from the yoga studio. One day, as I was checking in for my yoga class, the teacher was raving about the Time Capsule sample I had shared with her. It was perfect timing as the students waiting to take the class all heard her. Many of them asked me for samples. After hearing her rave, even the studio owner looked at me and said, ‘Deneen, my wife and I have to try this, please bring us a sample too!’ All I could think was, ‘Who could ask for better free advertising?’

“To stay connected to my team, I remind them about the weekly team calls with my upline, Cathi Almquist and Kim Kearns, and the monthly Connect Calls with Candace Keefe. I also meet my Consultants for one-on-one training/Q&A sessions. And, I am excited to share that this month I am starting my personal team call to inspire, goal set and strategize ways to connect with new Clients/Consultants, so we can all succeed in this business together.

“My newest Consultant, Ceci is in VA and we are in the process of planning her launch party. I’ve been ‘SKYPING’ with her to help her prepare for this presentation. You gotta love today’s technology, especially how it can be used to benefit your business.

“Lastly, my business reaps the most benefit when I do something every day to build it. Yet, if I get super busy on an investment property we are preparing or if I have a busy Client week as a realtor, instead of beating myself up for not attending to my Apriori business, I just re-focus, set a new goal to make a few calls and I keep myself inspired because I know I am working on ‘Going Platinum,’ one client at-a-time, one level in the business at-a-time.

“My motto is ‘Be more driven by what you want to create than by what you fear!’ This thought process has allowed me to continue to grow and move to new levels. I am thankful and blessed that I was introduced to Apriori Beauty by Diana Adamo and Kim Kearns. Thank you both for changing my direction and for giving me a new dream!”

“By being interested, instead of being interesting, creates trust.”

“The key to sharing Apriori Beauty starts with you. Your excitement and belief in the products, the company and the opportunity it can provide, is the foundation for success. However, having the skill to relate to people is also essential.

“As a young girl, I grew up watching my Father's ability to build relationships with people. He sincerely took an interest in getting to know them by asking simple questions. He taught me that taking the time to listen; they will tell you everything you need to hear to help meet their needs. By being interested, instead of being interesting, creates trust. Industry trainer Michael S. Clause puts it best, ‘People will do business with those they know, like and trust.’ This philosophy my Dad stood behind long ago, and I embraced. With that being said, you don't have to be a sales expert to do this business.

“Nine years ago, I was introduced to Candace Keefe and Network Marketing. As a Professional Makeup Artist and involved on the retail side of Cosmetics for over 15 years, her knowledge and integrity amazed me. I soon realized that this industry coupled with a great product that I could be ‘boss free!’ I know firsthand that with dedication and persistence that success is possible.

“Candace and her incredible team at Apriori Beauty have produced a prestige product that gives results and I can't help but to share them with others. The best part is that the product is a vehicle for us to make money right now and/or build an organization by teaching others to do the same. There is nothing more gratifying than helping women look and feel beautiful, but showing them how they can provide for their a family, put gas in their car or give back to their communities is a true gift.

“My gratitude goes to Candace, Elizabeth and Susan for having the vision to create Apriori Beauty and to Katy for her expertise and educating us so we feel prepared to go out and share them.

“Thank you for giving me the opportunity to share my beginning with Apriori Beauty. I hope that this resonates with Consultants and helps them to understand how easy this can be. Here's to everyone's success!”
