Replacement Shopping

It's so much fun getting a box on your front porch from Melaleuca each month. The hard part is remembering that there are over 350 products to choose from each month, and if you don't buy them from Melaleuca, you'll be buying them from the grocery store(and who knows what dangerous ingredients lurk in them).

When you started shopping with Melaleuca, you probably started with a few products that someone recommended, like the dishwashing detergent, bathroom cleaner, or toothpolish. Once you try them, you fall in love with them, so you want to get them the next time you shop. If you keep doing that, you'll have drawers full of toothpolish and dishwashing detergent--enough to keep your dishes and teeth clean for years. That's great news for your dishes and teeth, but you'll have missed out on replacing all the other products in your home that are harmful to the environment AND your family!

I go to the grocery store several times each month, and before I go, as I run out of something I jot it down on a list so I don't forget it next time I'm there. I do the same thing with Melaleuca. Each time I notice that I need lotion, soap, deodorant, cereal,or band aids, I put those items in my shopping cart on the Melaleuca website. That way, when I'm ready to shop, it's already done! Now when I go to the grocery store I skip many of the aisles!

Making healthy choices for you and the environment takes effort, but Melaleuca makes it SO easy! By simply switching stores, I save money, get healthier, safer products, and save money! It couldn't be more simple!

Residual Income, is it real?

Getting a paycheck every month is nothing unusual, right? For the last 5 years I have been working part-time and receiving a nice paycheck in return for my efforts. Last November our family got news that would change things  not only in the immediate future, but for our long-term future as well.  Career change for Howard and moving the family to Pittsburgh.

So, starting in January, we began preparing for Howard to quit his job and work in the Pittsburgh area. That meant he would live in Pittsburgh during the week and come home on the weekends. I was working part-time at our kids school, and part-time with Melaleuca, and something had to give. I couldn't be a single mom working 2 jobs and still be there for my kids when they needed me most. So I decided to stop working my business for a while. I knew it would be temporary, I just didn't know for how long.

Now we are coming up on July, it's been 6 months since I have worked my business.

Residual income is possible with Melaleuca because as we give people access to the company to purchase the kind of products they already use at a less expensive cost and a higher quality than they expect. That's why building a business makes so much sense! 95% of all customers shop month after month after month. Because of that fact, my residual income for the last 6 months has been over $1000 each month!

During a time of much upheaval in our lives,knowing that my paycheck will continue to be consistent gives me such peace and takes away a LOT of worry! All because people shopped for the products they use all the time.
