why ARBONNE?

Monday, November 20, 2006

What's up with this Arbonne thing? So glad you asked!!

Arbonne was established in the United States in 1980. We’re 27 years old. We are a solid company with strong corporate leadership. In fact, our CEO, Bob Henry, was voted Ernst & Young’s Entrepreneur of the Year this year! That’s an honor!

Our products are formulated at our own research and development lab in Switzerland, but they are made here in the US. So, we get the best formulations in the world! They are pure, safe, and beneficial. Just wait while I tell you more about the products!

We are a Direct Sales or Network Marketing company. NWM is just a way to distribute products. Arbonne is a member of the Direct Selling Association. We are the fastest growing company in the DSA!! We are only in the United States and Canada, but we are getting ready to go to other countries. We’re going to explode all over the world! (Learn more about the industry on my official website www.jenna.myarbonne.com)

We have had amazing growth in the last 5 years! We have nearly doubled in size each year since 2001. In 2005, our company grew 164%! Can you imagine if you owned stock and it grew 164%? That’s amazing growth!


What has fueled this growth?
It’s actually our amazing products! We have result-oriented product lines!
It’s also the fact that we have a system for success that produces results. When someone joins our company, we teach them step by step how to build a business with Arbonne! We have a system, and we will teach you that system so you can enjoy the results so many others have joined!

Would additional income make a difference in your life? It has been said that even an extra $300 a month could change people’s lives. In fact, it could keep many families from going bankrupt. I don’t know anyone who would say, “No, I really am good. I’d rather not have any more money. That’s too stressful!” Do you know anyone who could benefit from this opportunity?

According to current trends, people are looking for:

a. Job security: More and more people are being laid off from their jobs because of downsizing.
b. A debt-free lifestyle: In this country, credit card debt is at an all-time high.
c. Financial security: There is a big difference between having a lot of stuff and having financial security. You can have a lot of stuff and still live paycheck to paycheck. When you have financial security, you don’t worry about what would happen to you if something happened to the main income earner in your family. You have enough money put away to take care of your family for the rest of your lives.
d. Freedom to make choices: Most people have to accept the 40-hour week (or 60!) and cannot choose how they spend their time. Many people would HAVE to accept a job transfer in order to survive.
e. More time to spend with family: Do you spend as much time as you would like with your family? Do you have time and money to travel and see friends and loved ones as often as you would like?

Through Arbonne, you have the opportunity to achieve all these things. Let me ask you a question: If you keep doing what you are doing, where will you be in 5 years? Really picture that in your mind. Will you be where you want to be financially? Will you be happy doing what you are doing now?
People want a healthy lifestyle with more money and more time to enjoy it. Let Arbonne show you how!

We have a business building system: Basically, we just teach and train people about the benefits of using pure, safe, and beneficial products. We teach them how to purchase their products at a discount, and that’s awesome because everyone wants to save money! And, we teach people how to earn additional income by working this system around their current job or lifestyle. This is how it works:

Anytime you are looking into a potential opportunity, one thing you want to make sure is that the company you are considering has consumable products. Consumable products mean everyday use, and they create an opportunity for repeat sales.

Arbonne offers pure, safe and beneficial products including skin care, nutrition, weight management, aromatherapy, and color/cosmetics.

Many of our products are consumed and used every single day.

This business works through Network Marketing. Network Marketing is simply a method of distribution or a form of marketing products. The products come from the manufacturer to the consumer through a network of independent consultants. Because we can eliminate the middle man and we do our advertising through word of mouth, Arbonne can spend more money on research and development and pay great commissions to the field!

We share Arbonne with others, and we teach and train those people to do the same.

It’s an awesome way to leverage your time! Now, time leveraging is one of the key factors that separate our industry from many other careers.
In conventional careers (physicians, surgeons, teachers, lawyers), people only get paid for the hours they work. We have surgeons on our team who say that unless they are in the office seeing patients or in surgery, they don’t get paid. In other words, most people trade time for money.

This business is different. Let me illustrate time leveraging:
Many people, when they get started, only have about 10 hours a week to devote to their business. Most of them have a full-time job. So, let’s say I join Arbonne, and I invest 10 hours a week sharing the products with other people. I find 4 people who love the products and want to invest the 10 hours as well.

I recruit Susan, Betty, Mary and Sam into my business, and they each can only work 10 hours a week. I am working 10 hours a week, but I have taught and trained them to do what I do. Not only am I getting compensated for the 10 hours a week that I am working, I am also getting compensated for the efforts of other people. I am working 10, but I will be paid for 50! As my team grows, there comes a day when I can be working 10 hours, but if I have 100 people on my team doing the same (even though I might have only brought in 4!), I can get paid for 1000 hours! That’s time leveraging.
I want to show how our compensation plan works.

Before I go into this, you have to look at this through the eyes of an entrepreneur and not through the eyes of an employee.

Would you be willing to invest your time and effort in Arbonne, if you could earn a 6-figure income, part-time, in 2 years? How about 5 years? Would that still be worth it? Let me show you how this works:

*You start as a Consultant in Arbonne, and you have the potential to earn commissions on the people that you directly bring into Arbonne. The average monthly commission check for a Consultant is about $75 a month.


*The first level of management is District Manager. The average income for DMs is about $291 a month. About $300 a month can keep a lot of people from going bankrupt! Most people achieve this level in their first couple of months.

*As your team grows, you become an Area Manager, with an average income of $1,500 a month.

*Your team continues to grow, because everyone is sharing the products and the opportunity with their friends. You become a Regional Vice President, and that’s when you get the company car, which is the white Mercedes-Benz. You get to pick out the model, and it just has to be white! You get an $800 monthly car allowance. The average income for an RVP is $6,700 a month. The company average for someone to reach this level is 2 years, but many people do it in less than 1 year!

*The top level in the company is National Vice President. At this level your car bonus is $1,000 a month. The average monthly income for NVPs is $31,000 a month. The company average for someone to reach this level is 4 years, but many people do it in less than 2 years!

Of course, the results depend on your efforts. You can’t expect to join Arbonne and get to the top without doing anything!! This takes time and effort, but it’s so worth it!!

Think of people who would be interested in Arbonne’s products, the opportunity, or both.
Grab a pen and some paper…

I want you to write the names of 4 people that come to your mind. Think about someone who would really be interested in Arbonne’s products. We have talked about skin care, nutrition, and weight management. We all need good skin care and vitamins, and we all love getting discounts.

Now think of 1 or 2 people that you know would benefit from the Arbonne opportunity. From the opportunity that someone allows, is there someone who wants to be home with their children? Is there someone whose husband works too many hours? How about someone that would love to pay off debt? How about saving for retirement?

Take a minute and write down a few names. This could be the beginning of your team!
