Weekly Highlights

Wow!!!! What an amazing fall & holiday selling season!!! I hope that your Usborne business has been FUN and a BLESSING to you and your family this year! This will be our last weekly highlight post until the new year. I can't wait to see what amazing things are in store for our team in 2011! Here are a couple of highlights from this week...

• Tara Maple (Opelika, AL) earned the BIG PRIZE in the Want it! Win it! promotion...she is getting her pick between an iPad, a big flat screen TV, or $500!!!

• The new incentive trip destination was announced...EVERY ONE of you has the opportunity to earn a trip to ARUBA!!!!!

I hope you all have a wonderful Christmas and enjoy time with your families!
Merry Christmas!!!!!!

Aruba, Jamaica, ooh I want to take ya...

Bermuda, Bahama, come on pretty mama! Pretty Usborne mamas need a trip to a tropical paradise...pretty Usborne mamas are going to be sitting on a beach in Aruba!!!!! Randall made the big announcement last night...5 nights in the tropical paradise of Aruba! So, who is going with us!?! The details of what we need to do to earn the trip are coming very soon. What can you be doing while you wait? RECRUIT! RECRUIT! RECRUIT! Recruits that sign up this month will Bronze during the trip earning period and you are definitely going to need Bronze recruits to earn the trip. And remember....December recruits get a 16-week incentive period!!! That means they will have even longer to reach Bronze! There may even be friends, family, or customers who want to become a consultant so that they can earn this amazing trip too! What else can you be doing? FILL YOUR 2011 calendars! You will not only need recruits to earn this vacation to paradise, but you will also need to have sales!

One of the things I am most thankful for with my Usborne business is the opportunities it has given my family. In the 3 years that I have been a consultant with Usborne I have been able to take my husband on a dream vacation to Rome, Italy, and this past April I was able to take my oldest son on a 7-day cruise through the Hawaiian Islands. Both of these experiences are absolute treasures and they would not have happened without my Usborne business. This coming April I will again get to take my husband on a dream vacation...this time to London, England and Edinburgh, Scotland!

One of best things about earning these trips is that EVERYONE has an equal opportunity to do so! A brand new consultant is on a level playing field with someone who has been with the company for 15 years...the requirements are the same and you only earn points for the business you do during the 9-month trip earning period. The secret is setting the goal and making a plan! YOU CAN DO THIS!!!! Make your goal to be on this trip and share your goal with your spouse, your family, your supervisor, and your Usborne team! I would love to help you come up with a plan to make sure you are on that plane to Aruba!


You can thank me later for causing you to sing "Kokomo" all day long in your head! :)
