Go Wild and find yourself at Director Summit DIRECTOR SUMMIT 2009 was the culmi- nation of a year of preparing, creating and designing the best tools and programs for your business. This powerful event brought Directors and Future Directors together for three historic days of training. The main topic: Freedom! Independent Executive Director Tami DiDio knew from the moment she heard about the Freedom Plan that she and her team could build their business as big as their dreams. “The Freedom Plan is what this business is all about. It’s about helping others. There are going to be a lot more leaders, a lot more teams forming and a lot more lives changing. I tell my team, ‘With the Freedom Plan, we’re going to make the money we need and be the people we want to be!’” Independent Senior Director Jennifer Molinari also saw the limitless possibilities for herself and her team with the Freedom Plan. “When BeautiControl says they are going to do something—BAM—they deliver! I love nothing more than connecting with my team and reaching out to help them achieve their goals. The Freedom Plan is the exact tool I need to make it happen. I am confident that we’re all going to grow exponentially under this new plan,” she said. During Director Summit, more than 100 Directors were rewarded for helping change The signature Blossom Bag became the must-have accessory for successful Directors and Consultants lives. The exclusive Blossom handbag was awarded to everyone who had already signed up one or more new Consultants before Summit. Jennifer is already reaping the benefits of her bag. Not only is she in style everywhere she goes, she’s also growing her business. She said, “This bag is fabulous! I get tons of compliments on it. It’s the perfect conversation starter for my business… I’ve already booked two spas with it!” e ACH I E VER FEB RUA RY 2010 5 1/15/10 6:50:48 PM Ali Landry shares her inspiring story of confidence and helps Gary demonstrate the beautiful new cheetah print gloves.

Advisory Board Chairman Shelley Callahan inspires the crowd Gary Jones and Ali Landry talk about going wild at spa with the new cheetah print accessories and powerful spa tools Alaska cruise winners receive BC signature scarves Director Summit Special Guest Ali Landry Building Confidence with BeautiControl® As a special guest at Director Summit, former Independent Consultant Ali Landry— a model, actress, Miss USA , mother and businesswoman—described what BeautiControl has meant to her and how it has helped to shape her life. Ali was a BeautiControl Consultant while in college and used the money she earned to pay for her education. Though she had to stop to participate in the Miss USA pageant, she was wearing BeautiControl cosmetics when 6 ACH I E VER FEB RUA RY 2010 10-8122 February Dom 6-7 she won the title. To this day, she continues using BeautiControl products. “It’s all I carry in my purse,” Ali said. When asked what it meant to her to be at Director Summit, Ali said, “I’m excited to be a part of Director Summit. It’s incredible to see all of the leaders for BeautiControl gathered to learn how to be more effective as they build their businesses. BeautiControl offers such opportunity and financial freedom to everyone. I’m thrilled to be a part of it.” Ali wasn’t the only one who was thrilled. The Directors and future Directors in attendance loved hearing Ali’s story and were visibly moved. Independent Director Jennifer Molinari summed it up best when she said, “Ali Landry’s story is inspiring. When she told us about how she was a BeautiControl Consultant and what BeautiControl did for her, I was even more proud to be part of such a wonderful company. It was very powerful.” e More Than Just a Diamond Necklace Independent Executive Director Wins Necklace from W.H.O. at Summit Directors and Consultants at all levels purchased raffle tickets benefiting the W.H.O. (Women Helping Others®) Foundation between Oct. 15th and Dec. 10th, 2009. Tickets were entered into a drawing to win a beautiful 18kt white gold diamond necklace valued at $1,500. The lucky winner was Independent Executive Director Kathy Maples. But it wasn’t just any diamond necklace. To Kathy, it symbolized so much more. “Independent Platinum Senior National Executive Director Evelyn Coleman bought 122 tickets for her Directors who attended Summit, and the ticket she bought for me was the winning ticket! But it’s better than that. At Celebration 2008, I lost the most beautiful necklace I had ever earned from BeautiControl. I once told Evelyn, jokingly, if she wanted to replace it I would be happy to take one of her necklaces she didn’t wear,” Kathy said. Evelyn not only replaced Kathy’s necklace, she helped make a difference in the lives of many through the W.H.O. Foundation. “It is so meaningful being from the W.H.O. Foundation, an organization that gives back so generously. Both W.H.O. and Evelyn had a part in replacing my beautiful necklace, and I can’t thank them enough. I never want to take it off ! Receiving the diamond necklace at Summit was such an incredible moment in my BeautiControl career. By sharing this story, I know my team will want to support W.H.O. in a much bigger way.” e ACH I E VER FEB RUA RY 2010 7 1/15/10 6:51:03 PM Adventure Awaits Build your team as you EARN INCREDIBLE REWARDS as you help others discover a life of financial share financial freedom. freedom.

Louise said, “I earned a beautiful diamond pendant and earring set with BeautiControl in a recruiting promotion. I was waiting for the appropriate time to give them to our 26-yearold daughter. A few months ago, I knew this Christmas was that time. But I also wanted to find some gifts for our teenage son too. And that’s when BeautiControl launched the ‘Debt-Free Holiday Recruiting Promotion.’ “I was so excited and picked the prizes I wanted him to have—the digital camera, the Wii, and the Best Buy gift card to buy an additional game for the Wii!

José Luis Vice President of Sales ACH I E VER FEB RUA RY 2010 9 1/15/10 6:51:38 PM T U R N IN G Obstacles into Opportunity How it took a woman who never quit to conquer the city that never sleeps. hen it comes to starting a new business, everybody encounters obstacles they have to overcome. For some, it’s a lack of start-up money. For others it’s the lack of reliable transportation or a computer. Others may experience a lack of support from friends and even family. And then there’s Independent Executive Director Tami DiDio, who one day found herself staring at all three problems, all at once. Until recently, Tami’s family had owned a trucking company. But like many businesses as of late, it went under—leaving her and her family in total financial devastation. With both she and her husband out of work and no money coming in, the family car soon followed, repossessed due to failure of payment. And as they sometimes do, what started out as money problems slowly grew into marriage problems. It was then —with no income, no prospects and almost no hope —that Tami was invited to something that would change her life forever— her first BeautiControl spa. “When I was invited to my first spa I was at the lowest point of my life,” Tami readily admits. “In fact, when my friend asked me, my first instinct was to say ‘no way’. I couldn’t even justify the cost of buying a foot creme. I just couldn’t afford it. I had literally no money.” But Tami’s friend scoffed and said to come anyway. Telling her she wouldn’t have to worry about buying anything. She insisted that Tami simply come, relax and enjoy it. And that Tami could just think of it as a gift. “It was a gift,” Tami says with obvious emotion in her voice. “And that’s something I believe in to this day. The spa is a gift. They are our gifts to women.” “So I ended up going to the spa,” Tami continues, “mainly because I felt like I couldn’t 10 ACH I E VER FEB RUA RY 2010 10-8122 February Dom 10-11 tell her no. I had only $30 in my pocket. And I loved everything! I left buying nothing but wanting it all.” Tami may not have bought anything, but she still walked away with something amazing—her newfound enthusiasm for BeautiControl. Soon Tami’s girlfriend started urging her to hold her first spa. Again, her first instinct was “no way.” “It was a crazy idea,” says Tami. “I thought to myself: I can’t sell things. I have no money. I’m Tami may not have bought anything at the spa, but she still walked away with something amazing – her newfound enthusiasm for BeautiControl. not a sales person. The idea of talking in which to Tami may have been the moon front of people terrifies me! How in the since she didn’t have a car. To make matters worse, at that time training was world could I sell?” But Tami’s love and enthusiasm for only offered once every two months BeautiControl, as well as her family’s and the day that Tami was to attend, she needs, were too much to ignore, so she woke up with a fever of a 104°.

With my voice shaking, I said ‘I want to thank all didn’t believe in what I was saying.” of you for what you‘ve Tami, however, was Desperate, done for me, and I want convinced.

For her, the know how it would happen, but I followed what everyone at BeautiControl said to obstacles were just beginning. One obstacle was the fact that back do, and most importantly, I believed.” There was one person, however, who then the closest BeautiControl training was an hour and a half away in New Jersey, didn’t believe. Even though Tami was >> 1 Connect With Others and Make A Difference Jennifer Molinari Independent Senior Director Sometimes people get so caught up in their own lives that they never stop to see the obstacles in front of others. That’s not true with Jennifer. At first glance, it seemed Jennifer had everything she could ever want in her life. She had two beautiful children, a loving police captain husband and three jobs in addition to just holding the time-consuming position of “Mom.” In reality, Jennifer discovered that there was a part of her life missing that she didn’t even know existed. She realized that sometimes it’s not about what she can do to change her own life, but what she can do to help change others. “I have a Consultant on my team, Mary Schiro, who has two autistic sons,” explains Jennifer. “She was recently at an event with Jose Luis and myself, and after he showed us the path to financial freedom Mary had an ‘ah-ha!’ moment that will stay with me for the rest of my life. It was as if a switch went off, and she saw that this was going to be her answer. That she’d be able to provide for her boys in a way that she never thought possible. It was so powerful to witness. There’s not a paycheck that can hold a candle to that feeling.” Whether it’s helping someone who’s selfconscious about her skin, or watching her best friend, Independent Director Helene Graci, see her dream come true, Jennifer knows there’s nothing like the feeling of making a difference. e ACH I E VER FEB RUA RY 2010 11 1/15/10 6:52:05 PM now helping to support her family by putting food on the table, her husband was still completely unsupportive. Even after 11 months when Tami had earned Directorship and was invited to attend a national conference, her husband still didn’t support her. “I was so excited to attend my first national conference!” remembers Tami. “My husband thought someone like me didn’t belong at national conferences, but I knew he was wrong and I wanted to prove it to him. I thought if I could get him to come with me he would see. After a lot of convincing, he agreed to come along. I knew it was going be a very important trip for me and my family.” Tami was right. On the very first night, something important did happen. As Cindy Koleba cartwheeled across the stage while being recognized for achieving Senior National Executive Director, Tami had a vision. “I’d followed Cindy’s stories in the Achiever and Empowering Women magazines,” explains Tami. “She was such an inspiration! I realized what she had done 12 ACH I E VER FEB RUA RY 2010 10-8122 February Dom 12-13 with Canada, and I’d also remembered what Mari Santo-Domingo had done with Puerto Rico, and I suddenly knew what I wanted to do. And for the first time I felt like it was possible.” Tami wanted to put New York on the map. Among the lights, love and elation that she saw on stage, Tami had finally connected with her vision. Her life and its possibilities literally flashed before her eyes. She saw it. And even better, she saw how she could, and would, make it happen. With tears of joy in her eyes, Tami turned to her husband to tell him everything that she’d just realized, only to realize something else…he wasn’t even there. “He walked back in from the buffet or the bathroom or wherever he was, and I tried to explain to him what had happened,” recalls Tami. “Instead of understanding, he just started trying to suck the life out of me. He had no interest. He wasn’t listening to me at all.” It was then that Tami found the power to overcome yet another obstacle in her life. Taking a deep, determined breath, Tami did three things at that moment. She took one final look at the stage— the place where everything in her life finally connected—and put every detail to memory to keep as inspiration for the future. She reached deep inside herself and saw that she truly believed in what was happening around her and where she could take her life with the opportunity. And then she did something that, well, is best described in her own words. “I looked at my husband and said ‘either you’re leaving or I’m leaving,’” states Tami matter-offactly. “By his face I could tell that he wasn’t going anywhere, so I turned around, said ‘see you later’ and left.” And just like that, Tami walked out and achieved her freedom. She didn’t stay and attend the national conference she had worked so hard to earn. She didn’t enjoy the vacation she so desperately needed. She didn’t even walk across the stage to be recognized for her Directorship. “I was only there for a couple hours, but that was enough for me.” Tami says without a hint of regret. “It was all I needed. I knew I’d be there next year, and at a higher level. From there everything changed. I had a vision. And with that vision, I now had power.” The one thing she didn’t have, however, was a place to stay. So, after packing her things, Tami left her husband and her hotel room and spent the night sleeping in a closed airport. When she finally made it home, her mother greeted her at the door with tears in her eyes, upset that her daughter had worked so hard, but didn’t walk across the stage Tami had fi nally connected with her vision. Her life and its possibilities literally flashed before her eyes. She saw it. And even better, she saw how she could, and would, make it happen. 2 Reach Out and Help Those in Need Karen Lorenzo Independent Director When Karen decided to take her love of skin care and share it with the world, she faced the same obstacle that many of us do. The only diff erence is, for Karen that obstacle only made her stronger. “People who were negative only pushed me harder,” explains Karen. “I actually want to thank the people who were negative. ‘I don’t like parties…I don’t do those things…No one has money…I don’t have time.’ Everyone with the usual excuses. Thank you! In the beginning, they were really helping me out.” As a registered nurse, Karen was used to all sorts of excuses and complaints, so when she ran into someone who wasn’t interested in the opportunity and the help she had to offer, she knew exactly what to do. “I just went on to the next person,” says Karen matter-of-factly. “You can’t take it personally. Just keep going. People are going to say yes.” All Karen truly wants to do is help women change lives. And she knows that nothing is going to stop her from doing that. There are millions of people out there, and even if not all them want it, she knows a lot of them could use the help she’s offering. “Recently, people have been telling me that they can see my passion,” says Karen. “They can see I love what I do. It makes me feel so great that I’m making people feel good, and as a nurse, I always want to help people.” e to accept her Directorship. Tami told her not to worry. “I told her this wasn’t going to be a one time thing,” Tami says confidently. “I knew I‘d be back.” Then Tami took her first Director check, packed up her three kids and left. Now, for most people, this part of the story would be enough. Most people would think: “Mission accomplished. Life changed. Happy ending. Roll credits.” Most people, however, don’t know Tami DiDio. Tami had a vision, and after overcoming such a myriad of obstacles, Tami now had belief in herself and her vision. There was one thing, however, that Tami still needed. Tami needed help. Tami needed people that shared her vision. Tami needed the power of three. “My vision of Spa New York would never be possible unless I had people who believed what I believed,” Tami states adamantly. “The power of three doesn’t include me. The power of three is more. It’s the power of the people I met along the way. Since the beginning of my business, I would never be where I am if it wasn’t for them.” So with the same determination that a mother of three with a 104˚ fever had to make her New Jersey training session barely more than a year ago, Tami took her enthusiasm and her vision and started making it happen by convincing her friends and Consultants that it could be done. It honestly didn’t take much more than Tami being herself. One of the first people to jump on board was Independent Senior Director Jennifer Molinari. As an administrative office worker, licensed hairdresser and volunteer cheerleading coach, it’s surprising that Jennifer could add anything to her busy, whirlwind life, but Tami and her excitement for her BeautiControl vision just couldn’t be missed. “Tami is the type of person that you just fall in love with when you meet her,” Jennifer laughs when asked about her friend and Executive Director. “She’s so full of life and love and she really just radiates a genuine passion that you don’t see all the time.” With a police captain husband who worked nights and weekends on a regular basis, two children and three jobs herself, when Jennifer decided that she wanted to start doing spas she wondered how on earth she would fit it all in. But after she attended her first Unit Meeting at Tami’s home and heard her enthusiasm for her Spa New York vision, Jennifer >> ACH I E VER FEB RUA RY 2010 13 1/15/10 6:52:12 PM knew she had to make time in her life to make it happen. “I owe so much of my success to Tami!” exclaims Jennifer. “Although I wasn’t her personal recruit, she never treated me as if I were anything but. She held my hand through spas, empowered me to take a leadership role and helped me to succeed in every way possible. I will never forget how easy it could have been to get “lost” if she had decided to only focus on her personal team. I can never repay her for what she has done for me and my family. She’s a shining example of what this opportunity stands for, and I am proud to have her as not only an Executive Director, but a good friend.” In fact, she was such a good friend, that when Jennifer walked across the stage to accept her Directorship, Tami walked across with her—fulfilling the promise Tami made when she walked out of her own Director recognition. And, just to make the moment even sweeter, there was another lady that made that trip across the stage — Tami’s mother. The next person to join Tami on her vision quest was Independent Director Karen Lorenzo, although Karen didn’t really realize she was going to at the time. “I never planned to do anything with the business. I just really liked the skin care. 14 ACH I E VER FEB RUA RY 2010 10-8122 February Dom 14-15 My skin felt good all the time and I loved it” says Karen. A registered nurse, Karen thought she’d already found her calling and career. She loved helping people and already had a job that let her do just that. But Tami wasn’t going to let something like that stop her. “Karen was a gift given to me two Christmases ago,” says Tami excitedly. “I knew she was a nurse. I knew she could share her love for skin care with other nurses, but she didn’t seem like she was interested in having her own business. But I believe one of my gifts is that I’m always sharing my passion and people feel it. Karen felt it. And one day she asked what she needed to do.” That’s all it really took. Now with 200 Consultants on her team, Karen has turned her love for helping people through nursing into a love of helping people through the BeautiControl opportunity. She couldn’t be happier, and she says she has Tami to thank for it. “Tami has the biggest heart and she would do anything for anyone,” gushes Karen. “Tami believed in me even when I didn’t believe in myself. She led the way. I felt like giving up in January. I was tired. I didn’t have any spas. Tami told me she would help me become a Director. And now I am.” 3 Achieve the Life You Always Dreamed Helene Graci Independent Director In recent years a new obstacle has been appearing more and more frequently when it comes to starting a new business–the economy. Recently many people have lost jobs, been told that they’d have to find new careers and been forced to settle for less. Director Helene Graci thought she might be one of them. “I had been recently laid off from this firm on Wall Street,” says Helene. “Even though they were ranked as one of the 10 best places for working moms, I got penalized for calling in sick and taking care of my daughter.” But now, by harnessing the freedom of the BeautiControl opportunity, connecting with the people around her and reaching out to share her love for the spa experience, Helene has achieved something amazing. Helene didn’t just replace her Wall Street earnings, she gained something more valuable. “Wall Street gave me everything I ever wanted financially, but they never gave me my daughter,” explains Helene. Thanks to her hard work, dedication and a friendship with best-friend since 6th grade Jennifer Molinari, Helene has fulfilled a lifelong dream and become something she’s always wanted to be—a stay-at-home mom. “My husband and I couldn’t afford to lose my salary,” states Helene. “And I always wanted to be at home with my daughter. I’m now working for myself and I’m part of the best company in the world. I’d be miserable working for corporate America.” e We all have the same dreams. It’s about putting our vision of Spa New York out there. Tami, however, insists that it wasn’t all her. “We all have the same dreams.” explains Tami. “It’s about putting our vision of Spa New York out there. And that dream worked so well with Karen’s dream that it all just came together.” “I’m still a nurse.” smiles Karen. “Tami just says that now I’m nursing people’s skin back to health.” The final piece of the fantastic four, Independent Director Helene Graci, wasn’t even in Tami’s downline. A friend of Jennifer Molinari since the 6th grade, Helene worked on Wall Street and financially had everything she needed, but she was still missing one thing. “The firm gave me everything I wanted, but they never gave me my daughter” states Helene. “Tami’s passion for her children and being a single parent is what made me realize I can leave my job and be home with my kids. It’s her passion that keeps me going. When you have passion for something and you give it to someone, I believe it will come back to you twofold.” But it wasn’t just Helene receiving inspiration and support from Tami. Tami received the same inspiration and support back from Helene. And once again that helped her overcome another obstacle that she’d struggled with in her life. “I leaned on Helene from the onset,” admits Tami. “Like I said before, I had such an issue of speaking to people, but both Helene and Jennifer believed I could do it. It was so bad that at my first BeautiU, I was asked to speak in front of the class, and I was so nervous I had to take a chair and sit down rather than stand up and do it. That was my comfort zone. But Helene gave me encouragement. She always referred to me as ‘my fearless leader’ and thanks to her support I can now do something that I never thought I would be able to do. Both Helene and Jennifer taught me that with the right support anything’s possible.” And Tami’s not done learning. Even now as an up-and-coming New York BeautiControl queen, Tami still remembers that she can learn something from everyone she meets on her journey— from other Executive Directors to even the newest Consultant. “Just recently I met Lynda Gambardella, a new Consultant on Helene’s team,” points out Tami. “Lynda was a top seller for two months in a row. I thought just that fact was impressive, but then I learned that at one of her spas recently, Lynda ended up turning everyone who attended bright blue. Literally! And despite that, she still had a $750 spa! When I heard that I told myself, ‘I need to know what she’s doing! If she can turn everyone blue at her spas and still be successful, then I have to know.’ We connected and Lynda taught me how to really bring relaxation into my spa. It’s just proof that even the newest person in your group can make a huge difference.” And Tami has made a huge difference. Her life has turned a complete 180˚ degrees. Now she has her Mustang, has earned her financial freedom and she’s literally seeing her vision come to life right before her eyes. Through hard work, determination and a true belief in the BeautiControl opportunity, she’s seen herself overcome more obstacles than anyone ever should have to. And, with the advent of the new Freedom Plan, Tami sees even more great things coming in the future. “I think the Freedom Plan is what this business is about,” says Tami “It’s about helping others. I’ve always believed 100% in helping the people on my team. And I love the fact that now we’ll actually be compensated for it. With the Freedom Plan things are going to be even bigger. There’s going to be a lot more leaders, a lot more teams forming and a lot more lives changing and my passion for this opportunity is now four times greater.” So get ready for a new explosion of enthusiasm New York, because Tami DiDio and her amazing team are out there, and they can’t wait to start spreading the news. e Spa NY’s Tips for Never Giving Up • Think positive! Your mind-set can truly make or break whether or not you achieve your goals. • Don’t worry about people who are negative. There are millions of people out there who need BeautiControl—whether it’s for better skin care, the amazing opportunity or both. • Spa is your gift to your clients. Make sure your clients feel like they’re there for pampering, not just to purchase. • Don’t be afraid to ask for help—from your team and from BeautiControl itself. Remember, you may work for yourself, but you’re never alone.

These may not be pleasant to consider but, as a majority of women are or will be troubled by at least one of these, it’s important we pay attention. Stretch marks take just a few months to develop but without intervention, they can remain with you for life. Stretch marks look like streaks on the surface of the skin, but are actually small tears that form in the tissue. Normally skin is elastic and capable of stretching quite a bit, however, the changes that occur during pregnancy or growth spurts can be very drastic. We all know someone who has scars from an injury or from surgery. A scar results from the biologic process of wound repair in the skin and other tissues of the body. Nearly every wound , including common acne, results in some degree of scarring. Though scarring is a natural part of the healing process, what’s left behind can be unsightly. A similar concern is spider veins. Usually appearing as a cluster of thin lines, spider veins are often red or blue and are close to the skin. Veins are crucial in returning blood from the body back to the heart, and given the choice, most of us prefer they remain unseen. In response to these concerns, our team at BeautiControl is introducing our brand new BC Spa Solutions Scar, Stretch Mark and Spider Vein Minimizing Creme. If you have scars, stretch marks or spider veins, this breakthrough treatment will come to your rescue. The BeautiControl Research Institute developed this clinical strength formula with ingredients shown to reduce the appearance of redness, improve skin texture and dramatically reduce the appearance of all of these marks on your face or body. We expect this product to become a runaway hit. Get an early start on ordering!

I spend time with her to let her know she can make the same difference with her guests. First, I identify something that she might need to work on her face, and I offer her the Spa day treatment. When it comes time to book, I usually give her a small gift of my own—such as the Extreme Repair Hand Creme—as a thank you gift for booking. I offer her the neckwrap if she doesn’t cancel, to be delivered on the day of the Spa, and I use the Hostess envelope to make sure she is clear about all the gifts she can earn when we work together at the Spa. In other words, I make her feel that she is my total partner so that she starts having a taste of how easy and fun it is to do what I do. 1 Start your new business by purchasing your BC Spa BeautiCase, or give your business an even bigger boost with the BC Spa Business Case.

Be sure to check the following off your First 3 Month To-Do List! YO Make This Your Biggest Month Ever FINANCIAL FREEDOM D Spa from the Heart I’ve been doing spas for 7 years and one thing that really works for me is I prepare the guests for the amazing life experience they are going to have by speaking from the heart. Once my Hostess determines the names and numbers of her guests, she gives them to me to start calling them. I insist that this will be a gift they will give to themselves and, therefore, since it will be a time to get rid of stress, they should come without makeup, dress comfortably and bring a pair of socks, because it’ll be a total girls’ night! One day before the Spa, I confirm our date with each one of them. I make sure that the place we will be using for the relaxation portion is a quiet and fresh place with no street noise in order to create the ideal experience we are pursuing—total relaxation! When people relax, they loosen their pockets! The day of the Spa, once the guests start arriving, I talk to them to find out their needs and I start taking notes. That way I can start determining where to identify my prospective recruits, my next booking and, of course, my sales. As the Spa is wrapping up, I sit with each guest individually, while I continue showing my Hostess as the star as she tries on the wet/dry foundation. I make sure to offer facial treatments, since they are the easiest to reorder. This way I secure customers for life! I always express my gratitude for having the privilege to know new people in each Spa, and touch their lives the way they touch mine. We end up establishing a friendly relationship that is priceless. As a recruiter, I make them see the convenience of becoming a Consultant instead of staying as a customer. I let them see the alternatives and the freedom BC offers—their own store, their own business if that’s what they wish. I let them know there is an answer for every person and every circumstance here. My biggest wish in each Spa is to share my heart in order to create an atmosphere of respect, kindness, peace and sisterhood. Most importantly, to each Spa I bring happiness. This really affects people and they identify with it. The most important thing for me is to serve and to help others to look and feel better. That’s my daily fuel—I love for people to feel important. There are so many people around us that do not feel like that.
