My First Entry

Good Evening!

Time is 11:04 pm.  Children have been in bed since 8 pm. Mommy has been working on her new business venture and it is taking away sleep.  But I have a goal... to be successful! And with success comes lots of lost sleep and the end results are marvelous!

If you are reading this blog, it is because I have probably posted this somewhere on Facebook and as a friend, family member, or colleague, you have chosen to read this.  So, I must say thank you first and foremost! YOU ARE AWESOME!

So this is my GRAND OPENING ANNOUCEMENT VIA BLOG!

I'M OPEN FOR BUSINESS! Next question, what the heck do you do?!

Well, I took the leap of faith and chose to create my own destiny and work from home! I work for La Bella Baskets and Gifts! WOOO!

Now I could take this opportunity to copy and paste everything that I found online about La Bella but let me give you the short version:

"The company is wonderful! You have a support system at your finger tips and your success depends on how hard you want to work. You are given a website, training materials, and again consistent support, and an opportunity to assist anyone and everyone with their gift giving needs."

But you should know more about La Bella so I've included this video link as well:

I thought to myself... could I do this? Because I've been down this road before and saw minimal success. But the first thing La Bella asks you to commit to is one year.  One year to prove to yourself that you can be successful and others will follow you leadership and be successful as well! I needed to read that and I needed to make that commitment. 

I am a gift consultant but I have chosen to market myself as the Gift Guru! I want to help you with all your gift giving needs. You tell me you want to purchase for Mom who hates candy but appreciates wine and cheese and I will find you several options on my website.  I know how much the shipping may cost.  I upsell and make contact with you via email and phone! I promote with business cards, Facebook, conversation with anyone, and a smile on my face! I'm awesome people and I feed off of other's happiness! I think that's why my full time job is in food service! I am so excited about this opportunity that I can shout it from the roof tops!

So my last comment is going to be why am I wanting to venture out and work from home and have my own business.  Well to be honest, I need more money.  My goal is to create the cushion of savings everyone should have. But I do not.  I have a work ethic that has followed me since I was 16.  I never give up and I strive for success! But then I think about my boys. I want to give them the world and Mommy's not making six figures yet and what I get paid now pays all are bills... AMEN! But I want my cushion and I like what I do.  I go to work happy and leave work happy but I was telling myself that I have weekends free now so I should get a job and punch in everyday Saturday and Sunday??

NOOOOOOOOOO!!! I will not spend two more days away from my babies! I need to watch cartoons on Saturday mornings and make breakfast. I want to go to parks and go to the grocery store and buy fruit snacks for the heck of it. So I found La Bella and I am a happy camper. 

So I make this pledge that every night unless I am not physically able to do so, I will work on my business. I will learn, grow, and prosper.  I will support others that support me.  I will be a leader within this company so my end result is my cushion that my boys and I deserve. You've seen it here first!

Now, you've read my entry.... check out my website!
Also expect weekly updates--- hence that's why I have the blog! Until next week!

With Love,
Rachael
