Hi I'm Stacy
Martinez, I am a SAHM with 2 girls. My Candle business provides me
with the opportunity to earn extra income from home by offering
natural, healthy products that I love, with a flexibility that
allows me to put the needs of my family first.
A little about my
story, I have been a SAHM since my oldest daughter was 6mo. I love
being home with my girls. I have the opportunity to homeschool
them as well as plenty of free time for play dates and hanging out
doing fun crafts.
A couple of
years ago I began to look for a business that I could do from home
to make some extra money. I found something that I thought was
perfect for me and my life style. So I signed up. I bought all the
products and did all the leg work and never saw any results.
Although I loved all the products that was not enough to keep me
on board. So I quit, Yep I quit.
Months went by
and I continued on with my daily routine, I started a job working
for a friend which was perfect because I could take my girls with
me everyday. A huge plus since we always told ourselves that no
one would raise our kids but us. I worked there for a few months
and the novelty wore off real quick with my girls, they were
begging me not to go to work and they fought all the time, they
were becoming very unhappy and in turn I became unhappy. That was
definitely not my vision. So I decided to quit my job. I decided
that the happiness and well being of my kids was more important
than the little extra money I got each month.
I began a few
months later to search for something to do at home again to make
extra money, we were struggling with bills and I was very stressed
all the time and unhappy. I did allot of research on the internet,
I wanted to find something that was easy and profitable. I new I
didn't want to sell anything. I talked to a few different
companies and they sounded ok but nothing I could get excited
about. I continued to search and came across this business, and I
thought candles, who doesn't love candles? I know I do. I am sure
my friends and family do. So I filled out the more info form and
waited. My now sponsor contacted me and gave me the info I was
looking for and I thought this sounds pretty easy, but I was still
unsure about selling. I am not much of a get in front of a crowd
and speak type of person. I talked it over with my husband and
decided to go for it. I signed up a couple days later and I had
made a decision when I joined to dive in with both feet and I sure
did. So I signed up with the Candle of the Month and started to do
all the things that my sponsor suggested. At the time I only
ordered the sample pack which was a mistake cause I ended up
placing an order right away. I could have ordered the starter pack
and gotten everything I needed up front. But that's ok I learned
and moved on. As soon as my box came in I opened it and smelled
everything.
I had a friend
of mine invite me to a home party, they had a few distributors
from other companies. So I began to tell my friend that I just
singed up to sell candles, and funny thing they were trying to
find someone who sold candles to involve in this party. She got
excited and in turn that got me excited. She reads Tarot cards and
began to tell me that I was going to be successful in this
endeavor and got even more excited about my business. We started
talking and decided to do another party like this one closer
towards Christmas.
I have come to
believe that negativity get you nowhere. If you want something
believe in it and it will come your way. All sorts of
opportunities have been coming my way lately and I am so excited.
I made tons of crafty gift candles for Christmas and sold them as
well as gave them as gifts.
I have goals
set and I work each day to reach those goals. I am dreaming and
believing. I can work part time or fulltime but that is my choice.
Isn't that wonderful? Can't do that at a 9-5 job.
-
So if you are
wondering can I do this? If I can anyone can.
-
How can I raise
my kids and work a business? My kids help me run my business.
-
Will I make
money? If you believe it, you will achieve it!
You set your
destiny, mine is to do and be great, if you want to join me in my
journey, hop on board there is always room at the top for more.
