As a seasoned entrepreneur, owning my own business is the primary way I choose to make my income. The status quo of most jobs where people trade hours for dollars is simply not a viable road for me to wander down. The main reason is office politics, which, next to rush hour traffic, is the most ridiculous thing that people have to put up with. The second, is the glass ceiling imposed on the masses within the corporate bubble – trading hours for dollars and never really getting anywhere but deeper into debt. Not a smart choice when there are other, better options.
Lately I’ve been receiving emails for franchise opportunities. None of which cost less than $70 K as a minimum investment required. Please note…a minimum investment with a bigger franchise starts at $70 K!
Now, you may ask, why am I even blogging about this today?
And yes I will shout why I am from the rooftops. Franchising is really no different than Network Marketing, otherwise known as an MLM or Direct Sales. The three biggest differences and the three most important reasons why Network Marketing is the best business model going is it’s low cost of entry, the company does ALL of the heavy lifting for you, and getting started is as easy as putting it on your credit card!
With my company, someone who wants to build a side business can
get started for less than a thousand dollars. Hard costs for your overhead are approximately $1200 a year. Sound like a lot of money to you? Relatively speaking, if you’ve ever owned a business, you know IT IS NOT!
Here is what is included in your overhead: No inventory is required. You get two public websites and a back office website that automatically takes care of your “paperwork”. Also provided is corporate support, sales support, marketing/pr, a nurse hotline, a warehouse for the products plus shipping and handling, research and development, no employees to worry about, training included for free, a tax write off, partnering with two of the brightest minds in skincare, and your own business that provides freedom, flexibility and unlimited income potential. A turn key business. A business in a box. Yes, it’s that simple!
So if you are tired of the status quo in the corporate world, then maybe now is the time to do a little investigating. Who knows? Even if all you’re looking for is a shameless secret shoe fund, it could change your life!

If you think adding an extra layer of makeup will make you look extra desirable, you might want to think again.
A study published in the Quarterly Journal of Experimental Psychology found that women who decide to wear a “full face” of makeup to make themselves more attractive might be achieving just the opposite result.
Researchers at Bangor University and Aberdeen University in the United Kingdom gave 44 women “a range of best-selling” foundation, lipstick, blush and mascara products and told them to put on makeup like they were preparing for a night on the town. The women were photographed with freshly scrubbed faces and also after they had put on makeup. The researchers then altered the photographs so they had 21 images of the women wearing various amounts of makeup. They showed the altered images to 44 Bangor University students, who were instructed to select the photo they thought was most attractive, the photo they thought women would like best and the photo men would like best.
It turns out that women and men alike favored the images of the models wearing 40% less makeup than they initially put on. Another intriguing finding: each participant assumed men would like the models with more makeup on than the women would, but in reality the women were the ones who liked the images of the models wearing slightly more makeup.
The researchers said the results “suggest that women are likely wearing cosmetics to appeal to the mistaken preferences of others.”
We all have the desire to be desirable, but instead of layering on the makeup, our focus should be on achieving a healthy, natural complexion. The “foundation” for great skin starts with the right skincare products to address your skin concerns. By identifying your primary skin concerns and incorporating clinically proven skincare products and healthy habits into your daily routine, you can feel confident with “less” face and look as good as you feel today and every day.

Without making a sound, your skin says a lot about you.
Across all cultures, clear, radiant skin is viewed as a reflection of health and well-being. This perceived connection between appearance and health means that your skin is one of your best—or worst—marketing tools, sending a message to every person you meet.
When skin concerns go unaddressed, your skin can become an unreliable source, providing faulty information and mixed messages to the outside world.
For instance, if your complexion appears flushed or blotchy, it could lead people to mistakenly assume that you are drinking too much alcohol. If you have visible lip lines, people may believe you are a smoker. If you have frown lines etched between your eyebrows, you could give the impression of being angry or sad, when you’re actually feeling just the opposite.
Fortunately, uncrossing the signals is easier than you may think. It all boils down to understanding your unique skin concerns and responding accordingly. The biggest mistake most people make is not addressing the most significant issues first. We call this “triaging”—prioritizing issues in order to treat the most urgent problem first. For example, if you have sensitive skin but focus on treating lines and wrinkles first, you’ll never be happy with the results. And what’s more, focusing on aging before getting redness under control will only further inflame the sensitivity you already have.
Whether your skin concerns are related to aging, sun damage, blemishes or sensitivity, by making wise daily choices, you can set the record straight and feel confident in your skin. Today and always. Rodan+Fields – The best recommended skincare without a doctors appointment.
