Flash Back Friday: Money Money Money Monneyyy... MONNNEEEEYYYY

You're singing that song in your head aren't you? I am. I'm love it!

So let me just break it down for you a little bit here.

· ACN endorsed by “The Donald”
· Featured on Celebrity Apprentice and again in March 2011
· Famous for their own branded product, The Video Phone/Digital Phone Service
· Home-based business

· Overall, the business concept is…. Genius.


So, some of you may be thinking to yourself, hmmm, sounds interesting. That’s what I thought too just 4 short months ago! I can remember vividly when this same business was introduced to us 7 years ago. At that time, the company was simply a long distance provider…not very enticing to us at the time, not to mention it was one of those types of businesses. And, the mortgage industry was booming.

So, we went about our way and that was that, until about 4 months ago.
As many of you may know, the reason why we moved to Texas is because Jake was born and raised here and he’s always wanted to come back. I was NOT thrilled about leaving. As our last year in Utah came to a close, preparation for moving became a reality. Instead of feeling nervous, I actually started to get excited, excited for a new place, the heat, the beach close by, family, and our new business.

We purchased an Allstate Insurance Agency and love it. Well, most of it anyway except for the normal reasons to hate small business ownership like overhead, employee drama, etc. So, we were just minding our own business until one day out of the blue our cousin’s, husband’s, sister’s, husband (for real) showed up at our office one afternoon. Jeff and his buddy Craig (who is a Regional Vice President with the company) came in to show us the business opportunity. Now, some of you may know me well enough to know that I tend to speak FIRMLY with my eyes and my husband got one of those “Nope, we’re not interested” kind of look from me, and his response was, “ya I know, don’t worry” kind of look.

With some initial reluctance we listened to the opportunity and looking back now, I am really glad we had an open mind. I certainly don’t consider ourselves naïve, and after weighing the information, it just made too much sense to start this new venture. It has truly been so much fun! Most recently in September, we had the opportunity to travel to North Carolina. Can I say Beautiful btw! The trip was amazing and you will see some fun pictures below from our weekend trip to Charlotte. So much fun, training, and motivation! Bottom line, we were looking for some change in our lives, so we needed to start by... you guessed it, changing! Seems logical, right? Well, there's ALOT more to this but I can only say so much through a social network site. You know, rules.

Anyway, want in on this business? Let me know, I can get you some more information on it. Don't tell me you still want to be doing what your doing years from now, do you? Is it going to get better for you? Probably not.

It's ok, don’t be shy.

Poor Charlotte, she was probably thinking in her head "I don't want another person googling and touching me." She was the most popular girl. "I'm gonna be the most popular girl." - Name that movie...
