My Summer with Thirty-One!!!

Becoming a Thirty-One Consultant was one of the best decisions I've ever made! I do Scentsy (to support my Scentsy habit), and can see how a direct selling opportunity can really benefit me and my family. While I love Scentsy and believe in the value of the product, for me it just isn't a huge financial help. Yes, I support my habit, and yes I sometimes have a little extra, but that is where it ends. Thirty-One is a completely different business plan though and I believe the opportunity is much bigger than Scentsy. I don't think I'm going to get rich quick, nor do I believe overnight I will see a difference in my bank account, but it has been financially beneficial. Financial benefits are not what really makes it one of the best decisions I've made though. It is a faith based company named for Proverbs 31 and the company motto is Celebrate, Encourage, and Reward. I love that we pray at Celebrate & Connect meetings and do devotionals. I love that I have met an awesome group of women I would have never otherwise come into contact with and had the opportunity to get to know them. I love that it allows me some me time, but also that I can have another way to share my faith. On a whole notha level, I love the products!!! I'm what I refer to as a "bagaholic"...yes, it's a very technical term. Some of you may be scratching your heads, others are nodding them :). I got tired of my bags from anywhere I bought them only lasting one season, or breaking after 6 weeks. At first I wasn't sure how I would use some of the Thirty-One products, but the more time I spent looking at the catalog, or actually getting my hands on the products the more uses I came up with for all of them. I love pretty things, but for me I need something that is durable and functional. Thirty-One bags, totes, and organizing solutions meet all of my needs! Whether I'm carrying around an inside out bag with all me and my kids things, the easy breezy tote headed to the pool, or my kids are pulling themselves around in a large utility tote making car noises I'm set! Thirty-One has brought so much into my life, and I'm loving it! If you want more information on the products, the business opportunity, or partying with Thirty-One just let me know! https://www.mythirtyone.com/DawnG/
