Extra! Extra! Extended through October 31st!

Friday, September 25th, 2009 | Author: Barb

Okay, now I know I’m always blogging about Watkins – it’s true. I believe in the company and I believe in The Summit Group, which operates the sales force. The Summit Group is making a tremendous offer to those who have been thinking about joining – it’s the cherry on the sundae – an exciting FREE training program. This program is usually offered for $139 – but if you join in October – it’s FREE. I’ll say it again, if you join Watkins during October, you’ll get all of the usual benefits of being an associate, and all the free training and support our team offers. But even better, right now you can get our $139 set of training CDs from our recent conference for free (you just pay $9.95 for shipping and handling). It’s almost eight hours of extra training you can listen to in your car, at home, on your computer, or transfer to your MP3 player. This can help you earn income with our team faster than ever before, especially since we’re currently in our most productive time of year. Between your membership ($39.95, Club Watkins!)  and the training set, you get almost $180 value for less than $50. Would you like me to help you get started?

I’ve been using all the products from the Seasonal Assortment – they’re excellent! You’ve read about the pumpkin butter, the gift sets, lip tints – everything – and you can join the club before the holidays – training thrown in for free.

Now you see it – now you don’t

Sunday, September 20th, 2009 | Author: Barb

I know I’ve mentioned before that my husband Bob is a cancer survivor. Well, one of the medications he was on for quite a while was Coumadin, a blood thinner. One of the side effects of this drug is that you bruise so easily, his arms are always covered with these horrible blood spots – sometimes quite large, and if you accidently hit them, he bleeds.

Well, he decided to try Watkins Petro-Carbon Salve on them to see if just dabbing it on helped. Guess what? They’re gone! It took about a week, but his arms look magnificent now! It’s really a great thing to see my husband’s confidence come back when wearing short sleeves – he doesn’t look like a big bruise anymore.

Watkins Petro Carbon Salve comes in two sizes, one for your bathroom and one you can keep in your pocket. Try the link on the right, “Buy Watkins” and give it a try, I’m glad I have it!

G-20

Saturday, September 19th, 2009 | Author: Barb

I don’t really know too much about the G20, however you look at it though, I live north of Pittsburgh where the G-20 will be next week. I know there are many good things and many bad things that come from this event. I only recently learned that 14 cities turned down the opportunity to host – but Pittsburgh jumped at it.

One of the events this year will be a dinner for the 20 world leaders and their spouses at Phipps Conservatory. Phipps Conservatory is one of the most green botanical gardens in the world. Their display of over 19 indoor and outdoor gardens and ecological environments is second to none. They take living naturally, and eco-friendly to a new level.

I had the privelege of volunteering there this past Friday, to wipe down railings, brick walls, signs, benches and light fixtures. You can’t imagine  the beauty in that place. I urge you to click the link on the right and at least visit their website.

I am so inspired by their pledge to sustainability and green living. Every product we used to clean with was green, and environmentally friendly. every utensil in the cafe, all the plates, glasses – compostable.

I can make a difference with Watkins, you can make a difference. Make the pledge for sustainability and buy products that will save our environment. It doesn’t matter what else the world leaders will talk about at the G20 – as long as well all buy into a greener way of life!

Miss Lippy!

Friday, September 11th, 2009 | Author: Barb

Remember that character from Billy Madison, Miss Lippy? I loved that scene where all the little kids are taking a nap and Miss Lippy is eating paste… too funny! Anyway – I’m not a lipstick person. I never have been. I have pretty thin lips and when I put it on – it just looks so foreign. Thick, pasty – you get it on your teeth, it stains mugs, glasses – I end up with it everywhere!! Well, when we got our Seasonal Assortment last month, there was a “Lip Tint Trio” included, perfect for gift giving! I thought, “there’s a great gift for my niece!” What is really nice about it is there are three shades, now usually if I have to – I’m attracted to the peaches, browns – warm colors.

Well, I couldn’t resist – I broke open the pack. Took the lid off “Berry Charming“. Gave it a sniff. Mmmm. Nice. Okay, I’ll try it, I’ve opened the pack – taken off the lid – can’t possibly give it as a gift now. That stuff is great! There’s a nice touch of mint that makes your lips tingle! And, it’s almost transparent – just a touch of color. Not garish, or thick – really nice.

Okay, it’s all mine now – I’ve used all three colors and I’m not giving this set to anyone. I will however, buy new sets for gifts. It’s the perfect stocking stuffer, it’s all natural – no toxins, no chemicals and affordable – three full tubes for $ 12.99, that’s not even one tube at Macy’s! Check it out for yourself – click the “Buy Watkins” link at the right, we’re associate #383996. Oh, and if you want to shop at 25% discount – click on the “liptintSell Watkins” link at the right and join the club!

Labor Day!

Labor Day – a day supposedly set aside for honoring the millions of people who have fought for labor unions and trades throughout the country. Also, the end of summer, the real beginning of NFL Football and time to start thinking about the Holidays.

 With the holidays coming up there are so many reasons to “Buy Watkins” – there are great sets of personal beauty gifts; Kitchen gifts; Home gifts; Spice gifts – all perfect for anyone on your list. Then, there are also so many different baking ingredients and mixes to make sure that the Holidays are filled with the  smells and tastes that bring back so many memories. Good family memories.

First – Happy Labor Day! Second – I don’t want to Labor anymore… I’m focused on building my Watkins business so next Labor Day I can be on vacation. Care to join me? All it takes to find out more is click on the “Sell Watkins” link to the right. I’m Independent Associate #383996 – what number will you be?
