How to keep a busy life organized?

August 5, 2017 By Vanessa Pronge Leave a Comment

The Busy Life:

My husband and I love to travel and spend what little leisurely time we have tending to our home and garden. We are both very busy folks! Always up to something and always going here or there. So we appreciate the things that help make our busy lives so much easier. That’s where 31 gifts come in…

You can organize everything in your home with this stuff! From your home office to kitchen to bathrooms and bedrooms, even closets and garage. Especially when you’re traveling! they help keep everything organized with stylish handbags, pack packs and totes for all your travel gear. These products are high quality, easy to clean, durable and in very attractive colors and patterns the best part is the personalization! You can get fun and creative with various fonts and thread colors to choose from! Just check out my website right here!

Because I run multiple businesses, I have to be very organized. To do this successfully I rely on various 31 products to help me stay on top of everything and keep everything in it’s place.

Here are just a few examples of how I use my 31 Gifts:

This Large Utility Tote

Oh this bad boy was my 1st ever purchase as a brand new Thirty One Gifts Customer a few years back. I 1st started using it to tote my event planning supplies for Norwex. Then for Camping supplies and ultimately for our beach gear. They were so handy to have around, I had to go out and purchase more of these babies!

Now I have one of these for each one of my Direct Sales Businesses. It’s so easy to stow everything I need to do a vendor event or a home party in one bag. So depending on what I’m showing at any particular time, it’s convenient to just grab the appropriate bag and go! It’s perfect because everything fits in one place!! Like these two…

Pocket-A-Tote is a fun and easy way to store your small items like mini catalogs, pens or business cards. I love that it’s clear for advertising purposes. They make it easy to just reach in and grab what ever you need when ever you need it with out having to rummage through all your supplies. I can’t tell you the number of times I’ve been approached as I’ve made my way to my car after an event by potential customers asking for brochures or business cards. I make it a point to always get their information too for following up in a few days. You know? In case I don’t hear back from them. Also the Clear Cover Top-A-Tote’s are great for keeping everything dry and dust free and I can easily see what’s in the bag in case I need to stock up on anything.

What’s with all the Facebook Parties?

August 1, 2017 By Vanessa Pronge Leave a Comment

If you’re in Direct Sales, Facebook Parties is the way to go!

Why Facebook Parties?

Well there are several reasons why!

For starters:

You the consultant, your hostess and your guests don’t have to leave your house!
Host’s don’t need to clean their homes before anyone arrives.
Guest will be on Facebook anyway!
Meet your hostess’s guests where they are (Facebook!)
There is no need to wear a bra
Nor is there a need for a baby sitter
No One needs to spend $$ on refreshments
Play online with your friends
There’s no need to shower
Out of state friends and family can attend!!
No need to do your hair or make up.
Wear your PJ’s if you want.
It’s fun!!
Convenient is the key word here.
Hostess can earn all kinds of FREE STUFF!!

Did I forget to mention it’s super easy!!

When you know what you’re doing, that is! Guess who was completely LOST?? I have to admit it took me THE longest time to master Facebook parties. I just didn’t get the logistics of the whole thing. Zero strategy and zero organization were my biggest culprits. Lucky for me I somehow stumbled upon this group on Facebook. How did I end up there? NO idea! Maybe someone added me, if so thank you!! Or perhaps I saw an ad on the Facebook Side Bar?? Who knows??? But boy I sure am glad I found the amazing and talented Brenda Ster. She’s the genius behind this whole Facebook Party Business. Look up the Socialite Suite on Facebook and her Social Media for Direct Sellers website www.SassySuite.com.

Epic Trainings!

Brenda offers not just the ultimate in Epic Facebook Party training. But everything you would need to know for running your own Direct Sales Business like a real business! Even some things you didn’t know you needed!! Because so very few of us have any formal training on running a business, let alone branding and marketing. Or even putting together a Blog!! This lady teaches us everything!! AND at affordable prices too… To so many of us she’s the upline, sideline and downline we so desperately needed.

PostMyParty

Are you in Direct Sales and want to host your own FB Parties? Then you will need this!! The one tool I found to be most useful when hosting FB Parties is a posting app. There are many of them out on the Market. Personally I prefer to use PostMyParty. Only because I’m able to create templates I can then copy and edit to suite any occasion. Templates are shareable with my team mates, I can teach them how to edit each post with their very own branding. It’s super easy and makes Partying on Facebook super fun and stress free. So you’re not scrambling to find images or trying to think up what to post next in the middle of a live Facebook party. Because everything is right there for you on and easy to edit template. Easy Peasy!! Get it, you must!! (ala Yoda) 😉

Plexus Slim helps you lose weight, balance your blood sugar, lipid levels and cholesterol all of which help you get the healthiest you’ve ever been!

What’s so great about our new Plexus Slim? It is clinically proven to help you lose weight!

Just look at t h is album full of before and after pics.

The participants in the weight loss study as mentioned above lost an average of 7.21 lbs in just eight weeks. That’s pretty incredible right? What’s more you have nothing to lose when you order your own Plexus products because they come with a 60 day money back guarantee, although I have to say, that’s less then a 1% return rate. Because this stuff really works!

I know it works because I’ve tried them myself. So not only have they helped me with my own weight loss challenge and health issues but it’s helped with my over mood and outlook on life. They’ve also helped my mom after she suffered a stroke. Thank heavens for Plexus! She’s back on her feet again and running around as if nothing ever happened. I personally call this stuff our very own fountain of youth. Seriously I’ve been told I look like I’m aging backwards and it sure does feel like it!!

This was me only a few months after starting Plexus. It didn’t take long for me to see the results. A total of 15 lbs down in a reasonable amount of time. I’m not going to lie to you, I did have to check how I was eating, Plexus gave me the motivation to cut back on processed foods, my sugar intake and exercise. In fact Plexus gave me the energy to even want to exercise. It used to take all the will I had just to get out the door and give my dog a walk. Now I have energy to spare, and I’m happier, I’m sleeping so much better then I ever have. I could go on and on on the benefits of taking Plexus Supplements. I take just about everything in the catalog! Because it pays of to be an ambassador!

Eco Friendly Cleaning with Norwex

July 20, 2017 By Vanessa Pronge Leave a Comment

Norwex Products Changed Everything!!

Did you know you could clean up to 90% of your home with just WATER and some incredible Norwex Products??! Amazing right? That’s right just water!! And a really cool tool from Norwex. That tool is a unique microfiber cloth unlike any other microfiber out there! It’s not only over 300 times finer than regular microfiber but it also has micro silver embedded right in the fibers. Silver is a natural anti microbial so it helps deter bacterial growth within the cloth. If you’re like me and hate to do laundry then this is right up your alley! Because of it’s self sanitizing ability you don’t have to wash it as often as you do a regular cotton cloth. It will take a lot longer for it to get stinky.

$$$SAVE$$$

Plus think of the savings you’ll get from no longer needing to buy paper towels!! You’ll save even more when you realize how much money Norwex Products can save you. CHACHING!! $$$ SAVE $$$ SAVE $$$ SAVE $$$!! The best part about these cloths is not just that they are antimicrobial with in the cloth but that they are actually effective at picking up 99% of bacteria from surfaces when used according to instructions.

Those instructions are super easy! Just wet the Enviro Cloth, wring it out real good, fold so you have 8 working surfaces. Lay flat on the surface and with a flat open hand to wipe your surface clean. Turn to another square and clean another surface and so on until you’ve gone through all 8 squares. Then rinse under running water (most of the germs will go down the drain along with the water, wring out, then either use again and repeat the process or hang to dry. It takes just 24 hours for the silver to do it’s work while the cloth drys. If there is any little bit of bacteria left behind deep in the fibers the micro silver that’s embedded in the fiber will squelch any bacteria from multiplying. So they just wither away and die naturally.

How to take proper care of your Norwex Products?

How do you care of you Norwex Microfiber? Easy!! If you have a busy home like I do and that enviro cloth is being used all day long every day of the week. Simply put it in the wash with non linty items. Just remember no Chlorine Bleach and no Fabric Softener. It’s safe to put through the dryer or you can hang to dry.

Norwex microfiber is warrantied to work for up to 500 washes or 2 years, which ever comes 1st. After this you’ll want to send your Norwex back to corporate for recycling. Easy Peasy right?! If you have any questions, would like to be added to my e-newsletter or would like to host a show just message me on here and I’d be happy to help!

Host a Show!

Keep in mind I do fast fun and totally fantastic Facebook Parties! As well as in home parties. If you live out of state I’d strongly encrouage you to host a FB show! Other wise a home party would be great, that way you can have a fun night in with your girl friends. Theme parties are all the rage right now so lets talk about this, I’d be thrilled to help you host a show and help you become your friends super hero. They’ll thank you for introducing them to these great products and you’ll reap incredible rewards. Norwex is crazy generous to our party hostesses. Most will earn anywhere between $200 for an average $600 party or up to nearly $600 worth in FREE Norwex Products just for hosting a show with a few of your best friends. Lets talk about this!
