Jack & Jody Lundie   Lake Madison, SD For years, the center of our LIFE was our retail business. We were living within the guidelines of mall hours…to translate…60 hours a week! After breaking loose from the captivity of retail hours and the stress of being business owners, WE TRIED EVERYTHING! We have owned a wholesale/retail business, we worked with several direct sales companies, selling everything from advertising, to commercial ovens, to cell phones, personalized children’s books, to name a few. We even ventured into several MLM companies. Some business ventures were successful…many were not. You name it and we tried it until we were broke and almost broken! Even with all our hard work, we ended up VERY CLOSE TO BANKRUPTCY! In November of 2000, we decided it was TIME FOR A BETTER LIFE! We found a business that was truly different! A business where we could actually control our income. A business where the efforts we put in today, will not only pay us today but will create a reliable secure income for the future! After working just a few months, we knew we had made the right decision! We found that people really were interested in what we had to offer. In fact, we created a 3500 customer base which now has generated us over a million dollars in income. Now, thanks to the Internet and a system that provides online web casts, working from home just became much easier! Hard work and determination has helped us create a six-figure income every year for the last 5 years. However, what is wonderful is being able to set our own schedule. We do not miss our son’s sporting events because of a JOB. We are able to take several vacations each year, which is something that was not possible in the past. We have now enjoyed several Caribbean cruises and we have visited Australia, Africa, and Banff Canada where our boys enjoyed snowboarding. We really do have a better life! Life is good! Our income now gives us choices! Cherry Luitjens   Custer, SD As a retired schoolteacher, my retirement check is definitely not enough to get out of debt and that was my number one goal for my business. I had too many loans and high credit card debt. I was beginning to think there was no way out. Then I found an ethical company with high standards and a proven 20-year track record. Working with a reputable company means no hype, no phoniness, no selling and no risk. I work with a company that truly believes in helping people reach their goals, whether the goals are to supplement an income, replace an income, or become debt free. I have always thought it would be so great to be able to bless others, my friends, family and especially my granddaughters, but when you're in debt, it limits what you can do. Now, because of this wonderful business, I know I will be able to make a difference in other people's lives as well. Now my dreams are on the front burner and ‘debt free’ is back in my vocabulary again. Lance & Renae Luitjens   Rapid City, SD Looking back to four years ago, we were at the point in our lives where we really needed to find a sideline business, even though we actually did not realize it. Maybe it was because we never thought we could find a business that would enable us to chip away at our debt and become debt free. We think many people are just like us. We were both South Dakota teachers, so we know first hand how there is a need for so many people, especially teachers to have a supplemental income. For teachers in South Dakota this is especially true since they are among the lowest paid teachers in the nation and they have the highest average credit card debt. Our second daughter was just ten days old when someone introduced us to some information that laid out an opportunity for anyone to work from home in the Health and Wellness industry. At the time this information was introduced to us, we felt like we wanted Renae to stay at home with our girls. It was a hard decision. Renae will never forget the day she made the decision. She sat on our couch realizing the opportunity that had been presented to her and the alternatives. We could both continue to work full-time, sending our kids to daycare, and not having any extra money or make a change. She realized that nobody was going to give us a great life on a silver platter. Renae felt she had to do something about it and this looked like it could be a natural fit. And it has been. The success comes from Renae’s level of belief and desire to succeed while helping others. In just a short period, we have built a substantial business and have reached our goal of having Renae stay home with our girls. Lance is currently the vice principal of a middle school and a varsity basketball coach joining Renae in the business when he can. It’s fun to work together! For the past 4 years, we have been blessed to have one parent at home with our two daughters, substantially lower our debt and live a life we never thought possible. Someone gave us hope through using this system and it has been so exciting we just want to share with everyone!!! And we are doing just that!! Renae shares, "I was a Mommy on a Mission to change my life and want that for others. My business has actually made me become a better wife, mother, and friend!" Work like you don't need the money, love like you've never been hurt, and dance like nobody is watching! Dr. Tim & Christie Graupmann   Grand Rapids, MN As a successful Chiropractor and a stay-at-home mom, Tim & Christie Graupmann seemed to have the world by the tail. “We had a beautiful home, lived a very comfortable lifestyle and could afford many of the nice things in life. Most people thought we had it made. The one thing we never had was much quality time together.” Tim worked 5 ½ days a week at his Chiropractic clinic and Christie was busy at home with their 6 kids. Life threw them a curve when Tim fell 30 feet from their home’s roof. He shattered his leg and landed with his head less than one foot from the concrete. Thankfully, he has made a full recovery, but Tim says, “That was enough to shake us up and realize that even when you’re self-employed, there is no such thing as job security.” “It was then we realized that we needed a Plan B. Today our Plan B income is surpassing the Chiropractic income. Plus it gives us the freedom to spend time together as a family whenever we choose. I have cut back to working only 3 ½ days per week as a Chiropractor. Before, when I took time out of the office, our income stopped. Now, even though I take more time off, our income continues to grow. It doesn’t get any better than this!” Christie enjoys being able to contribute significantly to the family’s income by working from home around her family’s busy schedule. “It’s great when you get to help people every day, you can truly put your family first, and you can make a terrific income to boot. When you love what you do, you never work a day in your life.” Kurt Venekamp   Fort Collins, CO When I got out of college in 1981, it didn’t take me very long to figure out that very few people will ever make it big working for someone else. I have been self-employed for more than two decades and have had some great successes and some great failures along the way. I was in the restaurant business for 12 years, and if I had stayed another year, I probably would have gone through bankruptcy. I am excited that we finally found this great opportunity. I have been involved with this business since March 2004 and it provides everything that I was looking for. In the first 18 months with this business, I have made over $70,000 on a part time basis. Jerry & Gloria Jenssen Jerry & Gloria had been successful in the business arena. I was a self-employed business man most of my adult life. Gloria and I have owned all types of businesses and we thought we were living the good life, until our kids were gone from home and we discovered that our businesses actually owned us. So about six years ago we decided to sell out and get our lives back. We were “fed up” with retail and the lack of freedom it allowed us. Gloria had been a “Stay-at-Home-Mom” while the kids were young and she helped in the businesses when she could. I am often asked if my wife had a “job”, well with 5 children and helping me, what do you think? She had the most important job in the World! However, the Social Security System doesn’t see it that way so we had some concerns in that area. We were 54 years old when I started looking for something else to do. I knew a lot about what I didn’t want to do, but I didn’t have a clue about what I did want to do. I was not interested in finding a “J-O-B”, but rather something that would revive my competitive juices and give me “Purpose”! When I found this opportunity I knew almost instantly that if what I saw and heard was the truth---I was done looking!! Well it was the truth because with this Company, “The truth is good enough!” and I’ve never looked back! It has been so rewarding and fulfilling to have found something that lets you enjoy your life and family. We have found what most people spend their whole life looking for and never come close to finding. We didn’t find this opportunity until we were 57 years young, but we are so thankful to have finally found it. Gloria and I see a good life about to turn into a great life.
