Sunshine, laughter and a focus on success

Back in 1990 I was working as a tax advisor. My husband and I had three children to bring up. They were in school but of course wanted to take extra lessons: English, piano and trumpet, etc. Therefore we needed extra income.

Times were tough and we had financial problems, so I was continuously looking for an opportunity that would allow me to pay for my children’s extracurricular activities and other things they wanted and we couldn’t afford.

That’s how I discovered multilevel marketing (MLM). I bought a book by two American writers about MLM. I learned many things about the system and paid special attention to what kind of criteria you should consider before you commit yourself to a MLM company. It should have a strong capital base and sell its own products, and offer excellent quality at an affordable price; moreover, it should have a progressive commission system.

Starting in Autumn 1990 I joined one MLM after another in Hungary. Somehow, though, after reading their success plans and testing their products I was always dissatisfied with something – the quality, the price or the commission system. Oriflame was the 18th MLM I joined. After reading the Oriflame Success Plan and testing the products I knew I’d finally found what I was looking for, that I was in the right place – the best place I’d ever been.

In the meantime, Oriflame has become my job, my hobby, my passion, my life. Plus I still have plenty of plans. Professionally, my short-term goal is to reach Executive Director level in 2006; within three or four years I want to be a Senior Executive. Personally, I want to learn how to swim, and I want to learn English!
