I am often asked how I found Demarle at Home and I sometimes hesitate to say. I discovered the Demarle opportunity on the Internet on a message board. (The message boards were for a well known company focused on helping people with healthy eating, exercising, and weight loss ideas.) The last thing I was looking for was a job, or even new friends. However, to make a long story short, I did make a friend and over time (thankfully) she shared the Demarle at Home opportunity with me.
Introduction to Demarle at Home
In the beginning, I wasn’t sure I wanted to do a direct sales business. My background was in teaching, but I had mostly spent the last ten years as a stay home mom. I really could not picture myself out selling a product and initially, although I asked lots of questions, I decided it was not for me. However, as hard as I tried, I could not get Demarle out of my head. When my friend told me that Demarle was the maker of the Silpat®, I decided to really consider becoming a representative. After speaking with my husband, we both decided that the price of the kit was definitely an incredibly reasonable cost to start your own business.
My Passion for the Flexipan®
At this point in time, several years after joining the company, I can honestly say that I cannot live without Demarle. My first reason is that I love the products and use them every single day! Whether its breakfast for the kids in the Demarle Différence® Cookware, grilled cheese on the Silpat®, or a whole dinner made with a combination of all of the products, you will always find Demarle products in my sink or on the counter drying.
Another reason I cannot live without Demarle is that I love my job! Every time I work, I get to go to a party, show people an incredible product, and make money. Who could ask for more?
Travel & Friendships
I have made friends in this business that I consider friends for life. Hostesses and customers have become special friends, as have the other representative I met on incentive trips and at conventions. Whether we are taking over a B&B in Georgia for Roundtable Meetings, touring Paris, France on the first incentive trip, or just hanging out in Houston at convention, we always have the best time and Demarle gives us a first class experience!
Benefits of Demarle at Home
What I consider the best benefit of being a Demarle at Home rep is the sense of satisfaction I get from being able to supplement our family income, while at the same time considering myself a full time stay at home mom. I can help in my kids’ classrooms, attend my Bible study, drive my kids to their sporting events, and at the same time earn the type of income that would typically require hours and hours of working away from my family.
I am truly a different person than I was before I became a Demarle at Home representative. I was told once by a friend that every woman should have her own business at some point in her life. I now know this to be true. From friendship to leadership, running a demonstration to running a business, I have grown both personally and professionally in more ways than I can count and have been blessed to have had this experience.
