Next business steps...
TLDR: Don't really know yet but here are all of my thoughts so far.
It has been almost a year to the day that Beautycounter closed down due to bankruptcy. And I’m still not back to work because I have felt God lead me to take a break. Never did I think the break would last for a year.
I have been thinking about getting back to some type of business but still don’t feel led in one particular direction. I definitely won’t be getting back on Instagram on the regular. But here on Substack, I love the simplicity of being able to communicate with you without all of the noise of social media.
But in terms of going all in with another network marketing company, I’m not sure. Beautycounter is supposed to come back in the summer and I will probably have a link. Because #nothingisbetterthanskintwin But if they do come back with an opportunity to build a team, I just don’t think I can do it or actively build a team. It was a very messy end that didn’t leave us brand advocates with a proper apology for an ending to a 10-year business. And there still has been very little communication in the past year and it just doesn’t feel like I can trust Beautycounter 2.0 with all of my business eggs in that basket.
As you know I have signed up with Crunchi and have been sharing them for almost a year. I still use them and am very happy with the products. But I’m not sure about building a long-term business with them. I also have been trying out some Arbonne products and honestly, I’m drawn to them for skincare also. Between my Beautycounter products I have left, Crunchi, and Arbonne I grab my Crunchi and Arbonne skincare over Beautycounter. I am starting to try the wellness products from Arbonne too (my husband is obsessed with Fizz).
I’m still in limbo with what I’m doing. I plan on sharing a few more of my favorite skincare and other items from both Arbonne and Crunchi. I am not recruiting any teams, I am not coaching people on how to do a business. I’m just a person sharing what they use, even if they come from a couple of different network marketing companies. Why? Because I still so deeply believe in the products and business of network marketing. I plan on choosing one and planting my flag. But until I do, I’m just going to be sharing products I love and use.
Oh, and one more thing… I do have this idea to make a very easy, simple-to-learn (but scientifically deep) blood sugar guide. I have been learning so much more about health and healing but the one thing I’m BEYOND convinced about is blood sugar balance. Would you be in for this idea??
Blessings and talk soon-
