JANUARY FEATURED WAHM
This month’s Featured Wahm is Adriana, who has a successful TriVita business. See what she has to say about this opportunity and decide whether it’s right for you.
How long have you been with TriVita and what made you decide to join?
I joined TriVita in 2009. My husband and I wanted to be free to travel whenever we wanted, so a regular job was out of the question. I was really glad to hear about, and thoroughly study, the TriVita opportunity when an online friend, Tula, told me about it. It didn't take me long to see that this was a very viable, lucrative, and trustworthy opportunity, with a different affiliate angle. Co-Operative Marketing is what makes TriVita a cut above other MLM and Network Marketing opps out there. I had tried a bunch of those as well.... never got very far with any of them.
When I looked at the company history - impeccable; years in business - 10+ yrs; financial stability - debt free, growing, and expanding constantly; compensation plan - viable and fair; CEO - honest, caring, experienced, spiritual, and very giving.....I was fully impressed and couldn't wait to sign up. So far, I've never regretted that decision.
Tell us a little about the company and what your job consists of:
TriVita was started about 11 years ago by Michael Ellison and is based in Scottsdale, Arizona. One thing that I really like and respect about this company is that its founder is a very caring, spiritual man. He had a health crisis many years ago, and after healing himself, decided to start this health and wellness company in order to help others. Now, TriVita is not only helping millions of people to regain their health and well-being, but it also gives back to the community in many different ways: shelters for battered women in Arizona, water wells for villages in Africa, and 19 other countries, through "Water For Life" administered by Life Outreach International ( founded by a Christian family of James Robison and his wife, who also happen to be business affiliates of TriVita), giving to the Red Cross, PREHAB, and many others, through "The House of Giving" that the CEO established.
I am an independent Affiliate Member which means I work for myself, at my own pace and my own hours. No minimum sales or quotas. No boss to answer to, no time cards to fill in, no one telling me what to do. It's total freedom and I love it!!
How many hours do you work per week, on average, including all aspects of the job:
I am still working this as a part-time business and dedicate, on average, 10 hrs per week. This includes sending and answering emails from my customers and prospects, attending webinars and telephone conferences.
What is the Company Payment Plan/Incentive Program & your personal average weekly income:
TriVita believes sharing wellness with others should be handsomely rewarded. That’s why they offer us 5 ways to earn compensation at the level and pace we desire. They also offer Team Building bonuses that pay generous rewards for helping new Affiliate Members grow their business. As we progress, we can earn bonuses that correspond with our level of advancement. We not only earn compensation, but also recognition as a leader in TriVita.
In addition to the higher income advantages, we also receive a broad range of benefits, including travel award funds, increased commissions, special event discounts and much more.
Compensation payouts are made weekly or monthly, via Direct Deposit or the TriVita Debit Card.
What is your favorite part of the job?
No cold calling and no selling. With my laptop, I can work form anywhere. Since the customers order directly from the company I don't need to stock products or make deliveries.
How about the most challenging part of the job?
Since my business is growing slowly on its own, I feel like I should be doing more. I am committed to putting in more hours and start contacting some of my customers, trying to convince them to become affiliates themselves.
Why should other moms consider looking into working for this company?
I would ask anyone out there looking for a business if they know of other companies that let us literally purchase a business affiliate? Not only can we purchase customers, but we can now purchase affiliates! No more recruiting!
You can enroll as an affiliate with...
1. No fees or one-time startup costs
2. Place 1 $40 bottle of Nopalea on monthly auto ship (no charge until it is shipped in 30 days)
3. 60-day, no questions asked, money back guarantee
So it costs you nothing to enroll as an affiliate.
See what I mean by ZERO RISK?

FEATURED ARTICLE OF THE MONTH
With the New Year starting, what better topic than goals and aspirations? The following article talks about setting goals not just in our businesses, but in every area of our lives.
Set Goals, Reach Goals
By Arlene Pellicane
When was the last time you wrote down goals? Maybe you’ve gotten discouraged in the past. You barely have time to read your mail, let alone accomplish new goals. But what if you knew you would succeed? Would it be a worthwhile endeavor to lose 20 pounds, learn a new skill, or travel to a new country?
Here are four keys to setting goals and actually reaching them:
1. Set aside a special time every year to write down your goals. Make this a tradition or else you will get too busy. Try writing your goals between Christmas and December 31, so you can share them with your family on January 1. Wouldn’t it be wonderful for your children to grow up hearing about your goals and aspirations? What an impression it will make on them to watch you achieve your goals each year.
If the holidays are too busy, try goal setting in August before the school year begins or select another date. The key is consistency. Have the same day set aside for goal setting each year. That day will also become a celebration for the goals achieved the previous year.
2. Write sensible, well balanced goals. If you don’t exercise much, the Boston marathon isn’t a very smart goal. But working out five days a week sure is! Try writing one goal for each of the following areas: spiritual, family, business, financial and personal.
3. Put your goals where you will see them often. If you write goals and then put them away for the rest of the year, chances are you won’t do much with them. But if you tape them on your bathroom mirror, read them every night before you go to bed, or have them in your daily calendar, you’ll be more apt to achieve them.
4. Break down your goals in doable steps. Let’s use the example of working out five days a week. If you’ve never exercised before, five times a week will seem impossible. So start with working out every Wednesday for a month. After you get used to that, add Fridays. As you create a new normal for your exercise regimen, you’ll be able to add more workouts with greater ease.
Goal setting is a wonderful opportunity to push yourself to the next level. No one wants to die with their music inside. Set goals and reach them. You will be an inspiration to your family and so many others!
Today’s Action Step: When will you write down your goals? Set a specific date, time and location.
