Brilliant Face Forever by Aromama

I was talking to a group of people about fundraising with Tupperware. Their concern was how a Tupperware Rep will make margins (that’s the word they used) and how that would look bad on the organization. But for them it was ok for the gift card fundraising.

I’ve been thinking: What’s the difference?

Any representative from any fundraising company will have “margins” thru fundraising that would involve any products. Look at ALS ice bucket challenge. According to some source, only 7% (approximately) goes to research and rest goes to other stuff including paying salaries. And it doesn’t even involve products.

At Tupperware, the beneficiary will receive 40% of product sales from the fundraising catalog. The representative will receive 25% of what’s left of the sales. So if I sell $100 in the fundraising, the beneficiary receives $40 ($100*40%=$40). I, as a commission, receive $15 (($100-$40)*25%=$15).

When I sell $100 worth of Tupperware from the regular catalog, I receive 25% commission. That’s $25. So that means I’m giving up $10 of commission to worthy cause if I sell something from fundraising catalog. I think that’s pretty generous.

Then you may ask “but you’re still making profit of off it.” This may sound true, but I should be paxlovid cost no insurance compensated for time spent (or will be spending) for collecting orders, making sure that all the products are ordered, sorted, and delivered in addition to all the aftercare of Tupperware – lifetime guarantee.

For that organization, I’ve spent countless hours of volunteer time for the last 3 years. Am I negative about that? No. I enjoy what I do and glad to do it because I can be of a help to a great organization. Am I disappointed in their decision? Yes. I offered my service and they declined due to what people may perceive the fundraising opportunity.

At lease I can say this was an interesting learning experience of how a board would make a decision based on assumed perception of the miner population in the organization.

I’m off to help some other people, then!

We were lucky enough to be introduced to Young Living as the first essential oil company.

I was interested in aromatherapy before even knowing what essential oils were and what they do.  When we were pregnant with our first child 8 years ago, another expectant mom introduced us to the world essential oils and Young Living.  She invited us to her home party, and that’s where we saw the awesome power of essential oils and decided to give it a try.  Our first purchase was Valor and NingXia Red so that we’ll be ready to become parents.  We loved the experience with the oils and NingXia Red, we decided to sign up as a Distributor so we can get 24% discount and try more oils.  This is our first step to building our Young Living business but in honest truth, we weren’t going to start our business… we just wanted to get the DISCOUNT.

Fast forward to now.  There are so many companies that sell essential oils.  Some company claims that their oils are as good or even better than Young Living’s.  Others claims that theirs are tested with GC (gas chromatograph: test to break down the oil to molecule level and identifies constituencies and purities along with contaminants). There are a few questions before I determine that they are worthy of using besides YLEO (will never happen in my humble opinion):

• Do you know where your oils are coming from?
• How long is the company actually have been in business for?
• Do they have knowledge of the essential oils and how did they acquired it?
• Do they have their own farms?  If so, where?
• Do people who use the company’s oil can go to the farms and be a part of growing the plants?
• Do they have distilleries?
• Is your CEO/founder get dirty in the dirt with employees and consumers?

It really makes me feel sad for those people who use other company’s oils and say that their kids are sick.  Unfortunately, I’ve seen/heard too many of that.  All I can say is  Gölcük paxlovid prescription locator TRY YLEO AND YOU’LL SEE THE DIFFERENCE.  They haven’t failed us.

Contact us if you have any more questions why we’ve decided to go with Young Living or you want to start or try YLEO.

Oh! It’s so nice to be back on my website!

If you’ve been here before, you may be wondering what I have been up to and what had happened to my old site.

Since my last entry, we found we were pregnant, and had a beautiful healthy baby boy back in October, 2013.

As to our old site, I’m not quite sure. When I was ready to come back and visited it, all I saw was a white page. No. Nothing. Nada. So I kind of freaked out, and decided to change my web host. So here we are. Back at again but brand new!

Honestly, I wanted to make it brand new last year. It just never happened, so all I can say about it is it’s all in God’s plan.

So keep checking here and contact me if you have any questions!

Soooo good to be back!

Love,
Aromama
