Beat the U.S. Economic Recession Starting a Part-Time Watkins Business

Credit SqueezeAre you and your family feeling the pinch of the escalating U.S. recession?  If not, you represent the minority, because consumers nationwide are showing signs of being squeezed by the economic crunch.   Who would have thought just 3 years ago that by 2008 we would be paying over $3 per gallon for gasoline month after month, and see the price of everything from eggs and milk to paper goods and beef shoot through the roof?  And if you live in rural America, where the cost of living is often even higher, the income levels are less and the prospects for new part-time or full-time job opportunities run scare to non-existent, chances are you’re feeling the stress greater than the average Joe.

How many nights have you come home from work to find your spouse worried about where the dollars are going to come from to pay overdue bills?  I have friends who live in the country that have a monthly energy bill far greater than my own.  Because they live in a rural area they’re having to drive more miles to and from work, they have 2 or more cars in the family and heat their home with propane, which has shot to $3.00 per gallon also.  Thus, in addition to having an annual gasoline bill of $5,000 to $6,000l, they also have an annual heating bill in the $2,700 to $3,000 range.  These are people with a household income before taxes in the $32,000 to $36,000 range.  They simply can’t make ends meet. 

Close your eyes for a few seconds and fast forward your life 2 years from now.  Keep your eyes closed and say out loud what you see in store for your family if your energy bills don’t go down and the costs of other consumer goods remain inflated?  It’s not a pretty picture is it?  

Chances are you’ve been putting your head in the sand like an ostrich, hoping these things will just magically go away.  Well, unless you’re a magician, a genie or a wizard – the solution to your woes is not going to be magic.   You may be avoiding things now, but deep down inside you know the real answer to your problems is that you just can’t continue sitting still and hoping that your problems will magically go away.  You must take the bull by the horn and do something to avoid a train wreck in your financial and emotional life.  For its inevitiable.  The train wreck is going to occur unless you can either (1) make sufficient reductions of all non-essential items in your budget, or (2) increase your income.

I know that if you’ve read this far, and you closed your eyes and thought about where you will be in two years, you have a question.  And I think I know what your question is, because I bet it’s the same one you have when you think about these issues every day.  It’s “What am I going to do to get myself out of this rut?”  Followed by . . . “I can’t ask my boss for a raise and there’s no jobs to be had around here.”  

Ta-daah!!!  Enter the solution I have for your life.  Why not create your own job?

What’s that you say?  Create my own job.  How do you expect me to do that? 

Well, if you’re serious about turning things around, I mean really turning them around, and you’re willing to put forth an effort and practice it regularly, I can offer an excellent solution for you.  But before I share it with you, close your eyes once again and fast forward your life 2 or 3 years down the road, but his time imagine you have an extra $500 to $1,500 per month coming in every month.  The power for you to do this rests smack-dab between your ears.  That’s right, its all about willpower, self-motivation and belief in yourself.  If you can manage these 3 attributes I can provide you a solution that will put you on the road to turning your financial and emotional life around.

A Super LifestyleThe simple answer and solution I propose to you is to make a leap of faith and start your own  Watkins business.  Think again about what another $500 to $1,500 per month would mean to your life and family?  I’m willing to bet that it’s the difference between a stress-filled life and a carefree lifestyle full of happiness and laughter.  Often times it can be the difference between a bad marriage and a good marriage, the difference between keeping a house and selling a house, between sending your kids to college or sending them to trade school, having a spouse that works or one that stays home with the children or playing golf at the public links versus having your own country club membership.

Why would I recommend a Watkins business?  There are many reasons, but let me share just a few with you now.  The beauty of a Watkins business is that it can be started on a small investment (less than the cost of a meal for 4).  You can built your Watkins business at your own pace, according to your own needs, and built it to almost any level of income you desire, if you put your heart into it.  If you work at it long enough, just a few hours per week, your Watkins-based income will continue to grow and eventually match or replace your current source of income if you work at it long enough.  You’ll be providing people you know, people you come to know and people you will come to meet online, with 350 fantastic products that American consumers in all walks of life use.  Consider what this great opportunity could do for you and your family.  Learn more about becoming a Watkins Associate by visiting a special Watkins business information center now.

Help Control Blood Sugar Levels with Watkins Cinnamon

I went to my local Sam’s Club over the weekend to purchase supplies for a pasta dinner my church group was cooking for a Girl Scout’s Awards Banquet and turned down the vitamins and supplements aisle as I tried to take a shortcut to avoid a traffic jam of busy shoppers.  As I neared the exit of the aisle the word “Cinnamon” caught my eye on a large medicine bottle. 

 rexall_<a href='http://www.watkinsonline.com/productsgroup.cfm?Parent=3&family=21&gCatalogLocale=USA&ECredit=377329&group=176'>cinnamon</a> Instantaneously, my brain flashed the question – “What is cinnamon doing on the natural supplements aisle?”   Almost as quickly I answered my own question — “Ah yes, the medical study findings that cinnamon lowers blood sugar and thus, could be useful in helping to control diabetes in America.”  And sure enough, that indeed was it, a nicely packaged bottle under the famous Rexall label with the trade name “Cinn-Max” in a 300 count bottle of 500 mg capsules of none none other than, yes, Cinnamon. 

The label on the bottle touted that Cinnamon has been found to support sugar metabolism.  Indeed, this well-known and popular herb is rapidly becoming famous once again for medicinal purposes.  It has been known for years that cinnamon contains several constituents that have beneficial effects.  Sugar metabolism has been proven to be very important in a number of  areas of health, including energy production, weight management and the support of functional lipids, proteins and nucleic acids. 

A recent study by a group of medical researchers in Pakistan found the following results and conclusions on a controlled group of humans with Type 2 diabetes that were placed on 1, 3 and 6 grams of cinnamon per day for 40 days:

Results: After 40 days, all three levels of cinnamon reduced the mean fasting serum glucose (18-29%), triglyceride (23-30%), LDL cholesterol (7-27%), and total cholesterol (12-26%) levels; no significant changes were noted in the placebo groups. Changes in HDL cholesterol were not significant. CONCLUSIONS: The results of this study demonstrate that intake of 1, 3, or 6 g of cinnamon per day reduces serum glucose, triglyceride, LDL cholesterol, and total cholesterol in people with type 2 diabetes and suggest that the inclusion of cinnamon in the diet of people with type 2 diabetes will reduce risk factors associated with diabetes and cardiovascular diseases.

organic_<a href='http://www.watkinsonline.com/productsgroup.cfm?Parent=3&family=21&gCatalogLocale=USA&ECredit=377329&group=176'>cinnamon</a> Here in America, our own Agriculture Research Service, an arm of the U.S. Department of Agriculture, conducted a study on cinnamon which concluded that cinnamon makes the body’s cells more responsive to insulin, which in turn aids in controlling the level of sugar (i.e., glucose) in the body. 

Sprinkling 1/2 tsp to 1 tsp of Watkins cinnamon per day on your food could be the spice of life you’ve been looking for in your efforts to control blood sugar levels, triglycerides and cholesterol.  Watkins cinnamon is of the highest quality and has several important features you should consider when purchasing cinnamon for your household:

When one considers that 16 million Americans suffer from diabetes and another 13 million Americans have high blood sugar levels and are at risk of getting diabetes, the market for cinnamon to aid in the metabolism of sugar is huge.  We as Watkins Associates need to inform our clients of the benefits of this true “spice of life” and point out the high quality and attention to detail that Watkins takes in manufacturing and packaging our 100% organic grade of Cassia Cinnamon — the finest cinnamon on the market.

And although Watkins has the finest quality of cinnamon on the market, our cinnamon is very competitively priced.  Remember that bottle of Rexall brand cinnamon capsules I mentioned earlier?  It has 300 capsules per bottle.  Based on 500 mg per capusule, a 300 count bottle would contain 150 grams of cinnamon.  The cheapest I could find this bottle sold online was $19.90.  Now compare that to a 56 gram can of cinnamon from Watkins that regularly sales for just $4.99 per can.  One could purchase 4 cans of Watkins cinnamon for roughly the same price as the one bottle of Rexall-brand and have 224 grams of cinnamon – a full 74 grams, or approximately 50% more cinnamon for the same price.   Consider this when buying your next supply of Watkins Cinnamon.
