Two Years With Watkins – One Vacation and Three Top 10 Awards!

Print This Post Print This Post Email This Post

I joined Watkins in February 2008 and achieved the Manager level in 1 year, which is essentially 5 levels above the beginning level of  Consultant.  By March 2010, only 2 years and one month later, I was lying on the beaches of Kona, Hawaii enjoying my first “Watkins trip,” a feat won by me and about 30 other Watkins associates.  Not bad, when you consider the fact that there’s about 50,000 Watkins associates operating in the U.S. and Canada, and I accomplished this goal in two years.

I just returned from Watkins annual conference in Minneapolis, Minnesota a week ago and have been too busy to update my blog with my list of accomplishments.  I won 3 awards at the conference and was told by my upline that no other associate in Watkins won more awards.  Until the next newsletter from Watkins gets published, I’m not sure I can cite off the top of my head what my 3 awards were for, frankly speaking.  The awards did not have a reference to the category, and apparently my hotel maid liked them better than I did, because they magically disappeared from my room on my last night in Minneapolis. (oh well).  I do know that I finished in 2nd place company-wide for top sponsoring at the Manager level and below.   Once I’ve confirmed my placements and categories, I’ll update this blog post.

Somehow, it seems quite foolish talking about the achievements of one’s self.  I decided to write this post because I often get asked the question by prospects considering the Watkins home-based business opportunity, “How fast can I achieve success with a Watkins business?”  My answer to that question these days is to simply point out what I’ve been able to achieve with Watkins, working just 8 to 10 hours per week for a couple of years. 

When considering a Watkins business, one of the most important decisions you need to make up front is deciding who is going to be your sponsor.  After all, the simplest way to become successful is to find someone else that’s successful and copy their model.  But to copy or follow someone’s model you need to ensure that the person you choose as your sponsor will also be a good mentor and coach.  When people ask me how am I building a Watkins business, I point out right away that I’m building a Watkins team, and I’m doing it through coaching and mentoring — teaching others how to enjoy Watkins success.

Since joining Watkins I’ve discovered that not everyone wants a mentor and coach.  Many that say they do really only want to talk a couple of times by phone and then they seem to go their own separate way, building their business “their way.”  This is actually one of the biggest mistakes in the network marketing business — trying to do things “your way.”  I’ve been with Watkins for over two years and I still consult my upline several times per month.  My reason for doing so is simple, “I want to take advantage of their years of experience with Watkins and learn as much from their past mistakes and misfires as I have from their successes.”  Why?  Because I don’t want to make the same mistakes they did, and by avoiding many of the pitfalls others fall into, I can shorten my own road to success.  Thus far, that approach and decision has worked very well for me.

If you’re considering Watkins as a source of second income or part-time business venture, I would love to tell you more about our great business opportunity and explain my mentoring and coaching methods.  All conversations and emails are handled on a no-hassel, no-pressure, no-obligation to join basis.  In essense, you have nothing to lose and everything to gain by contacting me.  Feel free to call my toll free number at 1-866-759-5158 to learn more about this great business opportunity, or request my free Watkins  Business Evaluation Kit today!

Pros and Cons of Starting a Watkins Products Business

“Why choose Watkins products as your source of extra income, or work from home business opportunity?”  I get asked this question a lot.  Making a T-List of pros and cons that evaluate the Watkins home business opportunity is really quite amusing.  Why?  Because the list of “pros” is so long it’s almost unbelievable, and trying to come up with a list of “cons” is almost impossible. 

Still, for those that are interested in marketing Watkins products, I’ll do my best to paint a fair picture and unbiased picture for you.  To be fair, let me first start by saying any review I give of Watkins may not be considered as unbiased, since I’m an Independent Watkins Associate myself.  But I’ll be happy to provide a list of references for you to people that can certify I’m a straight shooter and known to express my opinions, whether good or bad, on all things related to Watkins.

Pros for Selling Watkins Products

As noted above, the list of pros associated with starting a Watkins products business is long.  Ask any Watkins associate about the attributes and benefits of the Watkins home-based business opportunity and I guarantee you that you’ll come up with new pros you can add to my list.  That said, here are some very important attributes of Watkins products that led me to making the decision to start a Watkins home products business of my own.

Earn Extra Income With Watkins

As we begin another new year, are you worried about the state of your financial affairs in 2010?  If so, I highly recommend you consider earning extra income with Watkins.  I’m a professional business consultant and have evaluated many work from home business opportunities during my career, but I’ve never found any that can match the long list of benefits and attributes of running a home-based Watkins business.

J.R. Watkins, inventor of the money back guarantee, founded Watkins 142 years ago and quickly became a pioneer of the “work from home dealer” industry.  Since its founding, the company has always used a network of work from home entrepreneurs to market its products.  Today, over 50,000 independent Watkins associates market 350 different products manufactured by Watkins.  Watkins line of products is both wide and deep, covering kitchen and cooking products like seasonsings, spices, extracts and flavorings, to just about everything under the sun for home, family and personal use. 

For example, Watkins manufacturers an entire line of plant-based, environmentally friendly cleaning products like laundry and dishwashing detergents, all-purpose cleaner, hand soaps, toilet bowl cleaner, tub and shower cleaner, furniture polish and window cleaner.  An extensive line of vitamins and supplements are complimented by Watkins highly respected line of remedies.

Starting a part-time business is a good way to survive these difficult economic times.  The true beauty of the Watkins business opportunity is the fact that it is designed to be started as a part-time business, but can be built into a full-time income in a few short years.  If you would like to learn more about the Watkins home-based business opportunity, complete our request form and order our totally free, no-obligation, Watkins Business Evaluation Kit now.  You’ll be glad you did.
