There Is Only 1 You Women’s Expo: Saturday, November 10

There Is Only 1 You Women's Expo THIS Saturday, November 10 at the Water Street Inn, Stillwater.

It's Here!

What do an Aveda salon, Dove chocolate, a clean house, yummy food and fashion all have in common? Well, not only do they describe my perfect day, but they will all be exhibiting at the There Is Only 1 You Women’s Expo. I hope to see you at the Water Street Inn in Stillwater this Saturday, November 10, 2012, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. In lieu of an admission fee, expo founders Stacie Jensen and Lynnette Dirks encourage you to bring an item to donate to Community Thread’s Holiday Bureau program.

Kay Thibodeaux, Dove Chocolate Discoveries

Kay Thibodeaux with Dove Chocolate Discoveries (DCD) started doing Dove home parties because she loves chocolate. Additionally, DCD has many great advantages over other home party companies. DCD offers the backing of MARS, Inc., a great compensation plan, a ground-floor opportunity and a quality product that is consumable and unique.

Kay has more than 30 years of experience working with in-home party plan businesses. She knows how to make hosts and customers feel good about themselves. Kay offers a personalized shopping experience. Whether it’s a gift for yourself or a gift for someone else, chocolate is always perfect. It is the one gift that never needs to be returned for being the wrong size or color. Kay says, “I love what I do, and I think it shows. There’s no one in the Stillwater area doing what I do!”

DCD has two fabulous specials now through December:

  • Cinnamon-dusted milk chocolate almonds and chocolate covered espresso beans for $28 (regularly priced $32)
  • Cinnamon apples ala mode, dark chocolate covered fruit collection and milk chocolate cappuccino biscottini for $53 (regularly priced $62)

 

Additionally, Kay offers a wide range of $10 – $12 items for teachers, employers and colleagues – sea salted caramels, pure dark bark, pure dark sea salt rounds, cinnamon almonds, cashews and almonds, and chocolate martini mix (oooohhh… sign me up for that one!).

Kim Zahradka, Norwex Independent Sales Consultant

Kim Zahradka had lived with skin problems and allergies her whole life. In 2010, she had just completed extensive allergy testing with her dermatologist. She was in dire need of a change. Her daughter came home from her first Norwex party, excited and full of intriguing facts. Kim wasted no time – right after hearing about Norwex’s products, she called to book a party and, in that same phone conversation with the consultant, decided to become a Norwex consultant. Kim knew Norwex was going to be big. In the two-and-a-half years since, Kim’s skin issues have improved 100%, she enjoys the extra income, and she loves making a positive difference in people’s lives. The products continue to amaze her.

Norwex’s mission is “to improve the quality of life by radically reducing the use of chemicals in personal care and cleaning.”  Are you looking for alternative cleaning methods (Norwex uses just a cloth and water – no harsh chemicals!), ways to improve your health or ways to reduce acne and other skin problems? Kim can educate you on the Norwex products and really help make a difference in your life.

Kim says, “Stop by my booth for product demos and lots of holiday gift ideas! I will have a special bonus gift for those who want to join my team, a door prize drawing for a Norwex shopping spree and free samples for anyone who mentions reading this article!”

Lindsey Thompson, Senior Team Manager and Independent Consultant with Tastefully Simple

Lindsey Thompson began her business with Tastefully Simple more than eight years ago. Initially, it was a way to earn some fun money and have some adult time after leaving her teaching job to stay home with her kids. It blossomed into so much more – friendships, flexibility and financial freedom.

Tastefully Simple offers easy-to-prepare food that helps bring peace and simplicity to those stressful kitchen situations. Lindsey loves to service her clients by offering great recipe ideas, meal planning tips and even one-on-one meal prepping through Freezer Meal Workshops. Lindsey particularly enjoys introducing products to friends through taste testing parties. Lindsey says, “Doing your grocery shopping and meal planning is fun with a group of friends!”

A Tastefully Simple party is a fun way to shop for holiday gifts with your friends. And in November and December, Tastefully Simple is offering two deals in addition to the free products you get through the host program:

  • For a $500 – $699.99 party, you can purchase the Holiday Host Collection for only $14.99 (65% off). The collection features a new Holiday Recipes book for making festive treats.
  • For a $700+ party, you get the Holiday Host Collection for free ($42.90 retail value).
