Join My Program, It's The Best

It seems that everyone is pitching their business opportunity.  We get emails, messages, and telephone calls from many people that say that we should join their MLM.  That's all fine and good, but we really don't want to.

In 1990, we signed up with Watkins Incorporated out of Winona, Minnesota.  By 1992, we basically did nothing with this business but let it sit, and buy products for ourselves.  After 20 years, we have a handful of customers that include many of our family members.  Every once in a while, somebody will call and say they can't get the products anywhere else and that they need vanilla today.  Typically, this is towards the end of the year around Thanksgiving and Christmas, so we always make sure to stock enough.

I'll be honest with you, we have no downline and are making no where near a full-time living with it.  But we sell $200 - $300 worth of products in November and December to family and people that find us somehow.  There is no advertising involved.  We were not promoting the business until now.  People just find us and buy from us.  Today it is even more interesting because many Watkins Representatives have moved or dropped out and there are still customers who rave about the product.

Is this a good business to be involved in, selling Watkins products?  I think it is a great business.  Products we want to buy.  Customers who are raving fans.  Dwindling number of competitors.  And the compensation plan pays out 60% of the product's value.  We just need to be committed to the business. 

Many of the Watkins Representatives that signed up at the same time as us are manager level or above.  One that we know of is making over $250K per year.  Too bad that isn't us.

As for any other program, we are really not interested in anything else.  If nothing ever happens with Watkins, that's ok, we're fine the way things are.
