Introduction to Forever
I first heard of Forever in 1995 from my husband. At that time I was suffering quite badly with IBS and Arthritis. He had heard about the benefits of Forever Living products from a networking colleague Julie Buck and thought that her products may help me. So he introduced me to Julie who recommended that I drink the Forever gel drink on a daily basis. I was amazed at the results! Whilst it did not cure me, I am totally pain free and have a very active busy life. I am now passionate about the benefits of this wonderful natural drink and want to help other people who suffer from similar aliments.
Finding out about the Business Opportunity
I found out about the business opportunity quite by accident as my distributor called me one day to say she couldn’t deliver my gel drink to my home but instead asked if she could drop it off at my office? When she arrived in the car park I could see from my office window that she had a brand new Porche. When I asked her about it, she explained that it was her company car. I immediately wanted to know more! How could she aford that beautiful car by selling just a few natural health products?

Julie suggested that we meet up for a coffee later in the week when it was more convenient and then she could answer all my questions. I was so impressed by what I heard, I joined the company there and then, that was August 1997 and I have never looked back.
My background was in HR, I had been a HR & Facilities Manager at a local hygiene company. I hated my job which was extremely stressful and besides, it was not secure as the threat of redundancy was on the horizon and I needed a ‘plan B’. The Forever Business Opportunity was perfect for me as it was flexible and I didn’t have to give up my full-time job. I managed to fit my business around my job and family by working in those little nooks and crannies of my spare time.
In 1999 I had built quite a successful business and had reached Manager level within Forever when I decided to hand my notice in, but the company beat me to it as they announced they were making everyone redundant and closing the building down. So, what was my plan B became my plan A. I can honestly say that I have NO REGRETS! Yes it is hard work, but I now have full control over my life and in a business that I really love. What’s not to love? I can work the hours that suit me; I work from home; my colleagues are really supportive and the training is second to none and the fact we have the Investors in people Gold award proves that!
