Meet new One-Star Director Catherine Netter. Catherine was born and raised in Swindon, England, UK. She shares, “I’m the mother of a crazy seven-year-old who is my complete world and whom I adore so much. I was introduced to this opportunity back in January 2019 and I turned it down, sat back and watched for five months before I had enough of sitting back and watching and jumped straight in! I always knew I had an entrepreneurial spirit in my bones, as I’ve tried so many things in the past, alongside my corporate jobs and even when I was younger! I used to sell chocolate and sweets at school from my locker, designed stationary for weddings, even wanted to buy a McDonald’s franchise, but just never had the kind of crazy money to invest!
“My daughter, Evie, and I have had the best adventures together already. We love being outdoors, we love staying home snuggled under blankets watching movies, and we are even more excited to see more of the world together! I wake up grateful every single day that I get to work from home and work this business around my number one priority. I get to be a great kick-ass Mum AND flourish in my career, both at the same time, something I have ALWAYS wanted…and that you cannot put a price on. The team culture created is SO powerful and the opportunities presented to us to continue to grow are even more exciting.
“I was SO lucky and extremely grateful when I was younger to experience two to three holidays a year with my siblings and parents; we created the BEST memories on these holidays, and this is why it’s so special that this business can provide the same memories for myself and my daughter as she grows up. We have several holidays booked in 2020 and there’s so much excitement already. I also had a two-year, solo travelling trip booked/planned back when I was 21 years old, but a month before I was due to leave, I found out I was having a bundle of joy in 11 weeks time. My travel plans took a backseat, but no more. The future is looking extremely perfect and extraordinary thanks to this business, and even better, I get to do it all with my little sidekick! I cannot wait to see more of the world in the future with Evie and create forever lasting memories together.
“Tips for success…what we all have to remember is the industry we are in is a people-to-people to business. You have to LOVE talking and showing people exactly what we do. Make sure you have a daily method of operation every single day and that you SHOW up every day to complete this. I have a huge checklist of what I need to complete every day and tick this off, even on weekends. I will ALWAYS make time for this business, no matter how busy I am. Also learn to be patient, natural, and authentic when showing the opportunity we have. Never take a ‘no’ outright, it’s just always a ‘not right now.’ The timing has to be right for them to join, not you. Fortune is ALWAYS in the follow up. As well as working super hard, prepare to make sacrifices right at the beginning! Short term sacrifices for long term gains, promise it will pay off!
“Achieving One-Star Director within my first six months in the business felt amazing. But I didn’t have time to celebrate, my focus is back on achieving my next goals. Remember, setting a goal and believing you can achieve it is the first step, but turning up and taking HUGE ACTION, every single day, is where you are going to see the results. You are going to have knock-backs, that’s the beauty of business, but use those knock-backs to push forward even more outside of your comfort zone, and that’s where the magic happens! We have the vehicle with this business, but it’s up to us to go out and find those drivers who want to achieve financial freedom, security, and most importantly, time freedom, to live life on their terms. You just have to wake up every morning and say. ‘How many lives can I improve today?’ Remember, if you treat this like a hobby, it will pay you like a hobby. Treat it like a business, and it will pay you like a business.
“A fun fact about me…the best business building for me happens when I’m in a hot bubble bath! I have found my best business partners whilst having a soak in the bubbles. I have two a day if I’m really spoiling myself! Try it, you’ll be thanking me later. Also can’t go to bed with talcum powdering my feet, (don’t ask)!
“Wishing a wonderful Christmas to you all and a Happy New Year!”
