About Us
G’day, I hope you’re having a fantastic day or evening! It’s funny when writing about “Who you are”, because all of us are really lots of different personalities all wrapped up in one physical parcel:-) I’m a mother of 2 lovely grown up daughters, a wife to a man named John, who is my favorite Rock ‘n Roll singer, a grandmother to 2 very gorgeous and cute little beings – one is a little boy almost 3 years old and the other a little girl who just had her first birthday!
I live in a city in Australia, called the “Gold Coast”, where it’s sunny around 98% of the time. The Gold Coast has a real holiday type atmosphere and attracts thousands of tourists from all over the country and the world because of the climate and the 70 miles of golden sandy beaches.
Below is a video of John and I, on one of the Gold Coast beaches, just saying hello…
My Passions
I am also a Scuba Diver, something I learned about 6 years ago, and I LOVE the feeling of Being underwater and swimming with the fish, and looking at those magnificent underwater gardens, that are sooo different from anything you see above the ground!
Here’s a video I took of us diving on the HMAS Brisbane, a big ship that was sunk about 5 years ago, and is now a very popular with divers. You won’t see much of John or me, but you can certainly see the exciting stuff we see almost 30 metres underwater.
Another thing I love is to travel, and over the last 10 years, have travelled to many different and exciting places overseas, like Slovenia (my favorite), Netherlands, Germany, Italy, Spain, Bulgaria, and in the United States, Las Vegas, San Diego and Palm Springs.
I also love learning about the Law of Attraction, and follow the teachings of Abraham Hicks closely. I listen to Abraham Hicks for hours and hours!
My Journey as an Online Entrepreneur
Back in the year 2000, I was getting a bit too serious about work and missing out on a lot of fun! After getting Honours in a computer science degree, I found myself engrossed in studying for a PhD and also teaching Computer Science at a University in South Australia. I thought the study would be really exciting, and it was at first. However, while sitting at my desk for more hours than I care to remember, I started to realize I wanted to do other activities in my life!
At one time, I was looking to earn a bit of extra money because I was going overseas, so one day, my husband John and I responded to an advert that said “Use your computer to earn income”!
Funny though, it turned out to be a network marketing opportunity, and John spent most nights on the phone doing half hour sales calls. The best part about that business was that we fell in love with the idea of getting residual income and we started dreaming again!
A couple of years later, we were introduced to a more automated Internet Marketing system, and we used a Face Page and photos on the internet, so people could get to know us. This was the beginning of what’s now called “Attraction Marketing” although we called it “Relationship Marketing”. Those days, we mostly purchased leads and got to know people in internet discussion forums. I started doing a lot of fun and adventurous stuff like learning to scuba dive and we travelled to Hawaii one year and to San Diego a couple of times.
We learned about the Law of Attraction, which has shown us that the most important thing in life is to FEEL GOOD!
The Internet marketing system we were using worked so well for us, that we left our jobs (I had a job as a computer science lecturer by that time) and moved from Sth Australia up to the Gold Coast in Queensland, Australia.
However… about a year after moving cities, the internet network marketing system we’d been using was immobilized and our network marketing downline almost completely disintegrated.
Needless to say, we were forced to start over again. We were fortunate to be introduced to the Vemma nutritional company, which we’ve been with for about 4 years now. We started off using our Relationship Marketing strategies and attracted a powerful leader into our business, who has put more than 4,000 people into our downline. When that happened, we were very excited, especially when we started getting pretty large weekly checks. John and I are extremely fortunate to have this man in our team! We’ve had some exciting holidays in Slovenia, Holland, Germany and in California and Vegas over the last few years.
I built an online store for the products, learned a lot about search engine optimization, and article and video marketing. For a couple of years I focussed almost entirely on attracting customers online.
I still get a steady amount of customers.. However, I wouldn’t recommend ONLY using this strategy for a number of reasons. The main reason is that customers don’t build your business for you, so it’s much quicker to work with business builders. And, that’s what I’m focusing on now, in addition to showing other network marketers how to use relationship marketing online, in their business.
I can’t wait to hear your story, and to help you in your journey towards achieving your dreams!
Here’s some photos of my family and I, from the last several years, to show you some of the things I’m passionate about.
