So that’s my dorky self hugging my brand new, 2017 Toyota Sienna. I guess you could say I was excited. I earned a car lease reimbursement from SeneGence – which was my big goal when I started my LipSense business and became a distributor back in late April.

A car lease reimbursement is a somewhat common perk of direct sales companies. Think of the pink Mary Kay Cadillac, or the Tupperware Lady’s Wagon. (True story, my mom was a Tupperware Lady and we drove a Tupperware wagon for years!)

I think this is a wonderful reward. Not only is it AWESOME to drive a brand new car off the lot (you guys, I’ve NEVER owned a new car in my entire life!), but it’s also a great sales tool.

I can point outside when I’m talking to someone about my business and say, “You see that sparkly new car outside? I earned that from my company!”

At that point, I definitely have their attention! The sales guy at the Toyota dealership was pretty cool… he was shocked when he found out that I earned this car. “You must sell a lot of lipstick!” was his surprised response.

Teehee. I love it.

People don’t always take direct sales seriously, mostly because they tried it and failed, or know someone who did.

Here’s the thing: I know lots of people who have built full time incomes with their direct sales business. Growing up, I was in a household where I saw my mom make great money with a few different companies. I KNEW what was possible.

Yet the first time I tried the business (14 years ago, with a health supplements company), I failed miserably!

I explain here the 8 reasons why I believe it’s possible to be successful with SeneGence over other companies.

There I am driving some of my 7 kids around (they’re not all pictured). It feels so good to be in a NICE, SAFE car!

I met this goal of earning the car lease reimbursement in only 3 months in my business. These results aren’t typical, but they are common enough – I’ve seen many women achieve the same in a similar time frame in my company!

It does take work to make a direct sales business work. But it’s fun work. It’s fulfilling work. I help women feel more beautiful and confident, and I get paid to do it! I also love that I’m helping women meet THEIR income goals. The distributors on my team motivate me to be the best leader I can be, and they tell me that I inspire them. What a neat way to earn money!

I’ve been studying the direct sales industry for years. As a blogger who hung out with work at home moms and wrote about the topic for over a decade, I had a lot of time to study it. And below I list 8 reasons why it’s easier to be successful with SeneGence than other direct sales companies.

Since becoming a distributor I’ve had the opportunity to meet a lot of women who were previously in another direct sales company but who made little money, but who are experiencing much success in SeneGence/LipSense.

I’m included in this group – I worked hard for a long time at a business whose products I loved but made no money. I worked my business every day, attended trainings, learned about the product, followed the system of my upline, and totally loved the products and the company.

But I failed miserably after a solid year of consistent work!

On the other hand, I have enjoyed fast success in SeneGence.

In only 3 months, I earned the car lease reimbursement. I’m pictured below with my brand new car that SeneGence pays for each month.

I earn a full-time income and it grows every month, despite the fact that I work very part time hours, especially now that homeschool is back in session!

What makes the difference? Why did I fail so miserably at that other direct sales business but have fast success with SeneGence?

(Please note: I am NOT dissing other direct sales companies! I love this business and grew up around it. I also support other direct sellers when at all possible, preferring to buy from work at home moms than supporting big box stores. Even though I’m a happy customer of some other direct sales companies however, I have found it’s far easier to make money with SeneGence.)

After thinking about this at length, and observing and talking with other distributors in the company and those on my own team, I’ve come to the conclusion it’s because of the following things:

8 Reasons Why It’s Easier to be Successful with SeneGence Than Other Companies

1) In SeneGence, we sell consumable products.

This means they have to be reordered because they’re used up (unlike a “one and done” like a water filter). And, almost all women are ALREADY in the habit of using makeup and skin care.

In other words we are not having to convince someone to change their habit or to use a product that they don’t already use and understand. We don’t have to convince someone to lose weight, stay on a regimen, etc.

Our target market is HUGE. Even women who never wear lipstick do use skin care and/or other makeup.

2) SeneGence has a low barrier of entry.

With some companies, an initial investment of thousands of dollars is required. In SeneGence, it takes just $55 to start, and you don’t have to place a large initial order if you’re not in a position to. You can collect payment and do pre-orders.

3) LipSense is easy to “wow!” customers with. 

With health products, it may take months of product use before people see a difference. It can be difficult to convince people to buy hundreds of dollars worth of health supplements before they feel better.

However, in SeneGence, we can wow our customers in *seconds* by swiping our lip color and showing that it’s smudge-proof, or by posting a quick video on social media.

4) Our business is FUN and “light”.

We don’t have to worry about the FDA cracking down on us for making health claims (as in the case of a health direct sales business), or delving into people’s personal health issues, worrying about drug interactions or deal with endless questions about safety and ingredients (this was such a pain when I was in a health company!).

We’re helping women feel more beautiful and confident and we get paid to do so! How fun is that? We get to play with makeup and make money getting in touch with our inner little girl.

5) Lipstick is recession proof.

History shows that even in times of economic recession, the sale of lip color does not drop. When people have money problems they will stop buying health supplements and clothing but women will find a way to buy their favorite lip color even if it means scrimping in other areas.

6) An abundance of training is available.

There is such an abundance of training both inside the company website from corporate and from distributors who freely share their knowledge on Facebook and YouTube. There isn’t a culture of scarcity where distributors hoard their secrets of success!

7) Our compensation plan is generous and it’s possible to earn full time income in months instead of years.

Our founder, Joni Rogers-Kante, envisioned a company with a generous compensation plan that rewarded more to the distributors rather than corporate. SeneGence is the result!

As a SeneGence distributor, we earn generous commissions on our downline team’s sales. We also have the opportunity to earn immediate cash on retail sales!

Not every company allows their distributors to sell the products at retail because everyone pays the same price, in some cases being enrolled into the company auto-ship (which is a hard sell to a new customer who doesn’t want to hand over their credit card number!).

Those companies advertise this as a benefit, but a distributor who is in the position to immediately earn cash in her first week in business via retail sales can use that money right away to put gas in her car, buy the big box of diapers, spoil her kids or herself with something new or pay a bill.

8) Stable company, not a “ground floor” with no history of success.  

SeneGence has been in business for 18 years (since 1999) and has the infrastructure in place for massive growth without folding. We have just come through a period of huge growth (over 2200% from April 2016-2017!) and dealt with slow and out of stock situations, and we have come out the other side.

Many companies who have the kind of growth we experienced last year would have simply folded!

And yet since most people have still never heard of SeneGence, we have the opportunity to be the person to introduce it to them.

Hello!

​

I hope your Sunday afternoon is treating you well! I’m currently enjoying a little vacay on Tybee Island… if you’re not from around here, you may not realize that Georgia has a coastline but indeed it does!

I wanted to drop you a super quick note to let you know that tomorrow (Monday, August 28th) I’m doing a live event on Facebook with some of my Savannah girls – these are ladies who are also SeneGence/LipSense distributors who will be sharing their business stories.

If you’ve been curious at all about how this business works and how we earn money, tune in! I’m giving away a starter collection of LIpSense ($55 value!) to one participant.

All you have to do is join this Facebook group:https://www.facebook.com/groups/lippychicexclusiveqanda

And be there at 7 eastern tomorrow night. See you there!

Carrie
p.s. I’ve never been on a week long vacation in my entire adult life, but we’ve been able to do that because of this business. I’d love to share more and answer any questions you have during the live event. And if you can’t make it, reach out and we can talk another time.

Not on Facebook? I’ll be doing the entire presentation live on Instagram too! Follow me here: https://www.instagram.com/carrieleewillard

A few weeks ago I posted that I’d made the rank of Royal with SeneGence (the makers of LipSense). Now I’m sharing that I hit the next rank: that of SeneGence Lady.

SeneGence Lady

SeneGence acknowledges women who are working their business with rank achievements. Becoming a Lady means that I’ve brought a certain number of women into my team who I’m training to work the business as well.

This business has taken off faster than I ever could have imagined!

There is nothing special about me. I didn’t reach the rank of Lady because I have unique talents. The truth is, I just talk to people about this company, which I think is wonderful and unique in the industry.

Anyone can open their mouth and do that!

It’s also fun and rewarding to share the product line (which is impressive – the more I learn the more I realize this!) as well as to see the distributors I’m training blossom. At this point I have more excitement for what’s possible for them than I do for myself. It’s awesome helping others reach their goals and working with incredible, dynamic women!

And I realize that it may seem odd to talk more about the SeneGence business opportunity than the products on this blog.

I do plan on writing more about the product line, which I use and truly love.

But here’s the thing.

The business opportunity SeneGence offers is more powerful and life-changing.

Let’s talk stats. Did you know that over 85% of American families don’t have an extra $450 available for an emergency and would have to put that amount on a credit card?

This business can change that for a family. It’s certainly done so for me! My husband and I have 7 children living at home. Life is expensive!

Get in touch with me if your family would benefit from additional income. I can show you how SeneGence offers a solid opportunity for anyone willing to work. I don’t work my business full-time because I have all these kids… but I’m still growing my business every week. Let me know how I can help you become a SeneGence lady!
