Training and Workshops

The first Monday night of each month are our monthly workshops.  Join us as we meet with Liz Hawkinson's group at the Perkin's Restaurant in Roseville, MN from 7-8:30 p.m.  We train on topics such as home shows, book fairs, Reach for the Stars, etc.; share home office news, advertise national and local events, welcome new consultants and celebrate individual and group successes.   Please call or email me if you plan to come.


The second Monday night of each month is our own group training.  Keeping the same meeting time, 7-8:30 p.m. at my home in South Minneapolis, here we'll focus on specific topics you want or need, new business ventures such as booths, promoting to supervisor or beyond, and more.  Again, please call or email me if you plan to come.

At either of these monthly meetings you are welcome to bring a guest who is interested in the business opportunity.  Please let me know ahead of time and come at 6:30 p.m. instead, so we can spend a few minutes specifically answering any questions he or she will have. 





Lending Library




I keep a library of books and CDs for you, both for business and sales skills, and leadership development.  If you are interested in anything I have listed, please call me at 612-724-4447 or toll free at 877-280-5467 or send me an email  and I will ship the item to you.  Please return it at the end of one month along with an email or phone call to let me know it's on its way.  If you do not return it after two months, you will be asked to pay replacement cost, which will happily be refunded if you return it, so that I can continue to have these resources available.
