No Need to Hold Your Nose!

1458_FreshenerBagDuo2I love my cat and she is almost as highly regarded in this house as any other family member.  There is a spot in our home, though, that she frequents on a regular basis, that I would describe as “almost as bad as an outhouse”.  Yes, there are brands of kitty litter that say they remove the odor of  …. well … you know.  But none of them can do so 100%.  That’s why I like my Norwex Air Freshener Bags.

You may not have a cat, but every homemaker knows the problem that can be created by dirty laundry, rancid gym clothes, shoes, trash cans, diaper pails, mold and mildew.  It can be quite distasteful even when you are not tasting.

To combat such odors we are inclined to use aerosol deodorizers with various scents, or we can use scented candles with fragrances that release harmful chemicals into the air.  Neither the odors, nor the current remedies are good for you and your family’s health.

There’s a better Solution:  You can freshen and purify the air in your home naturally with the Norwex Air Freshener Bags!

Did You Know?

  • Bamboo is among the fastest-growing plants. Young shoots can grow 1 – 4 meters (3 – 13 feet) overnight.  Harvesting Bamboo has less impact
    on the environment and ecosystem compared to harvesting trees.
  • Many air fresheners are considered toxic because they can contain carcinogens, volatile organic compounds and phthalates. Some air fresheners also contain chemicals that trigger allergy and asthma symptoms.
  • Bamboo charcoal has millions of tiny, porous holes through which it absorbs impurities and excess moisture. It’s been shown to reduce harmful chemicals emitted from paint, carpeting, furniture, air fresheners, chemical cleaners, rubber and plastic.

Key Features:

  • Each Norwex Air Freshener Bag contains 100% Bamboo charcoal
  • Beautiful exteriors are constructed of sustainable linen Flax fibers.
  • Non-toxic
  • Eco-friendly
  • Fragrance-free
  • Recyclable and biodegradable
  • Two sizes for various uses

Key Benefits:

  • Charcoal naturally and effectively absorbs odor from closets, pet areas, refrigerators, lockers and bathrooms
  • Also absorbs bacteria, harmful pollutants and allergens
  • Dehumidifies air, helping to prevent excess moisture, mold and mildew
  • 75 g bag works better than baking soda to absorb food odors in the refrigerator.
  • Keeps fruit, vegetables and other food fresher longer by absorbing ethylene gas and odors
  • 75 g bag is also great for freezers, wine coolers, linen drawers, gym bags, shoes, lockers and hampers.
  • 200 g bag covers 90 square feet, making it ideal for closets, bathrooms, cars, boats, pet areas, and laundry rooms.
  • Safe on any surface
  • Bags rejuvenate in sunlight to last up to two years.

Are there absolutely no more odors in the kitty’s special “place”. Well … not really but I no longer need to hold my nose when I walk by!  To learn more and get some Air Freshener Bags for yourself, just use this link.

Things to Know Before Sticking it in Your Mouth!

354_Adult_Toothbrush

Did You Know?

  • The first “toothbrush” was created around 3000 BC. Ancient civilizations used a thin twig with a frayed edge to rub against their teeth for cleaning.
  • The first nylon bristle toothbrush was introduced in 1938, and people quickly became aware of practicing good oral hygiene.
  • Dentists recommend brushing for at least two minutes, twice a day.
  • BUT according to research, the most common bacteria found on toothbrushes are the same ones that cause plaque, cavities, gingivitis and bad breath.

I’ve got a SOLUTION:  Use a Norwex Silver Care Toothbrush with a silver-covered base for natural and continuous antibacterial properties. As the bristles dry, the brush is sanitized!

The Silver Care Toothbrush features:

• Silver-covered bristle base with medium or soft bristles
• Four different colors
• Includes brush cover to prevent filaments from coming into contact with dust or with other brushes
• Comes with one replacement head and refills are available, reducing waste—just throw out the head, rather than the whole brush.

Key Benefits:

• Antibacterial properties interrupt the survival of bacteria, viruses and fungi
• Helps reduce bacteria by self-sanitizing within hours
• Flexible nylon bristles clean teeth gently and effectively
• Gently curved handle provides non-slip grip
• Replacement head extends the life of your toothbrush!

I like my Norwex Silver Care Toothbrush a lot!  Why not get yourself one today!  Just Click Here

Doing it Together!

Teamwork Definition Closeup Shows Combined Effort And Cooperation

For over a year I’ve been learning the ins and outs of being an independent consultant for Norwex.  I started doing it, originally, because I liked the cleaning products and I wanted to be able to save a little money by getting them at a discount.  Since then, I’ve become even more in love with the products but I’ve also become a strong proponent of eliminating as many chemicals from our homes as we can.  Cleaning supplies accounts for a huge amount of home chemicals!!! 

Recently, I was privileged to recruit a new independent consultant and add her to my team!  I was so excited!

If you have never thought of becoming a consultant for Norwex I want to invite you to consider it now.  Yes, you get the discount on the great Norwex products but think about these other reasons as well.

  1. You have the opportunity to make a difference in the lives and homes of those people whom you introduce to the safe, chemical free, environmentally friendly, effective cleaning products! How many homemakers do you know who would just love to have someone show them how to perform the cleaning routines in a safer, faster way?
  2. You will make a generous 35% commission on the sales you generate! Whether you need a little extra income to make ends meet, or whether you want to start a new career, Norwex offers you the potential of doing either … or something in between … and doing it on your own terms and schedule.  It’s a great opportunity with a great product!
  3. You don’t NEED to go to people’s homes and do home demonstrations in order to be a consultant. Perhaps that’s just not your thing.  Maybe you are a busy mom with small children and can’t imagine having the freedom to leave them for a night out at the party!  That’s OK!  You can still find success with the Catalog Party and the Website Party approaches.  There are even other ways to have parties that I can help you with.
  4. It won’t cost you an arm and a leg to start. It won’t even cost you thousands of dollars!  Consultants are generously paid and receive free products regularly. Becoming a consultant can cost as little as 200.00 for your starter kit and under some circumstances it won’t even cost you that!  We can talk more about those circumstances if you are interested.
  5. Come and join my team and I’ll be sure that you get all the help, advice, and support that you need in order to be a success. If I don’t have the answers for your questions, I know someone who will provide them to me.  I’ll be interested in you as a person … and as a team member regardles of where you may live.  With the wonders of technology today you can be halfway across the country and we can still be teammates!.  We’ll be in this together!
  6. Now for the BEST reason: I’d love to have you on my team and would count it a privilege to serve you!

If you have questions, let’s talk!  Contact me by e-mail, or leave me a comment to that effect below, and we’ll arrange to do so at a time and in a manner that you prefer.

If you are ready to join my team, use this link and follow the prompts.  I’ll be in touch with you soon after.

Thanks, so much!

Let’s Party!

Sweet and tasty Belgium white and dark chocolate pralines

Today I want to explain three easy ways to host a Norwex party and get all the great benefits that I explained in my post yesterday.  I want to emphasize that while each of these approaches are different, you as the host will still get the same benefits regardless.  Ready to have a party?  Which approach would you prefer?

The Home Demonstration.  For this type of party you simply invite your friends to show up at your home and I’ll come and show many of the Norwex products (you might even request some specific ones) and I will demonstrate how they are used.  I really like smearing butter on your windows or mirrors and then showing how easy it is to clean it off!  This is really the best type of party to have since the products really sell themselves!  Your party-goers will be able to handle the products and see them in action.  They will also be able to ask questions about the products as well as their specific cleaning needs.  It also provides opportunity for that important face to face time that we seem to have less and less of these days. This type of party generally generates better sales and, therefore, earn you more free product!

A variation of this type of party, if you don’t want to have it in YOUR home is to have it in someone else’s home (it works best if you ask them first) and share the host benefits with them!  That way you can both invite folks and it could make for a larger party!  Just don’t forget the chocolate for me to snack on!

The Catalog Party.  Here is a great way to have a party if you live too far away for me to come to do a home party (although I am willing to travel a reasonable distance).  Catalog parties are also great if you have family and friends who live too far to come to your home.  You take a catalog or two and pass it around to your friends and family, or even at the office.  Or you show it to them personally letting them know which products you use and like.  You take the orders and then pass them on to me so I can enter them for you.  This method is a little more difficult if you don’t have a good personal knowledge of the products but it can be a good way to go if your customers know Norwex.  This method can also be used in tandem with your Home Party if you have folks who would like to come to your home but have a conflict!  I’ll be happy to provide you with the catalogs you need when we set a date to close your party.  There is no chocolate needed for this type of party!

The Web Page Party.  This works similarly to the Catalog Party except that you can invite your friends and family, and even your Facebook friends to use the link to my Norwex Website Catalog where they can browse the products and special offers and order what they want on-line.  Once again we would set a closing date for your party and they would need to order before that date.  The customer simply needs to designate you as their host before they make payment.  They also have the option of having their purchases shipped directly to them.  If you live nearby, however, it is less expensive to have their items shipped to you and then arrange for them to get them after they arrive.  As in the case of the Catalog Party, there is no chocolate needed unless you want to get some for yourself!

Ready to talk about having one of these kind of parties?  Please contact me through my Facebook page, or by leaving a comment below, and let’s talk about what works best for you!

Have you been to any of these types of parties?  How did you like them.  I’m interested in your ideas for creating Norwex theme parties!  What themes would you suggest and how would you do them.

Want to Know a Secret?

Girl Telling A Secret To Her Friend

I have a confession to make.  It’s not really a deep dark secret and it’s one that I probably share with most of you who are reading this.  My knee-jerk reaction is to issue an automatic NO in answer to someone who asks me to host a “home party”.  Does that sound like you?  Well at least it’s comforting to know that we are not alone!

Well now that we have that on the table, I want to suggest some reasons why you might want to say YES when I ask you to host a Norwex Party!  In a day or two, I’ll also tell you some of the different ways in which you can have a party.

First things first though: Why in the world would you ever want to say YES to host a Norwex party?

  • A good excuse to have your friends and family over … in person!  Have you ever thought about the fact that with social media being what it is, and actually communicating face to face becoming a rarity, it’s kinda nice to actually interact with folks without having to use your iPhone, computer or iPad?  A Norwex party is a great reason to have some face time with friends and family!
  • You will love the Norwex products!  If you haven’t already learned about Norwex products, or even if you have, there’s no better way to learn more about them than to have them demonstrated in your own home.  What’s more, you can even ask for specific products in which you might be interested to be demonstrated!
  • Your friends will love the products.  These days, more and more people are concerned about protecting the environment.  Not only that but everyone needs to be clean … they DO, right?  And with busy schedules, a house full of kids, a dislike for the routine of cleaning … we all know folks who would love to have something to make their cleaning easier.  Do you have friends with allergies?  Do you have short friends?  Tall friends?  Man friends? Kid friends? New mother friends?  I can show you products for ALL of them.  I promise, when your friends and family use my products they will thank YOU for introducing them.
  • Host Rewards. As a host, you will earn gifts and/or discounted product with any sales from your show. It’s not at all unusual for a host to receive gifts of up to 100-200.00 worth of Norwex products.  See information on this below.
  • Get your house cleaned for free.  That sounds attractive doesn’t it?  You don’t need to get your home spotless before the party.  In fact, I want you to LEAVE SOME DIRT to clean up!
  • Food. It’s very typical, whenever people get together, to find that there is also some tasty food and beverage available.  Please don’t spend a lot of time cooking and baking.  Don’t over do it.  Some store-bought treats will do just fine as long as you have some chocolate for me.  Coffee, Tea, and water are just fine!

No other direct sales company that I know of has the level of high quality host benefits as Norwex.  Here’s how you get them.  Each way works independently of the other … it is not a tiered system.

  • Number of Buying Guests: You will earn free products if you have 5 or more buying guests. Even if they each just buy one thing, it all counts. More buying guests than 5? … you get even more!
  • Shopping Spree from Percentage of Sales: The shopping spree starts at 8% of the total party sales and goes up to 12% depending on the size of the party.  If your party has sales of $500 you get a $50 shopping spree! That will get you a superior mop system at almost half price!
  • Free Window Cloth: Every booking your party gets you will get a window cloth.  If you get two party bookings you get a window cloth and a reusable grocery bag! Window cloths are not just for windows … they work great on mirrors and glass table tops.  I love my window cloth!
  • Monthly Hostess Special: This is the main goal of most hosts, because it gets you the most free product. You must have one booking from your party and at least $350 in sales to qualify for the first level of free hostess products.

Now … let me ask you … Why in the world would you ever say NO to hosting a Norwex party?  

And then let me ask you: WOULD YOU LIKE TO BOOK A NORWEX PARTY WITH ME?  There, I asked you.  Resist the urge to say NO.  Say YES and join the fun.  You’ll be glad you did!

Have you hosted a Norwex party before?  Was it fun?  If not, what would keep you from hosting a Norwex party?  Please Comment below, contact me on my website, or message me on my Norwex Facebook Page.

Watch for my next post in which I’ll talk about the different ways to have a party.

Til next time,

Less Money! More Filling!

LindaBusinessCardFBI went grocery shopping last night, returning for the first time in over a year or more to the local and recently remodeled Aldis instead of the HyVee.  I like what they have done to the place and realized when I came home that I got a LOT of groceries for a fair amount LESS then they would have cost me at HyVee.  We have become used to shopping at HyVee where we enjoy the benefits of the “Fuel Saver” points that have saved us a ton of money on gas for the car.  We have rarely paid more than 1.00/gallon for gas and sometimes much less than that because we carefully watch the specials and take advantage of the fuel saver deals.  It comes down to spending less money for filling the stomach.  Or spending less money for filling the tank.   Such a dilemma!

Has anyone else reading this made a choice between the two … and why?  Perhaps you will let me know in your response.
