10 reasons being a Younique presenter is AWESOME:

10 reasons being a Younique presenter is AWESOME:

1. The Presenter's Kit - I am a makeup addict! I love makeup & the products that come in the Presenter's Kit are amazing. The kit has changed a couple of times since I have joined, and I must admit I'm pretty jealous of the current Presenter's Kit!

2. Work from anywhere - I love that Younique is set up so that I can do everything from my phone. I have always known that I wanted to be a stay at home mom. I love that I have found another way that I can earn money from home and still have plenty of time to spend with my kids.

3. Make new friends and reconnect with old ones - My sponsor is my best friend's sister-in-law. Although we kind of stayed in touch via Facebook, we have really reconnected because of Younique. I've also sponsored one of my colleagues from a previous job and again, it is so nice to be reconnected. Bedsides them, I have also made some new friends, whom I would not have known if not for Younique. Plus, we really communicate and get to know each other through our private Facebook group. I feel so blessed to know these women and have them in my life.

4. Guilt free Social Media - Now you don't have to feel bad about spending so much time on Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest or whatever your social media guilty pleasure is. You can run your Younique business entirely online through social media. My social media channel of choice for promoting Younique is Facebook. I like to share photos of my products and of the makeup looks I create with them.

5. Get paid almost instantly - Paid three hours after every single sale & after you make your first $50, you will be sent a Younique MasterCard/Visa Debit card.

6. You get to be your own boss - you can do as much or as little work as you like. Your schedule is totally up to you. Also, no more waiting for approval on your vacation time because you are the decision maker!

7. Unlimited income potential- You start off making 20% commission and as your sales grow you move up to different pay levels. Not only does your commission increase, but as you sponsor new presenters, you will start making a small percentage of their commissions as well.

8. Support - remember those Facebook groups I mentioned earlier? They are amazing for connecting with other presenters to ask questions, get updates, and encouragement. Not only are the presenters in your group super helpful, so is Younique corporate. If I have a question someone in my group cannot answer, I can reach out to the Younique corporate support and get a super fast and helpful answer. You also have me as your sponsor guiding you the whole way through!

9. Setting up your business is fast & easy - All you need to sign up to be a Younique Presenter and get started is a Facebook account. You just fill out your information, and your website is ready to go. Plus the website is really user friendly for both you as a presenter and for your customers to shop from. If you need help setting up a Facebook Fan page or other social media channels, there are plenty of easy to understand guides to get you started.

10. Cost - to become a Younique Presenter only requires a small one time fee of $99USD. This covers the cost of your website, your New Presenter's kit, and a few other business supplies. You never have to spend more than the $99USD. As long as you stay active, which means that you sell $125 of products in a rolling 3 month period, you get to stay a Presenter for as long as you like. There are also NO auto ships and NO website fees, unlike many other direct sales companies! You also get cash back on any orders you place for yourself which is a HUGE perk!

Bonus reason: it's fun! I absolutely love what I do! So, if you have been thinking about becoming a Younique presenter, I am confident it will change your life! If you already know a Younique Presenter, reach out to them. If you don't know a Younique presenter, I would love to sponsor you myself. You can always send me a message through my Facebook page. If you are not ready to join to yet, but would like to learn more, I am always happy to answer any questions you may have. If you know you want to invest in yourself, you can sign up here: https://www.youniqueproducts.com/NikkiWills/business/presenterinfo#.Vss1zZwrKUl

I look forward to having you be a part of my Younique family <3

Losing weight and feeling great!

An open letter to clothing retailers.

Dear clothing stores of the world,
   
    I can not begin to tell you how frustrated I am that, in DECEMBER, I can not find snow gear for my kids, ANYWHERE. While I appreciate that snow gear gets put out in fall so people can buy ahead of time and be prepared, I find it mind boggling that DURING the winter it is nowhere to be found.

   What if my child's snow suit rips and can not be repaired? Now I am up shit creek without a paddle, because every store is sold out of winter gear come November. Costco even goes as far as to put out winter gear in mid July. JULY!!! Give me a break people.

    Clearly, whoever is in charge of merchandising for these stores, does not have children. If you had children, you would know that us parents want to ring your necks. I can not find waterproof gloves, I can not find snow pants, I can not find winter jackets. It's not possible. If you had children, you would know that some kids are walking train wrecks. You would know that, due to being accident prone, some kids will rip their gear beyond repair. "Buy two in advance" you say? Sure. Would you like to give me the money to buy my kids two snow suits every year? It's not plausible.

   It's not your fault these kids should be bubble wrapped. I get it. I just don't understand WHY for the love of everything holy, can I not buy winter gear IN THE FREAKING WINTER??????? I know I can't be alone in this.

I am hoping that maybe this letter clicks for some retailers. Maybe next year, I will be able to buy replacement gloves, hats, snow pants, coats etc. without having to comb the entire planet.

Sincerely,

Frustrated parents everywhere

It's been a while!

Hello friends! I know it's been long between posts, but I have been super busy! Recently, I started my own little business called Elite TuTu Boutique. I make custom TuTu skirts and gowns! Please have a visit to my business page http://www.facebook.com/EliteTuTuBoutique and like and share if you please!! Here is a sneak peak at some of my work :) See my page for more!

Raise the Wage

I think it's ignorant to assume these employees have no education or skills. I know people who work at McDonald's bc their husbands are in the army and McDonald's is flexible with their hours so they can work AND manage home life while their spouses are gone. Even bank tellers only make $11 /hour if they are lucky and that is not because it is a job that requires no skill, that is because the bank would rather award their executives with bonuses biggerthan their actual salaries than pay better wages to the people low on the roster. RBC cut CSR hours in our district from 37.5 to 34 hrs so they wouldn't be considered full time. They said it was the economy. That same year, the CEO Gord Nixon got a $5million bonus. It's all greed. "Happy wife, happy life"? "Happy employees, happy business".


Full time employees should be compensated as such. I would rather work at McDonald's than have no job at all but people need to live. Then employers get mad when their employees have to get more than one job to make ends meet. They get mad because they have to co-ordinate the employee's schedule with another employer, but if they got paid better this wouldn't be needed. Even 15-17 year old employees need to possibly save for post secondary education.If they got paid a better wage, maybe they wouldn't need student loans and would be able to start their adult lives with less debt.

Apparently OPP says now we can use our cars as weapons with no repercussions.

While merging onto the eastbound QEW at Burloak at about 6am this morning, my friend and her husband were purposely rammed from behind TWICE by a transport truck. 

"Ever been INTENTIONALLY rear-ended by a transport truck? And that is how our drive into work started today... Sigh. Stu merged onto the highway (with adequate space),
buddy threw on his high beams and then proceeded to follow way too close to us,and then when given the finger for doing so, slam into the back of us - not once, but twice. Great start to the day..."was her facebook status.

She then went on to write "What a joke!!! He's being found "at fault" but isn't being charged with anything.Apparently we can all use our vehicles as weapons, and get away with it by simply denying that you meant to do it. Incredibly disappointed with the OPP on this one!!!" 

I should add that their car was deemed undriveable and that Stu was told that if the other guy was charged that he would be too. Apparently flipping the bird is justification for hitting someone with a large vehicle?

So if someone flips me the bird, can I shoot them in the foot?

The truck said Ruan Transport on the side of it and the driver was from Illinois. Welcome to Canada, where you can use your vehicle as a weapon and not be penalized for it.

Who ever decided that this guy was not to be charged should be written up. What a poor precedent to set!

They could have been seriously injured or killed.

Do you think this guy learned his lesson? Doubtful.

I am asking my readers to share this post far and wide. Tweet, FB, email...we need to make noise about this or things like this will continue to happen.

G free for a healthier me

I have finally made the choice to go Gluten Free! I have thought about it for the past 6 years. After my recent struggles with continuous weight gain despite my best efforts to lose, I have made the change.

Today was my first weight in, with a result of 202lbs. I have started a new My Fitness Pal profile since I am starting from square one.

I will keep everyone updated.

My struggle with weight gain

I have been struggling with my weight since having my daughter 4 years ago. I am 199lbs and completely stuck. I have tried everything, weight watchers, my fitness pal, walking 5km a day...yea...with no loss.

My doctor recently referred me to the Wharton Clinic, a medically monitored weight-loss clinic. So far it has been a total waste of time. I have been going for two months and haven't even been given my meal plan yet. I hate to quit but I am going to. In the gas I pay, parking fees and frustration it just isn't worth it.

I have an IUD and I have been saying for the past few years that it is the link to why I can't lose weight but my doctor says it is slim to none that this is the case. I have done a lot of research (on the suggestion of my sister) and I have to disagree with my doctor. I plan to have it removed in the near future so we will see if my hard work actually starts paying off and then I will know for sure.

Dear CBS,

I get that Big Brother is a reality show and sometimes we might see things we don't like. That being said, I am so disappointed in production for allowing Amanda to continue in the game after all the stuff she has done. If you have to hide all the sharp objects in the house from someone, maybe it's time for them to be expelled. She is WORSE than Willie. She just slammed that storage door open intending for it to hit Elissa. The fact that it didn't was pure luck.

I have watched Big Brother since day one and I have never seen anyone this bad in the house. I love the show but this season has been a complete cluster fuck, pardon the language, between the racism and the bullying. We are trying to teach our children that bullying is wrong and Big Brother is glorifying it by allowing this to continue, reality TV or not.

The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy. ~Martin Luther King, Jr.

We clearly see where you stand. Is that the message you want to give the world?

Customer Service FAIL: TLC Pet Food edition

Nikki Wills

cancelled our account with @tlcpetfood CSR Lindsay was really rude and out to prove me wrong. Unfortunate since we like the product.

Refused to take any ownership of my issue. This was my first ever complaint. I thought she might try to keep our business but didn't seem bothered that we cancelled. That is bad practice. If that keeps up you will end up with no clients.

TLC Pet Food

 

Hi Nikki. We are very sorry to hear about your issues and would love to have you stay on with TLC. We pride ourselves on our customer service and Lindsay has received nothing but positive feedback from customers. We understand that it wasn't really a complaint and you ordered more food than you needed. As always, we are more than happy to refund your order once you return it. TLC wants your business and we appreciate all of our customers. You can't have the type of success and growth that we have enjoyed since 1994 without the best products and the best service. We are sorry you are upset and will have a manager contact you to discuss further. Thank you Nikki for your business and we hope that we can work things out

Nikki Wills

The problem was it wasn't supposed to come for 30 weeks. I found the process of changing the date confusing. I had asked if this one time you would absorb the shipping cost since it was clearly a case of misunderstanding. Lindsay refused, didn't make me feel like my business is valued and was quite abrupt. If this was a running thing with me then no, I could see her saying no sorry it's a valid fee/policy but as this was my first complaint and I was clearly confused, good customer service would have explained the process and as a one time courtesy, credit my account the cost of shipping. I worked for the biggest bank in Canada for 8 years until recently starting my own business. Never would I blame my clients for anything. Always take ownership and educate my clients. Without clients I would not be in bisiness.

TLC Pet Food

Thanks Nikki. I understand your dilemma and want to be fair. Having worked at the bank and owning your own business you understand that there are costs. The bank has made it an art form to charge customers for everything and good luck getting those fees back from customers. You can imagine what would happen if we allowed people to order the food and we had to pay for all of the returns. We would be bankrupt. We have incredible customer service and receive compliments daily. We are a customer service driven company where you can reach a human. Good customer service is not just giving in. It is not a matter of blaming clients. We give customers their own management tools that are very intuitive, however, that also comes with some responsibility on the customers part. You will learn this as your company grows. If you would like to return the product, we will split the cost of the return with you. Please let us know prior to sending it back and we will issue you a Return Authorization Number. Thanks Nikki.

Actually, TLC Pet Food, when I worked for the bank (who turned a 2.3 billion dollar profit in their 3rd quarter alone), CSR's at the "lowest level" authorization, were given the discretion of up to a certain amount (pretty high amount) to refund client fees without needing a manager override. We were trained not to fight clients who were upset about fees. If a client was polite and was in good standing we could reverse almost any fee up to 90 days backdated. If a client wasn't chronic in incurring fees and then complaining/asking to have them reversed, we would reverse them and apologize for inconvenience. So don't tell me that giving in to clients makes a company lose money.

Again, if I called every month and asked for fees to be reversed, then no, I shouldn't get what I want just because I am a client. However, since I am a good client who never missed a payment and has referred friends and family to the program (I even had a link to the website in my email signature and on my blog page and shared it frequently with my 323 twitter followers) it would have been a better business choice to absorb the shipping cost, with the understanding that it was a one time courtesy only.

Then, you go on to say,  you have "incredible customer service" but contradict that statement by saying you can't afford to "give in" to your customers. We know that the customer is NOT always right, in reality, BUT if you look at BIG businesses like the one I worked for you will see that they teach their staff that sometimes you have to give a little to receive a lot. THIS is the model I use in my own business and I have tripled my cliental in one year.
