Tales of a Jewelryholic

Jewelry is my addiction, and silver is my drug of choice.

So in the attempt to find something that would help me financially and feed that need, I stumbled upon Silpada! (http://www.silpada.com) Not wanting to be too impulsive :-) I first heard of Silpada years ago from a friend, and I guess it was always just humming in the back of my mind. The fact that I have no direct sales experience, and that my expertise runs more in software support....well that shouldn't matter, right?

This first week has been a whirlwind: meeting new people, finding out how great and supportive my friends and family are, setting up my new business....and of course, there is the jewelry.

My sponsor Amy has been enthusiastic and supportive, and is a great coach! She really helps me to believe I can make of this whatever I decide to....and there's the rub.

I discussed this adventure with my friend Nancy, who gives great advice and has experience in direct sales and all that it requires to be successful. She said of course I would be a success at this, "it just depends on how much you are willing to apply yourself."

Well.....we will just have to wait and see!
