I always say my first grown up business success formula came from and was inspired by Mary Crowley, of Home Interiors.

business-success-formulaHer business success formula helped me win every trip and gift I aimed for with Home Interiors. I had the privilege of being in Mary Crowley’s home and meeting her personally as I was treated like royalty.

She was a caring business woman, who believed in people and who help develop my business sense by instilling her belief that I could become more, and help others become more than they were.

Direct selling, is what I learned.

–        The key characteristic of direct selling for me was the relationship between me as an independent contractor and my customer.

–        It was personal, supportive, and fun.

–        It was all about the customer. Read more
