Message from Presidential Diamond Sandy Durre
Welcome to our very first Boomer News. It is my hope that each month we are able to share each others successes, tips and tricks for success as a unit.
The plan is to have a way that we can all learn and start connected on another level. I first wanted to start off by sharing my story with all of you. I feel that is
the best way for you to get to know me.
First off Hi my name is Sandy Durre, I live in Roanoke IN and I am married to Chad, I have a son, Austin, 17 and a step son, Jacob,14. Before It Works! my life was very different. I'm going to go back a little because I want everyone to see that no matter what their past was like, it was jut preparing you for your future. Life was hard when I was a kid. I had a dad that didn't want me, gave me up for adoption, a mom that was always angry and never really told us she loved us. I had 3 different step dads in my life and mom was very strick. By the time I was 18 I was pregnant, married and then divorced by the time I was 21. I dropped out of college, I had no idea what I was going to do, didn't feel like I was worth anything. No one ever told me I was GOOD ENOUGH. No one ever said you CAN DO MORE. No one ever said why don't you GIVE IT A SHOT. Until 2004 when I met Chad, at the time I was working as a waitress working crazy hours, I still don't know how I managed to raise a son then, life was a blur, just going through the motions, and at times I was very selfish. Then one day Chad says to me, "I KNOW you CAN do better then this. I BELIEVE in you! " That one statement changed my life forever and I didn't even know it then. He's faith in me gave me the courage to DO MORE... BE MORE.. GO FOR MORE.. DREAM MORE! I got out of the world of waitressing, went into banking, it was during this time is when I was offered a job at State Farm. That was the hardest job I ever had to train and test for. Failurs happen, but they don't have to define us. It took me a total of 7 attempts to pass those Indiana State Board tests. I could have given up and quit after the 1st fail, the 3rd fail even the 6th fail, but I didn't!!! I know I could do it, because Pat, my boss, said I could, and if he believed in me, then I better!
Just because you fail at something doesn't mean you won't succeed too! You just can't give up! DON'T GIVE UP!! You never know when your time will come and then success is YOURS! I passed that test, was the best at what I did in the office. Made a great friend, this friend invited me to an event one night, a fundraiser. God works in ways we don't alwys understand, HE had a plan for me from the day I was born, every moment in life, every up and down I went through brought me to this moment at that event...... I FOUND IT WORKS GLOBAL!!!I didn't know then that my life was going to be changed FOREVER, my future was going to be changed FOREVER, all I knew at that moment was I wanted to try this Wrap, to see if it really worked, and IT DID! Now, mind you when I was working at State Farm, things were not great for us. We were living pay check to pay check, we were borrowing money from the line of credit to pay the bills, and if there wasn't enough there we overdrew our accounts, and if that wasn't enough we charged things. None of this was helping us get ahead in our life. There were times I couldn't go to the grocery store, we didn't have the money. I was lucky if I could go once a month to the store. When the kids needed clothes, they had to wait for the layaway to be paid off. I will be honest and my husband didn't know how bad it was, I don't think we would have made it much longer if I hadn't found It Works! when I did. NO we didn't have the $100 to get started, but I took it from the mortgage payment because I had a feeling something was about to change forever. I had NO CLUE what I was doing. I'm not a leader, I'm not a business owner. I had never tried Network Marketing before. What I did know is I was pretty good on th computer, and I could hand out a coupon. That's all I needed to know. So, I joined! I took a leap of faith, believed I could do it. I was sick and tired of being sick and tired. I was over being broke!!! OVER IT! Lisa Fuller told me, give me 3-5 years and I will change your life. What she didn't know was she changed it on February 18th, 2012! You don't have to know ANYTHING about It Works or network marketing to be successful. If you have a hungry to make a difference you're on the right path. My It Works journey at times has been a fast one, frustrating one, exciting one, sad one, but always better then where I was before. I didn't have a lot of friends coming into this, I didn't know what my family would think, but what I did know was I was going to give it a good solid shot! February 18th, 2012 was my start date, by the 28th I was a Ruby. I don't know how I did it other then I took off running. I asked a lot of favors, I posted DAILY 10 times a day... yes a bit crazy but it worked. I asked strangers to have a party. I was so scared when I had to do it alone. Lisa lived 2.5 hrs away from me, she only helped me with a party once, then I was on my own. Sink or swim... but really, only WE know if we sink right? The guests have no idea, because we are the exports. By April 2012, I hit DIAMOND and earned the 1st ever $10,000 Diamond Bonus (first year they offered it). Same thing, I just flat out asked people to join me, I was still posting 10x a day or more on Facebook. In August 2012 I hit DOUBLE DIAMOND. The team I had at that time was on fire, they were out there doing the same thing I was, NONE of us really knew WHAT we were doing just that we needed to share this amazing company. We were excited, we were driven, we wanted more, we wanted what we didn't have.... FREEDOM & PEACE OF MIND. That's what pushed us! We had FAITH in It Works Global and their vision. There were many ups and downs during this time. Believe me. My family does not and did not suppot what I as doing. My sister would make snide remarks on my posts. They will say things to me because I was missing birthday parties or family gatherings. But what they didn't understand is the earlier sacrifices were worth it to me, because I knew one day I wouldn't HAVE to make ANY sacrifices EVER again. My husband and boys knew where I was going and what this company was going to do for us. It's been 3.5 years, and I still don't have the support from my family and friends I had hoped I would have. In June of 2013, I quit my job at State Farm to all ALL IN with It Works!!! In November of 2013 I promoted to Triple Diamond and earnd a $2500 Christmas Bonus. Again the amazing team I had at that time was out there working their butts off, they had BIG DREAMS and they wanted more. The craziest part about my journey, is, the majority of the people who started with me and had big dreams and wanted more, have QUIT, yes they quit and are no longer with the team. It's ok! I have to be ok with that. Because I am STILL DREAMING BIG and I will never quit on you, and I will never quit on my family! I know where I want to go, and I want anyone who is with me, to go with me! I will take you all as far as you want to go!! It's your DREAMS I want to see come true!! By April 2015, I finally hit Presidential Diamond and earned the $50,000 Bonus. But never have I done this alone, all of you have been apart of this journey, no matter if your journey with us has only beena few months or a few years. Everyone plays apart in the success of others. I have no doubt that whereever you all came from, your pasts, your futures, your right now, I can tell you, if you NEVER GIVE UP, YOU NEVER QUIT....... YOU WILL ALWAYS WIN!!
-Love, Sandy Durre
TIPS FROM THE TOP: DIAMOND LEADER TINA AUMSBAUGHCatalog Party's! By: Tina Aumsbaugh
Who needs volume? We all do! We hustle to get parties scheduled, but sometimes it's hard to get people to commit!! Sometimes we are just desperate! That's where catalog parties come in to play! Catalog parties are a great hands off way to get volume! You can post on Facebook requesting people to have a catalog party for you or you can private message random people on social media! Another great thing you can do is ask your Loyal Customers to have a catalog party
for you...LC's are my favorite people to ask because they already have product testimonies!So what is a catalog party?
Here's what I do for my catalog parties:I get a black plastic folder that zips and inside I put the flowing things:
2 product catalogs 1 Instruction sheet
2 blitz cards 1 DT form
4 loyal customer forms 1 pen
1 party padI then give the hostess one week to either find four loyal customers or one distributor! By doing so, they get a free wrap
of their choice! If they are only able to get a couple loyal customers, I then give them a discounted wrap, if they get a distributor, I offer the business opportunity and explain to them that they already earned their $99 back from their
business builder kit because they will get a $99 fast start bonus for that DT! If they sign a 4 loyal customers I also present the business opp to them and tell them about the $120 in free product credit and two wrap rewards that they
will get as a DT for signing those loyal customers! I have had three catalog parties already with success!
I hope you guys all try this out and I can't wait to hear about your progress! Diamond leader Tina Aumsbaugh

LOVE FROM TINA AUMSBAUGH
SHOUT OUTS FROM DOUBLE DIAMOND TRISHA ECKMAN
For Cali girls ~ I just want to give our Cali girls a special thanks. Lori Mathis for running us around all weekend, allowing us to stay at her
home and for helping us with training in Fresno on Saturday. I want to thank Beverly Gervasi, Krystal-Ann Rigsby, and Arlene Luchok for
driving 4.5-5 hours for training in Fresno. Our California team is amazing and I love them all very much and appreciate all of their hard
work.
Tyanna Radabaugh-Haines & Aaron Arrendale are two new comers to our business that have totally blown me away in their first month. I am so excited to watch them unfold into beautiful leaders on this
team.
Alexis Ogle and Aubrey Mills have been with us for a couple of months now. Alexis took off really well and then had a slow period. She didn’t let it get her
down, instead she reached out to myself and another leader on what she could do to better herself. In doing that she ended the month of August with
an amazing party. And Aubrey Mills joined us and struggled a little in the beginning but stuck it out with us thank goodness, and is totally taking off and rocking this crazy wrap thing!! I am so very proud of both of them for staying plugged in with their up lines. Aubrey Mills doesn’t miss a call or a
beat on our team page.
I just wanted to welcome Nancy Coffman back to our team. She took some needed time off to find herself and to figure out
exactly what she wanted. She decided It Works was for her after all. I look forward to watching her grow in this business. I
can’t wait to see where this business takes her.

Wo
Honestly, I feel like self development is one of the most important things that we can do for our businesses and our lives!
When I first started this business I was the shyest person ever! I would walk into a room wondering if people liked me, I would then sit in the corner and not talk to a
soul because I was SO nervous!
When I joined It Works 2-1/2 years ago, I was told how important self development was, but it took me nine months before I really took self development seriously!
The first self development book I ever read was The Secret By Rhonda Byrne and I can honestly say it was a game changer! I became a more positive person and I started believing in myself! After that, my goals an dreams were coming true!
I don't want to tell you what The Secret is all about, but I do want you all to read it!
