November Spotlight Renee Pierce

My Name is Renee Pierce, I live in Boise Idaho and work the 9-5 job, 5 days a week, and make close to nothing. I was introduced to Jewel Kade over a year ago, It was love at first sight!! I kept catalogs everywhere; work desk, car, purse, night stand, even in my husbands softball bag...Weird?? Yes....but I loved it and looked at the catalogs all the time...I couldn't get enough. I had a few parties and just didn't know if I wanted to sell. I don't have a huge social circle and no family in Boise. One day on my way to work I told my husband I was ready to retire. He laughed, probably thinking, "yeah right!!" Only to lead into the next part of the conversation about how I wanted to go visit family in California. He started to interrupt me, saying all he was hearing was, "I want, I want, I want!" My husband is an amazing man who would do anything for us, so I couldn't believe he was saying this to me.. All I could think was I needed a better job where I make more money; but I have no education and don't ever plan on going back to school. I needed to do something I loved and was passionate about. That morning Jenny Cottle (JK Crystal Leader) called me and said, " let's book your party. " JK is doing an hourly drawing to anyone that books today. It was like a sign. I booked my party and signed up that day!! But I will say, every day I kick myself in the butt thinking I should've done this a

year ago. However, this is my time and I'm going to bring this to every person I come in contact with. I feel so lucky to have been given this great opportunity. Boise is pretty much an untouched market it's up to me to make this work...and if it doesn't I have no one to blame but myself. I can't quit!! How awful would it be if I did!?! Let's say I did give up, and a year from now I'm invited to someone's JK party who's rocked out this area, I'm going to sit, probably cry, then leave thinking this could have been me!! I have only been a stylist for about 3 months and I have a great party schedule!! I realized that I will make more in three parties than I do in a two week pay period!!! I can't wait to see what lies ahead. I will never be able to repay Jenny for introducing me to Jewel Kade, and Sophia for all the amazing ideas and advice on how to grow my business. I tell my coworkers every day, "you guys will be able to say you knew Renee when she was working 9-5!" -Renee
