| DeeDee |
|
|
- Hometown: Palatine, IL
- Details: A 1st grade teacher for 12 years; Now Paperly's Director of Field Development
- Recognition: Inducted into Paperly's inaugural President's Council; Graduate of Paperly's Future Leaders Program (Class #1)
- Greatest Enjoyment: "The challenge of owning my own business and meeting new, interesting people. I also enjoy helping (party) guests choose a style to match their personality or gift needs."
|
|
 |
|
- Don't be Afraid: DeeDee will readily admit that she was concerned her expertise in teaching might not translate into running her own business. Fortunately, DeeDee decided to step outside her comfort zone, and as she said, Paperly has helped her "learn so much about all aspects of business."
- Growth: DeeDee knows the Paperly experience has helped her grow personally and professionally in unexpected ways. In her own words, "I've become a more confident person."
|
|
|
| If you're in the Chicago area, DeeDee would be very happy to share her Paperly experiences with anyone interested in learning more. |

| Laura |
|
|
- Hometown: Greenville, SC
- Details: Employed full-time
- Special Stuff: Laura once drove 325 miles to conduct a Paperly party. Not only was the party a success, but Laura recruited a Paperly Consultant from it!
- Why Paperly: "I love the products!... My favorite part is delivering the products to the Hostess and hearing back from customers who love their products."
|
|
 |
|
- The Numbers: Laura holds, on average, 1-2 parties per month, selling around 16 products at each party. Her typical party is 2-3 hours on a weeknight, Saturday morning or Sunday afternoon. Her average commission from her parties exceeds $110.
- The Future: "I look forward to growing my business through booking more parties and adding members to my team of Consultants."
|
|
| If you're in South Carolina, Laura would be happy to work with you to host a Paperly party. She'd be the first to suggest that the best way to appreciate Paperly's potential earning power is to attend a party. |

| KarenS |
|
|
- Hometown: Rome, GA
- Details: Married, 2 children (+1 on the way), employed full-time
- Why Paperly: (1) She didn't want to *only* be identified as a mom and wife, (2) she always wanted to start her own business and (3) she knew it would be a great way to meet new friends!
- Leap Day Extraordinaire: On 02/29/12, Paperly offered a sale on its Starter Kit. Karen jumped all over the promotion and added 5 new teammates in 1 day. Wow!
- Favorite Products: "Although I have always had a passion for paper and do love Paperly's line of stationery, I adore Paperly's cutting board & platter. They both make fantastic gifts for a housewarming, wedding, Mother's Day, holidays or just because."
|
|
 |
|
- Biggest Hurdle: The learning curve! There are so many products and options, Karen says it can be daunting. Fortunately, she quickly learned it's okay to say, "I don't know, but I will find out." Customers will appreciate your honesty.
|
|
| When in Rome, do as all good Romans do... join one of Karen's Paperly parties. |

| KarenM |
|
|
- Hometown: Winter Garden, FL (just outside of Orlando)
- Details: Married, 2 beautiful daughters, employed full-time
- Proud Pioneer: Karen joined Paperly because she loved the idea of being one of the first to bring Paperly to Central Florida (and of course, she fell in love with Paperly's products too!)
- Compelling Reasons: "I love the flexibility that Paperly offers. As a busy mom and working full-time outside of the home, I make Paperly fit my schedule. I also appreciate the ongoing support from the home office and my fellow Consultants."
- Hardest Question: When asked to pick her favorite product, Karen's response was "Oh boy... that's like asking who is your favorite child!" When pressed, Karen says her "go to" products are flat note cards, notepads, cutting boards and picture frames. Hard to argue with those!
|
|
 |
|
- Advice to Newbies: Ask lots of questions, participate in all of the training calls and join the Consultant-only Facebook page.
- Dreams Do Come True: "It has always been a dream to own my own business and Paperly has helped make that dream a reality!"
|
|
| Next time you're in Central Florida, don't mickey or goofy around, instead contact Karen. She'd be happy to show you her Paperly wares. You'll certainly be impressed. |

| JJS |
|
|
- Hometown: Rome, GA (a teammate of KarenS – see above)
- Details: Married, 2 very busy school aged children, full-time criminal defense attorney
- Why Paperly? Reason #1: "Kids are expensive! ...Baseball, gymnastics and child care, we never have enough at the end of the month. My Paperly commissions will pay for our upcoming vacation to Disney World!"
- Why Paperly? Reason #2: "I want one of everything from Paperly's catalog, so getting a discount on the products is a definite bonus!"
- Freedom and Fun: JJ works hard on her Paperly business, but she readily admits it never feels like work. In her own words, "it feels like I get to go to parties and shop with girlfriends... all-the-while making money!"
|
|
 |
|
- What Do You Have to Lose: JJ added 5 teammates within weeks of joining Paperly herself. Her pitch is simple... she asks "Why not?" After all, friends and family always need thoughtful gifts, and Paperly's products are perfect. Plus, she feels good about inviting friends and family into Paperly's ground floor opportunity.
|
|
| JJ's favorite quote is "Enthusiasm on fire is better than knowledge on ice". JJ is always happy to share her enthusiasm with Consultants, Hostesses and customers, and she is a big Facebooker, so feel free to say hello. |
