two small children when I became a single mom. It gave me the flexi'TI

bilicy I needed to choose the hours I worked so that I could provide ITI r- the specialized speech therapy my son required. Watkins pulled me IC OUt of a very difficult time and today, both my son and daughter are a

big help to me in my business. They, along with my husband Carl, are the first to be involved and to encourage our success always-this is truly a family business.

Kim & Glenn Macleod-Gallant By doing Good Tastings events to grow my Watkins business I have been able to afford the little extras and earn trips to places I vvould otherwise not have been able to see. My husband Glenn and I have traveled to Ireland-the land of castles, rolling hills and rock walls covered in lush ivy-and to a tropical paradise which boasts the world's best deep-sea fishing , whale watching, and awesome sunsets-San Jose del Cabo, Mexico.

Teresa Carosella I was instantly captivated by Watkins products and the company's history I fell hopelessly in love with the products, and knew in my heart that this business was wonderfully different from the rest. The daydreams of making Watkins my successful home business wouldn't leave me , so I signed up. I went on to become a Manager, build a team, earn a nip, buy a new house, have a third baby and achieve much personal growth and happiness. I love being able to schedule my work around my family I know Watkins will help us send our three boys to college, and provide income for our retirement.
