Let's Set Things Straight...

A Pyramid Scheme is when distributors get money and rewards for recruiting other members. Pyramid schemes are illegal because they deliver a product that is not useful, and the ones at the top get all the money. They collapse because the product is not useful or lasting, and eventually they run out of recruits.

Multi-level marketing is when a distributor gets compensated for sales made by them and from their down-line or people they recruit.
Herbalife is founded on product sales, we don't get paid for recruiting.

Salesman: one is concerned about making the sale. They don't care about the person or even if the client needs that particular product.

Sharesman: One who shares information about a product, company, or business that they LOVE! They are enthusiastic and don't try to sell something you don't need. They are considerate of the person and focus on what they can do to benefit the customer.

I am a sharesperson with my PARTNERING company Herbalife Int. I LOVE the products they have so I share them with others, in hopes of changing their life like it has mine :)


So, let me do some updates about my journey :)


Throughout this last semester at BYU-Idaho, my main form of business has been Facebook posts and talking to people in my classes. I have handed out some fliers, and sent messages through Facebook about our natural energy drink, Liftoff. I got a new customer from that and gave out 11 samples of it. I am following up with them and hoping for some likes of it! My goal with the Liftoff is to help people who are addicted to energy drinks to start drinking a healthier alternative that still gives them good energy. I feel very strongly about what I do :)


For those who think being in the Network Marketing business is easy....guess again.
It is SIMPLE. Not easy.
If I want results then I have to put in the effort and talk to a LOT of people to find those who are ready for what I have to offer. Since I have been giving school my main focus my business hasn't grown very much, but the thing is...I know that it CAN grow to however big I want it, IF I am willing to put in the work.

I am grateful to know that I am a part of a company that has a proven compensation plan and incredible products that I love!!!

Product Spotlight! :)

This is our Formula 1 Total Meal Replacement shake!! This is an incredible product for our fast paced life!

Especially great for busy Mothers, college students, full time workers, those looking to lose weight, gain healthy weight, have more energy, or simply start eating healthier.

This has been a lifesaver for me! I have never felt this healthy in my life!!!


  • A quote from my younger brother: "Maryssa, you look really healthy!".


Well thanks David, I do feel healthy!

Doing my Best to Trust in God

I am finding that although I will work very hard on building my business, sometimes I don't see the immediate results of my efforts. This is when I have to rely on my Faith in my Savior to help me get through periods of not knowing, and waiting.

I have found that when I Trust Him, and pray for miracles, THEY HAPPEN!

I prayed today for money to use for my trip to Las Vegas for a Herbalife Training Seminar. So what happened is that my sister Aimee surprised me today by placing her order, thus giving me the money I need to use for gas!

Miracles happen when we pray fro help, sometimes unexpectedly, but the Lord will provide when we have faith in Him <3

Unexpected Miracles!

This is Nate Osburn. He is my very first Wellness Coach joining my team!!!

He has always been there for me throughout High School and I know that He is going to make a fantastic Coach! As I have been contacting people and looking for clients and coaches, I actually hadn't thought to ask him. It goes to show that the things we are looking for, come from unexpected places.

This past week I have also been trying to find as many people as I can that I can help get on their nutrition programs. All of the people that I have had in mind for that...hasn't happened yet. But unexpected things did happen.

My Grandma and Grandpa Palmer made an order yesterday, my Grandma got the shake and my Grandpa got on his weight loss program. I am so excited that I was able to help them get on the products they need while at the same time helping me ualify to be a Senior Consultant!!! This is the next step above being a member and I go from the 25% discount and retail profit to a 35%!!!

This was so exciting for me!!! My goal is to become a Supervisor level by this Friday. That will get me to 50% Retail profit and discount which will be so fantastic! I am so excited to be able to get started on all my wish list products with that discount! I love my career! I love helping people get healthy and I love working towards my goals :)

A new Beginning!

Today is the start of my Entrepreneurial Journey. Why is today the start and not 6 months ago when I "Started" my Herbalife business? I now have a new mindset about my business. I understand now how easy and simple it really is to be successful. It was all about my attitude!

When I first got started being a Wellness Coach, I was super excited..but I didn't know what to do! I felt like I wasn't knowledgable enough to be successful. I was scared to talk to people and friends about what I do. I didn't know if I would be able to say the right things.

What changed?

I read a book called GoPro: How to Become a Networkmarketing Professional.
This book has changed my life! I have read several books in the past but never has one made so much sense to me, and I have started applying the principles and guess what?! IT WORKS!!

I understand now that my job is not to be the "expert", my job is to share what I have with others and expose them to the products and the opportunity. I can use tools, meetings and product information to teach them about health rather han my trying to know everything. I was scared to look dumb if I said something wrong or made a mistake. Now I know that it is OK to mess up.

I also learned that since I have something that I know will be benefitial to others, it is selfish of me to keep it to myself. This has helped me to start opening up my mouth and just talk to people and invite them to look at the products, invite them to chck out the business.

I am so EXCITED to see where this new mind set can take me. I am ready to shoot for the Stars!!! Stay TUNED to see where I end up :) Or MESSAGE ME IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN JOINING IN THE FUN!!!
