Christina and Russ Thomas, Oregon

Allow me to introduce Christina and Russ Thomas. Here is their story:


“About a year and half ago Sheila asked us to look at Lyoness and attend a meeting.  We were skeptical and really didn't want to do it.  But since Sheila is a good personal friend and also very persistent, we reluctantly agreed to go to a Lyoness presentation with her.  After the presentation we were not convinced it was something we wanted to get involved with.  Consequently we did extensive research on Lyoness and made several inquiries.  Of course we found all the negative stuff that nay-sayers had to say.  We relayed the information to Sheila and cautioned her to not get heavily involved.  Sheila once again convinced us to attend another meeting.  At the second meeting we felt armed enough to challenge the presenter - Jim Richardson.  Jim was able to answer our concerns and disarm us :-).  
Slowly we started coming around and warming up to the fact that Lyoness is legitimate.  Sheila continued to work us and eventually convinced us to place units which making ourselves Premium members.  This was a HUGE step for us because both my husband and I have worked extremely hard to have reputations that speak to integrity.  He is a retired Police Chief and I'm a retired Human Resource Manager.  Both of our professions required absolute trust and honesty, and I'm happy to say all of our personal and professional relationships are built on that foundation.  I am happy to report that we have invited a number of people into Lyoness due to Sheila's continued enthusiasm and persistence. She has built an incredible team and I'm extremely happy for her and all the success she has enjoyed by becoming a level 4 in a short period of time.” 
We have put our concerns aside and we're fully onboard!  I'm currently working towards becoming an SME Coach so I can help grow this fantastic business.
