the only thing is, there are lots of people out there who have been approached by women who lie and leave stuff out til they get you to sign into the business. my upline told me what i needed to know. she answered all my questions about what i would need to put inot the business to start, and i love it! if you ask quesitons, you will get answers. i love the line, love my team, and its not an avon business. its not amway, not a pyramid scheme. the world is changing, everyone wants to be healthier, and people want to change that huge percentage of americans who are obese and un-healthy. its sweeping the nation. with arbonne, we are just trying to let others know about the products, let others in on it, because hey.. when the botox and plastic surgery industry is in the billions, thats when im thinking maybe we could do it naturally. ask anyone about the business, research, but be carefull when you come across someone who was scammed by some manipulative woman and not told what she needed to know. some people can be thrown into one-sided madness very quickly.
