Top 10 Reasons I Love My Job!

This past weekend I was able to attend regional training in Layton! It was AWESOME!

Usborne Books is a great company, with a fantastic product, and I love being able to share it with others! They also announced that we are adding the Kane/Miller publishing to ours at EDC!!! These books are also incredible and will make an excellent addition to our product line! Some of their more popular titles include: Everyone Poops, The Gas We Pass, Who's Hiding, Wash Your Hands, Sophie's Big Bed, and I Want My Potty!

Very exciting stuff!!


As most of you know, last summer really sucked for me! I was more depressed than I have ever been in my life, and as I am slowly coming out of that, I can honestly say that Usborne has helped pull me out of that slump.

I have always wanted to be able to stay at home with my kids. My only jobs have been at daycare centers where I could take them with me, so luckily so far that has worked out. I never wanted to pursue a career where I had to leave my kids, and after last year I vowed I would definately never work at a job I hated again!
When I joined Usborne I had no idea if it was something I really wanted to pursue. Well, after about 9 months in the business, with some really busy times, and some really S-L-O-W times, I decided I am in it for the long haul! I believe it is a perfect fit for me and my family's needs!

We had some excellent training, won great prizes, made many new friends, and had a blast! I also had my picture taken with the CEO of Usborne, Randall White!

I am excited to be going into February with a mostly full calendar, and some great leads!!! So, without further ado...

Here are my Top 10 reasons I love my job (in no particular order):

1. I don't have to get up early!

2. I can still stay home with my kids!

3. I work the nights I want to, and my "shift" is only about 3 hrs!

4. I have built a great library for my kids and family!

5. Doing shows gives me that business edge, filled with success and accomplishment!

6. I make great friends!

7. I LOVE what I sell!

8. I get to enrich children's lives by promoting literacy & reading!

9. I can help contribute significantly to the family finances!

10. It gives me a night out a couple days a week, and it's fun!

How can I ask for more?
