HOME BUSINESS OFFERS REFUGE FROM RECESSION
Local Entrepreneur Enjoys Flexibility and Financial Stability

Downriver, Michigan – June 29th, 2009 – The latest economic indicators for May bring some hopeful tidings, but also some significant concerns. The U.S. unemployment rate is as high as it has been in 25 years, and there is continued concern about sizable job losses to come. The recession has been a source of severe stress for many throughout the country.

According to the recent Multi-Sponsor Surveys’ 2009 Economic Impact Market Segmentation Study, 49% of employed adults expressed worry about potential job loss, while 32% admitted to “significant” financial troubles.

But amid numerous reports of havoc and despair created by the current economic climate, John Pastor Jr., & Linda Vorves Pastor, local small-business entrepreneurs here in Southgate/Wyandotte report a very different experience during this recession.

“If it weren’t for the additional income our health-and-wellness business generates, I think my family would probably be in a very different place,” says Linda Vorves Pastor, a retired licensed nurse, who operates a Shaklee business out of her home.

“Our business helps us not only continue to pay the bills on time, but it also generates additional income which we save to have on hand for unexpected situations, or use when we want to do something special, like take a trip, buy a new car, or remodel the kitchen—things that would otherwise be outside of our budget. Plus we are able to help our eldest son through long-term unemployment issues.”

John and Linda credit their Shaklee home business for helping to alleviate much of their family’s stress and John says, “This business has eased financial concerns while providing flexibility—qualities that can insulate a family from the changing tides of the economy. Most people who run a business from home work only part time, so there’s freedom to plan business activities around the busy schedule of a young family.”

“When I began this business as an independent representative, nearly five years ago,” says Linda, “it was on a very part-time basis. Since I started, I’ve increased the amount of time I spend working with it. Using the Internet and communicating my business online makes my work much more efficient and flexible at the same time, making it possible for me to work on my business pretty much whenever I have downtime from other responsibilities. Plus, it was easy and inexpensive to get started, and there’s no need to make space in our home for any inventory since the company ships directly to my customers.”

Home businesses have drawn considerable interest from people who may be having a difficult time finding employment and from those looking for an income opportunity that also resonates with their personal beliefs—characteristics that most jobs likely do not offer.

“Because we recommend products that help people to be healthier, that help our environment to be cleaner, and for homes to be safer, we feel good about what we do. And because we also offer the chance for other people to do what we’re doing—to achieve independence in a way they may not have thought possible—there’s an incredible feeling of satisfaction in knowing that we can help make a real difference for people looking for extra income right now,” Linda sums it all up.

According to the 2009 Economic Impact Market Segmentation Study, 60% of adults are now interested in operating a home business in response to the economic downturn.

“To me, there’s a great sense of security knowing that my business is backed by a company that has a proven track record and more than 50 years of experience giving people the means to thrive, even during the most difficult economic times,” says Pastor. “Shaklee has grown during each of the prior recessions since it was founded in 1956 and we are proud to work in a Global market.”

How Can You Protect Yourself from Swine Flu?

On June 11, 2009, the World Health Organization (WHO) raised a worldwide pandemic alert level to Phase 6 in response to the on-going global spread of the influenza A (H1N1) virus.

A Phase 6 designation indicates that a global pandemic is underway.

How worried should you be? Should you panic? Take drastic measures?

I don't know, but if you are not following a good Shaklee nutritional program, you ABSOUTLEY need to reduce your risk of infection. Being proactive in your health gives you substantial protection.

Note: Viruses and bacteria normally don’t usually give advance warnings. But now you have time to make certain adjustments and have a stronger immune system within 2 weeks.

A strong and healthy immune system is more resistant to illnesses. But if you do get sick, your symptoms are not as severe, and your recovery will be faster. Bottom line--prevention is key. Ok, so maybe you are healthy, but how about your 90 year old grandma, or your newborn, or cousin Bill who has asthma?

This new version of swine flu can be dangerous especially for people with respiratory illness or other underlying conditions. What makes this version of swine flu different is that it seems to have picked up genes from bird, swine, and human flu bugs. It’s a type of hybrid.

Swine Flu symptoms are very similar to standard flu symptoms. It takes a standard lab test to confirm Swine Flu (H1N1). Prevention is your best action. A stronger body is more resistant, and a strong body can fight back more effectively if struck with the virus.

(I know all about the Swine Flu, my son Dan had it in 1976, the last time it was in Michigan. He was just 9 months old. He went into a coma, and nearly died. Thanks to prayers, and good medical attention, he lived. We were Blessed.)

Here’s what I suggest you do:

1) Make sure that you are on the Shaklee RX for Life, including Nutriferon. This program has all the basic elements of good prevention. Vivix and Nutriferon both have immune strengthening properties. The protein in the Cinch program builds healthy immune cells also, and the Caroto-E-Omega (CEO) helps keep the membranes inside your nose, mouth and eyes healthier and more resilient to viruses.

You save $90+ each month on this program. Upgrade to Gold Ambassador, and with 2 members of the family on the program, you will get a rebate of at least $50/month on top of the other savings.

Being a Gold Ambassador, may make this tax deductible for you as well.

If you have a large family, make sure that you keep extra Immunity Formula I and Vita-C on hand for them. Rx for Life is preferred, but Vita-lea, Formula I and Vita-C will give a measure of protection as well.

2) Have some Basic H2 and Basic-G in the house. Use them to wash door knobs, sanitize surfaces, and to kill pathogens in the laundry. They are both safe around children and pets. And BasicG is verified to kill some strains of the flu virus, salmonella and 38 other pathogens. Keep BasicG wipes in your car and purse for grocery carts and public bathrooms. Grocery cart handles are especially germy [just think of babies and wet diapers sitting on those carts].

3) Drink 8-8 ounce glasses of water. Your body uses water in part to flush out viruses and bacteria.

4) Get good exercise! Shoot for 8-10,000 steps a day. Exercise strengthens your immune system.

5) Eat over 50% of your diet in raw fruits and vegetables.

6) Do not share your germs. If you are feeling sick, stay home. Swine flu is contagious hours before you have symptoms. Avoid personal contact with someone who is sick. Anyone who knows me knows that I do not shake hands. WASH YOUR HANDS OFTEN!, but watch the hand sanitizers, they can be toxic, especially for children.

7) Cut back on sugar. Sugar lowers your immunity by 30%! Use the savings on soda, candy, cookies and junk food to purchase your Shaklee nutrition.

8 ) Keep extra Nutriferon and Shaklee Defend & Resist on hand. As soon as you start to feel sick, start with the Defend & Resist. When you are sick, you can double or triple the Nutriferon you are taking. Get better in 3 days instead of 7.

9) Get an AirSource. It reduces pathogens and molds in your home. If you are a Gold Ambassador, your net cost is as low as $500 and could be tax deductible.

You may think Shaklee is expensive, but what is your life, or your child's life worth? Cheaper brands will not give you the same results. Check out the Landmark study on supplementation if you have doubts.

In addition to strengthening your immune system, and lowering your risk of swine flu, you will also accomplish the following:-sleep better, have a reduction of food cravings, experience better concentration, lower cholesterol and blood pressure levels, lose weight, have more energy and vitality, see improvements in your skin, lower risks of all diseases, balance blood sugar, and have fewer doctor’s appointments.

Blessings,

Linda

Dr. Forest C. Shaklee; visionary, entrepreneur, hero.

This is our own, Dr. Shaklee's Story:
Chiropractor. Inventor. Visionary. Entrepreneur. Author. Radio Personality. Dr. Forrest C. Shaklee succeeded in a number of roles during his lifetime. A true original, Dr. Shaklee was and still is an inspiration to thousands and thousands of Shaklee Members worldwide.
Born in Iowa in 1894, Forrest C. Shaklee had tuberculosis as an infant. His parents were told that he would likely suffer a long and horrible death during his childhood. [Little did they know that this sickly child would become a successful chiropractor and business owner and live for more than ninety years!]
In the late 1800s, the only known cure for tuberculosis was good food, fresh air, and lots of rest. As a result, young Forrest spent a lot of time outdoors enjoying and exploring nature and developing a deep respect for the world around him. This respect would inspire him to create his own nutritional product company, The Shaklee Corporation in 1956. He based this company on the Golden Rule.
As a chiropractor, Dr. Shaklee began selling food supplement formulas in 1924 in Iowa. By 1956, he had decided to take his food supplement formulas across North America by way of network marketing with help from his sons Forrest Jr. and Raleigh Shaklee.
In 1960, Dr. Shaklee developed Basic-H®, one of the first biodegradable, all-purpose cleaners. Shaklee now has over 200 products including nutritional supplements, an anti-aging tonic, personal care products, colour cosmetics, water and air treatment systems, and household cleaners.
Dr. Shaklee’s vision for a healthier tomorrow has lead to a half a billion dollars in sales worldwide and offices in a number of countries around the world, including Canada, the United States, Mexico, Malaysia, Taiwan and Japan.
