For years I had searched for a home-based business that could supplement our family income so that I could continue to stay at home with my children.
I had tried several home-based companies, paid to read emails, paid to do surveys, the wellness company, telemarketing at home (that was hard), surveys, bought many work at home directories and I was still was not able to make the income I needed to continue staying at home with our children.
I was very frustrated and I almost gave up and was considering working outside the home. But luckily, I found AmeriPlan® in July of 2003. I was so excited about AmeriPlan®. I researched the company and found out that Morely Safer, from 60 minutes, did a big special on them AND all the major pharmacies and vision centers were all with AmeriPlan®. Even my dentist was one of their provider! So, I knew the company was REAL! It was just going to be up to me. Do I want to work or do I want to sit and watch this amazing home-based company pass me by.
I then started to think, WHAT IF... I do very well with AmeriPlan® (like the thousands of people that are working for them). WHAT IF... this company gives me the FREEDOM I want and the money I want to continue staying at home with our children.
Besides, WHAT ELSE do I have going on right now that was going to get me out of debt and give the me the opportunity to be at home with my children.
So, I jumped in... rolled up my sleeves and started working hard immediately. For my efforts, I am now making a full-time income all from the comfort of my home. I am enjoying spending time with my children and remaining actively involved in their school and after school activities. I will never have to ask permission to attend any field trips.
It's funny how I was just looking for "a little thing to do on the internet." Well, that "little thing" has turned out to be a life changing experience.
Yes, my husband Michael was a little skeptical at first. He didn't see "the big picture." He watched me try several home-based businesses and he watched me work hard at those. He watched me lose money, but always stood by my conviction. Deep in my heart, I knew there was a "better way" and working for other people to make them rich was not what I wanted to do.
I don't mind working hard because at least the work that I'm doing right now, is for my family. Once you move up with AmeriPlan®, this is YOUR business. YOU are the CEO of your company. That means that it's 100% willable and sellable. Your loved ones will inherit YOUR business. It is very reassuring as a parent to know that our children will be financially set for the rest of their lives because we made a simply decision to start our AmeriPlan® business.

Kelly Fuller, National Sales Director
I began my search for work at home seven months before finding AmeriPlan®. My original goal was to make $100 per week at home to supplement my husband's income, cut down debt and quit living paycheck to paycheck. Just as I was about to give up on the fruitless search and wait tables one night a week, I found AmeriPlan®.
I didn't want to sell products and AmeriPlan® had more of a service, HEALTH BENEFITS. Now that's something I can get passionate about. I was excited.
So, off to work I went. No previous experience in work at home, 5 children and a stubborn will to not only make it, but make it big.
In our home, we no longer discuss paying down our debt. We now talk about how close my husband is to retiring and being home with the family.
Every IBO that starts with us, starts with a fantastic reason why they want to be working at home. Write it down. Refer to it often. You've taken the first step toward your goals. Work hard and consistantly for the best boss of all... YOU.
As your coach and support system, I look forward to working with you. Set your sights on the victory. We're cheering you on.

Ronald & Cindy Harms, National Sales Directors
I am a stay at home mom with 4 children (8, 5, 3 & 1). I quit my full-time job June of 2003 to be with my children. At that time, I was doing a different home-based business that I thought could take care of all of our financial needs. Boy was I wrong! Instead of taking care of our financial needs, it was taking our finances.
I had to find something different and then Janie Jones gave me a call. I signed-up with AmeriPlan® in July, but didn't really give it all I had to see what potential was out there. I would work the business when I needed a few extra hundred dollars. I knew I could get the money from AmeriPlan®.
Well, I've finally quit that other home business and am working solely on AmeriPlan®. Initially, it was just me working on AmeriPlan®, but my husband has seen the potential for AmeriPlan®. He has jumped on the band wagon and is putting flyers out everytime he goes somewhere. He is still working his full-time job, but hopefully will be able to quit that very soon! We both know AmeriPlan® is our dream come true.
I love the fact that I can be at home with my children and make a substantial income at the same time. If my 3 year old thinks we need to have homemade cookies, I can bake them in the morning and work on AmeriPlan® in the afternoon and evening. Not a problem. It's great to be able to be there for every moment with my children - I wouldn't change anything about my life right now!
AmeriPlan® is everything it's cracked up to be. Just give AmeriPlan® a few hours a day and you will reap the rewards. Our team is tremendous. The support is astronomical. I am proud to be part of such an awesome team and company. AmeriPlan® is just what we needed and I'm sure it will take care of you and your family as well. I look forward to seeing you soar to the top with the rest of us!
Pennie Berk, National Sales Director
After my first daughter was born, my priorities in life shifted. My husband and our home life were always the top priority, but my corporate career definitely took a back seat. In my heart, I really wanted to stay home with our daughter, but I felt guilty not bringing in an income. That's when my search for a work at home position began.
My goal was to find an opportunity that would allow me to replace a pretty substantial income while working from home exclusively on the Internet. Several other opportunities presented themselves but none delivered on their promise of financial security. In fact, I spent more time and money trying to get those opportunities to work then I did making money and spending time with the family.
After our last daughter was born, I found AmeriPlan™ and my search for the right opportunity finally came to an end. AmeriPlan™ was exactly what I was looking for!
My first 12 months in the business were amazing. Working just part time with a 4 year old and a 3 month old at home, I was able to move up to National Sales Director, the highest management level in the company. Several of my team members have also achieved National Sales Director in their first year of business. It is very rewarding to see those who you have helped move up and achieve their dreams as well. With the support and strength that our team has, it is no wonder why we are the fastest growing team in AmeriPlan™ today!
No other J-O-B or company I have ever worked with has allowed me to work exclusively from home, achieve 5 promotions in a year and a pay increase every single month! And the best part is that I am home for my family and I can work around their schedule. I can take my kindergartener to school and pick her up every day, while still receiving my paycheck.

Rebecca & Kelly Blacka, National Sales Directors
Wow! This company never ceases to amaze me! I signed up for AmeriPlan™ in the middle of December 2004 as a result of the begging and pleading of my sister, Sonja, to just "take a look." I will admit that I agreed to sign up simply so she would stop bugging me. Within a few days of signing up, though, I started to catch the vision and I haven't looked back since!
I reached RSD in month three and went on to achieve NSD by month eleven. I was able to quit my full-time job in May 2006 and come home to my children, having reached the 25k President's Club. I now work from home exclusively with AmeriPlan™ and cannot even begin to describe the incredible feeling of freedom I have with this company.
I would like to take this opportunity to say a special "thank you" to Sonja for not taking "no" for an answer and to my awesome team. I could not be where I am today without you! Each and every one of you has a dear place in my heart and I will do everything I possibly can to help you reach your goals! You guys are great! I am more excited about you reaching your income goals than I am for myself. Just knowing that I am working to make a difference in your lives is an overwhelming sense of accomplishment. I'm cheering for you and know you can have your dreams come true!
I would also like to thank my husband for supporting me in this venture. He was quite skeptical at first but let me follow my heart. He has helped tremendously around the house and with the kids and without him, there would be no clean clothes. :) I am glad we are in this business together and I'm looking forward to us spending the rest of our lives together.
And most importantly I would like to THANK GOD! Without Him, none of this is possible. The blessings He has given me through this business are immeasureable. I prayed for many years for an opportunity like this to come along and my prayers have been answered, far beyond my wildest belief!
Joy & Charlie Flake, National Sales Directors
My name is Joy Flake. My husband, Charlie, and I were introduced to AmeriPlan® in December 2004. We had been looking for affordable Dental benefits for our family and were ready to sign up as members. Becky Blacka who works with Charlie, encouraged me to consider the opportunity to work as an IBO. I had been looking for a work from home opportunity that truly allowed me to be here for my family and make a significant contribution to our income. I had tried one other home-based business in direct sales; doing home parties selling from a catalog. While I enjoyed the opportunity to meet people, and I loved the products, the end result was always that I had to be gone and I never made enough money to satisfy my goals. Our commitment for me to be home with our children meant sacrifices, and one of them was that Charlie often had to do side work to make ends meet. He often worked late into the evening and there was little time for him to spend with our family. I became determined to do something to enable him to be home with us. The more I considered what AmeriPlan® had to offer us the more I became convinced that this was a business that could truly enable us to accomplish our goals.
I became an IBO in March 2005 but due to circumstances was not able to put a lot of time into my business. I lost my enthusiasm and became discouraged when I never recruited anyone. Thankfully, Becky never gave up on me, she kept encouraging me to remember my WHY and helped me get plugged into team calls and get on the phone calling leads. I began to keep in touch with her weekly, sometimes daily and she worked closely with me to help me get my business rolling. I began to regain my enthusiasm and vision. I am so excited to see how God is using AmeriPlan® to help our family. I love being home with my children and working on my schedule and being together as a family more! I just made RSD and I'm confident that I can reach SRSD in 60 days! With God anything is possible! Thank you Becky and Sonja for all your teamwork and encouragement!
Regina Morris, National Sales Director
It's been an amazing 13 months! I am so proud to be an AmeriPlan® National Sales Director. It was definitely a journey to get to where I am now.
I work a full time job outside the home and I have a 7 year old son and a 4 year old daughter. My children need me to be at home with them more than any job needs me. My reasons for needing AmeriPlan® to work are obvious.
I have learned so much in the last 13 months. I know that success in AmeriPlan® is attainable to anyone who truly wants it. But to get that success you have to first believe in the company and believe in yourself. If you want to achieve a level of leadership in this company you have to first develop the leader within you and then develop the leaders around you. You do this by plugging into the training, by going to conventions, by reading/listening to books about leadership, and you must pick yourself up when you are down. I've had plenty of down days with AmeriPlan® - but I never once thought of quitting. Quitting was just never an option. I know in my heart the potential of AmeriPlan® and I just wanted to get it done right.
I was an IBO with this company for 6 weeks before I signed up anyone. I didn't make RSD until my 4th month. It was work. It was enjoyable, satisfying, exciting work - but it was still work. Once I started developing myself as a leader I noticed leaders developing under me. It was exciting to watch and now about 15% of my entire team has a title of RSD and above. You have to lead by example and keep the doors of communication open.
I have such an awesome team. They are all hard working and wonderful people. It is my privilege to have them on my team. They're not just business partners, but friends. I certainly would not be here today without them.
I definitely want to thank Wendy, Janie and Pennie and the entire FAH team for their support. I couldn't have done this without them.
A special thanks to Katherine, Dulsa and Pennie for their support with the GIDR team. You gals are awesome!
I want to also thank my husband for being so supportive. He's "Mr. Mom" at home now and he certainly understands and sees the positive impact that AmeriPlan® has had on our family. I will be able to quit my job in the fall of 2006 so I can be home with my family as well.
In the words of Emerson, "Do not go where the path may lead. Go instead where there is no path and leave a trail."
Stephanie Turner, National Sales Director
What a blessing AmeriPlan™ has been to our family!
I had tried many work-at-home opportunities over the ten-year period before I found AmeriPlan™. I had spent lots of money and put forth a great deal of time and effort trying to build a business. I had always dreamed of a "better life" and having control of my financial future. However, all I received in return was disappointment, humiliation and failure. My husband and I had made a pact, "never again".
However, just eight months after our son, Andrew, was born I was forced to put him into daycare and re-enter the workforce. I had always dreamed of being a stay-at-home mom and being the nurturing figure in my child's life was very important to me. Harsh reality had become a life of chaos! I spent my mornings in painful good-byes dropping Andrew off at daycare which inevitably ended in tears. I spent my days at a job that was unfulfilling, and difficult when I needed to take time off when Andrew was sick. And, I spent my evenings rushing through dinner, bath-time, and kisses goodnight. There was little pleasure! Once again, I found myself searching for something I could do to earn money from home - this is when I found AmeriPlan™!
AmeriPlan™ has truly changed our lives more than I could have ever dreamed possible!
My first 30 days...
I earned $1,300 my first 30 days with the company, and that was just working the business part-time because I was still juggling a full-time J-O-B and the needs of my husband and one-year-old son. I accomplished this with no college degree and no previous sales experience.
My first six-weeks...
I fired my boss just six weeks after signing up as a broker, which allowed me to once again be at home with Andrew. Now, I am there for all of the "big", and yes even all of the "little", moments of his life. And let me tell you, I am loving every precious moment!
My first six-months...
I earned the pin-level of National Sales Director in just six short months after signing up with AmeriPlan™. This was all made possible due to our amazing team members and incredible team leaders.
It is my passion to share this gift with anyone who possesses that desire for "change" in their own life. Everyone's dreams and goals are different in life; however AmeriPlan™ offers financial freedom to anyone willing to put forth effort. AmeriPlan™ offers this promise: if you work diligently 8-10 hours a week in 2 to 4 years you will have achieved a residual six-figure income.
I am a huge believer that AmeriPlan™ truly delivers on its promise. I know it has for me and my family and I know it will for you too!
Amy Jacobs, National Sales Director
I signed up for AmeriPlan® in January 2004, after searching 3 years for a legit opportunity from home. My WHY for being a work at home mom was and is to be a stay home mom. I can tell you from my experience your definitely in the right business, with the right team. I have been through so much, both bad and good, in the past few years, but no matter what I have always received tons of support and help from my upline and teammates.
My advice to you is go for the top. Since day 1 of signing up for AmeriPlan® I just wanted to be a National Sales Director. I knew every promotion I earned was one step closer to making it happen. Did I hit walls? Yes. Did I get frustrated? Yes. But quitting was never in my vocabulary "Don't Quit, Don't Give Up." In the beginning we all hit a learning curve but I feel that happens with anything new you try. Remember your big WHY. Write it down along with your goals.
You have so many great tool's available to help you on your journey. Take advantage & use them. You can do this. Go For Greatness. See you at the top!
Sonja & Ken Hicks, National Sales Director
I signed up AmeriPlan® on November 30th of 2004. I didn't really know what I was getting myself into. All I really know is that I wanted and needed a change in my life and in my current situation. It is now 1 year later and I am just 1 step away from the top management level of the company.
It has been an incredible journey and I have enjoyed every minute of it. Especially the friendships and relationships I have made along the way. My sister Becky was the first IBO I signed up into my business and it has been a joy and a thrill watching her soar all the way to the top (even if she got there before me). As I always say on our training calls, it doesn't matter how long it takes you, as long as you stay consistant and committed, you WILL make it. Thank you Brandy Gray for being the only person that wrote me back after that silly chain letter thing and introducing me to AmeriPlan® and thanks to Becky (my sister) for being my "worst and toughest prospect" who turned into my first NSD. AND thanks to Janie Jones and the whole Freedom at Home Team for ALL of your support and encouragement. I know I wouldn't be here if it weren't for you. I look forward to all of my team moving up the ladder with me. Come on up, there is plenty of room at the top. I will wait for you there.
Anita Houser, National Sales Director
I'm a Stay-at-Home Mom of two young, wonderful boys, and have a great husband. I'm also a singer/pianist in two musical groups, and study jazz piano privately each week. I've also dreamed of working from home and generating income to supplement our income and eventually make us set for life financially. I've done several work at home opportunities in the past. I got paid a little bit of money for a lot of my efforts, and many times spent money I never saw a return on.
When Janie Jones shared with me about AmeriPlan®, I knew this was very different. I had NEVER experienced Daily Pay before, and Residual Income seemed like a far off concept, very appealing, yet hard to attain with my past endeavors. While AmeriPlan® sounded great, I wondered if I could really make it work for me. Fortunately, I listened to that clear voice inside of me that said, "You can do it." I simply couldn't find a REAL reason to NOT get started. So, I signed up, and never looked back.
I've committed myself to consistently learning and working AmeriPlan® EVERY day. I have a sign on my desk that says: "Small actions done consistently can yield big results." I'm proud and grateful for every paycheck I receive in the mail. I marvel at how much fun I'm having and how well I'm getting paid to help others even on a part-time basis!
AmeriPlan® can help ANYONE who is willing to learn and work to achieve their dreams. We have a tremendous support team. Jump in...the water's great! This quote by Henry David Thoreau sums it up beautifully: "...if you advance confidently in the direction of your dreams, and endeavor to live the life which you have imagined, you will meet with a success unexpected in common hours."
Brandy Gray, National Sales Director
I found with Ameriplan® in July 2004 looking for some way to add an additional income. At that time I worked as an Administrative Assistant and part-time with Ameriplan®. When I started I knew I had found an awesome business that I could build on. I had prayed to God that he would bring me something that would change my life. This was something my family desperately needed. I had worked other opportunities that weren't legitimate and had been looking for something for about 5 yrs. I knew long before I had children that I wanted to be the parent who raised them not a daycare. I now have 3 children. A beautiful 1 yr. old little girl, a 4 yr. old little boy, and a 12 yr. old step-son. My dreams of financial freedom and being home with my family have all came true. This company is definitely given me the hope to pursue my family's dreams. I now have the freedom everyone is looking for in life. I will soon be financially free of debt and never have to worry about my children's future.
I also brought along my mother and sister in this wonderful journey with Ameriplan®. We all LOVE Ameriplan® and are excited for every new day ahead. AmeriPlan® also gives us an opportunity to help and meet terrific people who want to change their lives. Before I found this awesome company I worried about my future. It has definately changed my life. I know I have a great future ahead with Ameriplan®! Thank you so very much Dennis and Daniel Bloom for changing my life.
Some word of encouragement:
Set goals, stay positive and focused, work hard, never ever give up, & don't let anyone tell you it can't be done! Ameriplan® will change your life!
Tina Sarnicola, National Sales Director
I am a stay at home mom of 3 children under the age of 5. I go to school full time and do credit restoration part time, help my husband with his business and work AmeriPlan®. When I first spoke with Becky, I knew AmeriPlan® was for me. Having no dental or vision benefits for my family and I is what motivated me. If we don’t have it, you know how many other families don’t have it as well. I have been with AmeriPlan® since September 15th and unfortunately didn’t make my $500 bonus. However, that wasn’t going to stop me and you can be sure I will not miss any other bonuses. With the ongoing support and encouragement of Becky, I know I will follow in her foot steps and work my way to the top. I am extremely thankful I have this wonderful opportunity to work with Becky, as well as for AmeriPlan®. Make room, here I come! See you at the top!
Kathleen Strooband, National Sales Director
Wow! I can't believe that I finally made it to NSD. I started my business 2 years ago & boy the time has gone by very fast. I wanted to get to NSD before I had my 6th child(yes I now have 6 children-12,9,7,5,2, & 11 days old). She was born on 01/29/08. I made NSD on 01/26/08. I just made it in time. I asked God to help me please make it before I had my baby & he literally kept his promise. God is awesome! I would not have made it this far without the support from my husbamd & children, whom were cheering me on to make my goal. I also owe a great thank you to Kelly Fuller & Janie Jones & to the whole freedomathometeam, whom have been there every step of the way. Kelly you are awesome & listened to all of my ups & downs over the last 2 years & was there for me at every step. I would have quit if it wasn't for her saying one day-"maybe this business is not for you". That made me more on fire to prove that I could make my Ameriplan business work. She really motivated me, because whenever somebody says that I cannot do something & I know in my heart that I can-well you know-I gotta prove them wrong. I also do love every minute of working my Ameriplan business. I love helping people realize their dreams to want to stay home & helping people that have no medical coverage. I also want to give a big thank you to my team, because I would not have made it without the support of them-especially-Danielle Browning, Kate Mills, Derrica Wilson, Elisa Smith, Dawn Imus, Dawn Phillips, & Sandra Howard. I could not have made it this far without your help. I also wanted to thank Danielle Browning(SRSD) for taking charge of my weekly team meeting call, while I was out having my baby. You are doing a great job! I just can't believe I finally made it & just wanted to personally thank everybody for all of their support & efforts.
Susan Goodknight, National Sales Director
I a worked in pharmacy for nearly 15 years when we moved from California to Colorado in June 2004. Once we moved we found that we were expecting our 3rd child. We knew that with taking cuts in pay we would not be able to afford 3 kids in daycare so we decided that it would benefit our family if I stayed home.
I started looking into home-businesses around October 2004 and came across Pre-paid legal, Melaleauca, stuffing envelopes, paid to read emails. You name it and I read it. Nothing seemed like me though. I didn't want to have to sell anything to my friends or family.
I was called in early March by my signing up IBO Teresa Azzopardi. I am so thankful that she stood in there with me while I made my decision. It was hard for me to take that leap because my daughter was born February 28, 2005. It took me 2 days to think it over and then I called Teresa back and said lets go! I signed up when my oldest, Blake was almost 5, Hunter almost 3 and then Trinity 2 1/2 weeks old. I had my share of problems after I started my business on March 16th. I had a new baby and young boys hounding me for their attention and then to top it all off. My wonderful husband Justin, of 8 years almost cut 2 of his fingers off on April 1st! He left work on disability and couldn't move his right hand and was in a brace for 8 weeks. The baby wouldn't let him hold her (I think she was scared of the brace) and she would only have me. I wasn't able to really start my business until mid April. When I did get it started it was kind of a slow start but started getting better as each week went by.
I reached Regional Sales Director in late June and am working my way to National Sales Director. I know with hard work and consistency I WILL make it. We have such a wonderful team of helpful IBOs that are here for us each and every day. This is not a business that we work alone. There is always someone here to help us and teach us how to be successful. Thank you so much to this TEAM!
Rebecca Lomis-Stephan, National Sales Director
I started AmeriPlan® to contribute something to my family of five. I also wanted to be able to be successful with working from home.
The last 3 years have been hard on our family with the loss of our twin daughters, the loss of our home, a hysterectomy, and being diagnosed with Osteoporosis and losing almost all of my teeth. I turned to God and prayed that He would bring some sunshine into our lives. I am only 35 years old and had already experienced a life of sadness and debt. It was time for something good to happen to us.
This is where AmeriPlan® came in. I wanted something simple but effective to do from home so that I could enjoy the children that I have at home and my husband. I found AmeriPlan® in our local online newspaper. I took about three days trying to find something wrong with the company but failed. I knew that God had brought this to me. Anita Houser called me up for an interview and I was probably the easiest prospect she had and I signed up! Thank you Anita for being there and believing in me.
My goals are probably a month and a half behind but I work hard each day and I know where I am going, to the top. There was a statement said, The Business Works, YOU just need to Work the Business. Also, GOD IS MY BOSS! Let God reward you for being obedient and hard working, this is the answer to your life and business, at least this is what I found to be true.
May God bring fruit to each of your trees as you work towards your goals.
Michael Dennehy, Senior Executive Sales Director
This was an awesome opportunity that I could not pass up. I started part time, while maintaining a job in the work force and within 2 months I quit my job and went with AmeriPlan USA® full time. Now I am a stay at home dad and loving it! AmeriPlan® will fulfill your dreams if you are willing to help people and educate them from your heart. With 2 to 4 years of consistent work, you can build a part time career with a full time income.
I would like to add, our Freedom at Home Team leaders have made a great impact on my becoming successful with AmeriPlan®. Their support system is unsurpassed. Personally, I decided that I would never give up no matter what it takes or what walls I hit. I will overcome the obstacles and help others achieve great success with this amazing opportunity.
Anita Knaack, Senior Executive Sales Director
I had just become a mom for the first time, my maternity leave was over and I needed to find a way to stay at home with my son and make money. After interviewing for jobs that I really didn't want I was talking to my yoga buddy Kelly Fuller about my situation. Kelly shared with me how she was able to stay at home with her children and make money. A few days later Kelly introduced me to AmeriPlan®'s® business model and I immediately became a IBO. Many years ago I was a representative for a high pressure, product driven "mlm company which ended in class action suites against that company, a basement full of products and credit card debt. So I was thrilled to find a company with integrity, no product and a service that friends and family can honestly benefit from.
I have learned to keep my eye on the prize and stay focused on the reasons why I am working from home and that is my family. Instead of being a job I work part time from home, AmeriPlan® has become a career choice that I am proud of and am excited to work. The opportunity here is tremendous for those willing to work for it. There are going to ups and downs but the key is not to quit and staying plugged into the training. You will realize how great the rewards are both inside and out!
Jennifer Elie, Executive Sales Director
I am a stay at home mom of three children, three and under. I tried home parties, paid to read emails and even mystery shopping. These were not very lucrative, and ended up costing me more than what I was paid. After doing many other businesses, I finally found home with AmeriPlan®. I started my AmeriPlan® business on July 19th of last year. Janie Jones, our NSD has been awesome to work with. We have a great team with lots of training and unlimited support. The sky is the limit with our company.
The decisions you make today are going to affect the rest of your life. If you are reading this bio, then I am assuming you are making a decision about whether you want to sign us up or not. Look at it this way, you have nothing to lose, but everything to gain. The small investment you make today is going to change your life, and your family's life. Remember, what you put into something, is what you get out. If you put nothing in, you get nothing in return. If you put 110% of your time into this on a part time basis, your journey is going to take you far. 2-4 years is not a lot to ask for, especially if you can do what you want for the rest of your life. May God bless you and your family as well as your business.
Tara Donichy, Executive Sales Director
I am a mother of two, have a full time job and have a significant other! I have been an independent business owner with AmeriPlan® since September 2005. And I honestly have to say this has been the most life changing experience since becoming a mother! My business has given me so many rewards from having the potential to make the income I desire to allowing me to find a passion that I have probably always had and just never knew exactly how to use it! That is helping people change their lives in such a huge way! My mom used to tell me "that I worried too much about everyone else and I would help the world if I could." So, I think as a young girl, my passion was there. We all know we can't change world. But with AmeriPlan®, I have an opportunity to change the world in a some way. Whether it is helping a stay at home mom supplement a family income to someone who isn't happy with their job or career. Or maybe, helping someone, who, otherwise, could never afford to start a business and be their own boss! And I can help people who otherwise could not afford to go to the dentist, get glasses, or pay for their prescriptions! AmeriPlan® has allowed me to do all of these things! If I could touch everyone with AmeriPlan® I would because I am proud of the company and what it stands for! AmeriPlan® allows people to save money on their benefits and gain financial freedom most people only dream of!
I was one of those people! When I started with AmeriPlan®, I couldn't afford the $95.00 sign up! Like many other Americans I just made enough to live on, No extras, but the excitement that my recruiter shared with me, left a burning in me and I had to do it! And I am so glad I did! I made it to RSD in less than 30 days, and earned a $500.00 bonus! I just hit a $1000 bonus, am a Senior Regional Sales Director, and wear the title proudly! I want to thank first of all my team, you guys are awesome! My mentor and coach, Katherine! Dulsa, Pennie, and Janie! Advice to anyone starting or thinking about it, get in on a good team, duplicate successful people, and JUST DO IT!
Robin Slagle, Executive Sales Director
I have been married to my husband, Jason, for almost 13 years. We have two sons, Dakotah 12 and Tristan 6, and a little girl, Teghan 3. I have stayed at home with my children since the day my first son was born. Working outside of my home was something I never wanted to have to do. Fortunately, I was able to be a stay at home mom, but because of that we have always had to struggle to make ends meet! I so desperately wanted to find a way to make money from home!
A few years ago I started my journey, searching over the internet for a way to make money from home. Wow, what an experience! I have tried opportunity after opportunity, losing money on so many "fake promises", nothing ever seemed to work out for me. In June of 2005 I signed a company that I thought was going to be the answer to my prayers, unfortunately 2? months later I had yet to make a single DIME! While working that business I came across another opportunity that I decided to give a shot; it wasn't the one for me either, but it was because of this that I found Becky's website. I had heard of AmeriPlan® before and even looked into it in the past. I just needed to find the right person, with the right team, at the right time. I discovered that when I found Becky. Had I not given the other opportunities a try, I would not know as much as I do today about working from home and having a successful home business!
I found Becky and AmeriPlan® on Sept. 9, 2005. I picked up the phone and gave her a call. I knew immediately that I had finally found the opportunity that I had been searching years for. I signed up that night and I have never looked back! I became Regional Sales Director on day 25. I am growing a successful team myself with the help of my great upline! I am no longer just a homemaker, I am a successful business owner AND a stay at home mom:)
I believe, everything happens for a reason. God doesn't just give us success, we have to earn it and work for it. Struggling and heartache make you a stronger person. If you have faith in yourself and faith in God, anything is possible! Thanks Becky and thank you AmeriPlan® for helping make my dreams come true! I will see you all at the top!
George Mueller, Executive Sales Director
I was retired and found out that the old saying is true "retirement is not all it's cracked up to be". I thought with this extra time I now had, I would have time with my family and children now. Guess I forgot to tell myself that to go on those family vacations together requires money, which tends to get in short supply upon retirement. So with plenty of time on my hands I went in search of a way of supplementing my retirement income and in the course of a couple years had found out the hard way that working from home and creating a home based business that fit my needs was hard to find. There were/are so many fly-by night companies out there finding one seemed impossible to do. They either offered no training or worse no pay and support to those that were interested. It was by sheer luck that I came across AmeriPlan®, and I am now working full time by my choice, and making the income that I desired. It's kind of nice to get paid everyday.
Winnie Woody, Executive Sales Director
I am so fortunate to be part of this outstanding company. All of the IBO's with AmeriPlan® are truly chosen for greatness and that's what we strive for each day.
Many thanks to my family, my husband Stuart and my son Stuart Jr. who'd ask, "Did you get any people today Mommy?" each day after pre-school as he jumped into his car seat. Without them there'd be no WHY.
Repeated thanks to Susan Goodknight, my IBO, an elegant, kind, and excellent businesswoman who epitomizes the word LEADER in every single way. She didn't even laugh when I called her three months into the business and asked her, "What's an OPT-IN?" She just answered, "Don't worry, that's a good thing," as she patiently explained that I had signed my first member. Here's to a long, fulfilling, and profitable business pairing and an even better friendship.
Thanks to my boot camp leaders Kelly Fuller and Tina Sarnicola, sources of inspiration, motivation, and more. I appreciate your help, advice, and encouragement.
Thanks to Janie for creating magic for all of us each day.
And to my friend Jennifer, also an IBO on Susan's team, who is a sounding board, a confident, a source of inspiration, and a leader. We will grow this business together for many years to come "Lady."
It seems that one of the seven Core Commitments, personal development and training, are the keys to this business at every stage in order to produce the changes necessary for success. In the words of the great Jim Rohn "If you don't like where you are, change it. You're not a tree!"
"Game on" for the Freedom at Home team as we change peoples' lives one person and one day at a time.
Elizabeth Carter, Senior Executive Sales Director
I am so EXCITED and PROUD to say I have been promoted to SRSD. I would like to take a moment and give a huge thank you to my wonderful husband of 19 years. Lance has been my biggest supporter. He is always there for me whether it is taking care of dinner or tending to the kids while I do my calls. Even though I have been spending a lot of time building my business he has shown so much patience and understanding. I could not have asked for a better husband and best friend and thank God every day for giving him to me.
Almost a year ago today I had to honor to talk with Anita Houser. Anita was not the first person to offer me the AmeriPlan® opportunity but, she was the first one who took the time to make sure I got all my questions answered. After signing up I made RSD in 30 days. This was a huge deal for me I had tried other so called IBO's. One I worked for over 3 years, I was never able to make a profit much less move up in the company.
I know that AmeriPlan® is the Real Deal.
I would like to express a very big thank you to:
Anita Houser, First let me say thank you for answering my Instant Message a year ago, and thank you for all the support and help you have given me over the last year. Tiffany Ivy, RSD; Misty Schion, RSD; Rudy Sooknanan, RSD; all three of you are so wonderful. I am proud and honored to have each one of you on my team. This business is a team business and with out each one of you I would not be were I am. So I say thank you!
Also I would like to thank Janie Jones and Eva Waring for your help!
My favorite saying is "We can either work to make our own dreams come true or someone will hire us to make their dreams come true."
Shona Hill, Executive Sales Director
Hi my name is Shona Hill. I'm a Regional Sales Director with AmeriPlan USA®.
I've actually searched for an legitimate work from home opportunity for some time. I had actually given up. I felt like nothing legitimate was out there. One day while at my computer, I received a pop-up screen advertising. It was advertising "work-at-home with a Health Benefits Company." I was skeptical but still filled out the form. It wasn't going to hurt to hear what the opportunity was all about.
About a day or two later I received a call from Kelly. She proceeded to tell me about the business. It sounded legitimate. It sounded like it was something I could possibly do from home and earn a good income. One side of me was excited and the other side was screaming "SCAM." I told Kelly that I would do some research and get back to her. Really excited about the opportunity, I arrived home to tell my husband about it. Well, that high didn't last long because he just shot me down. Asking questions that I had no clue as to what the answer's were. So I quickly jumped on my computer to start my research. After researching the company I couldn't find one negative thing about them. I thought to myself "hmmm, this is the one." So I approached my husband again to give him the status of my findings. He was still a bit skeptic, but after a few days of talking and convincing I signed up for the Company.
I SEE the BIG PICTURE and what AmeriPlan® will do for my family in 2 to 4 years. Yes, this Company is REAL and they are making REAL PEOPLE'S DREAMS COME TRUE EVERYDAY! I am well on my way to FINANCIAL FREEDOM with Ameriplan.
We have an AWESOME Team and SUPPORT System.
What's holding you back? Aren't you tired of living paycheck to paycheck?
Why not take that first step of creating Financial Freedom for your family. I'm here to support and cheer you on, all the way to the TOP!
Michelle Dawodi, Executive Sales Director
Wow! I finally made it to RSD! I feel like this has taken FOREVER, but actually has only been about 2 months. I was making slow progress for the first 1 months and then 2 weeks ago I went to my local AmeriPlan® training on Saturday morning.
I'm not sure exactly why this simple meeting changed my business, but it really did! It really solidified my faith in this amazing company and brought my future with AmeriPlan® into sharp focus all at once. It was so awesome to see the people in real life that I had heard so much about. So here I am 2 weeks after attending this meeting and now I'm at RSD!
My advice to everyone working towards RSD is to never give up and to GET ORGANIZED! For the past 2 weeks I have been very faithful to my planner. I scheduled all my calls and stuck to my schedule. Every call I planned to make got made! What an amazing difference this much organization has made in my business.
Yesterday my husband told me "You got another check in the mail. I'm so proud of you!" Just one month ago he told me "Quit wasting your time with this AmeriPlan® stuff, it's not working!" That's a complete turn around. I've made a believer out of the biggest skeptic I know!
I would not have made it to RSD without the help and support Rebecca Lomis-Stephan and Anita Houser. We are so blessed to be on this team of caring and supportive people! Quitting has never been an option for me, partially because I knew Rebecca would kill me! Thank you both so much!
Colleen Gatto, Senior Regional Sales Director
I cannot begin to express how excited I am to have hit ESD. When you start with AmeriPlan you think "oh the concept is easy I can do this", but WOW is it a lot of work. This experience has been so rewarding for me. Not only do I get to stay home with my 2 year old twins Dominick and Delaney but I get to earn an income too. I am honored to have the team that I do. They are all just amazing. I want to thank each and every one of you for supporting me in one way or another this past year. You all wanting to work only makes me work even harder. Thank you for that. My SRSD Jennifer Roth you're a born leader. My rising stars Debra Akers and Brenda Griffith SRSD is just around the corner for you both. You both are wonderful IBO's and friends. Keep SMILING, you're doing great.
When I first started I had the typical skeptic for a husband so I did not acknowledge him in my previous bio for he believed in ME but not AmeriPlan. The air has shifted and it's time to thank him. Bobby, thank you for helping me reach this goal. Thank you for listening to me talk "AmeriPlan" to you. Thank you for your feedback and thank you for your love and support I am so proud of us and the future of our family is secure now.
Regina, thank you for encouraging me to reach this goal and for the stars. I knew I could do it, I could see the stars, I could graze them but I just couldn't GRAB them. Thank you for telling me YES, Colleen, you can do it. You've been great thank you.
To everyone who just started or have been with the company for months. Keep plugging in, keep reaching for those stars and Keep SMILING!!!!! Your dreams can become reality here. You all are an amazing team and I am blessed to have found the Freedom At Home Team Family. Look out SESD here I come!
Paige Lombardi, Executive Sales Director
I made it to RSD! I knew I would be here, just as I know I will make it to NSD! It does take work and you do have great days and tough days, but like anything worth working for, it will pay off in the end. The pay off will be that I can stay home with my wonderful boys and also help our family, financially! So, I stick to my motto of being "Consistent and Persistent" and know my time with AmeriPlan® will be worth every minute!
I need to thank my Sponsor, Becky Blacka, for ALL her support, help and encouragement! I look forward to the months and years ahead of working with you as a colleague and a friend! I hope I can be the mentor and Team Leader to my team as you are to me and your team! I am so blessed to have clicked on your ad.
Thank you also to the Boot Camp team for the awesome tips and teachings to help boost our business and strengthen our skills! Thank you also to all the Trainers who give of themselves weekly so that we may build the businesses we are all striving to create. And to Janie who is always an inspiration to us!
Last, but certainly not least, I want to thank my family for their support! While the jury is still out with some members, I wouldn't be here without your belief in my vision and your support in all that I choose to pursue. I thank my boys for their patience and smiles and the "Good job on your calls, today Mommy!" And thanks to my husband who is my personal cheerleader even when he's had a tough day! I will retire YOU someday, soon!
Kelly Pira, Executive Sales Director
Wow, what an exciting few months it has been! When I first found Regina and AmeriPlan® in November 2005, I had no idea how much it would change our family's lives. I was pregnant with our 2nd child and due any day. I knew I didn't want to put the baby and our son in daycare but was beginning to think there were no other options. Then I found Regina and the Freedom at Home Team! I had tried other home
businesses before but had never found the training and support offered by the FAH team. It has been so exciting to see how quickly you can build your income. By December of 2006 I will have completely replaced my income of my previous (yes, I quit my job!) career in the publishing industry. I LOVE this business! My goals: NSD by September 2006, replace income by December 2006.
Thank you Regina, Thank you Ameriplan, and Thank you Freedom At Home Team!
Beth Cessna, Senior Regional Sales Director
I looked at the AmeriPlan® business as something I could work part-time in addition to running a full-time career coaching and resume writing business. I was excited to get involved with AmeriPlan® because I saw it as a great way to make a secondary income to help support our household. After a couple of months in the business I saw that there is much more to the AmeriPlan® business than just short-term cash (although the fast income was very helpful). I've found that there is a fabulous opportunity for long term residual income and huge tax savings forrunning a home based business. I love the coaching and mentoring that I participate in as an AmeriPlan® sponsor. Working with new and existing IBOs to help them be all they can be, is my greatest joy in this business. I hope you enjoy your initial training on this site. We are going to have a great time working together building your successful AmeriPlan® business!
Karen Vale, Senior Regional Sales Director
At 45 yrs old, I am a mom of 4 children, 2 dogs, 2 cats, 4 birds and lots of fish, as well as holding down a FT job outside the home. I did not want to work for someone else for the next 25-30 yrs and, at that point, still not know whether or not I would ever be able to afford to retire.
I found AmeriPlan®. in March of 2004 after looking for several months - I immediately knew this business was one of great potential! I was determined to make this a successful venture which will benefit our entire family for years to come. My wonderful husband, Tom and my children, Jason, ToniDawn, Chani and Rebekah are all very supportive and have become involved in my everyday AmeriPlan®. business, my own accomplishments, as well as those of my team!
I am certainly looking forward to the future, for it is bright and I plan at this point to be able to walk away from my FT job in a year's time! I am so grateful to be a part of this team, the support has been wonderful from my upline, Elaine Almonte, who had faith in me from the start, to Janie who has supported me each and every day! My team is exceptional, they are the greatest and I have so much faith in them! My goal aside from my own success, is building a strong team that will realize their personal capabilities and for them to experience their own success for years to come! Thanks for everything AmeriPlan®!
Jennifer Robinson, Senior Regional Sales Director
I am a single mom of two, my son is 12 and daughter is 8. I work a full time job plus AmeriPlan® part time. I was tired of struggling and not having any type of security for myself and most of all my kids. It's so encouraging to know that my kids are going to have a secure future. I've tried a few other companies before and just didn't make any money. I wasn't much for selling products either and that was a big draw with the AmeriPlan®, knowing that I was advertising a service and helping people change their lives either thru saving or making money. I have met and work with wonderful people especially my sponsor Janie Gutierrez and have had more support than I've ever had with any J.O.B. I have to give all the credit to my Heavenly Father who placed AmeriPlan® in my lap and has blessed my business. Some days are tough but so is any J.O.B. the key is prayer and hard work. Quitting is never an option and I signed up with that attitude. Failing was never in my vocabulary only success and it's worth every minute of it knowing that I'm on my way to financial freedom! Another thing so rewarding is that I'm home with my kids, laughing and spending time with them. When I promote they hug me, they encourage me and believe in what I do. I'm able to have fun with them and help with their homework and watch movies, have quality time with them. I love talking to people and making them laugh, "Entertaining While Training I call it. It's a fun job!
Leisa Schuzer, Senior Regional Sales Director
For 3.5 years, I was looking for a good work from job or business. My husband and I were both in manufacturing and had management positions. We both made good salaries, but the paychecks we brought home were never enough, therefore I hated to go to the mailbox everyday. Financially, We were just keeping our heads above water. My husband had fairly good hours, but I was working 80+ hours per week, and on call 24/7. With 2 young kids at home, I was missing out on my children's lives, and driving myself into the ground. I was falling short on all of my expectations of being a wife, mother and employee.
During all this time, I continued looking for a legitimate work from home opportunity so I could be home with our kids. I lost a lot of money signing up with companies, which turned out to be scams and half-truths. My husband will not even discuss some of the so-called opportunities which lost us money. Eventually, I did leave my management position. I was determined to be home with our kids so I continued to look for the work from home opportunity.
When Cindy Harms contacted me about AmeriPlan®, I knew this would be a good for me because I did not want to deal with any inventory, party plans, or selling "stuff". The service we provide is fantastic, but I had been burned so many times before I was hesitant. It just sounded too good to be true. Kind of like several of the other opportunities I lost money on. I decided "what the heck, at least they are a member of the BBB." So I had a garage sale, cleared some clutter and signed-up. Once I did sign up, I started working on it, but was not putting my all into it. I finally put AmeriPlan® on the back burner, but I continued to call into the weekly calls. The calls were so inspiring! There were so many people that were pulling themselves out of their own personal doldrums and making AmeriPlan® work for them. So what was my problem? I finally figured out that I was afraid of being successful, and I was holding myself back. Mid-March of 2004, I started to pull my act together and take advantage of the opportunity that had been given to me. 10 weeks later, I made it to RSD. Now, I am kicking myself over and over for not getting busy with AmeriPlan® when I first signed up.
As long as you have a dream and make steps everyday toward that dream you will achieve it. Some days those steps are tiny little baby steps. Some days you take a step backwards, but you learn something new to apply for future situations. Other days 1 step will take you miles closer toward your goal. The important thing is to be consistent and work it everyday. You have to plant a lot of seeds, because not all seeds will grow. Some seeds will spring out of the ground without any help, and other seeds will need to be fertilized and coaxed. If you plant a lot of seeds and tend to your garden you will have a bountiful harvest. I can't believe how my life is changing. I am growing personally and financially. When I go to the mailbox, there are still bills in there, (dang it all!) but there are paychecks in there to. I can now truly see the day when my family will be financially sound. When I go to bed at night, I sleep with a clear conscious knowing I have the unique opportunity to help Members get the benefits they need, and help IBOs to move towards their own goals and dreams. AmeriPlan® is truly changing my life.
Matt & Stacy English, Senior Regional Sales Directors
In January 2004 we became the proud parents of identical twin girls! While on maternity leave, it hit me like a ton of bricks. I couldn't go back to work and put these babies in a daycare! I did not want someone else raising our children!
So, there my journey began. I searched day and night for something to do from home. I found all the typical things – typing for pay, doing surveys, medical transcription, stuffing envelopes – none of which appealed to me!
Luckily, Cindy Harms got a hold of me! After several phone calls and inquires about AmeriPlan®, not to mention my husband, Matt, firing question after question at her (poor Cindy!), we decided we were going to go for it! What appealed to me most was: I did not have to buy any products that were going to sit in a back room or the garage and have a lot of overhead. We offer a SERVICE!
I was primarily working our business in the beginning, and then once Matt saw the potential, he jumped in with me. Matt works 60-70 hours a week for a logistics company in Dallas and still tries to find a little time each week to keep the ball rolling. Our goal is by summer 2005 he will be able to fire his boss and come home to do AmeriPlan® with me full time!
I started in May 2004, but really did not get going until June (the girls keep me quite busy!). We made Regional Sales Director the beginning of August 2004.
We are so fortunate to have such an incredible support system through our team.
If you are willing to dedicate yourself, be persistent, be trainable AND be patient – you will reap the rewards! Just wait and see what happens with your business in a few short years!
I love how AmeriPlan® is dedicated to helping people! Not just helping people save incredible amounts of money on health care, but to help people build their own business, and in my case, make it possible for me to stay at home with our babies where I feel I need to be - AND make money at the same time!
As my husband always says, “Those who come to get, leave unhappy, dissatisfied and bitter. But those who come to give, leave receiving abundantly.”
We're here to give you all the guidance and support you need! Hope you join us!
Mia Florides, Senior Regional Sales Director
AmeriPlan® has really won me over!!
I have been working from home for 5 years now and making that decision was a very hard one. As a college graduate with a BA in Marketing and Management I worked very hard for years and working with some high profile companies. But we all know with high positions and high pay comes long days and long nights, office politics, a lot of stress and worse of all your home becomes just a sleeping place. But that regular paycheck week after week was very very hard to let go. Well it took one really bad day for me to walk into my office and here it is I am typing my resignation and I handed it in. Wow it was a such world of relief. The stress was lifted instantly even heard angels sing :).
So my plan was to relax for 6 months and figure out a better plan for me and my life.
Guess what never went back! I was really taking a risk now because now no money is coming in.
Well during that time I started searching the internet and found many home businesses and tried to figure out what would work. Then I met this great woman Janie Jones and we started talking online and we exchanged ideas and she had the same goal as myself. Work and make money from home and we did. We joined many businesses together and yes they did work but we were still not happy. Now here comes AmeriPlan® on July 2003 it was presented to me and Janie and many other online die hards who are looking for that financial freedom from home. Janie signed up first, I was too burnd out to start a new home business since we were just getting out from another one. So I let Janie do her thing and boy did she. So I jumped on board Feb 1, 2004. So here it is 6 months later very happy and what I can say already SRSD and working very hard. I know AmeriPlan® will bring me and many others what we want. A thing like this happens and you jump on board and enjoy it, I sure am. Always keeping My Eye On The Victory.
Captain Norm Perkins, Senior Regional Sales Director
I am a father to 4 children as well as being a tug boat captain. When I am not away, I work my AmeriPlan® business. It has been one year since I started in the business. Jennifer Elie recruited me last July. I was not looking for another business opportunity but I received an email that sparked my interest.
AmeriPlan® is giving me the opportunity to build a residual income for my family. Sea-life is great, but you have to work long hard hours and spend weeks away from your family. The way I see it, in the next 2-3 years I will be off the boat and home for good with my family giving them everything they need and want. If there were any advice I can offer you, since you are reading my bio, I would have to say patience, perseverance and wisdom equals prosperity. Believe in yourself, be patient with yourself, and be consistent. Go to conventions, go to conference calls, they can really motivate you, but the biggest motivator will be your WHY and your HOW? Set your goals and reach for them. We welcome you aboard on this great journey. Follow us and we will see you at the TOP!
Shonda Kennedy Ward, Senior Regional Sales Director
I signed-up with AmeriPlan® in December 2004 after a friend of mine told me how much potential there was with this company. I was very excited about how well I could do in AmeriPlan® and how much AmeriPlan® could change my life! I have always wanted to have my own business so that when I have kids I wouldn't have to put them in daycare. I read the testimonies about what a difference this company was making in the lives of their IBOs and members. So, I jumped in and started working diligently! My next goal, ESD! WOO HOO!
I would like to give honor and praise to GOD for which all things are possible! Thanks to my wonderful husband, Rodney who has listened to me talk non-stop about AmeriPlan® and for his patience and support! Last but not least, Thank you Janie for answering my many questions and for your continued support.
Julie Rogers, Senior Regional Sales Directors
I so excited to be part of a team that is a team. I have been looking for something I could do from home that would help me and my family and AmeriPlan® has end my search. Through AmeriPlan® I have and still learning what it takes to make a business work. I am excited and glad that I am part of incredible team. The Freedom at Home Team!
Theresa Dosch, National Sales Director
My name is Theresa, and I "retired" from a counseling career to be a full time home mom to my wonderful boys, Connor, 5 and Kieran, 19 months old! They keep me very busy, but in the few spare moments I had, I missed helping others and wanted to try to work from home because we really needed the extra income! Plus, my priority "is" my family, so I did not want to take time away from my kids by going back to a traditional career.
I had tried many things in the past, including Amway, Cutco knives, medical transcription, typing and taking surveys! Most of these ventures ended up costing me money, instead of making money!
AmeriPlan® was the first at home work opportunity that I found where I am actually making money, helping others and doing something I LOVE! I cannot tell you how many wonderful people I have met, and they are all committed to helping each and every one of us succeed! This company pays well, they pay often, and provide every tool and training outlet to ensure that we do well!
AmeriPlan® cares about it's IBOs, treats them well and they care about their members... they are committed to providing quality health care to every person in America at an affordable rate! Now, that is something that I can be proud of!
Join us, and you can too! You will NOT look back! See ya at the top!
I signed up for AmeriPlan® at the end April, when I had a lot going on, so I wasn't able to "jump in" and get started until the end of May! My goal was to make RSD by July 4th weekend, and I reached that goal by July 1st! I am very fortunate to have a loving and supportive husband, who believes in AmeriPlan® as much as I do, so I will really like to retire him someday!
Kelly Roberts, National Sales Director
WOW! I am just so excited about the opportunity that AmeriPlan® has brought to me and my family. I didn't get involved with this business for the reason most people do. I didn't need money like so many of us do or need to be able to stay home with my kids. I started because of personal achievements. 5 years ago when my husband came to me and said that he was offered a job in Europe and I would have to quit nursing school and my job with a 911 center I had mixed emotions, I had always worked. Well at the end of the 4th year I was really longing to have my own purpose in life and I new when we got back to the States I would want to go back to work and didn't know what I was going to do. When I saw Stephanie's ad on the internet I did my research and then gave her a call. It really didn't matter what she said I already new that I wanted to give this a go. I did tell her that I was very skeptical but I would try it. I didn't fast track to RSD and that was OK with me but I did see a growth in me and the way I was doing my business. For those of you who are struggling to make that first level just keep going and train, train and keep training. See, I had all day, because I couldn't make any phone calls until after 4:00pm my time so I spent all day reading and listening to all recorded calls trying to figure out a way I was going to work my business all the way from Europe. I think I finally have a handle on it now after 2 months of trial and error.
I would just like to say Thank you to the Lord above, Stephanie and Alan Turner for being there when I needed them both personally and in business. If you need to talk or you are hitting a wall I encourage you before giving up call your upline and just say hey I need a pillow and I am sure that they will listen to you just as Stephanie did for me. Thanks to the Turners and this team I have been able to overcome a lot of walls.
Breauna Story, Senior Executive Sales Director
I am a 23 year old mother of 3 very young children, ages 2 and a half, 16 months, and 3 weeks. I consider myself very lucky to have found Regina and AmeriPlan® when I did. I was laid off from my full time job 3 weeks before giving birth. This made it impossible to find another job as noone would hire me being 9 months pregnant. Luckily I had been working with AmeriPlan® for 4 weeks before I got laid off. I made RSD right at 30 days and received my $500 bonus so I did not feel so nervous about not having my full time job anymore. I am so happy to have found AmeriPlan®. I love being home with my children and being able to do all my work from my living room. Regina has been more help than I could have ever asked for and she is what got me where I am today, a Senior Regional Sales Director.
Tammy Bartlett, Senior Regional Sales Director
I have been married to my husband, Richard, for 23 years. I have 2 beautiful daughters. Ashley is 20 years old and a junior in college. She is majoring in Criminal Justice and Psycology and doing very well in the grade department. Courtney is 15 years old and a Sophmore in High School she enjoys sports and is a Honor Roll Student. We also have a great-niece we are raising, her name is Allie and she is 3-years old. She has brought alot of joy into our family. We plan on adopting her as soon as possible.
For many years I have looked online and off for a business that would allow me to stay at home with my family and supplement my income that I made as an Insurance Agent. I have been in the Insurance Industry for over 10 years and in the past few years I have not been satisfied with how the Industry was doing business. I am a person who will only sell what I believe in and I no longer believed in the Insurance Industry due to so many people could not afford Insurance due to high premiums and underwriting guidelines. Insurance companies only want to insure people who do not need insured. I want to help ALL people not only a few chosen ones who can afford Insurance or the people who do not need insurance. I had been taught over the years to become very skeptical and not very trusting of people or businesses. I love meeting people and making new friends and that is hard to do when you must be skeptical about everyone you meet. Finally in August 2003 I gave my resignation to the Insurance industry and began to sit back and look over where I was and where I wanted to be in life. I have always had a dream of owning and operating a successful at home business that would secure myself and my families financial freedom.
Until I met Richelle Honeycutt with AmeriPlan®, I had began to feel I was never going to find a company to work with whom I trusted and really believed in. Richelle is a super person to know she has taught me so much in just a short period of time. She goes out of her way to help leader, guide and direct people to the road to success with AmeriPlan®v. This company has so many successful people in the business all you have to do is watch them and do what they do. I prayed that God would show me a way to make money from home with a company like AmeriPlan®. I feel totally blessed by the opportunity that God has given me with AmeriPlan®. I make my own hours I work with great people and I am making money while having a good time with AmeriPlan®. I believe God has placed AmeriPlan® in my life to help others and myself to get out of debt, have a savings and retirement fund and show others how to do the same. Ask and you shall receive, knock and the door will be answered. Pray and trust and God delievers more than we can ever imange. What a AWESOME GOD we have!
I signed up for AmeriPlan® in October 2004. I had several personal matters that was coming to a close and I needed to take care of undone matters before I could give my all to AmeriPlan®. I finally got closure on the matters at hand and called Richelle Honeycutt and said I am ready to go now and I really need you guidance to get me started. Well that is all Richelle needed to hear because she started leading and I started following what she said to do. I have only been working the business since January and I just recently made Regional Sales Director! I knew this was a company that I wanted to give my all to and start getting myself and family out of debt. (we had incurred thousands of dollars of debt on attorney's to keep a baby safe and secure)
Dr. Clydene Casebolt, Executive Sales Director
I signed up for AmeriPlan® in November 2004. I had retired from the health field, having worked as a physician for 28 years. I have one son , a Physician, and 3 stepchildren, one RN, one PHD and one Physician, as well as 4 grandchildren and one great grandson. Just goes to show you one never gets to old to enjoy the benefits provided by AmeriPlan®. We are deeply involved in the health field.
AmeriPlan® has afforded me the opportunity to remain involved in the health field and to continue receiving the rewards of helping others as well as the monitary rewards, which have been very gratifying. I thank Anita Knaack, Kelly Fuller and Janie Jones for helping me to re-direct my energies into this very satisfying field.
Kelly Sutton, Senior Regional Sales Director
This is so exciting! From the minute I learned about AmeriPlan® I have been excited. Some days are more productive than others, however, there isn't a day that goes by that I don't thank God for his hand in this. I enjoy being productive and achieving success in all areas of my life, especially my family and my career.
I have worked from home as a mortgage banker for 8 years. Even though this has been tons of money at times – it was always extremely stressful and not to mention that each month you start over @ $0.00. I was so tired of not enjoying my days and I was determined to find something better. You can believe that I have found the company that I love, providing a service that helps people save money and get the proper health care they need and make money all at the same time. This is great! If you are a part of my downline, watch out! We are going to enjoy this ride.
Michelle Stefferson, Senior Regional Sales Director
Hello, I am Michelle Stefferson from Port Jefferson Station, NY and I am a single mom of a 6 year old named Adam. Because of Adam and the dreams I have I had been searching for something forever. I tried all thoughs homebased businesses and after getting disgusted with those results, I stumpled along AmeriPlan®. I am so thankful that Jennifer Horton contacted me about the opportunity. I knew in my heart that this was FINALLY it! I can finally help people and put my heart and soul into something and get a real result. I have a dream for me and my son and that is to be financially free by the time I am 45. I am 38 now and with this business I know that it is going to happen. My son needs me to be home with him and this will allow me to do that. There is a light at the end of the tunnel. I am seeing the bright future that me and my son have. Keep dreaming and believeing!
I had been praying for something and the Lord answered my prayers!
I keep a sign above my computer that says: The jump is so frightening between where I am and where I want to be, because of all I may become I will close my eyes and leap!
And a quote from a poem that says: Rest if you must but you must never quit! If anyone needs some words of advice, read those quotes daily.
Thank you Jennifer and AmeriPlan® for putting the smile back on my face and keeping my dream alive! God Bless!
Chrissy Anderson, Senior Regional Sales Director
I am married and a mother of 2 little boys. I looked for work from home opportunities for about a year and gave up because all I found were scams. I then started looking into owning my own franchise and realized I was not willing to take such a risk with the amount of money I would have needed for start-up. I had pretty much given up and decided that I was destined to work 9 ½ - 10 hours a day while putting our children in daycare which costs about $10,000.00 per child a year. Until one day I stumbled across AmeriPlan® while giving the work from home thing one more shot. I can know say that I am working towards quitting my full-time job to spend more time with my family and working on my own home business.
Julie Rogers, Senior Regional Sales Director
I am married to a wonderful, supporting husband. We have an awesome 13-month old, Caleb. In a word, Caleb is my "why." I want to be home with him to watch him grow. Unfortunately, I am responsible for bringing home two thirds of our family income while Steven is in school full time. So, the chances of me quitting my JOB were slim to none. Then Stephanie Turner called me with AmeriPlan®! What a difference a phone call makes! I haven't turned in my notice yet, but am working toward that goal.
I am so excited to make RSD. I couldn't have done it without the support of Stephanie and our team. She is a shining example of teamwork and motivation. If I ever have a moment of doubt, Stephanie is there to remind me to keep my eyes on the prize. Thank you for everything. We're on our way to the top!
Michelle Moraga, Senior Regional Sales Director
I've been with AmeriPlan® since April 25,05. I was introduced to this awesome business opportunity from my best childhood friend (Susan Goodknight in CO.). I never thought of a home-based business before April 24th. Susan had called to tell me she had a baby girl, after an hour of catching up, she said she had to go and do some work on her computer. We had just gone thru a whole conversation on how she was not working in the Pharmacy anymore so I had to ask, what she was talking about. So we were on the phone for probably another 45 min. I had her tell me all about AmeriPlan®.
I had worked in a grocery store for 17 years on the night crew and was really getting tired of it, to the point of depression. I went over this with my husband that night and signed up the next day. I quit the store in August and work only from home now. I have never been happier, I get to be a mom, a wife, and I now get to sleep at night!
I want to thank Susan for a better life and my entire upline for all your support and training. I have been plugging in and listening to training call after training call for the last few weeks. I have been really trying to get all the training I possibly can, I went to Dani Johnson's First Steps to Success in September and to see her in Dallas for her first Prospect and Close Your Way to Millions class it was AWESOME. I really recommend that if she does another class like that, and you can attend, do so. I think it has helped me very much. Every time I listen in on the calls I learn a few more things, thank you to everyone that does these calls they are great.

Cheryl Sexton, Senior Regional Sales Director
Wow! I have finally made it to RSD! What a Great Feeling!
I know this promotion is only the beginning for me, as I Love Working AmeriPlan® and helping other people get affordable health care benefits that they truly need. I am also passionate in helping others to be able to work from home in-order to build something "Great" for themselves & their families! I signed up to work AP in December 2005, however, due to a family crisis, I didn't actually start working the business until the mid to latter part of February. I didn't RSD in 30 days or less but that is o.k., because, I told myself that this is truly a once in a lifetime opportunity and I promised myself, I would not ever quit no matter how long it takes me to Grow my AP Home Business!
My "WHY" is my husband Jimmy, our children: Jeremy (27), James (25), Misty (23), Hayley (7), and our grandchildren: Hanah (9) & Jeremy Jr. (4)! And thanks to my husband's generosity, I was able to attend Champions Weekend in February 2006! I must say, this was definitely a life changing experience for me as I really saw the vision of AmeriPlan®. I learned a lot from the convention, I also feel blessed to have attended one of the most awesome sunday worship service's that I have ever been to! Thank You Mark! I am so glad that I am working for a "Christian Based Company" with so many in our company putting the Lord First! It was also great to be able to meet Sonja Dean, Becky Blacka, Janie & Michael Jones, Wendy & Kent Heimenz, Kelly Fuller, Brandy Gray, Joy Flake, Robin Slagle, Kelly Sutton and many other FAHT members including Mark Jarvis, and last but not least, my new friends Debbie Tuley, Sheila Morton, and Shalanda Lewis! If any of you can get to Champions Weekend, GO! It will truly "Change Your Life" and help you to move your business forward. Not to mention, A great tax write off!
I would like to thank God first and foremost for putting this opportunity in front of me! Secondly I want to thank my wonderful husband for his understanding and helpfulness as I am working to build our AP business! I also want to thank you Sonja, for always being there for me! I want to thank Sherronda & a big thanks to Janie, Becky, and all the team leaders for everything you do for our team! Last but not least, I want to thank all of my team: Nancy & James, Irene, Tiffany, Trudy, Mia, and Kathy and all of your team! You Guys are Great!
I just want to encourage everyone to put God first & foremost, stay plugged into the training, do something to move your business forward on a daily basis, give AP, at least 10-12 hours of consistent effort weekly, never ever quit and you can be making a 6 figure income in 2-4 years!
Remember to Always "DREAM BIG" and focus on your "WHY" each & everyday!
I love all of you in my new "AmeriPlan® Family" and may God continue to bless each and everyone of you in your Lives and in your AmeriPlan® journey!
Brigitte Wendt, Senior Regional Sales Director
Since I was a little girl and started horseback riding back in Germany, I had a dream, that one day I will be looking out of my living room window and I can see my horse grazing. In June 2005 my dream came true. I finally bought a house in the country, and both of my horses are with me.
Now I was also looking for a part time job, besides my full time job, to support my hobby. Then I found Anita Houser and AmeriPlan®. After checking with the BBB and checking again, then listening to a live business call, I've decided I am going to try to start my own business.
I liked the idea about being my own boss, and working the hours I like to work. So now, between making telephone calls, I'll run out to the barn and feed my two horses. This was just one dream I had. My other dream now is to retire in four years instead of six, and AmeriPlan® is going to help. I know I have to work hard, but I've been doing that all my life for someone else. Now I have my own business and it feels great to be an RSD.
Thank you so much Anita for all your help and encouragement. It's wonderful to have someone like you to count on for support SRSD here I come!
Wanda Bowers, Executive Sales Director
Executive Sales Director, WOW! I still can’t believe I’m finally here.
First, I thank God for his many blessings. I want to thank my husband, Roderick, for his support. To my big reason WHY, my son RJ, having you has change my life. Wanting more for your life, than just being average is why I am here. I want you to know that you have all the options in the world available to you, my Little AmeriPlan Prince.
A big thank you to SRSD Linda Moran who worked SO hard on this goal. Your determination and drive kept you focus and on coarse. I would not be here without you. Thank you to her three RSDs Rhonda Batchelor, Diane Flax & Jerry Dyer. It was a pleasure working with each of you on this goal and we look forward to you reaching your next level. I thank my entire team for your support and I know you all will be moving up soon. I am truly blessed to have each of you on my team!!
To NSD Anita Houser, there are NO words that can express how much I appreciate ALL you have shared with me. Thank you so much for all the conversations and advice that we’ve had. Also to my girl, ESD Shona Hill, girl we talk everyday about how we can grow our AmeriPlan business. I want to thank you for being there to talk to when things are not going my way. Thank you for encouraging me to get it done. Also a big thanks to SRSD Janet Slanton, we bounce our ideas back and forth all the time. I know that your day is just around the corner.
I want to thank my enrollers, NVP Janie and Michael Jones. I could not have done it without you. You are an inspiration to me and I know that when I am feeling down I can call you to lift me up. To our National Sales Directors thank you for all that you do.
To those of you that are in a slump right now! I have been there and done that. I have been with AmeriPlan 3 years now, I have had obstacles like most of you. For me QUITTING was not an option, no matter how long it takes stay in the game. If I had quit, I would not be where I am now or have this amazing team. So keep building your business and no matter what NEVER QUIT!!! Take it one day at a time.
Kristi Wooten, Senior Regional Sales Director
I am a stay at home mom of a five-year-old girl, Brittani and a two-year-old boy, Landon. I have been blessed to have had the opportunity to be home with them since Landon was born. I have looked for work from home off and on since I started staying home just for extra income. But nothing seemed legit and I didn't want to do home parties. So, I pretty much gave up the search. At the beginning of this year my daughter and husband were diagnosed with a blood disorder and medical bills started piling up. I needed to find a work at home opportunity that would help me to cover these bills. I ran across an ad in my local online newspaper for AmeriPlan® and I called the number given and reached Janie Jones. I was so excited to hear of a company that offered such an awesome work at home opportunity that actually promoted a service that I believe in, so I signed up right on the spot. And, the rest is history. I am so grateful that I found AmeriPlan®. It has been a blessing for my family and I. And, I am also grateful that I was led to Janie Jones. She has been such a big help and such an inspiration to me!
I am so excited about this opportunity! Next stop, SRSD!
Maureen Ciarolla, Senior Regional Sales Director
In my most recent career, I became an independent small business Human Resource consultant, due to leaving a position of Director of Operations for an employee leasing company, which was an extremely stressful and unscrupulous work environment. When could not find employment - I was 'overqualified', when in reality, no one wanted to pay me what I was worth or provide benefits.
I'm sure most of you can relate, no matter were you are or what you do. Anyway, in a search to find an edge for marketing my services, I was searching for an cost-effective benefit plan that small businesses could offer, (as many could not afford to provide benefits, while other businesses were deciding to significantly reduce their employees' benefit package), when I found AmeriPlan USA®.
I was very cautious before I would make any recommendations, so I researched AmeriPlan® and was quite impressed with their reputation and services. I even discussed AmeriPlan's services with a number of area providers, both dentists and chiropractors that I was acquainted with. Additionally, AmeriPlan's® prescription services could save my father, at age 77, about $500 annually on his diabetic prescription medication (even taking into account the monthly premium fee). Inconceivably, not only was AmeriPlan® a cost-effective plan, but I found affordable benefits that could be offerered to everyone and anyone, with no restrictions, and now I finally had benefits. I did not fast track with AmeriPlan® as my focus last year was building my HR consulting company. I ran into a wall (due to being told by a bank that I could not take on any new clients without putting up a huge amount of collateral and I was not even borrowing any money go figure) I took a different look at the business model of AmeriPlan®.
From the advice from Theresa Dosch and Janie Jones go to Champions Weekend it will change your life! there was no looking back this business is far more rewarding with a much greater future than I could ever have with my consulting business or any other JOB! I want to thank Theresa Dosch so much for the encouragement, support, nudging every once in a while and your friendship, Janie Jones for all you do and to all the IBOs on the Freedom At Home Team who give their time for training and their stories and support that make us all realize that we all face the same challenges and successes together as a team!
Kathy Bard, Senior Regional Sales Director
Hi! I am so excited, thought this day would come faster, but God knew I had things to learn along the way, I am married, mother of 2 biological kids and then 5 foster kids who, have all left home. I am a retired LPN, I got my license when I was 46 and then discovered that you can no longer be the kind of nurse I wanted to be so, retired myself, as pushing a pencil, is not my way of helping people, to all the nurses out there who manage to do it, I thank God for you!
So, I found myself in a position of needing to bring some money into the household, in a society that thinks only the young are capable of working. I had always wanted to work at home, but all the so called businesses that I tried, were dead ends. I prayed that a door would be opened for me, and God does answer prayer, here comes Shona. She gave me the presentation just like a pro, and then I hit her with the classic "have to talk to hubby" and set up a follow up appointment, which I am sure she thought would never happen, but I surprised her and signed up that very night.
She is an inspiration and a great role model, always there with an encouraging word or advice. I have plugged into all the taped training calls, and that is a big key!!!!!!!! Training and following those who have succeeded before us. I want to thank my God, a couple of twins, for giving us this great opportunity, Shona, Kelly, and all of our team. I am here to stay, and SRSD here I come....Games on! There is nowhere to go but up!
Have a blessed day!
Debbie Tuley, Senior Regional Sales Director
WoHoo! I am now Regional Sales Director! Even though this is the first pin level-It is an important milestone, nevertheless. I thought at the beginning it would be so easy to hit the RSD level, but my God has educated me on that preconceived idea! I was not interested on the pin level at that time; I was having too much fun with prospecting and forgot about the member side of the business.
As you can tell, I needed to focus on my main goal and not stray from it. So this business is about learning life's lessons. It teaches us it is more important how we deal with the triumphs and the failures that really count. I have become a more positive person due to AmeriPlan® and the extra training with Dani Johnson.
So like Thomas Edison, I never gave up and know I will go straight to the top, well, there is no doubt, life will make sure the road is not perfectly straight; it will definitely be an adventure!
I want to thank my husband, Andy, for his never-ending support in my business and me! Most brokers tell me their husband was their dreamstealer, but mine is my dream-maker! My friend and upline-Becky Blacka has always been there for me from the start. She is an amazing communicator, computer guru, and mentor! She shares her valuable time with me and also my team. You are awesome, Becky! I also want to thank Janie Jones for all the support she has given to me and to my IBOs that needed an extra lift to keep their eyes focused on their WHY.
Melinda Sauve, Executive Sales Director
I started with AmeriPlan® in Sept. 2005, after looking all summer for something I could do at home besides stuffing envelopes or doing surveys etc. It seems that most of us say the same thing—we've looked and we've looked until we found something that made sense. Since I've been with AmeriPlan®, other companies have called or sent emails trying to get me on their team but none of them shows the promise and TEAMWORK that I've seen from the Freedom at Home Team. After reaching this first step, I'm so excited and even more motivated to keep working even harder for our whole team.
My husband works for an airline in bankruptcy-the future was looking a little bleak for us-but now AmeriPlan® has given us new hope for a different future!
Many thanks to Robin Slagle(soon to be SRSD)-who has given me great help to reach RSD!
Alison Ardinger, Senior Regional Sales Director
Hello, I am the mother of 3 grown children and 3 grandchildren. I signed up for AmeriPlan® in March, and even though I didn't break any records getting to RSD, I never gave up. I'm not here to make records, I'm here for the long run. I told myself that no matter what it took I was going to master this business. Phew! I finally feel like I have. I want to thank my IBO Becky Blacka, without her help and guidance I never would have accomplished this. She has been a godsend. Thank god I found AmeriPlan®, and Becky!
Kevin Chantelle Heiskell, Senior Regional Sales Director
We are so proud to be associated with AmeriPlan® and are absolutely thrilled to have made RSD. We have worked for someone else most of our lives, so our "home" construction business is a wonderful blessing. We have loved many aspects of it, but have found that when a home business is predominantly operated outside the home, being self employed does not always translate into freedom. We see very little of Kevin. Our family and lack of time together is our "why". Plainly and simply, our boys and I want him home. AmeriPlan® offers us a true "home" business accompanied by incredible training, fellowship from an awesome support team, not to mention the advanced and residual incomes that when combined, make the opportunity absolutely unbeatable.
We've been with AmeriPlan® since late February and are certain that we will attain every level of success we hope for and consistently work toward. We are thankful to God for guiding us to this business, absolutely ecstatic to be part of this team and full of anticipation to see what comes "next". Janie, you're the best. We can never thank you enough!
Linda Platt, Senior Regional Sales Director
I have had lots of jobs in the past and have been laid off several times. In fact, I thought I was going to have to find a job outside the home again and decided to look one more time when I came across AmeriPlan®. I had previous experience in the healthcare field, including medical, dental, vision, prescription and chiropractic. I was previously a Claims Examiner for a number of years. So, I knew what AmeriPlan® had to offer was really a great thing. Now, I am in control of my future, so I won't be laid off. I'm working hard for my dreams, so they will become reality. I am working hard for me, not someone else. I'm pouring my heart and soul into my business not for an employer.
Another reason of "why" I want to be here for my family, especially when my kids are sick, even though they're older now. I remember when I was working at a job, I was afraid to take off, but I felt guilty when I didn't come home. I want the freedom of taking off and not having to ask off and the financial freedom to buy a houseboat to stay on at the lake and not having to go to work. I want to relax, enjoy and have fun with my family. I also want to bring my husband home, so he can quit his work of 27 years and we can enjoy each other and take long stays on our houseboat at the lake. We also want to travel and take some cruises.
I want to thank my IBO, Anita Houser, for all her encouragement, faith and all her help. She has always been there especially when I needed it emotionally. I also wish to thank Janie Jones, for all her encouragement and her passion for others, truly wanting everyone to succeed. She is an inspiration to me. I want to thank everyone on the Freedom at Home Team for everything. Seeing and hearing them succeed really helped me on my journey. My journey is only beginning and will continue on. I made it to RSD! And I'm going upward.
Vickie Crabtree, Senior Regional Sales Director
Wow! Senior Regional Sales Director! I finally made it! I certainly didn't win any sprint race, but I'm still in the Marathon! "It ain't over yet!" This is just the first re-fueling station. Time to take a quick refreshing drink and move on to the next goal, ESD.
One thing I've learned, is how important it is to verbalize your goals. I've always thought it didn't matter to actually speak them as long as they were in my mind--that should be enough-right? WRONG! When Kelly challenged me in the middle of February to make SRSD by Champions weekend 2 1/2 weeks later (and my team needed 13members!) I thought, "Kelly, you're nuts! There's no way!" But then I started mapping it out and decided Maybe there was a way, but then I came across a paragraph in "Think and Grow Rich" (the plumber's manual for Network Marketers) that talked about a guy that had planned a million dollar undertaking for 2 years and once he said, "That's it! I'll have the $1M this week!"-his goal manifested itself within 36hours! (With hard work of course)
I spoke my goal to my family and to my wonderful team, and with Kelly's help, we MADE IT HAPPEN! The day Champion's weekend began, I became officially, Senior Regional Sales Director! I'm so proud of Hope Coleman, Marcia Myers, and Wanda and Bill Brown! You guys are the best! You came through in a clinch and pushed it through. I see great and wonderful things in your futures! I love you guys! Fazeena Smartt, Tishcia Boring you guys made it to RSD shortly after Hope, Marcia and Wanda and Bill and I couldn't be more thrilled for you! And to the rest of my wonderful team, you guys are the best! You are all well on your way too! This team is doing fantastic things and I am so proud of ALL of you!
Kelly Fuller, you are the BOMB baby! You keep me inspired and motivated and kick my butt whenever neccessary and I am very appreciative of it! I am determined to make you proud of what you're helping me to become. If I can develope the ability to lead my team as affectively as you, there will be NO STOPPING US!
Thanks to God for leading me here! It was a long search to find AmeriPlan®, but a road well worth taking. Thank you to my wonderful family! My husband, Scot-The most supportive man in the world and my 3 beautiful children, Katrina, Jake and Taylor, who now tip-toe into the room and wait for me to either nod or shake my head before tattling on the other two at the top of their lungs! (because with my headset on, they can't tell if I'm actually on a call) I love you guys! You are my "why". We have a beautiful life, and are on our way to even more blessings thanks to AmeriPlan USA®!
I see a wonderful future ahead! Together we will MAKE IT HAPPEN! Remember, QUITTING IS NOT AN OPTION! (and why in the world would you want too?)
Melody Fitzgerald, Senoir Regional Sales Director
I DID IT!
It's been a fight the past few weeks to keep my head high and to keep that old me, the "quitter" quiet. But I had something to stand on, I had direct confirmation that I was to quit my dream job, I know God told me to do so. A week after I quit my job, I was a bored stay at home mom, questioning my big decision, and decided to surf the net. I ended up seeing an ad posted by my IBO Kelly Pira that just jumped out at me. I was cautious, I took the time to really read through the info and just to be certain, I watched one of the videos on the Freedom at Home website, there was my confirmation! My husband's highschool friend's parents, Mike & Verna McDonald! I had met them, I had been to their house, my husband had rode in Mike's viper, and it became real to me, I had found the right company!
I will not quit, I'll just keep fighting my way to SRSD. Regina, I told you that you'd be hearing from me! I'll have that $4 million dollar inn on the coast of Maine and you'll all come out for a convention to celebrate your success & mine. But most of all, I'll be taking part in my 2 son's lives and be there for my husband when he's home. I've already got my husband's pink slip written, I'm on my way to firing HIS boss!
Thank you God, Thanks to my IBO Kelly Pira (I wanted to go on this journey with someone who's a go getter like I am and I've been blessed to have you), Thanks to Jainie Jones for the daily encouragement, Thank you Mike & Verna McDonald for being such an example, and to my husband & friends who've been very supportive when it took incredible faith to give up my income! Thank You AmeriPlan® for giving me my dreams back, that's hope, and with hope, your joy returns!
Jennifer Roth, Regional Sales Director
I am so blessed by the Good Lord with AmeriPlan®! I know he does everything for a reason and I know the reason he allowed me to find AmeriPlan®is to get my husband home and bring financial peace to my family.
My husband is an over the road truck driver. So needless to say we very rarely get to see him and we have 4 beautiful children that we have been blessed with. Ages 10, 9, 3 and 16 months. I put our two oldest children in Daycare when they were younger and I worked outside the home for a long time. Of course because I never went to College the jobs I could get paid very minimal. By the time our 3rd child came in 2003, I was working just to pay daycare. It was ridiculous. So my husband and I made the decision that we would go down to one income and I would stay home. It was so hard. We really did live paycheck to paycheck. We even had to go to "Gods people helping people" which is where they hand out food to people that cannot afford it. That was very humbling. I knew the Lord had a better plan for us.
I looked on and off for a little over 3 1/2 years for a way to work from home. I tried a couple scams that took my money. But I never let that discourage me from continuing my search. I saw and heard about people working from home it seemed like every where I looked and I thought to myself there has to be something legitimate out there if so many other people are working from their homes. I found AmeriPlan® and my Incredible mentor Colleen Gatto on June 1, 2006. I was so pumped up about AmeriPlan® from the beginning. I think I got on every single training call there was and still do. I knew this was it! I knew this is what I was intended to do!
Things started very slow for me. I struggled a bit in the beginning just like I think most of us do.But once my two older kids went back to school this fall I jumped in full force! I knew the ONLY way AmeriPlan® was going to work for my family is if I Worked AmeriPlan®! So that is exactly what I did! I knew that no matter how long it took I would reach all of the goals I had set for myself. I am so greatful that I had Colleen as such a HUGE support system. She is not just the lady that signed me up, we have become life long friends. I feel so blessed to have her in my life.
I started working my AmeriPlan® business consistently everyday and with the support and encouragement of my mentor Colleen Gatto and Regina Morris I was able to not only start generating some checks but really start building my Dynasty. I feel so privilaged to be able to work with such Talented,Caring and Inspirational women. I absolutely Love our team support. I have never seen anything quite like our team. Everyone is always there to lend a helping hand and I do not know where I would be today if it had not been for the wonderful support of this Team.
I am so appreciative of all my team members. All of the people in my team have been such a huge inspiration to me and I know each and every one of them is going straight to the top! I feel honored to have so many Great business partners taking this life changing journey with me and I am just so greatful for all of the blessings that have come to my family since signing up for AmeriPlan®. We have never been able to afford to take a family vacation and because of how much we are rewarded for our hard work we can now take the Family vacation we have always been dreaming of.
Thank you for this GREAT opportunity and chance of a lifetime. For the average working family AmeriPlan® really gives us the chance to live the "American Dream"!
Marjorie Butler, Executive Sales Director
I'm so happy to be a new RSD. I have been a stay at home mom for 16 years and have loved and truly felt blessed for every minute of it. As soon as my youngest son started 1st grade, I decided it was finally time for me to pursue some of my own interests. I wanted to learn and grow in the business world. AmeriPlan® has allowed me to learn so much: some logistical, a lot of computer skills, but mostly I've learned about people and communication.
That is what this business is really all about anyway, being able to help people save money and be able to work at home. I've probably taken a little too long to reach RSD, but there is no stopping me now.
Thank you so much Kelly Fuller and Lisa & Darren Dempsey for so much encouragement. As Kelly puts it, GAME ON!
Kathy & Ken Teese, Senior Regional Sales Director
After being in the ministry and pastoring a church for 6 years, When my husband (Ken) decided that he needed to take a Sabatical for a while, I quickly started looking for a New Ministry. I asked the Lord to help me find something to do from home, That could also serve as a Ministry, since I was used to ministering and praying with people, the Lord led me to Matt and Stacy English's Web Site. And after looking at the videos and all the information about the Health Benefits, I knew this was my New Ministry. So immediately I went to work talking to people about the Opportunity and Benefits, and the Lord has blessed me Abundantly! If people call and they don't want the opportunity or the Health Benefits, Then I offer them prayer. Many call back with Praise reports of what the Lord has done in their lives.
AmeriPlan® is an Awesome vehicle for reaching and helping many hurting people who need Love, acceptance and encouragement in their daily struggles and I am Privileged to be able to show them the Love they need. Ken & I are also privileged and Honored to be in National Sales Director's Ronnie & Cindy Harms Group as well as Sr. Regional Sales Directors Matt and Stacy English, our IBOs, and to be Associated with so Many Loving Caring People.
This Group is like one Big Happy Family. Always showing Love and Concern for one another. Reaching out a Helping Hand when there is a need. We are Truly Excited about the Future of AmeriPlan® and the Ministry the Lord has for us in the Future!
We know that we can do it because: “We can do all things through Christ who Strengthens us!” Philippians 4:13
See You At The Top! God Bless You All! Love Ken & Kathy Teese
Amy Letts, Senior Regional Sales Director
IBO to RSD in Less than THREE weeks! Wow! I can't believe this. I want to thank all those who helped me along the way, the cast, the crew and of course - the Academy! WAIT A SECOND! Sorry sorry, sorry, WRONG DREAM. I can't believe this! I want to thank, well I will thank in a second! The Big Dream! We've all had them. You know what yours is. I set out to reach RSD just as fast as I possibly could! LESS Than 3 WEEKS! Yes, it's true! And you can do it too!
My "why" starts off with my kids. I want them to have everything I didn't and more. I want to send them to the best schools, the best camps the best tutors, the best activities! I want to have the free time to spend with my family! Yes, I want my dream house, this is true too! But also, I want to show ALL those people in my life that I can do it! I didn't finish college and that's a huge thing in my family! I simply have not lived up to their "expectations". Well guess what? I am about to raise the bar! No one will steal my dreams!
Advice for IBOs: Don't let negative people pull you down! MOVE ON! You can't help those who don't want it.
Thank you! Thank you! Thank You! My IBO Paige! You go girl! You are awesome! Always there for me at all hours of the day, and night! Answering tons of questions! What a great inspiration! I really lucked out to have such a strong amazing IBO! Thank you farmer chick! You are the best! AND Becky Blacka! Poor Becky! Don't think she knew what to make of me at first but when she realized that diarrhea of the mouth is just a "pre-existing" condition for me, it all became clear! Thanks Becky so much for being their to help me and answering all my questions. You have been so great and patient! I can't wait to meet you two at convention! I am so EXCITED!
Stephanie Dakin, Senior Regional Sales Director
Wow, I FINALLY made RSD! It took me a while to get here, but the journey was well worth it!
I thank God for leading me to AmeriPlan®, and especially to Regina Morris's information. I started looking for some data entry work to do from home about a year ago. My son was just a few months old at the time, and my maternity leave was coming to an end. I had a home party business that was mildly successful, but I really needed something that didn't take me out of the house. It wasn't until 6-1/2 months ago that I came across Regina's posting about AmeriPlan®, and I am SO thankful that I did!
Regina, thank you so much for all of your help and support! I also want to thank Janie and everybody on the FAHT and GIDR team that have helped me along the way.
This business has allowed me to improve myself, and it has also strengthened my relationship with God. It also has given me hope for a better way of life for my family.
Here are some things that I recommend that have helped me:
Keep expanding your comfort zone. Keep stepping a little farther outside of your zone and you will find that your level of comfort keeps growing!
Keep plugging in to the training that is available to us! I have seen improvements in my personal life as well as my business by attending training calls and listening to Dani Johnson and Ellie Drake.
Focus on your WHY. If your WHY isn't strong enough to help you overcome your fears, find a new WHY. Something that Dani Johnson said on one of her calls really resonated with me. It was something to the effect of "How would it feel to tell your child, I'm sorry that I had to miss (your play, your game, etc., but I was too afraid to pick up the phone and work my business.) My son is my WHY. When my phone starts growing fangs, I think about how great it's going to feel to be home full time, and it gives me the boost I need to get out there and start prospecting.
Amy Sun, Senior Regional Sales Director
SRSD! Wow! Can you hear a huge sigh of relief coming from my end of the computer? I don't think I've ever worked harder for something in my life and I'm so excited to have reached this goal! I made SRSD on my birthday, making it the most special birthday ever, and one week before my one-year anniversary with AmeriPlan®! It's amazing what can be accomplished through teamwork and when clear goals are set. And I'm not sure, but I think I may have set AmeriPlan® history with the smallest team ever to have made it to SRSD (only 8 people!). Go team!
I want to thank my three amazing ladies who have worked so hard to reach RSD themselves. Lyndsay Meier we've been on this journey together almost since the beginning and I'm so glad that we're in it together! You were one of my first IBOs and my first RSD and you are one of my closest friends. Alicia Montanez - what a woman you are! You set a goal and you make it happen! I love talking to you every day, you cheer me, encourage me and bless me. Michelle Jackson, my newest teammate and you came to it ready to go! You hit RSD in just over a month. I'm so impressed with you and each time we talk my walk with the Lord deepens. I'm so grateful that God brought each of you to me. You are blessings to me in more ways than one! SRSD is just down the road for each of you!
HUGE thanks to my mentor, IBO and friend, Kristie Wooten, who has taught me the meaning of teamwork and leadership. I think the biggest joy of reaching SRSD was to see Kristie reach ESD because of it! I was more excited for you than for me! Thank you for all the help you gave to each of us and for investing in my life in more ways than can possibly be counted!
Mostly, I praise my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ for giving me hope when I felt hopeless and reminding me daily that I need to keep my eye on the prize and press on for the glory of Christ. This is truly His blessing to me and my family. And speaking of my family, of course they're my WHY! My precious husband asks me daily if I've signed up anyone and keeps cheering me on and my little one, Serene, raises her hands and shouts "Praise Jesus" each time we have a victory. I love you all. Thanks for standing by me.
I can't say enough how valuable it is to work together as a team. The best advice I can give for getting your goals accomplished is to keep in touch with your up-line and cross-lines! If each of us had been trying to reach our promotions on our own, we'd still be struggling to do it. But together we made amazing things happen, and you can too!
Reginald Stinson, Senior Regional Sales Director
Well, well, well. I am as just surprised like alot of you might be. I set my goal to reach SRSD before 2007 convention and it happened. It's like it happened overnight and I believe it's my destiny to be successful with this company. First of all, I will like to thank God for opening my eyes to the AmeriPlan® vision, my team members for stepping up, Olga Melo, RSD, Nicole Moemai, RSD, and Shonte Kennerly, RSD. You guys are great and this wouldn't have happened so fast without you guys. I would like to thank my favorite upline Elizabeth Carter, ESD... for finding me when my original upline quit and for her support and availability. I would also like to thank Anita Houser for her support and encouragement. And finally I would like to thank Rebecca Lomis Stephan for her script. I started with it and signed up 4 IBO's my first week using it. You are awesome Rebecca. All of you guys are great teachers and have all played apart in my success. Thank you Janie for laying the foundation and putting an awesome system in place for us who came after you.
Laura Cloose, Senior Regional Sales Director
Well, its official, I have made REGIONAL SALES DIRECTOR finally! It took me exactly 2 months & 16 days to promote to Regional Sales Director. I enrolled as an IBO on March 6th, 2006.
I want to first thank God for giving me my wonderful husband Greg and for him being so supportive of my business. He has been great in helping me care for our 16 1/2 month old daughter Emma, when he is home I am able to get a lot more work done. She has reached such an active stage that I have found it easier to create a work schedule and stick to it. With his support I am able to make phone calls without a baby tugging at the phone cord or crying in the background. She is teething right now, so life's been a little difficult for her.
I also want to thank my awesome enroller, Melinda Sauve. Without you, I would have never found AmeriPlan® and all that it has to offer. You are so supportive and I just love talking to you. I feel like I have found a friend thru this process too! Well, a few of them that's for sure. I also want to thank Robin Slagle, Becky Blacka, my bootcamp leader Susan Goodknight, Kelly Fuller & of course Janie Jones! I absolutely love everything about this company and everything that it offers. If you haven't made Regional Sales Director yet, DON'T GIVE UP! I didn't fast track and I was fine with making It when I was able to get there. One thing that helped me achieve that goal was a SCHEDULE, this is the first thing you will want to do. I found it too easy to be on the computer all the time. It gets to be too much. Plus, it takes time away from family and friends. Plan time for AmeriPlan® and stick to your schedule. It will be a lot easier then. I was also very persistent with any leads that I purchased. It payed off BIG TIME! If you don't use APLAN.BIZ for your member leads, it is definitely time to sign up for it! Well worth every penny spent! Check with your enroller for their link to sign up under.
A BIG THANK YOU to all my IBO's on my team who helped me get to RSD! Now, lets work on getting you promoted to RSD! If I can do it, so can you! The "Q" word isn't even an option and its not even in my vocabulary. I know that I have developed an awesome team in the process and I look forward to seeing each one of you achieve all your goals as well.
Don't let your dreamstealers get you down. My immediate family (other than my husband) isn't all that supportive. They aren't exactly all negative either. Just very skeptical. I just keep telling them what I am doing with this company and they will soon see just how far I can go! All the way to the top! I love Kelly Fuller's saying "Some will, some won't, so what, NEXT! I have found that to be very true! Then, the ones that aren't serious, I just say "next"...and keep moving! It's not worth getting attached or emotional over...there are other people that are serious and I am not willing to waste time on those that are just "sitting on the fence" as Janie would put it. Just keep going.
Renee Vasquez, Senior Regional Sales Director
I HAVE MADE IT! WOO HOO! I AM SO EXCITED TO BE A RSD. I ABSOLUTELY LOVE BEING PART OF "THE FREEDOM AT HOME TEAM."
I can't tell you what a true blessing AmeriPlan® has been for me and my family! It has been such an amazing ride so far. I knew that there was something legitimate out there for me to do at home...to be able to be there for my two sons Brandon (7) and Anthony (11 months).
I had looked off and on for 2 years for something legitimate to do at home. I am wheel chair bound, and so working from home was my only option. I like many others had gotten involved with some dead end opportunities that ended up showing me nothing, but empty promises and No paychecks. Then one day I went to my mail box, pulled my mail out, and saw "Home Business Connection" magazine. I was at my wits end and I almost through it away, but a little voice just told me to take one last look.
So I did, and I found AmeriPlan® or should I say AmeriPlan® found me! So I called & left my information. When I answered the phone, Renee Winans was on the other end. She went through the presentation, and said AmeriPlan® was registered with The BBB. That was all I needed to know. I only had $2.34 in my account and for me I saw the big picture and was signed up right there on that call! There is nothing more rewarding for me than helping people save on there healthcare costs and to stay at home with there children. So AmeriPlan® has just been amazing to me, because I never thought that it was possible to work at home to be there for my children and be able to work my way to 6 figure income. I will never quit working my business and I will never give up on this company, because I know this company will never give up on me. And there is nothing better in this world like being able to work the hours that work best for me, and the hours don't work me.
I have a motto and that is "QUITTING IS NOT AN OPTION." So Don't Give Up, Never Quit, Keep Your Focus, Be Proud Of What You Do, Stay Plugged Into The System, Have A Passion For What You Do, and Reach For The Top! See You At The Top!
Thank You So Much For Helping Me Find My Freedom At Home And For All Of Your Support Renee, You are far more than my just my Sponsor and my Mentor you are just like a sister to me. Thank You Again!
Tiffany Ivy, Senior Regional Sales Director
I'm married with two kids, ages 15 and 11. We live in Bridge City, TX. It's a very small town so I didn't know how well I would do with this company. I thought you needed to be in a big city. Boy was I wrong. Even in small towns, we have providers and people need the benefits.
My family has always been my first priority so I've always wanted to work from home. The other work from home opportunities all required you to do parties, stock products or travel a couple of hours away for training and conventions. I wanted something I could truly do from home. When I first saw the ad, I was interested but skeptical. After all, I'd tried other things before that didn't pan out. I took my time and researched the company, then signed up two weeks later. I saw the big picture, but my warm market didn't. I kept going though and didn't let them stop me. I did have some setbacks that prevented me from Fast Tracking to RSD, such as a death in the family and a hurricane. But I knew I'd make it there eventually and I HAVE! Now I've set my sights for SRSD and nothing's going to stop me!
I can't thank Elizabeth enough for all the support she's given me, both emotionally and business-wise. I am blessed to call her friend as well as my business partner. I also can't thank Anita enough for all the support she's given me as well. You're a great leader Anita and I'm honored to be part of your team.
Deborah Hagan, Senior Regional Sales Director
Hi, My name is Deborah Hagan and my daughter Brandy Gray is my IBO. Learning about AmeriPlan® from Brandy was something I wasn't sure about until she ask me to ride with her a couple of hours away from home to a Regional Office Meeting called Super Saturday. Well, I was SO EXITED on our way home. We learned so much during this meeting and got to meet a lot people and a few NSD's. With AmeriPlan® you make friends for life. That's a great feeling! I knew this company could change our lives. I signed up as soon as we arrived home. Although my life is very busy working a full-time job also. I will always make time for AmeriPlan®. I know in time that I will achieve the goal of NSD with the support and enthusiasm of my daughter and of course her AWESOME team.
Stacey Hill, Senior Regional Sales Director
Thank You Jesus! I've learned several things in my trip to RSD and one is that in order to achieve my goals, I have to be willing to take those small seemingly insignificant steps each day to propel me forward. I remember reading in an RSD bio. a couple of months ago that the secret was in the doing. At the time, it didn't make a lot of sense to me. But it does now. You can't master a skill without practice. You have to be willing to fail in order to succeed. It's those consistent daily steps that propel you towards your goal. I know what to do, I just have to do it! And if it isn't working, I need to find out why and keep going. Quitting is NOT an option!
Less than two years ago my husband unexpectedly lost his job. Just 5 days earlier we found out we were pregnant with our second child. With his final check came the notice that our health insurance would be cancelled in exactly 7 days. We were devastated and terrified. Our first child had me hospitalized for 10 days with pre-term labor. I made it through but that bill was over $40,000 just for those 10 days. After several more trips to the hospital and bedrest, we delivered Garrick at 36 weeks. He cost our insurance roughly $67,000. I remember being so thankful we had insurance and here we were pregnant again and this time with NO INSURANCE and no income to pay the $400/month for Cobra! So, that's a big part of my WHY! I never again want anyone to have the power to break our family financially. And I don't ever want anyone to unnecessarily have to deal with the fear of financial ruin because of the lack of insurance.
I've made Jeremiah 29:11 my AmeriPlan® verse. "I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." God is using AmeriPlan® to strengthen my faith and to remind me that I serve a loving, merciful God. He's also using so many of you! Thank You to EVERYONE who's supported me on my journey. And special thanks to Debra Zalvan, my IBO and Susan Goodknight, my boot camp team leader. You guys are awesome! See you at the Top!
Tracey German, Executive Sales Director
Wow! I finally made it! It has been a long journey but I never gave up until I made it! First of all I want to thank God for leading me to this opportunity! I am so fortunate to be at home raising my kids who need their mommy! Also I could have not have done it without the support of my family and Becky Blacka! Becky you are a true inspiration to all of us and you have provided so much training and support along the way! Also thank you to Janie for all of her team calls and the training that she gives to our team! You are helping so many people to achieve their dreams as well as your own!
I look forward to everything that the future holds for my family and I with AmeriPlan®! To my team, I hope to see all of you at the top someday! Keep plugging away! I know there are mountains to climb but it will all be well worth it in the future when you achieve your goals and your dreams!
Kim Schilt, Senior Regional Sales Director
I finally made it, RSD! Thank you Jesus! I signed up for AmeriPlan™ quite a few months ago and have enjoyed every minute along the way. When I saw Tina Sarnicola's ad in the paper I knew then that this was the business for me. I love being home, making money and best of all I love helping people. I have done many different jobs at home but nothing ever worked out.
I finally made it to RSD with the help and support of two wonderful people, Tina Sarnicola & Becky Blacka. I want to thank you both so much for being there for me whenever I needed you. Tina, I want to thank you for helping me make this happen and Becky for being there for ALL of my questions. You guys are great!
I will continue my journey to the next level, SRDS, also loving every minute of it. This business has changed my life and my outlook on life. I talk with so many people throughout the United States about this business with excitement because I am excited about it and I know they feel it. Everyone has the potential to do well in this business.
I want to thank my whole family for their support. My husband, Rich, has been there for all of my crazy adventures with my home jobs but this one he is so happy I found. They all have faith in me and know I will make it to the top, and I will. I love getting up in the morning and talking with my team and helping them move along and they are all do so well, I am proud of them.
I want to wish the best to all of you in this business! I will now continue my journey! See you at the top!
Laura Marie Camisa, Senior Regional Sales Director
Hi everyone! My name is Laura Marie and it is with great joy that I behold my new position as RSD. As a writer of inspirational books through which love, humor and healing are ministered to both children and adults, I have a heart which beats with the passion to help others by bringing them the glory of faith, joy and victory. AmeriPlan® has added much spark to that flame within me by proving to serve as a vessel through which financial victory is achieved. I truly embrace it as a golden nugget from above, providing a miraculous way to be set free from the bondage of debt and the oppression of financial duress, while at the same time, bringing joy to all those with whom it is shared.
It is with much love and gratitude to God Himself for sending me my IBO, Celeste Green. She has taken a heartfelt interest in training me up to reach RSD and has bestowed a magnitude of patience and above all, genuine love, in doing so. Celeste has made me to feel kind of like a baby dove in training, helping me every step of the way until I could fly solo.
I have come to learn that our journey through life is not always smooth, with all of us having to face trials and tribulations at one point in our lives. I am quick to say that living under a state of financial duress is living with a "rubble of trouble" clogging up the roadway. There is nothing more glorious than being set free from that which has us bound, which is why I am beaming to have reached my level of RSD. I consider AmeriPlan® to be a giant, shiny gold key which unlocks the prison door and makes me financially free. Thank you, Celeste, for being the angel who turned that key. May you continue to grow because you greatly deserve it.
Before closing, I want express my gratitude to Becky for being the special person that she is also. Becky has always and I mean, always, been packed with kindness and a beautiful spirit of help and encouragement. It is people like Celeste and Becky who make the AmeriPlan® family a refreshing haven in this world. God bless them both!
I expect to grow as an IBO for AmeriPlan® and have fun "rolling in money" for a sweet change in my life! Continuing to help others through my books will always be my passion but shedding the glorious light of financial freedom through AmeriPlan® is now something which has taken hold of my heart in a very big way. Thanks, AmeriPlan®, for including me, little ol' Laura Marie, in your family, and may God bless each and every one of us as we all climb the ladder together!
Christina Wiler, Senior Regional Sales Director
Senior Regional Sales Director! WOW! DONE! Now on to ESD. Before that, though, I have to say, I may not be the fastest mover and groover in this business but I am proof of what consistency, hard work and dedication can do. I hit RSD right before my 3rd baby was born in April of this year and it has been a bumpy ride for the last 7 months. I never would have guessed that SRSD would creep up on me by the end of the year!
I have to thank my family first and foremost, for supporting me. My babies are way too young to even begin to understand why in the world Mommy is in her office and on the phone so much! I have to send a million thanks to my husband, Tom, for taking on so much at home so that I can work my business. You won't be sorry, I PROMISE!
Thank you to my wonderful team of brokers, not just my front line, my entire team, thank you all! You are all working so hard. Thank you all for your friendships as well, I love that I have found new friends in you guys, not just new brokers!
Shara & Sherry, I know you two are on my heals, you are building great teams and I love it! I am rooting for you every day!
Marjorie & Kelly, oh my goodness! What can I even say, except, THANK YOU! You both have been there for me through the roughest of rough moments and the highest of highs. I feel like I have 2 best friends in you guys and we haven't even met in person. This is an awesome business and I thank both of you with all my heart for believing in me, encouraging me, believing in me, helping me, believing in me, boosting me up, believing in me, and for putting me in my place when it needed to be done! (oh, and did I mention for BELIEVING IN ME?) I love you both like you were my sisters and I can't wait to officially 'meet' you in February at Champions Weekend!
I really could go on forever but I have a business to get back to...so ESD, here I come!
Danielle Browning, Senior Regional Sales Director
Wow! I am so excited to make RSD! I feel so blessed. Thank you Father, for putting me on this path and helping me along the way. When I started I was told that this could be done in a month. That was my first personal challenge. It has taken me a month of solid work, but well worth the effort. I did it! If I can do it, you can too!
Thank you Kathleen Strooband, my IBO, for all of your support and training. You are the best! Thank you Kelly Fuller for believing in me and being available when I had questions and needed that extra hand. What treasures you two are to me!
I have raised five children, been a single mom, and struggled with the daily grind, all for someone else's dreams. When Kathleen contacted me, I couldn't even afford the $50.00 to get started. But, I knew, this was my opportunity to change my life for the better. Today, I am working for my own dreams and with AmeriPlan®, I'll reach them!
Tammy Rossilli, Senior Regional Sales Director
Broke, desperate, broke, depressed, broke, tired of struggling just to make ends meet - that is where I was a little over a year ago - did I mention BROKE? I worked outside the home for most of my 3 kids growing up years - missing all their precious "first time events"- first steps, first words - you know the things that you can never get back. It was a sitter who would call and describe it to me. I would cry my eyes out every time and tell myself " There has to be a way, there has to be something - somewhere that I can do from home, make enough money to just pay my bills, feed and clothe my family - that's enough for me!" So I tried different things only to be more depressed and discouraged because I either spent more then I made or had no support, no one to guide me so I could make money!
Then sitting at the computer one night I came across Ameriplan - I was skeptical (like most are after being burned so many times) the more I read, listened to I started to get encouraged - I dare say "Hopeful"! This made sense - A service that is NEEDED by the masses in this country - affordable healthcare and I knew I was not alone in my situation - there are so many that are looking to be home with their families and make an income. IT MADE SENSE!!! I requested and interview and have NEVER looked back since.
My life has changed so much in just the year that I have been with the company, and continues to improve everyday! I missed my kids moments - but thanks to God and Ameriplan I will not miss a moment of my future grand kids "firsts" I KNOW that - I will not have to struggle to make ends meet - I will not have to say "we can not afford that" to my kids and their kids ever again! The BEST thing is I am helping others - just like me - be able to make the life that they want and deserve. That "there's got to be a way" place is right here - I HAVE found it - AMERIPLAN

First, I would like to thank my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ! He is truly an on-time God!
I can't believe I am here (RSD). I signed up for AmeriPlan USA® February 2007 and in less than 2 months, I am here shouting from the mountain top. I am looking forward to hanging up my badge and gun with the Police Department. I have to send a special shout out to my FAMILY for supporting me. I thank God for my IBO, Kathleen Strooband, for all the motivation, support, and encouragement. I would like to say to all the IBOs, "DREAM BIG!" If I can do it, so can you!
Kate Mills, Senior Regional Sales Director
WOW! I am so excited to be a part of AmeriPlan®. It is great working with such positive and uplifting people that want to help and enjoy in your success. What a change from the ususal corporate structure - this is truly a breath of fresh air!
My why is my family and I am going to do all I can to build and establish an income that they are comfortable with. I currently work and am doing AmeriPlan® very part time. It has only taken 3 months to make it to RSD giving very little. To imagine what can be accomplished giving my all - WOW! I desire to give more time to this because I can see the Big Picture with AmeriPlan® and there is so much more potential and growth here then with any other company. Can't wait till I am full time.
I want to give a big "THANK YOU" to Kathleen Strooband, you are awsome and so supportive - I really appreciate you! And thanks to Kelly Fuller and Janie Jones who I look to and see where I want to be with AmeriPlan®. Well, all I can think of to say now is: "Game On!"
Linda Moran, Regional Sales Director
This is so exciting! I started with this business on June 15, 2007, earned RSD on August 31st and here it is November 16th, almost 5 months from the day I started, and I've reached SRSD. From the minute I learned about AmeriPlan® I have been excited. I was thrilled about being able to offer such great benefits, as well as giving others the opportunity to grow their own business. Some days are harder than others, but, there is never a day that goes by that I don't thank God for letting me find AmeriPlan®.
I am so thankful for the GREAT business partners that I am surrounded by. The Freedom At Home Team could not possible be a more fitting name for our group. Thank you and Congratulations to Wanda Bowers, our newest ESD, for her patience, persistence, and motivation. Thank you to Janie Jones who is always there to assist in every aspect of our business, to help us grow, and reflects the goal we all strive for. A HUGE Congrats and thank you to Rhonda Batchelor, Jerry Dyer, and Diane Flax, who all worked so hard to get to RSD's themselves and brought me to SRSD in the process.
I am looking forward to continued success to and for everyone in the AmeriPlan® family, and to my very next goal of ESD!! Onward and upward!!
Jocelyn Wiebe, Senior Regional Sales Director
Greetings from Wisconsin! I have been with AmeriPlan since April of 2007. One of my former jobs was working for the Wisconsin Women’s Health Foundation, a non-profit focusing on women’s health, so when I came across a way to help people save $$ on all their healthcare needs, I knew this was the home business for me! I love the fact that we are service-based, not product-based as well.
I am married and have 2 wonderful boys, ages 2 & 6. It is my desire to build a fantastic income in the next few years so I can thoroughly enjoy these 2 precious boys in the future, and not have to worry about how we are going to pay for things for them.
I have BIG goals and dreams, and know that all of them are going to be checked off my list because of what I am going to accomplish in my AmeriPlan business.
I wish you the best on your journey...stay focused and never, ever give up or quit!
Jean Stinich, Senior Regional Sales Director
My husband Wes and I signed up for in this business being empty nesters. I was so excited about the vision of the company's founders. About giving people a chance to build a will able business to pass onto their children. It has been our pleasure to share this business with many people and extend savings onto to people for the medical and dental care. What a blessing it has been to be introduced to such a wonderful idea. The support I have received from Susan Goodknight has more than words can say! I do not have a college degree, but this is my chance! I am so excited to become a Senior Regional Sales Director! My first goal has been accomplished, but onward and upward to ESD and beyond...
