ShopToEarth is always excited to report the success representatives have as ShopToEarth e-commerce business owners. Recently, we received an email from Patrick Lull who shared with us a phenomenal win he experienced with a new client.

Patrick Lull joined ShopToEarth in August 2008. Although he didn’t see immediate results, he wholeheartedly believed in the unlimited potential of ShopToEarth’s opportunity. With genuine optimism, he faithfully shopped through his online store and shared this savings and earth friendly opportunity with as many people as he could.

Finally, all of his hard work paid off and we share this success story from Patrick P. Lull:

Meta is my dad’s neighbor in Old Chatham, NY. Although she owns a corporate plane leasing company, she also rescues Beagles. Up in Old Chatham, they breed Beagles for the hunt clubs. As the dogs age or if they underperform, they get rid of them. She tries to rescue as many as she can and currently has a herd of 24.

I’ve had dinner at her home a few times. One day, I casually asked if she ever purchased products for the dogs online at PetMeds. She said she did. Her response gave me an idea and the next time I visited with her I brought the list of retail stores with me and told her a little bit about ShopToEarth. I didn’t push but merely asked if she would shop through my store the next time she bought anything.

Soon after, she purchased $1919 worth of flea medicine for the dogs. As a result, I received  $307 in cash back and 300 points, simply by asking a friend to shop through my ShopToEarth Retail site.

This ShopToEarth business will happen for all of us in a big way. Just keep plugging and chopping away, the big trees will fall.

Congratulations, Patrick, on your ShopToEarth business success and thank you for inspiring us with your faith and dedication.

Direct Sales Industry Proves to Be a Home Run in Today’s Economy

Fort Lauderdale, FL – June 5, 2009 – – It’s the major leagues for direct sales company ShopToEarn/ShopToEarth (Twitter @shoptoearn or @shoptoearth) with the news of Jeff Conine joining the business network. The Florida Marlin’s All Star recently signed as a ShopToEarn broker for green reasons including health, wealth and social responsibility.

“Besides the organic and eco benefits of ShopToEarth, what appealed most to my family and I was the fact that we did not have to sell a certain product like a juice or cleaning product,” said Conine. “This is a business that involves saving money while shopping for the things we already buy at our favorite stores. It also is an opportunity to bring my family and friends into an incredible business opportunity.”

Conine says he is not a “mall type of person” and is attracted to the fact that his family can shop at all the retailers they normally buy from. The only difference now is shopping online, which provides allows them get cash back and saving money. Whether it is books for his kids from Borders, Sun Warrior protein shakes for himself or the skin care line his wife has been buying for years from their dermatologist, they are now buying these products at a fraction of the cost via retailers on the ShopToEarth network.

How did Conine get introduced to the business? He was in the right place at the right time. His decorator led him to ShopToEarn while he was looking for a possible direct sales company to partner with and was considering Monavie. After Conine met with ShopToEarn’s Rich Soviero for a ShopToEarn/ShopToEarth business overvew, Conine said, “It was a no-brainer decision.”

“Every time I think to myself that I not only got to meet Jeff Conine and his wife Cindy, but that I went to their home and helped introduce them to this amazing business, I’m blown away,” said Soviero. “I was smiling from ear to ear while in their home and my wife was home dying because she has been a huge Conine fan for years. The Conine’s excitement with Shop To Earn has excited me even more. If you think about it, there are not many businesses out there that you can be involved with a major league player like Jeff Conine. He is an All Star on and off the field and we are proud to have him in our business.”
The ShopToEarn/ShopToEarth news crew went on location to film video testimonials for the Shop To Earn/Shop To Earth network at Conine’s home in Weston, Florida. Five videos were produced detailing ‘Mr. Marlin’s’ personal and business experiences with ShopToEarn.

The clips were filmed in Conine’s personal memorabilia room and will be used as part of Shop To Earn’s social media PR strategy. The videos will be released on Shop To Earn’s Facebook, YouTube and Twitter channels.

Conine calls Shop To Earn his “third career” after winning two World Series with the Marlins as a player and now serving as a Special Assistant to the Marlins’ President in the team’s front office.
