Why I chose Rodan and Fields

When our first son was born, he had severe food allergies which would manifest itself in extreme eczema.  While having to deal with a restricted diet of mostly bacon and applesauce, nightly AquaPhor rubdowns and a constant wardrobe consisting of long pants in the sweltering Oklahoma summers, Carson never ceased to amaze me with his cheerful attitude and infectious smile.  While he never let it get him down, there were often times he would confess to me that he was deeply hurt by the embarassment his skin caused him when others would look and stare.  Having dealt with this for 8 years, Carson learned to adjust and simply considered it a way of life.  However, as parents, we would have done anything to ease his pains and embarassment that this has caused him.  In fact, my amazing wife would often times find out when the parties were at school so that she could prepare a gluten free cupcake for him to enjoy with his friends.  She actually got pretty good at sneaking them into the regular cupcakes so that it would not draw any additional attention.

About a year ago, my wife's friend introduced her to Rodan and Fields SOOTHE regimen.   The SOOTHE worked amazing on Carson's eczema, not only clearing up current outbreaks, but also eliminating the scars from over 8 years of his incessant scratching. While R&F sells an amazing line of products that are proven to work, they also offer a business opportunity for those interested in direct selling.   Owning a business and being the parents to 4 kids, we decided that we would be customers rather than consultants.  Until.....my wife began using the Anti-Age (recently rebranded as REDEFINE).   She was so impressed with the instant results that she decided to sell it to her friends as well.   I thought she was crazy, but soon realized she is not really having to sell a product.  Once a person uses it, or see's another persons results, the products really sell themselves!

Since we are probably the most competitive couple to ever survive 13+ years of marriage, I decided it was time to compete at this as well!  I signed up under her so that I could give her a headstart before I really got going.  When we started our industrial supply business in 2005, we had a "20 Customer Scramble" to see who could get the most customers.  Her prize was a Coach purse and mine was $500 to spend however I wanted.  Today, I am proud to say that I am $500 less wealthy and she is still using the Coach purse that she won by handily beating me in our first of many competitions.
