Jim and Julie started using Shaklee products 30 years ago at the urging of Jim's father Bob. Jim noticed health benefits in just two weeks time at age 22! 

 

He and Julie started building a Shaklee business with good success until they decided to travel the world, working in England and Australia. When they returned to the U.S. in the 90's they started building again. 

​

After having two children and deciding to homeschool them, the business was put on maintenance mode for 11 years. In October of 2009 they started the ball rolling again and "This time we are in it for the long haul!" replies Jim. "We were looking at our last bonus recap and realized that Shaklee had paid us over $194,000 since January of 2000 and we worked an average of 24 hours per YEAR!!! That is over $808 per hour! Where else on earth can you have an opportunity like that?"

 

Jim shares his testimony, "My father worked 12 to 14 hours a day when I was growing up and when my mother died in 1977, he moved away to Detroit, which made a relationship even harder to develop. When Shaklee came into his life and he passed it on to me, we became very close for the next 16 years before he passed away. I can truly say that Shaklee gave me my Dad! I will be forever grateful to Shaklee for that."
