Become a mompreneur this Women’s Month

In the current tough economic times of high unemployment and rising cost of living, more South African women than ever are looking for convenient ways to supplement their families’ incomes without disrupting the flow of family life. Becoming a NeoLife distributor is one way of doing this.

In Women’s Month, a new term for these women who start businesses has emerged – mompreneur – a perfect description of a stay-at-home-mom who doesn’t want to leave her children while pursuing a full-time job, but rather sets up a business working from home, in hours that suit her.

NeoLife (formerly known as Golden Products and GNLD) is an international company that offers people, particularly women, an opportunity to build sustainable and profitable businesses, with low risk and without start-up capital, through the promotion of top-quality nutritional supplements, earth friendly homecare and organic skincare products.

Drew McDermid, Vice President of NeoLife in Southern Africa, explains, “The NeoLife business model has a 50-year history of successful operations in South Africa. It enables women to increase their income with no capital requirements outside of a small sign on fee of under R1000. Distributors promote the NeoLife range of high-quality products to friends, neighbours and community members.”

NeoLife offers extensive training, business tools, personal development and ongoing mentorship to ensure distributors are successful.  To date hundreds of thousands of South Africans have benefitted from becoming NeoLife distributors.

“The company also gives distributors a personalised website and mobile app, and provides warehousing, marketing, logistics and training backup. This allows the distributor to focus on the key income-generating aspects of their business,” adds McDermid.

NeoLife mompreneurs happily tell their stories. Heidi Kelly of Pretoria says, “Being part of the NeoLife Family has been a source of much happiness for me. It’s kept me busy and motivated, allowing me to focus on self-development and doing what I can to help those around me.”

One NeoLife distributor recounts how she has progressed to an Emerald Director with her own team of distributors. “The great gift of Neolife is a range of high-quality products that we share with thousands of people that need their benefits.  I started by telling at least five new people every day about NeoLife and its products. Today, the commissions generated monthly are a consistent second family income that validates all my efforts.”

Drew concludes, “To all the potential mompreneurs out there, why not consider becoming a NeoLife distributor? No capital is required, training and support are given and you can even start the process before the end of Women’s Month.”
