I was immediately drawn to all the possibilities of a direct sales business – from vacations to recognition to a life-changing income.
I started my business doing in-person parties but quickly realized that if I wanted all the things, my family schedule couldn’t support that. There just wasn’t enough room on the calendar.
Then I tried Facebook Parties.
To say online parties changed my business would be the understatement of the century. I instantly fell in love with the ability to work where and when I wanted to and expand outside my local area.
My business exploded, and I found myself quickly growing a team from all over the United States.
During that season of growth, I also found myself juggling way too many balls. We were experiencing some serious growing pains, and most of it fell on my lack of systems. Because I’m no quitter, I decided something had to change, so I became a student of efficiency.
I read all the books and took all the courses. What came out of all the testing, learning, and mistakes, was a proven system for growth. I figured out where my time should be spent and on what tasks. I created systems for booking parties, host coaching, creating party content, and onboarding team members.
It was a well-oiled machine! Because of those systems, within 2 years, I had built a team that produced over $1 million in sales per year just on Facebook. I earned awards, traveled on multiple incentive trips, advanced in rank, and was part of the top 1% of the company.
All of that brought me here.
As an entrepreneur at heart, I saw the need for something more. I wanted to help other direct sellers achieve the same thing. As a leader and now as a coach, I see way too many direct sellers confused and overwhelmed by the business. So our mission at Savvy Selling is pretty simple.
Building a successful direct sales business takes time and focused effort, but it’s not complicated. It’s pretty simple, actually. And we would love to show you how to do it.

Like the rest of us, Barb thrives when she has a huge cup of coffee in hand.
