About Me


Eldon Beard receiving sponsoring award at Watkins Conference 2007Hello! My name is Eldon Beard. I appreciate you stopping by! Like many, I tried a number of MLM / network marketing business opportunities and at one point just about gave up for good. I was frustrated, and tired of trying to convince people to sign up with me.

My first experience was with Amway. I did not do well. I couldn’t relate to the way I was taught to build that business. I exhausted considerable time and energy trying to sell people on what a great business I had. “Fake it ’till you make it” was the battle cry. That approach just didn’t appeal to me.

After Amway, I signed up with Shaklee and later tried a couple other promising opportunities. I enjoyed some success, but not what I was looking for. I knew there had to be more to this - a better way, perhaps.

During the mid-1990’s, I had the privilege to serve as the moderator and leader of the “MLM Forum” on America Online. In this position, I learned a lot about the industry and what it takes to succeed. I enjoyed meeting and learning from some of the top leaders in the MLM / network marketing world.

During my time with AOL, I discovered some new ways to approach MLM and network marketing that made a tremendous difference in my attitude and success in this industry.

Two things became very clear to me:

  • it makes no sense trying to convince people to join my business
  • it makes sense to be professional and have opportunity seekers contacting me when they are ready to do something

Just grasping this concept and moving past the old fashioned, pushy, hype-filled approach to MLM / network marketing was such a relief!

After searching and trying all these different opportunities, I found a home with Watkins. I could not ask for more - top quality home and personal care products (including the best cooking spices and extracts you’ll ever find) that people love and want to use, and a stable company with an excellent reputation.

Watkins has proven to be a winning opportunity for me, and I highly recommend the business for anyone seeking to make money from home.

When I am not working with Watkins, I enjoy running (I don’t like to call it jogging) as an active sport. Health and fitness in general is a passion of mine, and I enjoy looking for ways to improve my health and enjoy the best that life has to offer.

Another thing I am passionate about is helping others find the right home based business and achieve success. This is one of the main reasons I have built this site. I hope I am helping you, in some way, on your journey to success.

I also find pleasure in spending time and doing things with my wife Laurie and our children (Ethan, 10, and Erin, 5). We have been blessed in so many ways.

Thanks again for taking a few minutes to visit. If I can help you with anything related to network marketing or MLM, please don’t hesitate to contact me.
