“But I’m terrible at selling anything!”
You don’t need to be a salesperson to become associated with the All Natural County Store. Join our Wholesale Shopping Club instead.

Those early Watkins salespeople really knew how to set up a display of products.

When I was a boy, I was a terrible salesperson. I remember attempting to sell magazine subscriptions door-to-door in order to make some spending money. What a failure that was. All during my professional career, I had full-time positions that provided a nice steady income, and didn’t require any selling whatsoever.
The last time I had a 9-to-5 job, I taught real estate and property management at a private school in Orange County. But when the real estate crash happened, so did the number of students needing professionals to help them prepare for the California Real Estate Exam. Therefore, my position was eliminated.
Then along came Alan Lukes, who was looking for a partner to help him develop a business associated with an established, 140-year-old company called Watkins. Yes, it involved selling, but Alan promised he would handle the training of a sales force, while my expertise as a writer, editor and marketing specialist would be put to good use.
That was five years ago. Today we have some 50 consultants who sell Watkins products through our business name, the All Natural Country Store. That takes us back to your declaration – “I can’t sell a darn thing!”
But we’re sure you like to save money. For the low membership fee of $40, you can join our store’s Wholesale Shopping Club, and receive 25% off the retail price on more than 250 Watkins products. In fact, think of the membership as costing you just $20, since we give you a $20 gift certificate just for joining the club, which you can use for the products of your choosing. What a deal is that?!

Still skeptical? Call the All Natural Country Store and ask for a catalog. We’ll mail it off to you with a brochure that provides further details about our Wholesale Shopping Club. You can also place a request for a catalog by emailing us at WatkinsProducts@charter.net.
