DeAnn Champagne

Senior Executive Director

I was a stay-at-home mom and wanted to find something where I could make some additional money while still raising my two boys. While searching the Internet, I came across Thirty-One. After reading about what the company stood for, I knew it was the right opportunity for me. It was attractive because it was so reasonable—only $99 got me on my way! Also, I was only the second Consultant in my area, so I felt it was an awesome opportunity. I still recall the day I signed on and my husband said to me, &ldouq;This is not a job, this is a hobby.&ldouq; I proved him wrong. I started with Thirty-One in March 2007, and by February 2010 I became an Executive Director. We, as a family, have been on vacations and paid for other wants without putting it on a credit card. Thirty-One has given me a name for myself and boosted my self-esteem because I – along with my team – have accomplished more than I ever dreamed. I have become a more confident woman knowing I can do things for myself. It has helped me become a better wife, mother and leader. The friendships have also been a blessing. My personal growth has exceeded my expectations, and my life as a whole is much better for it. The Lord has truly blessed my business and me! Go for it! Just dream, believe and achieve!
