Good Holiday News from For Every Body!

Merry Christmas For Every Body
For Every Body Employees Gather Christmas Eve Dinner for Local Widows and Single Mothers and all those who have no local family for the Holiday.
Lindon, UT – December 22, 2009 -- Today, Becky Anderson, working mother and founder of the nation’s largest minority-owned candle manufacturing company is pleased to share a story of good will and Christmas cheer.
According to Becky Anderson, this week an employee of hers was saying that she and her three kids had no plans for Christmas Eve and that the employee’s nine-year-old-son said he wondered if there were other people who also had nowhere to go for the holiday. The mother (who wishes to remain anonymous) asked around and found that there were 29 widows and several single mothers’ in the local area who also had no local friends or family or plans to spend Christmas Eve in any particular way. It was at that point that the mom and her children decided to invite all those without plans into their home for Christmas Eve dinner.
As word spread of the holiday efforts, more and more people joined in to suggest people who may need a place to go for Christmas Eve dinner and the numbers are still growing. Already neighbors and friends are donating food for the Christmas Eve dinner and loaning chairs and tables for the Christmas Eve event which seems to be growing.
According to Becky Anderson, when her other employees heard about the idea of sharing Christmas Eve Dinner with widows and single moms they decided gifts were needed too. Several For Every Body employees offered to donate their own Christmas Bonus Gift Cards to the cause and For Every Body donated the rest.
“People love to give and during the holidays we often join in on organized efforts to help the poor and needy, but often we forget about the others who are doing okay yet just need a little company at Christmas time,” said Becky Anderson. “I love that one person’s solution to their lack of holiday plans was creating a party for others in the same situation. No one should be alone on the holidays, look around you find those who don’t have family or friends around, and invite them into your home for the holidays. I doubt there is a better way to celebrate than by opening up our doors and our hearts during Christmas.”
According to For Every Body employee who has been helping organize efforts and wrap the donated gifts from For Every Body for the Christmas Eve party, Evelyn Call, says that as word is spreading more and more people are joining in to help.
“If you know of someone who would like to join the Christmas Eve dinner or if you would like to donate to the dinner, please contact us. We hope to spread a little Christmas company to those who might be alone on Christmas Eve.”

The year 1806 and my Christmas Spirit today!
I memorized the following poem by William Wordsworth when I was in high school. A couple of times over the years as I have gotten a little consumed with Christmas shopping or keeping up with the Joneses, this poem will pop into my head. Yesterday as I worked a full day, picked up a few last minute gifts and then baked 3 batches of cookies,made 5 Christmas casseroles and ended the day by running a load of laundry . . . there it was again! This poem, written in 1806, is as relevant if not more so, for us today. I was too tired to care too much last night, but this morning at the crack of dawn (literally) I rose up early to have a moment to just be, to just breathe, to remember who I am, what my goals are, what I love about my life . . . it felt so good. Now I feel a little more centered and as I return with a less hurried and more thankful heart to the work that is necessary for the season . . . I feel alive and well and filled with the spirit we all want to have for the holidays! If you like . . . please read and enjoy . . .
THE world is too much with us; late and soon,
Getting and spending, we lay waste our powers:
Little we see in Nature that is ours;
We have given our hearts away, a sordid boon!
The Sea that bares her bosom to the moon;
The winds that will be howling at all hours,
And are up-gathered now like sleeping flowers;
For this, for everything, we are out of tune;
It moves us not.--Great God! I'd rather be
A Pagan suckled in a creed outworn;
So might I, standing on this pleasant lea,
Have glimpses that would make me less forlorn;
Have sight of Proteus rising from the sea;
Or hear old Triton blow his wreathed horn.
William Wordsworth, 1806

Way to Go David Ryan!
The Thatch Pub Owner Dave Ryan Takes his Pub Online and Hosts New Radio Show with Web Campus World Wide
Waterford City, Ireland & Spanish Fork, UT, USA – December 18, 2009 – Web Campus World Wide co-founder Tom Egan and Kim Power Stilson today announced the selection of David Ryan as a new talk show host addition to their team.
David J. Ryan, a self-made entrepreneur and graduate of the University of Aberdeen in Scotland and soon the Waterford Institute of Technology (WIT), who focuses his time on his thriving business and commercial development projects. He owns The Thatch a pub at the edge of beautiful Waterford, Ireland found that he needed to do more to attract business using his Website and online tools. He took the eMedia Survival Series from Web Campus World Wide. The eMedia Survival Series is a 5 Step online course that teaches small business owners how to market, sell, connect and compete online.
"I had been struggling to get my Website ready to attract travel customers across the globe to my little pub in Ireland,” said David Ryan of The Thatch Pub. “I took the entire 5 Steps of the eMedia Survival Series and it changed the way I did business offline in the pub and online with my site and strategic promotions.”
According to David Ryan, if you think you are too busy to learn a skill that will help increase customers, build sales and align your business than you will never succeed. He says it did not take much time or much effort to learn what he didn't know about marketing online.
“It was terrific for my business and for my ability to engage and retain help. I can't do it all myself even now but I know what needs to be done and how to hire the appropriate help. I am a lifetime fan of Web Campus World Wide’s 5-Step eMedia Survival Series!"
Dave’s success was such that he was invited to join the Web Campus World Wide Talk Radio Network as a weekly talk radio host on “21st Century Success” radio show. You can listen to his shows on www.WcWW.com. You can visit Dave Ryan at The Thatch Pub most weeknights where they play live music and serve excellent fare. When not coaching or on the radio, you’ll find Dave, with his own guitar and mandolin, playing round the fireplace. Visit in person or visit virtually at www.thethatchpub.com.
Guests are booked by date with a producer, and call in via phone or Skype. For interview requests, please contact chad@WcWW.com .

Congratulations Bonnie Conrad!
Award-Winning American Woman Artist, Bonnie Conrad, Exhibits at Impressions Fine Art Studio During Gallery Walk in St. George, Utah
This painting called, The Lady and her Mare. Bonnie Conrad, best known for her Western and Women Image Art, will be featured in a St. George Art Walk this December.
St. George, UT & Woodland Hills, UTAH – December 3, 2009 – Nationally known local artist Bonnie Conrad of Windance Fine Art, today announced, her upcoming Art Reception at Impressions Fine Art, during the Gallery Walk December 11th -26th at 189 North Main Street, St. George, Utah.
A graduate of Brigham Young University, now a resident of Woodland Hills, UT, Conrad's oil painting is distinct in its passion for color, its celebration of light and its somewhat impressionistic approach. Bonnie is the recipient of several prestigious art awards and has been invited to join several organizations including American Women Artists.
According to Bonnie Conrad, mother of six and grandmother to several, her work is motivated by color -- the fascinating play between complements, the mysterious subtleties of gray tones and the endless possibilities for mood. Conrad is deeply concerned that her work should always lift the human spirit. Her summary is
“I want the art enthusiast to hear the drumbeat and feel the excitement radiating from a dancing Indian child; to re-live a tender moment between a mother and her offspring or to taste the dust and feel the sun on their face as they view a western ranch scene,” said Conrad. "I want the world to be a finer, lighter, brighter place for my having painted here."
For more information or to view her online collection, please visit www.bonnieconrad.com or for media information please contact Kim Power Stilson, 801-615-0035.

Barbara Williams Becomes the First For Every Home Consultant in the Continental U.S. to Reach Unit Director
After 35 years working for someone else, Barbara Williams Reaches Success with her own For Every Home Business
Blytheville, AR– December 10, 2009 – Becky Anderson, today announced that Barbara Williams, wife of Danny, mother to two, grandmother to 5, is the first of their For Every Home Consultants in the continental U.S. to reach Unit Director Status.
According to Barbara, after 35 years working in the school system and corporate world, she started her home party business because she fell in love with the product. Barbara states that she likes the fact that For Every Home considers their consultants' opinions.
“The founders of For Every Home, Becky and Paul Anderson, ask for our opinions and consider our input,” said Barbara. “I like being treated like that and I knew other women would too. My business is based on women, their ideas, their influence, their efforts and that is why I, and others like me, are so successful!”
It all started because Barbara felt she had a contribution to make and wasn’t being fulfilled in her then position. She had purchased a “sugar cookie” candle from sister company, For Every Body, and loved it so much she wondered if there was a way to make a business selling them. When she called For Every Body, she found they were starting a home party business and she waited anxiously to be a part of For Every Home's launch. Barbara became a consultant and built her new business after work hours. Two years later, she has a home business she is proud of, has won several trips to Cancun, Mexico and Salt Lake City as well as various other gifts and has met many wonderful people.
“I love being a consultant with For Every Home because it supports other women with great ideas and shares wonderful products at a great price,” says Williams. “I never thought I would be a savvy business owner yet I am very thankful to be a part of this growing company. I absolutely believe that we have the best product, know that Becky & Paul Anderson and the For Every Home staff are the best you could find anywhere. What's not to love?”
In 2007, Becky Anderson founded For Every Home to help make a difference in women's lives. As the successful founder of a multi-million dollar company, she is using over fifteen years of experience to give women the tools they need to make their business successful. All of the products at For Every Home are created by Becky and her team. She watches trends closely to make sure everything offered is something women will love to have in their homes. At For Every Home, business and fun begin at home. Join the family!

After 35 years working for someone else, Barbara Williams Reaches Success with her own For Every Home Business
Blytheville, AR– December 10, 2009 – Becky Anderson, today announced that Barbara Williams, wife of Danny, mother to two, grandmother to 5, is the first of their For Every Home Consultants in the continental U.S. to reach Unit Director Status.
According to Barbara, after 35 years working in the school system and corporate world, she started her home party business because she fell in love with the product. Barbara states that she likes the fact that For Every Home considers their consultants' opinions.
“The founders of For Every Home, Becky and Paul Anderson, ask for our opinions and consider our input,” said Barbara. “I like being treated like that and I knew other women would too. My business is based on women, their ideas, their influence, their efforts and that is why I, and others like me, are so successful!”
It all started because Barbara felt she had a contribution to make and wasn’t being fulfilled in her then position. She had purchased a “sugar cookie” candle from sister company, For Every Body, and loved it so much she wondered if there was a way to make a business selling them. When she called For Every Body, she found they were starting a home party business and she waited anxiously to be a part of For Every Home's launch. Barbara became a consultant and built her new business after work hours. Two years later, she has a home business she is proud of, has won several trips to Cancun, Mexico and Salt Lake City as well as various other gifts and has met many wonderful people.
“I love being a consultant with For Every Home because it supports other women with great ideas and shares wonderful products at a great price,” says Williams. “I never thought I would be a savvy business owner yet I am very thankful to be a part of this growing company. I absolutely believe that we have the best product, know that Becky & Paul Anderson and the For Every Home staff are the best you could find anywhere. What's not to love?”
In 2007, Becky Anderson founded For Every Home to help make a difference in women's lives. As the successful founder of a multi-million dollar company, she is using over fifteen years of experience to give women the tools they need to make their business successful. All of the products at For Every Home are created by Becky and her team. She watches trends closely to make sure everything offered is something women will love to have in their homes.

Women in Technology Have Big Hearts
This is a great blog post by Becky Anderson of For Every Body . . . I work for her but I think she rocks! :) She really gets what it takes to be a mom and a savvy business woman and she still has a big heart! ;)
I received this great email from Kim Kim Chiu, Assistant Director of Career & Technical Education at Utah Valley University! They asked for a donation of 30 bottles of our yummy smelling For Every Body lotion and candles for their gift bags for young mothers and we are only too happy to help because they are doing some great things for the community. You may read this, like I did, and want to help too!
The holidays can be tough for people at any time but if you are a struggling young mother with a baby to care for the world can sometimes be a pretty cold place. As a mom and grandmother and the owner of For Every Body and For Every Home, I applaude the efforts the Women in Technology Organization is making! Good for them! And, good for you if you can share a little Christmas Cheer to help their project!
Women in Technology Christmas Project
On Friday, December 11, 2009, UVU’s Women in Technology student organization and UVU staff members will be spreading some Christmas cheer at the Legacy High School in Springville. The Legacy program helps young mothers graduate from High School in a supportive environment and provides daycare services within the facility. We will be providing lunch for the students and will distribute presents for the mothers and their babies. In addition to these presents, we will help out with much needed formula and diapers for the high school to use in the nursery.
This is the second year that the UVU Women in Technology has helped with donations for the Legacy High School. Our goal is not only to help out with monetary necessities but expose the girls to opportunities to improve their situation. We emphasize the importance of post-secondary education and provide information on different programs that can help them should they decide to go to college.
Many of these girls think college is beyond their reach, so we start talking about the one and two-year programs which is easier for them to envision. It is our hope that we can inspire them to move forward and become self-sufficient with the right kind of training.
Call Kim Chiu if you want to help too!

We can lean on friends!
Last night I needed a solution to a tough problem. I thought of a friend I “used to know” someone I hadn’t talked to in a while, someone I knew who might help me find a solution. I looked for her in my phone address book and texted a note to her, “Is this you?” meaning I hoped it was the right friend. She texted, “yep it’s me!” and I shared my problem with her though we hadn’t talked in months. The next morning she texted back the solution to my problem, not just advice, but the entire solution. I was amazed! Grateful! I asked (as our polite moms taught us) what I could do for her and she texted, “Kim that is what friends are for! If we don’t have friends to lean on during these tough times we won’t make it, we won’t survive. I am happy to help!”
She then went on to share how tough things have been for her, her husband laid off and a failed business partnership. I asked what I could do for her and she said, “If I think of anything I will let you know!”
Now here is something important to note the solution she had provided for me was within her line of work, something she could charge for, and she did let me know that if I needed more than that she would charge me but she was happy to do what she did for me, gratis, for a friend this time, for free. “Why would you do that?” I asked. She said, it was simple didn’t take much time and she knew I needed help. If I needed more she would send rates, but again she was happy to help and (get this) glad I called or well texted.
I thought about her this morning, a friend I “used to know” was there for me, when I needed her, to support me without a price. I wondered if I was that kind of friend and I hoped so. I think her text words are so accurate now, perhaps, more than ever before in recent history with all the bad things happening around us. “If we don’t have each other to lean on how do we survive?”
I love her words, she is right. We need each other. Thanks to Social Media and the Internet and Web we can reconnect with old friends. We can talk like we used to when we met in the halls or at the store and say, “how are you?” “How’s work?” “cheer up” “I know someone who could help you with that!” in ways that were constricted by geography only a few years before. Now I can see what my “used to know” best friend from high school is having for lunch just be reading her Facebook wall. Thanks to Social Media we are all in contact again.
So, today, after that great experience with my friend, I want to make sure I am that kind of friend too. Whether you “used to know” me or whether we talk daily, I want you to know I am here if you need a friend to lean on. Whether you need a new recipe, advice on raising giant dogs, or a little marketing and advertising help! Here is what I can do to help, if you ever want or need it. Obviously, I do Social Media and marketing along with a weekly talk radio show about business. I once had a friend interview on the show, no cost to her, and she sold 12 of her quilt making kits. Maybe not a lot of sales, and I surely can’t promise, but it helped her pay that month’s bills. So, if you need a little extra help marketing, I can help in this way . . . I can share advice, I can give you Free advertising or interview you on my talk radio show, I can edit or write if you need a quick hand, you can lean on me, first time free.
Perhaps you don’t need that kind of help? I don’t have many other talents, certainly not singing, but I can put together tasty, inexpensive Crockpot meals or desserts in 2 minutes or less. I am a good listener. I may know someone who needs someone like you to hire. I may not be able to give you a solution but I probably know someone who can. In those ways and any other you may be able to think of, like my “used to know” friend, am happy to help! Now having written that I am going to challenge you, as a good friend would, to share your talents, if you want and if you can! What can you do to ease another’s burden? If we don’t have each other to lean on, how do we survive? It’s just a thought I came up with this morning, and it is up to you!
Either way, I want you to know I care, you can text me anytime and ask “Is this you?” and you can be sure of reaching a friend you “used to know” who loves you still and will help if she can!
She then went on to share how tough things have been for her, her husband laid off and a failed business partnership. I asked what I could do for her and she said, “If I think of anything I will let you know!”

The Dawn Before the Storm
It is Saturday morning . . . the sky is that whitish back shade that let's you know the day is coming. My husband has left to take the LSAT . . . for the second time . . . and the kids and the dogs and my brother and his wife and baby are all still blessedly asleep. The house is quiet. The mountain hovering over our neighborhood of houses on the hill is motionless waiting to watch the bustle of the day. I am calm. There is no phone, no instant messaging, no emails. Only the written voices and posted faces of friends and colleagues on Facebook to distract me if I wanted to dive into social company at this early hour. I choose instead, for now, to write. Lately I have been in the school of hard knocks. It has been a period of time that has containted death , destruction and almost every trial in between. A period of time I have not been able to title til last night when my husband suggested that we were in some sort of training ground, not ulike a college education process . . . thuse the school of hard knocks came to my mind as a perfect title. A way to put a name of the un understandable fates that have plagued me. I won't bore you with the details of loosing loved ones, businesses, pain, and suffering, you have those details of your own. Maybe not in the time frame of the last few years but you have had them. And I am sure as you have struggled you have struggled with the faith to believe that there is and end. I have daily gotten out of bed, prayed for that day to bring a solution, a light, a reminder of miracles and still the suffering continues. On some days hope will spring in the form of a friends suggestion, a song on the radio, a positive opportunity, a hand out of love, and then some days there is nothing but the trudge through hours. People say, "look on the bright side" "the glass is half full" "there is a silver lining" and "the hour is only darkest before dawn." I hear this and I believe it was for them and others in this world, but I still wrestle with the hope that it applies to me. Does the Lord grow tired of listening to pleas? Did they call the line just before me? I guess I worried about that til we came up with the title for our period of duress. the school of hard knocks. If your life is almost unbearable and things for now are out of control and hard to understand then I suggest doing what I have done. I am pretending I am enrolled in a course, in my case a hefty college course. My education includes experience learning to turn grief, loss, scarcity, lonliness, sadness, rejection, being squased, effort resulting in nothing, hurtfulness of others, effort returning exhaustion and nothing else, pain (yes, all of that) into the title of education. Yes, I am experiencing a world class education from which I will graduate someday . . . soon I hope. As I go through the school of hard knocks I only advance each course as I do my homework, complete my assisgnments and pass the test. I learn what I learn and then advance. Each course is a hardship which I must live through and overcome. I must learn something and apply it to my life. My attitude as I go along affects the outcome of my grade, like the citizenship grades of the past. If I handle myself with good grace my grade is better. Some of my classes have lasted longer than a semester and some of my classes I have had to repeat. Obviously not learning the first time what I needed to learned I was flunked and sent through course D of hard knocks again. Some courses I aced immediately, painful or not I recognized the subject lesson and passed the test. Now as I write this the pink shades of dawn have stretched out over the sky turning it from whitish to pale blue and I see why so many people find the dawn worth waiting for. It is lovely. Lovely like graduation day from the school of hard knocks. Now, if you like me worried that that school of hard knocks was a life long education, never fear, it is not. Just like the series of educations you receive through life it comes in a time period which has a beginning and an end. Think of elementary school, high school . . . it seemed to go on forever but when you had learned what you were meant to you graduated, triumphed and gloriously went on to the next phase of your education or your life. The school of hard knocks come to those who need pass through a deep education before going on the next stage of their life. Unlike a college education you don't get to choose when you take it, the school of hard knocks enrolls you when it's time. Sometimes this education starts simply and almsot without notice and then sometimes you are enrolled into the toughest classes, like calculus was a nightmare for me, immediately. I was enrolled in the school of hard knocks a few years ago, the first lessons were loss and death. (Yes I started with the tough classes. I guess someone thought I needed to get those classes out of the way.) And I have gone on to take others in love, life, busimess, pain and stress. A few of my classes have been fun, like the elective classes you get to choose. I have learned sharing, art, and even scuba. Yet now somehow I feel my education is nearing completion. I don't know how I know but something inside me, like the beginnings of the dawn outside, tells me that this round of education in the school of hard knocks is nearly complete. I will graduate soon (I hope) to experience a time of joy, success, advancement. After school comes the application process, learning what I have applied and proving my teachers right or wrong about whether or not I was ready to graduate. When I graduate from the school of hard knocks there won't be a cap and gown, pomp and circumstance, no ceremony. I will know I have graduated when bit by bit I can breath again, when success comes my way and allows for relaxation from worry, and rooom for overflowing joy. Remember the heavy class loads of each semester in school and the relief that comes with passing the final test in each class? Now compare that to the real final relief of graduating! Leaving the education behind. When I graduated from high school I knew I had college ahead, but to finally be done with the series of lessons learned and some of the teachers was an incredibly freeing feeling. Sure I would miss the friends I made there, but I didn't have to leave them, I could take them with me as I carried off my diploma! Graduating finally from the school of hard knocks doesn't mean there aren't other education series' ahead of you. It just means you passed this one. It means you learned what you had to learn in that part of your life enough to graduate and move on! Like the dawn after a very dark hour, you realize again that all is right with the world and that you have the tools to live well with. You have the education that showed you that you could survive the experiences. You now can move on. You have graduated. If I have learned anything from the school of hard knocks I have learned to appreciate abundance. The abundance of opportunities to smile with you kids every day to the abundance of real financial freedom to the abundance of dawns that keep coming, morning after morning, enrolled in school or not. When I graduate I will let you know, because I am going to throw a really really big party! Kim Power Stilson

Spherion & Power Strategies to offer Social Media Survival Solutions to Small Businesses
Good news for Power Strategies! Locally-owned, Spherion and Power Strategies, Inc., have partnered to offer a Small Business Marketing Survival Series to businesses who need a reknewed and updated focus on marketing to build sales volume.
Spherion, a staffing and recruiting solutions company, has experienced the results of economic downturn like many businesses. Ron Zarbock, the owner of the Wasatch front franchise, suggests that creating sales that get people back to work is the obvious path to success. The key to that success is finding new, effective and inexpensive ways to market and promote what businesses are selling. Ron wanted to help his business and the businesses he services succeed.
“I knew I needed to really get online, engage in social media marketing and learn about Internet and Web promotions. The Small Business Marketing Survival Series 5-part, 7 volume series covers everything thing I know about strategically marketing and promoting my staffing services,” said Zarbock. “I found the Small Business Marketing Survival Series to fit every need as a manger of several small businesses and a non-profit organization,”
The Small Business Marketing Survival Series, caters directly to business owners, unlike more expensive and technical offerings available. The Survival Series features the award-winning “24 Hours to Zero Down Marketing” 24 hour step by step small business marketing strategy builder and workbook and offers four more guides which cover Internet, Web and Online social communications information, advice and suggestions to apply to their business. It comes with 7 physical guides, and online video and audio trainings. Hiring someone like the author, Kim Power Stilson, (named “Social Media Marketer of the Year 2008”, by an online education company) to come in to do this personally for your company would cost $15,000, she offers her Small Business Marketing Survival Series for $599, with an additional discount for business organizations like the Provo Orem and Salt Lake City Chambers.
“More than ever before in the history of the world this is the time for small businesses to grow, flourish and become the big businesses of the future.

Spherion, a staffing and recruiting solutions company, has experienced the results of economic downturn like many businesses. Ron Zarbock, the owner of the Wasatch front franchise, suggests that creating sales that get people back to work is the obvious path to success. The key to that success is finding new, effective and inexpensive ways to market and promote what businesses are selling. Ron wanted to help his business and the businesses he services succeed.
“I knew I needed to really get online, engage in social media marketing and learn about Internet and Web promotions. The Small Business Marketing Survival Series 5-part, 7 volume series covers everything thing I know about strategically marketing and promoting my staffing services,” said Zarbock. “I found the Small Business Marketing Survival Series to fit every need as a manger of several small businesses and a non-profit organization,”

New York and 60 stories of falling glass
I had no idea my life could end that day. It was autumn in New York, I had been there for 10 days and had spent practically every daylight hour holed up in my hotel room working for the army of clients I was representing there. I was making a lot of money but I was exhausted and I missed my family. Finally after completing my projects I had 6 hours to kill before I had to leave to catch my plane. I planned to spend those hours outside in the sun. The weather was perfect “autumn in Manhattan’-- crisp, colorful and brisk. I set off for Bryant Park, a slice of peace behind the New York Public Library, and walking from 59th I headed down 6th Avenue. A vendor beguiled me to buy a purse and then I picked up a banana at the next. This was more like it, I could finally relax, breathe even. As I stepped into a crosswalk with several other New Yorkers I heard a large resounding crack and looked up. Way up above us was what looked like be a giant piece of cardboard wafting down. I barely had time to think about why a large piece of cardboard would float down from the top of a huge skyscraper when a voice shouted in my head, “Run!” Still looking up I realized it wasn’t cardboard but a city-block-sized piece of glass falling from the building to our right and it was huge enough to crush all of us.
