I just picked up my copies an hour ago (incase I lose 1 – or 2 of them).  I think my customers will love seeing how something so small was able to grow from someone so young!

And to add a little bit of sweetness, I will be sending my top 3 (personally sponsored) in sales for September their very own copy.  Plus, anyone who decides to join Origami Owl with me from now until the end of October will be receiving one from me as well (while supplies last)!

Origami Owl Touches a Family Dealing with Childhood Cancer, Mother/Daughter Finds Success

by

I found this article online about a sister owl and it talks about how her family was touched by Origami Owl in more ways than one. It goes on to talk about the amazing benefits of being part of Origami Owl – from being remembered while she was in the hospital with her son fighting childhood cancer, to having the ability to work and grow alongside her daughter while acquiring important life skills, to enjoying an all-expense paid trip to Cabo. I loved how Tracy said “It’s been one huge big beautiful disaster” referring to all they have through. Red the full article below:

Tracy Kopp and Daughter with Origami Owl

Tracy Kopp’s hand closed around the locket hanging from her neck as she remembered spending a week in the hospital with her 5-year-old son Mitchel as he fought cancer.

That locket was a gift from the direct-sales company she works for, Origami Owl. She came home to find it, along with a handwritten note.

Inside the locket was a plate that read “Survivor” and charms related to her son — his initial, his birthstone, an angel wing, a “forever family” charm, an Origami Owl and a pediatric cancer ribbon.

The gift reminded her of why she joined the company in the first place.Tracy left her job as an executive assistant onMichigan Avenue when Mitchel was diagnosed — mere weeks before she gave birth to her youngest child, Taylor. She had been working full-time, commuting an hour and a half each way from Manteno and earning about $40,000 with benefits.

But when she discovered Origami Owl — founded in 2010 by a 14-year-old girl — the company’s support of childhood cancer instantly resonated with her.

She joined a network of more than 60,000 sales reps nationwide as an independent designer, coordinating parties called“jewelry bars” to sell Origami Owl’s personalized mix-and-match jewelry.

Party guests pick out a locket and select tiny, hand-painted charms to fill it up. Lockets can be interchanged between necklace or bracelet chains, and charms can be switched between lockets.

Tracy earns about 40 percent commission on each party, making between $25,000-30,000 annually. Not shabby, considering it’s part-time and she has flexibility.

“This has changed our lives,” Tracy said. “I’m able to set my own hours and paycheck and be home with the kids.”

She’s even able to bring her oldest daughter to work — as a partner.

At 12 years old, Angelina recently joined Tracy as an “Owlet.” That means that she has her own account set up and earns commission on whatever she sells.

“Who doesn’t love jewelry?” Angelina asked.

And it’s a lot more fun than working at a fast-food joint, one of Tracy’s first jobs.

“This is setting her up with tools that aren’t available anywhere else,” Tracy said, referring to the group health insurance and discounted college classes Origami Owl offers to the adults and teens they employ.

Plus, the preteen is practicing good time and money management, and learning people skills.

For Tracy, selling jewelry is a way to build relationships. That’s how she’s been able to move through the ranks to Senior Team Leader, supervising 70 saleswomen nationally.

Last year, she won an all-expense paid trip to Cabo San Lucas by selling $15,000 in merchandise in four months.

As of May, 10-year-old Mitchel has been chemo-free for one year, and though they wish the road could have been easier, both Tracy and Angelina are happy to have arrived where they are today.

“It’s been one huge big beautiful disaster,” Tracy said.
