A woman who once had debts in the tens of thousands of pounds has turned her life around.
Jeanette Coulson, from Stanley, County Durham, once had debts totalling £35,000 and had to live on just £30 a week.
But she is now out of the red and well and truly back in the black after enjoying a successful start to her job as an Avon lady, having made £1 million turnover in just three years.
A former complaints manager for npower, Jeanette only became a part-time sales leader in 2008 having suffered from low confidence and the death of her mother to cancer not long before.
“At that time, I was very low in confidence,” she told Metro.
“I suffered from anxiety and depression. For me to do that, to take on the Avon job, was a big step.
“I only had £30 to my name to buy food. My friends and family said to me ‘‘your mum always bought Avon why not try selling it’ and I thought ‘‘why not’’. I got into debt because he (her ex partner) lived the high life, buying new clothes and cars, taking out loans and credit cards.”
But in one 12-week campaign she made £22,000, which saw Avon provide Jeanette with a car so she could drive to Berlin and Dublin on business trips.
Turnover will soon hit £1.5million.
“I have paid off the £35,000 debt of store, credit cards and loans,” she said.
Jeanette is now planning a £30,000 wedding to her fiance Kevin, who is also going to join the company having witnessed her success.
Her target is to be a millionaire by 35.
