First Time and Fabulous

Today's post spotlights two of our first-time incentive trip earners, Directors Roz Bianchi and her Upline, Director Amy Raftery. Here's their take on earning their first-ever trip (but with many more to come!)

AMY RAFTERY:

My husband and I just returned from the most wonderful trip with several of my CTMH coworkers and their guests. We sailed the southern Caribbean on the beautiful Celebrity Summit for 7 days of sun and fun, and made memories we will treasure for a lifetime.

What makes the trip even more special for us is when we were married nine years ago, we had to cancel our honeymoon at the last minute because my husband, an active duty US Marine, got orders to deploy. With the support of my family and other CTMH team members, I was able to earn this trip for us and last week we had our honeymoon!

I am sure that there was a lot of work involved by the CTMH executive team and their staff, so a huge thank you goes out to them for making the trip so very special!  And to Jeanette, a very special thank you for creating such a wonderful family of people who just happen to be passionate about stamping and scrapbooking and for creating the most wonderful company and products with which we can use them to preserve our memories!

ROZ BIANCHI:

My favorite part of trip was connecting with old friends and making new ones—there's nothing like it! I enjoyed the way CTMH spoiled me every evening and included my spouse in the gifts too (cruisers received special gifts every night in their cabin, from his-and-hers CTMH flip flops, to a great damask tote and jewelry roll, to a stunning beaded watch and more!).  It was a big eye opener for Greg to realize how hard I really worked to earn the trip, and now he is inspired to help me earn Costa Rica.

It was great to have personal one-on-one time with all the corporate staff, in such a relaxed and beautiful environment: I walked on the beach with Monica, talked with Brian, visited with Kristine, and then shared dinner with Sheena and Tiffany. I really was relaxed and had a fun time.

I think I was really excited at opening reception to stand next to my upline Amy Raftery and all of the other first time cruisers—there were so many of us; that is very exciting!
