Joe and Carol Garvey, National Vice Presidents
When we first began our AmeriPlan® Business, Carol was on the midnight shift doing medical transcription. I was in insurance and financial services. In the past, we each had traditional businesses that were either completely unsuccessful and put us in debt or were only marginally successful. We discovered those businesses ran us instead of us running them. They also ran our credit into the ground.
I always knew there had to be a better way than what we were doing. We had each worked the "40 year plan" about half-way through and had nothing to show for it. I was looking for a business that was REAL. When I met with Mark Jarvis about AmeriPlan®, he painted the picture of $100,000 per year in residual income in 2-4 years. I captured that vision and figured Carol and I still had 2-4 years of hard work left in us. It sure sounded better than 20-40 more years of the rat race.
We started working AmeriPlan® part-time. In our second year, on a part-time basis, we reached $60,000 per year in residual income. At that point, we both quit our jobs and went full-time with our AmeriPlan® business. In the next 12 months, we had an increase of $90,000 in our residual income which put us at $150,000 a year in residual income in our 3rd year, exceeding Mark's promise that we'd be earning $100,000 per year in residual income. We are now National Vice Presidents with AmeriPlan® earning over $270,000 per year in recurring, repeat, residual income before we get out of bed in the morning. It has been life changing. Our "job" is to give our Team a chance to win...a chance to have their own financial freedom and the lifestyle of their dreams. That is our mission; that is our vision, and we're seeing it happen.

Chuck and Tana Nicholson, National Sales Directors
$150,000 Founders Ring Signature Club
We were struggling financially when our former business fell on hard times. That's when we found AmeriPlan® through a friend. We began our AmeriPlan® business, working together from home. We lived in a tiny town in the Cascade Mountains of Oregon...population: 6,000. We had no providers within an hour or more drive of our home. We didn't own a computer, let alone know how to plug one in. We didn't let any of that stop us. We knew how big the niche was for this program and what a great program it was.
Even though the friend that introduced us to AmeriPlan® quit the business, we continued and went to our first AmeriPlan® Convention after only five months in the business with only $40 to our name. We absorbed everything we saw and everything we heard. We saw regular, ordinary people, who had followed the AmeriPlan® System, earning incredible incomes. We heard the training and were inspired. We made a permanent decision right then that nothing would stop us building this business. We wanted the lifestyles those people had, the time freedom they had and the security they had. At that event, we got to spend precious time with our upline Joe and Carol Garvey. They believed in us. Joe and Carol have now become our life-long friends, mentors and coaches. We still reminisce with them about that first convention together. You see, it made ALL the difference. We came home from that event and began to put into ACTION everything we had learned. We spoke to Joe and Carol several times a week for guidance or to report what we had accomplished that day and that week. We wanted to be held accountable to the commitment and decision we had made.
Just 4-1/2 months later, we looked up and we were National Sales Directors.
After only 3-1/2 years, we were earning over $150,000/year in residual income, which afforded us new luxury cars and a new dream home. We now travel...in luxury, too... and have seen places in this world that are so breathtaking they're hard to describe. The fantastic part of it is...when we get home we've gotten paid while we were vacationing! Now that's the security of residual income. We are able to spend more time with our six children and our grandchildren as well as quality time with our parents. Now our children are starting their own AmeriPlan® businesses, so they won't have to work 50 years at a job. They'll be retired by the time they're 30. That's a Legacy! Thanks AmeriPlan®....you've broken the chains of the "paycheck to paycheck life", not only for us but for our children and grandchildren. AmeriPlan® has delivered on the promise...completely! We are truly blessed.

Pabs Raghava, National Sales Director
Helping Others to Achieve Their Dreams! I am a stay at home mom with 4 kids. I wanted a business I could do from home that was viable. My husband is an engineer by profession and my AmeriPlan® business grew to the point where he was able to leave the corporate world where he had to travel all the time. Now he stays home with me and the kids and pursues his own personal dreams. We are now a family with lifestyle freedom. I have several people who joined my team part time with various different backgrounds and now are doing Ameriplan® full time. I am committed to working with them to take their Ameriplan® Business to the top together. The Rising cost of Healthcare is the topic of the country, and we are with the right company with the right service that people need and can afford and that is what creates MILLIONAIRES!
I want YOU to get your share.

Dr. Bob and Carol Waterstone, National Sales Directors
We are Dr. Bob and Carol Waterstone. I was a doctor with my own practice and my wife, Carol, was my office manager as well as being very involved in charitable work. My wife found a brochure for AmeriPlan® in a restaurant, the day after I paid $1000.00 for a root canal (and I had Blue Cross Blue Shield!!) I saw that I would have saved $300-$700 if I had gone to a network Dentist on the plan, rather than the stranger my dentist had sent me to. So we became an IBO (Independent Business Owner with AmeriPlan®) and went to work with a system that put in our pockets $100,000 of income in our first 15 months. AmeriPlan® retired us in two years of part time work, with more retirement income than working 20 years as a physician!
AmeriPlan® gave us the time freedom and extra income to send our kids to any school in the country. We have the ability to now travel to places we want, with people we like, and stay as long as we like!
Thank you AmeriPlan®.

Lowell and Wendy Farmer, National Sales Directors
$100,000 Founders Ring Club
Life was good for Wendy and I fifteen years ago. We had just purchased a lovely home
on the lake one year earlier. After ten years with an International company as a Zone
Sales Manager, I was earning $150,000/yr. with all the perks of a large company. Then
suddenly when I was fifty-two, the company announced that they were going out of business.
Wendy went to work as a Bridal consultant and I started searching for a job. We also tried
several different MLM companies part-time. As our income decreased, we had to start using
some of our savings, then our 401K. At one time I had three part-time jobs and Wendy was
working long hours as a Bridal consultant to keep our house. Then after struggling for ten
years and using up all of our 401K, we realized that we had to sell the house. I saw an
ad in the paper and called it after much prayer. It was AmeriPlan®. I wasn't interested,
but decided to check into it a bit further. I took the leap! Wendy kept working. Now,
just a little over two years later. Wendy and I have a lifestyle that includes both
financial freedom and time freedom. We are headed for a $100,000 this year. We have
re-established our savings, have a new 401K and just bought a new boat! We still have
the house! Thank you AmeriPlan® and thank you God for helping us find it!

Suzanne Docimo, National Sales Director
I start each day with a thank you to God for AmeriPlan®. This business has been such a blessing to me with the freedom
to work in my home when I choose. The concept of looking for people I can help to save money with our benefits and help
people to make money with our business is the answer I was looking for. With a backround in marketing, I was frustrated
with corp America and the lack of ethics within. AmeriPlan® has become more than I ever imagined with the lifelong
relationships formed nationwide, and true residual income. It has been the most rewarding financially, spirtually
and socially of anything I have ever done. I am already a member of the $25,000 Presidents Club (residual income) and will soon be a member of the $50,000 Presidents Club.
Thank you AmeriPlan® for the vehicle to our dreams!

Michelle Fuchigami, National Sales Director
As a single mom, I used to struggle working as a buyer in the corporate world ~
stress, long hours, travel, boss, daily commuting....and trying to be a full-time mom to my daughter.
There just were not enough hours in the day to do both. I found myself making good money but never happy.
I made the decision to take a big leap of faith, quit my job, and see where God would lead me.
God led me to the Nicholsons and the Garveys (both couples are the best leaders!) and
I am so thankful for my new life!!! Today, I am a National Sales Director, work from home, make my own schedule,
am my own boss, and most importantly ~ get to spend more time with my daughter and be the full-time mom she needs.
My daughter is my passion to achieve financial freedom and I am on my way!!!

Joe and Sharon Clarke, National Sales Directors
Sharon and I had both retired on January 1st, 2000. We thought that we would slowly fade into the sunset
as we enjoyed our retirement. How wrong we were! Retirement isn't always how one would imagine it to be
when you're accustomed to being on a job, working day after day, month after month and year after year.
After 19 months of doing the "retirement thing", Sharon and I were ready to get back into the game of life
and living! AmeriPlan® provided the answer. The day we began our AmeriPlan® Business is a day that we will
always be grateful for the rest of our lives! We started telling our family, friends and even strangers
about the AmeriPlan® story. We were looking for potential Members and Business Partners. It was amazing
how our business started growing and growing. AmeriPlan® matched up to their wants and needs for affordable
healthcare. They saw as we did that AmeriPlan® was a true value for everyone. We see ourselves as part of
the United States of AmeriPlan®. Sharon and I are National Sales Directors and in 2003, 2004, and 2005
we were proud AmeriPlan® Council of Eagles (ACE) Award Winners! We've won that ACE Award again in 2006
because we're still so excited we feel we've just started our business. We're proud to say, "We help
deliver on the AmeriPlan® promise!"

Dr. Eugene Krank, National Sales Director
My name is Dr. Eugene Krank. I was practicing Podiatric Medicine and Surgery when my patient, Ricky Flowers, told me about AmeriPlan®. Owning my practice I understood business, but I didn't have a sales background. The need for AmeriPlan® benefits was obvious, and I immediately committed to helping people by sharing the knowledge of this program. I became a student of AmeriPlan® and transferred that confidence and knowledge to anyone wanting to change the lives of others. AmeriPlan® helps in so many ways. The residual income I have earned with AmeriPlan® has provided me the security to expand into other business ventures which have enabled me to retire from my medical practice. Time freedom is priceless. My message to other professionals: you must be willing to trade ego for equity...I think you know what I mean.

Sherry and Roy Gilbreath, National Sales Directors
My name is Sherry Gilbreath. After spending 20 years as a chemist in research and development, I left the corporate world and began a chemical
recruiting business working from home. During that time a friend shared with me the AmeriPlan® opportunity. I already understood the benefits of
working from home; but had never experienced the power of residual income. With the support and encouragement of my upline, my team and my husband Roy,
we have promoted to National Sales Directors. Roy is a retired Navy officer and recently sold his ownership in a community golf course and left his
General Manager position there to join me full time in our AmeriPlan® business. We have been blessed with an awesome team all across the United States
and look forward to life long career with AmeriPlan USA®.

Lorraine Anderson, National Sales Director
I have always liked the idea of recurring money (residual income). Other companies promise this
but they never deliver. I always spent more than I made and I always got stuck having to buy product
every month to get paid! I went to see AmeriPlan USA® after swearing I would never get involved with
another company like this. What I found is that AmeriPlan USA® is totally different. They have a
service that actually saves people money. I didn't have to pretend that I was a doctor or lawyer
to sell it and they pay me daily for my endeavors. I made over $3,000 the first month part time,
and the money keeps getting better. In fact, I made it to the top pin level in the company
in 13 months. My husband and I do the business together on a part time basis and we have cut
our home interior business way back as we are growing our AmeriPlan USA® business. We are so
excited as we are going to have a great retirement because of AmeriPlan USA®. It is there for
anyone who joins our company and follows a proven system. See you at the top.

Carolyn Miller, National Sales Director
I started as an IBO in February of 2004 part-time. I was a waitress at a
24 hour restaurant. Because I worked with the public and knew a lot of
customers, I made RSD in 21 days. That same year in November I made SRSD.
An RSD that I had recruited went SRSD before me so that motivated me greatly.
I set my goal, and I stepped up the momentum and made SRSD. Setting my goal was key. Personally, I do well when I challenge myself.
In March of this year I got to SESD by setting my goals and working with my business partners (IBOs on my team). When you are determined, you can make it happen. It was a Team-Thing. At this point I was really pumped up with all the momentum I had and was able to move on to the greatest and the most rewarding pin Level, National Sales Director.
This ride to National Sales Director was hard work. Focusing on what needs to be done and making a business plan worked for me. I worked my business plan daily and achieved my goal: National. I want to thank my upline and my husband who supported me throughout. It's about working together as a team, and it helps when that team is like family to you.

Jerome Chester, National Sales Director
Back in the late 70's, I was involved in an MLM--Network Marketing business. That is where I learned about freedom for the first time -- financial freedom and being free from a job!
When introduced to AmeriPlan®, I got involved first on a part-time basis. I earned approximately $2,000 on my way to Regional Sales Director. Shortly after, I reached Senior Regional Sales Director. Then, Executive Sales Director and Senior Executive Sales Director became a double promotion! That truly excited me and my Team! I fired my boss in February 2002 and haven't had a boss since.
I'll never forget the day I received a special call from AmeriPlan® Corporate. Divisional Sales Manager, Linda Rowden, and CEO Dennis Bloom called to personally congratulate me on becoming National Sales Director ! AmeriPlan® has given me choices: What, When, Where, How and most important of all, Why. I live each day of my life. I thank God for his Grace and Mercy.
Learn to Love your Team, show them Love and Compassion, Pass It On, Watch Them Grow. Also let them know you believe in them and their success. Let them know they can fulfill their Dreams also.

Ozell Hazzle, National Sales Director
My background is in education; I was Activities Coordinator at Mt. Hood Community College until I retired in 2001 (Google Ozell Hazzle Mt. Hood Community College).
About 20 years ago I was introduced to network-marketing, I understood the concept and the business structure. But the companies and people I worked with over the years showed a lack of ethics. Because of that, I almost passed on AmeriPlan®. But I decided to listen to Chuck Nicholson who introduced me to this great Company. Chuck's words to me were, "OZELL, IF YOU TRUST ME, I WILL BE THERE WHEN YOU NEED ME". I decided to trust him. That was almost 6 years ago. Thank you Chuck and Tana; you have my gratitude!
I owe my success with AmeriPlan® to Chuck and Tana, Our Team and the Company. AmeriPlan® delivers on the promise and with the great Team support we get and give, anyone who wants to WORK can build a great residual income. We are truly a family unit.
If you are serious about firing your boss, working from home, working part-time to earn full-time residual income...If you are committed to true lifestyle change, we are the one Company and Team you can count on.
Just imagine working in a 2-10 Trillion-Dollar industry (Consumer Driven Healthcare) with a 14 year old company that most people have not yet heard about. Imagine having a product that 7 out of 10 people need, want and can afford, a product that everyone qualifies for! And you don't have to be licensed to market the product! ( As they say in Texas, "That's a Clue!" )
Yes, I'm a National Sales Director - and - Yes I'm making more money than a job will pay me. But, best of all - I'm building relationships that will last a lifetime. I'm blessed to be with a Team of people who truly love each other. Give us 90 Days of your serious effort, plug into our proven success system, and you will understand how AmeriPlan® is Delivering On The Promise®.
Every day I give thanks for waking up to this incredible opportunity and the people who make up our Great Team - from Mississippi - to - Washington - to - Oregon - and Beyond - I love you all.
Welcome to our TEAM !

Shannon Ukrop, National Sales Director
I had just gotten a severence package from the company I had been with for five years. I sold yellow pages. I had briefly started real estate investing, but needed some
supplemental income. I started looking in the paper for something part-time that I could work from home and that is where I found AmeriPlan®. I joined in February 2004
and my life has changed forever! My first IBO was my Mom and she is already a member of the $50,000 Presidents Club and a Senior Executive Sales Director (SESD). My
daughter is almost 13 and she is such a great help. She loves AmeriPlan® just as much as my Mom and me. I am a National Sales Director and a member of the $50,000
President's Club as well. This is just an amazing opportunity! There is nothing like working from home, having fun, and helping people save and make money and watching your
team grow. You can help them make their own dreams come true while you are building lifetime residual income. If you work AmeriPlan® and make a 2-4 year commitment, AmeriPlan®
will work for you!!

Shalisha Moreno, National Sales Director
My name is Shalisha Moreno, and I am a stay at home mom of 2 beautiful children. My background is healthcare and it is what I have always loved,
working with people and helping people. When my son was born , I decided to look for something I could do from home to earn an income. I tried a lot
of different ways to make money from home and was never successful at any of them. I was looking for something to bring me an income so that my husband
wouldn't have to work two jobs, 14 hours a day, to provide for us. When I found AmeriPlan®, I knew God had placed before me a gigantic opportunity,
and I had a choice to take that opportunity or not. I did and made it to my first level of management in my first 21 days and went on to make it to
the top level of management with the company. My husband no longer works two jobs. We now have more family time and freedom. I have met and made
so many wonderful relationships along the way. I am lovin this journey! Thank you AmeriPlan®!

Brian and Tammy Raynes, National Sales Directors
I thought I had a pretty good life a few years back. After all, I was working for a company for 22 years as a sales manager in "Corporate America". I thought I was set for life until one Friday I was asked to come to the Managers office. I was told I was making too much money and that the company was downsizing. My whole world came crashing down; I didn't know what I was going to do. I look back at that now and am glad it happened...but I was not glad at the time.
After that, I tried so many things. I tried to sell cars (not for me). I did whatever I thought I could do. I even started my own business...which had been a dream of mine. It was a nightmare and, then I woke up. I found that I couldn't keep up; I had to file bankruptcy. I lost my business and my spirit. I thought there was no hope, and I was ready to 'check out'. I lost hope in everything. One rainy day, I was very depressed and feeling really down. I went to the post office to get my mail (more bills), and on my way out, I found a card that read....."Make $2000 to $5000 a month in residual income". It was bright green and I thought to myself, yeah right, another scam. I've seen them all, but I kept the card anyway, stuck it on the console of my car and went on. Over the next couple of weeks, I kept asking GOD to send me a sign of something. Hmmmm, where is my sign? The week before Thanksgiving, I'm sitting in my car and the sun shone down on that card stuck in the console of my car. I picked it up and called the number on the card. I received a DVD in the mail from the man I had talked to, but I still wasn't sure; I was so depressed. But on Thanksgiving Day I watched the DVD and called the man back, now my good friend Dave Huddleston. I got my AmeriPlan® business started that day with Dave. I had HOPE again! And now I have friends whom I never would have met if not for AmeriPlan®. They are such a blessing to me. This journey is so awesome. I fast-tracked to Regional Sales Director (RSD) in 28 days. Then the T.E.A.M. (Together Everyone Achives More) came together and we're working shoulder to shoulder to help each other reach our dreams. My "Team Pay IT Forward" is within The Legacy Team, and because of them all, I made National Sales Director in one year and one day from that fateful Thanksgiving Day. Thanks to Ann, Cliff and Robert for your hard work and spirit. I love you all. Thanks to Joe and Carol, my true mentors. Thanks to Chuck and Tana for being there for me and believing in me. And, Ozell my brother from a different mother. My wife Tammy and I are forever grateful to Dave and Mari Huddleston for putting that card at the Post Office and for giving me Hope again! The journey happily continues. I want to help others get to where they want to be. You can get anything in life that you want if you just help enough people get what they want. Always Pay It Forward and see what Blessings you get! Thank God for Residual Income and Friends! Thank God for AmeriPlan®.

John Myers, National Sales Director
I was looking to make a change. I had been working for a company that was stressing me out
and I was becoming short-tempered, not my natural disposition. I knew I had to walk away.
I answered an ad in the Sunday paper and set an appointment. I just added that appointment
to the end of an already full day of appointments. That last appointment was with Joe &
Carol Garvey. I met them at an AmeriPlan® Barrel of Cash™ event. As I watched the
DVD presentation at that event, I said to myself, "I can do this, I will do this."
Not just try to do it! I had tried to do other things in the past, but this time, I told
myself, "I will do this." I began my AmeriPlan® business that evening. I attended the very
next regular meeting at the Regional Office as well. WOW.... I knew I was in the right place.
I told myself, "Even if I hadn't started the business, I would want to come to these meetings
because the people here are so positive and great!" After each meeting, I could not wait
to get back to the next one. I had found a real company in AmeriPlan®, real leaders in Joe &
Carol Garvey, and a meeting system full of others who believed in the company and in the people.
That, for me, Delivered on the Promise. I am a part of a Great Company with people I can
believe in and who believe in me. I was so proud to be nominated and selected to attend the
Leaders of Tomorrow Conference. And, I still can't wait to get back to the next meeting.

Eve and Dieguito Pritchett, National Sales Directors
I joined AmeriPlan® because I saw the opportunity to leave a legacy for my children. At the time I was a single parent raising two young children, going through a difficult divorce,
working two jobs and finishing my degree.
Like most people I was taught to work really hard, get all the degrees I can, that then I would never struggle and would be successful. I followed those rules and did just that but
still I struggled with not having enough time with my children. I was actually a member in AmeriPlan® for the dental benefits before I even knew of the opportunity. I saw the increasing
need for healthcare and how this plan of helping people can assist me with my dream to have financial freedom and more time with my children. I love helping people. I was introduced to the
AmeriPlan® opportunity after I'd had the benefits for about a year, but for reasons beyond my control it didn't work out, so I went back into Corporate America where I furthered my studies
to become a Nurse and received my Masters Degree. But, I was still thinking about AmeriPlan® and how much of a need there was, and still is, in America. I wanted a leader who was
successful and found out about Ricky Flowers, National Sales Director. He was a God-send, and I knew it was destiny when I visited my sister in New York and found Ricky's gold card.
(He doesn't live in New York.) So this is my second time around, and this time it's working out, less than 2 years later.
At the point when I found Ricky's gold card, I had finished my degree and was working many hours to support my family. I was determined to provide for my two children who are now 8 and
6 years old. But I came to realize that I only saw my children in the morning before they went to school and in the late night when I would wake my babies from a deep sleep at their
babysitter's house to bring them home. I made a pretty decent salary but never saw my kids. What a trade off! I was not happy with that lifestyle. I wanted and desired to be with my
family. My babysitter was basically their mom. So I took action…I called Ricky!
I told Ricky who I was, and we discussed his business plan and my belief that I have what it takes to do this business and that I would be a great asset to him. I knew I had a great
work ethic and people skills, but I knew that if I was going to get back into the business, I wanted to work directly with him. I had heard of and had seen his remarkable track record
and the success of the people in his organization. I wanted to duplicate that and understood with the right leadership, I would be successful. Within the first several months, I made
Regional Sales Director (RSD), transitioned to Sr. RSD and then to Executive Sales Director (ESD).
I remarried this year and I'm doing well in AmeriPlan®. My husband Dieguito and I, together, have made it to Sr. ESD. We're looking forward to becoming National Sales Directors (NSD)
and continuing to build our Dream Team. Dieguito is my soul-mate and has allowed me to work full-time in AmeriPlan®. He has 20 years of expertise in multilevel marketing and has become
my partner and my mentor in our AmeriPlan® dream.
God has truly answered my prayers. Dieguito and I, along with Ricky Flowers, NSD, are in one accord to reach the top. We thank God for our team and for this opportunity that is changing
our lives and many others. Our obligation is to share this…We would be doing people a disservice if we kept it all to ourselves! We'll pray to see you at the top!

Wayne and Jean Dobson, National Sales Directors
Hi! This is Wayne & Jean Dobson from Willingboro NJ. My background is working with a
Medical-Surgical Distribution Center, which decided to relocate, and I needed a job
that would help support my family and the lifestyle that we were living. A friend of
ours introduced us to AmeriPlan USA® and we saw a great opportunity in a field where
there was a great demand. Let me tell you, we are so happy with this business and our
checks are growing each month. "WOW"! One thing I can say is, as long as we stay
committed to the AmeriPlan® system we will have $50,000 to $100,000 in Lifetime Residual
Income in 2 to 4 years. We thank God for this Blessing.

Sandra Ukrop, Senior Executive Sales Director
I had been unemployed for almost a year when I joined AmeriPlan®. I thought I was set for life with my JOB when suddenly our office closed. I went with my daughter,
Shannon Ukrop, to a one-on-one business briefing and I saw the opportunity with AmeriPlan®. I made RSD in 6 weeks, then struggled with the business for the next four
months. After going to my first convention I knew this company was for real. I decided shortly after that to get busy and the rest is history. I am Senior Executive
Sales Director and a member of the $50,000 President's Club. I am soon to be National Sales Director and I'm working on $75,000 residual income. My belief in the
benefits and the company has brought a whole new perspective to my life. The friends that I've met and bonded with is something that I will be able to carry with me
forever. My daughter, Shannon, and I now get to travel together to all the company events, I am my own boss and now know that the sky is the limit. My goal with
AmeriPlan® is to dream big enough so that what seems to be impossible becomes a reality and to help others achieve their goals as well.

Jim Best, Senior Executive Sales Director
The lion's share of my job background has been in the retail management
arena, having spent approximately 20 years there. The many hours away
from my family at work and traveling for the companies that I worked for left me
clamoring for time with my family. I would be gone for a week at a time, come
home and the kids would look different (they grow so fast). It was then that I
decided that I had to make a change. I wanted time freedom!
Knowing that I had worked my way from being a sales person on the floor
through a Regional position provided me with the confidence I needed to
start my own business. The first two businesses I started failed. I had
used up my savings, a good portion of my 401K money and my confidence.
Earlier I had found a business card with information about a dental program.
I had left it on my desk for several months and forgot about it. I went into the
insurance field and was cleaning my desk one day when I found that card again.
I made the call to Joe Clarke, joined AmeriPlan® and in just over a year had become
a Senior Executive Sales Director. I now have the satisfaction of building
my own business that has on-going income that will provide for me and my family
in the years to come and even when we take vacations. I work from home with
AmeriPlan® and so I see my kids a lot ! This year I will be moving on to National Sales
Director and $100K in residual income. Unlike other companies I've worked with,
I have never had an AmeriPlan® check come late, not even one hour!

Dave and Mari Huddleston, Executive Sales Directors
I retired from The Boeing Company 3 and 1/2 years ago, and I receive full Medical coverage,
but I lost my Dental coverage. I had been looking for a Dental program when a friend from
Portland asked my wife, Mari, and I if we would be interested in looking at a way to save
money on Dental. We agreed and that friend brought Ozell Hazzle to Seattle on a Friday evening.
After the presentation, I had another friend there who said to me that if I signed-up as an IBO,
she would sign-up under me. Even though I wasn't looking for a business at the time, this
business opportunity made sense. I began working and, although, I signed up members and recruited
IBOs, I felt as if I was just plodding along. I see now that "you just never know what might
be just around the corner" because one of my 'sizzle' cards found its way into the hands of my
first Super Star, Brian Raynes. Brian called me back on Thanksgiving Day after looking at the DVD.
He signed up as an IBO and today Brian is himself an Executive Sales Director and well on his way
to National Sales Director. This has stimulated us and others in our business in such a positive
way! All we can say is "Thanks AmeriPlan®" and Never Give Up because "you just never know
who might be just around the corner".

Mariah and Dennis Larson, Executive Sales Directors
We are Mariah and Dennis Larson, Executive Sales Directors in AmeriPlan®.
There are so many wonderful things I could say about AmeriPlan® but will
limit it to what I feel most important to me. I was working two jobs and
my AmeriPlan® business part-time when I became very ill last year and had to take
9 months off work. Funny thing, the only one I received a paycheck from month
after month was my AmeriPlan® business. It is residual income so when I became
ill I was still being paid on work I did the year prior. Now, all my efforts go
to building my AmeriPlan® business. ThankYou AmeriPlan®.

Tim Pishdad and Cynthia Watkins, Executive Sales Directors
We are Tim Pishdad and Cynthia Watkins of Richmond, Virginia. Both of us have a background in the US Army. Because of AmeriPlan®, we now have the time freedom we've only dreamed about before. Here's our story. Tim retired from the Army in 1995, and I will retire this summer, 2006. Tim was introduced to AmeriPlan® while at the Dry Cleaners waiting to pick up the outfit he'd wear when asking his “girlfriend” (me) to marry him. A gentleman in the Cleaners (NSD Ricky Flowers) saw something in Tim and decided to give him a card. Tim had an interest in owning his own business, but never wanted to be tied to a “brick and mortar” business like his father was. Tim's father owned and operated a greenhouse (rather, the greenhouse “owned” his father). Tim set Ricky's card down for awhile and didn't pick it up again until we were married. He went to a business briefing and liked what he saw: a way to help people with something they could really use, plus break away from the 9-to-5 rat race. He brought it home and discussed it with me and I didn't want to have anything to do with it. I encouraged him, though, to go ahead and start the business, but I fully intended to continue focusing on my military career.
Shortly after Tim started his AmeriPlan® business, I was deployed to Korea for a one-year tour. Before I was deployed, Tim convinced me to attend the Fall Leadership Conference in Orlando. I didn't really want to go but decided to go hang out at the pool while he attended the training sessions. While there, I had the opportunity to meet quite a few successful AmeriPlanners who were just ordinary people with a dream to change their lives. Up until that point, I'd seen the checks Tim was receiving and saw how the AmeriPlan® benefits made a difference in people's lives, but I still wasn't convinced that I should work with Tim to really make AmeriPlan® work for us. That conference brought about a change in me. I realized, "If these people could be successful, Tim and I could be, too."
Once I returned from Korea, Tim and I decided that we would truly work the business with the goal of bringing, first Tim, and then me home from our fulltime jobs. Tim left Corporate America in the summer of 2005. Tim was selected to attend the all-expense-paid 2006 Leaders of Tomorrow Conference in January 2006. This summer, I will end 20 years of honorable service to this great country of ours and will transition into working fulltime with Tim in our AmeriPlan® business. Because of AmeriPlan®, we have the freedom and flexibility to take vacations, participate in family events, and do things with our kids like we've always wanted. Life is a big business trip!! We have a goal of working with more small to medium sized businesses. No one should have to go without affordable health benefits. We've taken up the Crusade to spread the word!

Amanda Kime, Executive Sales Director
Since AmeriPlan® I have been able to stay at home with my children and make a substantial amount of money,
not to mention saving over $3,000 in the last 9 months on my dental work. AmeriPlan® has allowed for us
to have time freedom to do more with the family and not have to worry about where our next paycheck is
coming from. Thanks AmeriPlan®!

Debbie Pain, Executive Sales Director
When I started AmeriPlan® I had just gotten a divorce and had no idea how I was going to
take care of my two children or find a job after not working for ten years. Then I saw a
card about making money from the comfort of your own home. I called the number and spoke
with Joe Clarke. I met with him about the business opportunity. I had no benefits for
myself, and this looked like a good opportunity to make money, and get the benefits I
need. It was the best decision I have made. This was the opportunity to help people save
money and make money. I have now bought my own home by myself, and I would not have been
able to achieve this without AmeriPlan®. My children will be able to carry on my business.
I also love the relationships I have built with people through my AmeriPlan® business.

Donna Brown, Executive Sales Director
I am an Accountant by profession, and work for a major hospital system. In the near
future, I am looking to retire and stay home with my little girl. My residual income with
AmeriPlan® is growing every month. I will be at the top pin level with the company by the
end of this year. My AmeriPlan® business is making my dream come true, sooner than
later.

Ali Williams, Executive Sales Director
My name is Ali Williams. I'm originally from Harlem, New York but now reside in Atlanta, GA. My background is street vending/sales,
writer, & entrepreneur. I'm married with five beautiful children that I love dearly. One of my goals is to create financial freedom for me and my family.
On my quest to do so, I found AmeriPlan®, or actually AmeriPlan® found me. I was introduced to AmeriPlan® by National Sales Director John Myers, who at the
time was a total stranger. I was shopping for some items for my other business when I was approached by John about this business. What he said made sense
to me,and I saw the value and the need for the services. I realized how marketable it was and 29 days after I got started I made Regional Sales Director
and $2,700 dollars. If I can do it, anybody can do it! Get the information you need, join us now, and GET EXCITED! I'll See You At The Top!!!!

Jeanne Boone, Senior Executive Sales Director
I thought I had the perfect job as an administrator with a university. I helped build and maintain one of the top five largest visual resource centers for one of the finest art schools in the nation. How many people get paid for what they love and enjoy doing? My field was art and photography. My home was a block from my office. I was able to take my daughter to and pick her up from school, and after school hours she was able to study at my office. She was never left alone. After 24 years of solid dedication and settling for what I thought was good pay and the perfect job, I received shocking news that because of the state of the budget crisis, my position was no longer needed. I was forced to take early retirement. Looking in retrospect, it was a blessing in disguise! I was introduced to AmeriPlan® not too long after losing my position. AmeriPlan® has allowed me to explore another professional venue, move beyond my comfort zone and partner with mentors and leaders in this company. I have met and made many new friends of like mind and values. The driving force for me with this business was NOT to start all over again working an 8-5 job for someone else, where I would hardly see my daughter, and build someone else's dream. I was presented with an incredible opportunity where I could now work for myself, help others, build my own dreams with a payment plan where the sky is the limit. I was afforded the time and freedom to leave a lasting legacy for my daughter. Over the last two years, I have taught my daughter how to cook and how to drive. We have taken many trips and outings together, eaten out on many special occasions, spent time with family. More importantly, we have been involved in the planting of a new church, a very special and unique privilege of being involved in God's work and experiencing miracles in our lives. I have not missed one of my daughter's basketball games, recitals, school functions, etc. My daughter will have lasting memories of our time together, memories she will carry with her for the rest of her life.....a lasting legacy no amount of money can buy. AmeriPlan® has allowed me freedom and time to spend with my daughter who will soon be heading off to college after several years of Christian homeschooling.

Susan Malicki, Executive Sales Director
My name is Susan and have been self employed for many years. My wonderful husband
Steve and I reside in Cameron Park, CA and have 4 beautiful adult children.
I have had a successful cleaning business for years but, as time go's by my body just
could not keep up with the work load required to make the income we needed, so I
started looking for a job. The idea of going to work for a company was appealing for the
benefits package however, every time I thought about punching a time clock, being
"locked up" 9-5, five days a week and needing "permission" to take time off work for
personal or vacation, etc, I started having panic attacks! Thank god, I found AmeriPlan®!

Cindy and Terry Chapman, Executive Sales Directors
My husband, Terry, and I travel for a living. Terry drives a chemical tanker during the week; I travel all over the southeast on
weekends doing portrait fund raisers with volunteer fire departments. For four years, I had been asking God to direct me to a home-based
business where I could work with like-minded individuals who share my work ethic and belief system. On an October day, I was leaving
my Tuesday morning Bible study and noticed a sign on the back of an SUV in the parking lot. The sign was advertising a home-based business.
I looked up the website and checked out the company for several hours. I sent Carol and Joe Garvey an email expressing my desire for more information.
The rest is history!! Terry and I joined AmeriPlan® in November and began really working the business in January. With the expert leadership of our
dear friends, Joe and Carol, we achieved our first pin level, RSD, in January, then SRSD in March and ESD in June, right before National Convention.
We are on our way to National Sales Director! We are so very grateful for the AmeriPlan® opportunity. Not only do we have awesome and much needed
services/products to market, but also we enjoy rich friendships and the joy of helping others succeed. Terry and I both look forward to being off
the road completely within the next two years. We have a big "WHY"....six wonderful grandsons. We always knew God had a great plan for our lives... we
had no idea it was AmeriPlan®....until now!!

Kathy and Bank Assani, Senior Regional Sales Directors
Little did I know that when I found an AmeriPlan® Dental brochure on display at my son's daycare, that it would be my ticket to becoming a stay-at-home mom, who would no longer need to put our son in daycare!
Although I was teaching school at the time and had benefits, I could not deny the value of AmeriPlan's® discounts and how it would save our family thousands of dollars. My first visit to the dentist that very week, saved us so much, I just had to tell people about it. Their response was always, " WOW"! Everyday I would tell my husband how people were responding and he said, "why don't you find out what it takes to do this business?" I am so glad we did, because now when we tell people of our savings, they not only say, "WOW;" we also get paid for it!!
I am grateful that I now get to stay at home full-time, build great friendships with the people that we're helping to save money, but also with those we're helping to make money and build a lifetime residual income with AmeriPlan®. I'm especially excited about the segment of our team that we affectionately call the M&MMs (MOMS MAKING MONEY) while staying at home! As a teacher, I know the need is great!
The future is bright with AmeriPlan®, for my husband and I get to dream and plan for the day when he'll get to join me full-time; working and enjoying the financial and lifestyle freedom that this company delivers for so many. We are so thankful for this unexpected blessing!! Catch the vision and come along with us to the top!

Susan Westfall, Senior Regional Sales Director
When I started AmeriPlan® I was a financial planner. It took awhile, but I finally realized that truly
residual income can be made with AmeriPlan®. I had discovered that the promise given me when I became a
financial planner about residual income wasn't going to happen in my lifetime. I looked at how I went to
my client's homes, showed them how to save $100 a month into a retirement account and what they would
have as an outcome, and I was paid $4 ! I did the math. Instead of struggling to get a client to put
away $100 and me get paid $4, I now work AmeriPlan® and provide a product that clients need and request
for $19.95 and get paid a residual income of $6 a month each and every month. It truly was a no-brainer!
Now I do AmeriPlan® full time and will be one of the 2000 National Sales Directors in AmeriPlan®, and I
will do it this year!

Patricia Wilder, Senior Regional Sales Director
I live in Morehead City, North Carolina. I have worked in Human Services for the past 13 years prior to deciding to follow my brother-in-law (who is married to my twin sister) into AmeriPlan®. My biggest goal for becoming successful in AmeriPlan® was money to pay for my oldest daughter's education. She had just agreed to attend a local State University when the bills started rolling in. She hadn't even been on the campus yet! I decided I needed to make more money and I needed to make it NOW!
My husband and I have blended a family with three kids, two of them teenagers. There is never a dull or quiet moment in our home. The kids are very active, working locally and participating in soccer and in the children's ministry at our church. I sing in the choir at Church and sometimes I'm invited to sing at other churches or functions. I LOVE to SING! My former coworkers at times complain (lovingly, I'm sure) that I sing too much. I know they are just jealous, so I pay them no mind. Sometimes you just gotta Praise the Lord!
I started out in this business because I saw in opportunity to make money. But, also, because I had worked at a Human Service agency and saw people that came in asking for help but who would fall between the cracks. I am a licensed Insurance agent. I see AmeriPlan® as an awesome opportunity to help those who otherwise would have to choose between paying a bill or getting the medical care they need and those who find themselves "uninsurable" due to an ongoing medical condition.
My Ameriplan® business is building a legacy income that will allow me to provide a college education for my youngest child and retire my husband early from a very hectic and hazardous career. I'm blessed to have found AmeriPlan®.

Kathy Havens, Senior Regional Sales Director
Hello, my name is Kathy Havens of Southern Oregon. I was a Construction Contractor recovering from a fractured pelvis after falling from a ladder when my sister Helen brought Ameriplan USA® to me. Being somewhat retentive (okay A LOT), I immediately checked out the company through the BBB, the State Attorney General and the Insurance Commissioner's office and found that AmeriPlan® was in GREAT standing with them ALL.
I then met with Suzanne Docimo (now NSD) and spoke to NSD Chuck Nicholson, I knew this was the business for me because of the genuine concern and enthusiasm they expressed for my future. I made close to $1,000 on my way to RSD, while still in my wheelchair. I love helping people see they do have choices and opportunities in life.
Plus, all Independent Business Owner (IBOs) with AmeriPlan® the Dental, Vision, Prescription and Chiropractic Plans are included at no extra cost and I love using it! I saved $74 on my glasses, my dentist office took 47% off my last dental bill and every time I go to the chiropractor I save $12.60 ( AND I get a 15 minute massage)...How Cool Is That! This program is not hard to share with people and anyone can do that! I believe in this Company and this program so much that I even became a Provider Relations Representative as well ! Blessings to you and yours.

Diane Van Handel, Senior Regional Sales Director
I am a full-time real estate agent from Vancouver, Washington. I decided to work part-time in AmeriPlan® because
of the residual income. Working in real estate, there are many long hours, and there is no residual income.
My goal is to have financial freedom and quit my J.O.B.

Antonette Haswell, Senior Regional Sales Director
I came to AmeriPlan USA® when I was at my wits end trying to find a legitimate business
that would work for me. I not only wanted it to appeal to me financially, but mentally
as well. I wanted to have fun but I also wanted to be challenged and definitely wanted
to provide something of value to the public...I found it here. Because of AmeriPlan®, in
just a few years, my daughter and family will never have to worry about their future
for the rest of their lives!

Bea Johnson, Senior Regional Sales Director
MY WHY - My name is Beatrice Johnson and I live in Petersburg, VA. When I first saw AmeriPlan®, I already had a successful business that was blessed where I had time and financial freedom. It allowed me to be a blessing to others. However, the business was a service and I realized we must provide a service to get reimbursed. Plus, we were depending on staff to provide good quality service. We had to be in compliance with local and state regulations for licensing. Therefore, I start looking for a Plan B. I didn't want to go back to a 9 to 5 because I enjoyed the time freedom that I had. I had worked on a 9 to 5 job for 21 years when I stepped out on Faith to go into business for myself. My first business was not God's plan and I was soon penniless. I knew I wanted to do something from home. I also knew I didn't want to do network marketing because I had done it before, didn't make any money but learned a lot-but it wasn't for me.
I had been looking for about 6 months when one of our employees showed us an AmeriPlan® brochure. She wanted her upline to talk to our employees about the benefits. When I saw a video, a light went off in my head and the word "Residual Income" stood out. I immediately signed up that night as an Independent Business Owner with AmeriPlan®. We also gave the benefits to our staff.
Let me tell you why "Residual Income" is so important. I have IBOs and Members who signed up with me within 3 days who are still using the benefits. Therefore, I am still getting paid monthly and did not have to resell to them. That's powerful.
My WHY in this business is the same WHY I have in my other business. I want to continue to have time and financial freedom whereas I can be a blessing to others without worrying about my own financial needs. This company has a product that a lot of people need and a business that anyone can do. Oh, did I mention another WHY? Paris is my favorite vacation place and my dream is to spend a month vacation there. I know with AmeriPlan®, my dream will come true. Thank you to our Co-Founders, Dennis and Daniel Bloom, for AmeriPlan®!

Jeanne Condon, Senior Regional Sales Director
I am Jeanne Condon of California. I am the happy mother to 8 wonderful children and the
devoted wife to Brian. I needed to help supplement my husband's income so I got a job
at Costco. I really wanted to make a difference in people's lives and so they put me
back in the bakery. But it is hard to have a relationship with a frozen bagel!!!!
I found a 'home business opportunity' flyer that Shalisha Moreno put out. We played phone tag for a couple of days, but when I listened to the live recruiting call with Mark Jarvis I was convinced that this is what I wanted to do! They painted a picture and put me in it!!!
After that live recruiting phone call, I went to the Regional Meeting in Sacramento (where Shalisha and I met in person). At that business briefing meeting, I heard the leaders in that market (Alan & Leanne Masters) speak, and well, that sealed the deal. I knew I wanted to be around these positive and upbeat people.
Now with AmeriPlan® I can REALLY make a difference in people's lives!! I am on my way and I am not turning back!!!!

Mike and Lorna Campbell, Senior Regional Sales Directors
Since joining AmeriPlan® we have already started to realize that this is where our dreams are going to be fulfilled. We have made a whole new group of friends and have
enjoyed what this has given to us.
Lorna and I met in the Philippines in 1979 and were married Feb. 14,1981. We've been married for 25 years and are going for 50 more. We are members of Emanuel Baptist,
and are very active in the community through Marriage Savers, The Gideons and Promise Keepers.
We love going the extra mile to help others. Our personal mission is to go around our local area and purchase used clothes to send to children in the Philippines. The
greatest blessing we have found is to be able to give back to the world we are in.
AmeriPlan® is the platform that is giving us that blessing and giving us new inspiration for the future. Our prayer is that we will be able to continue to help others
for a long time to come.

Sharon James, Senior Regional Sales Director
My name is Sharon and I am a self-employed hair stylist and care-giver for my 80 yr old
father. I found this company through my daughter, Shalisha Moreno, a stay at home
mom. I became a medical program member because I had no health coverage. I saw the
integrity of AmeriPlan® and the income Shalisha was building and realized that this is the
answer to my prayers. I became an independent business owner to build retirement
income and to have quality time with my 5 children and 15 grandchildren. As I get older,
I know I do not want to be a burden to my family, and with AmeriPlan® and our 2-4 yr plan
to retirement income, I will be able to leave my family a legacy.

Esther and Bruce Smith, Senior Regional Sales Directors
Hello, we are Bruce and Esther Smith. We were skeptical about working a business from home. We think you'll like what you see about our incredible company ...
we certainly did! We owned our own marketing/manufacturing business in Oregon for 22 years. When we sold it and 'retired' in January '05, not only did we
quickly become bored, but the income stream dried up pretty fast also. We both began looking for something extra to do. After being our own bosses for so
many years, we knew it had to be something that we were in control of ... i.e., a business we could work from home.
Long story short: We got scammed on one of those internet business "opportunities". Then one day we answered an ad that led us to AmeriPlan®. And frankly,
it was the best decision we've ever made. This business offers everything we want financially, but there's so much more than that.
We are part of one of the fastest-growing and most successful teams in the entire company. The leadership, training and ongoing support are second to none!
There is an entire arsenal of tools and procedures that make this such a simple business.
But make no mistake: do not confuse the word 'simple' with 'easy'. Absolutely nothing that is worthwhile is easy. You will dedicate your time and effort to
make this business successful for you. And you will have guidance and encouragement every step of the way. But you must work it, as you would work any outside
j-o-b, with discipline and persistence.
If you are the type of person who has a focus and a dream, this business can help you realize those dreams and goals. You literally have a team of business
partners on your path to success. We cannot say enough about the integrity and reputation of this company and its founders. If you have a dream, this is your vehicle.

Karen Antos, Senior Regional Sales Director
My name is Karen Antos and I live on Long Island, New York. I teach ballet 4 evenings a week. When I started my AmeriPlan® business,
I was teaching ballet 5 evenings a week. Because of this business, I've already been able to cut back one night a week and be home instead
of teaching ballet. AmeriPlan® delivered what other companies couldn't - a full-time income working from home. I've tried several different
home-based businesses that promise to deliver a fortune. Instead, I found that most don't work, require a lot of money to start, or involve
selling, carrying inventory, and spending countless hours on the phone. Luckily, when I found AmeriPlan® I knew immediately it was the best
home-based business opportunity I had seen. It is perfect for anyone looking for a business that provides a valuable service, not the selling
of a product, which in turn makes you feel good about what you are doing. Anyone comfortable dealing with people can do this. After working
two months, I acheived my first goal, that of Regional Sales Director and I know that is only the beginning of this upward journey to success!
I understand the vision of true residual income and know that AmeriPlan® will be "Delivering on the Promise" to me. My goal is to help others
"save money" or "make money", so that they may turn their lives around and make their own DREAMS come true by catching the AmeriPlan® vision!

Michelle Hawthorne, Regional Sales Director
My name is Michelle Hawthorne and I live in Collinsville, Illinois, right over the river from St. Louis, Missouri. Collinsville's is the horseradish capital of the world and home of the world's largest ketchup bottle. Don't you want to visit us now?
I am married with 2 children, Jacob 11 and Polly 9. I have always been extremely devoted to my family. I wouldn't miss a field trip, sporting event or party. I am Chairman for the book fair each year and volunteer in the library every week. Although very fulfilling, nowhere in my life did I have my own self-identity, not to mention being able to personally contribute financially to our family.
Then I found AmeriPlan®, or AmeriPlan® found me. My goal was to #1) work from home, #2) make a lot of money! I don't do anything “just a little”, so after researching the Company, I knew that I could really put my heart and soul into this business. In approximately 6 weeks, I made Regional Sales Director and will be Senior Regional Sales Director in the next month or so – no doubt about it! I have a second family now, my AmeriPlan® Family, that will support me and see me through to my financial goals. My goal is to be in Dallas, Texas at The Leaders of Tomorrow Conference in January.
We recently purchased 2 1/2 acres on a lake and are currently looking at floor plans. My kids are so excited and I'm thrilled we're building a piece of heaven on earth together as family. Life is not a dress rehearsal. If you believe you can do it, you can. Listen to your dreams and make them happen. Don't wait for tomorrow, today's the day!

Kelly Planzo, Regional Sales Director
My name is Kelly Planzo I am from St. Louis Missouri. My husband is a chiropractor and
about 7-8 years ago we owned our own chiropractic office. My husband became a provider
for AmeriPlan®. It was a great program to offer to our patients because, as you know, we could not
"legally" give a patient a cash discount without it being considered a hardship case. So this
was a legal way we could offer our patients a cash discount. The Program worked and our patients
loved it. At the time, I did not know there was a business opportunity with AmeriPlan®. We
sold our practice and forgot all about AmeriPlan®.
Over the winter I was working a 40-hour-a-week job and training horses on the side for
25-30 hours a week. I knew I wanted to work for myself. I had tried everything under the
sun and everything I had tried was a scam. No matter, I once again answered an ad.
I talked to Lowell Farmer, came home and asked my husband what the name of the
discount program was that we had offered in his chiropractic office those many years ago.
He could not remember. When I told him I answered an ad and it was for AmeriPlan®, he said,
"That was it !" I joined as an IBO because I knew the Program worked and the Company was for
real.
Even with setbacks, I am on track and ready to move forward. I work with a wonderful team,
and I know I will succeed. I will be a Senior Regional Sales Director soon. My desire is to be
nominated and selected to attend The Leaders of Tomorrow Conference in January. Thank you
for this great opportunity. It is a privilege to be on this Team.

Jim and Barbara Campbell, Regional Sales Directors
Barbara joined as an AmeriPlan® IBO and I spent the next thirty days trying to convince her that AmeriPlan® was just another multi-level marketing gimmick where someone else makes money and you don't. Instead I convinced myself that AmeriPlan® was the real thing. At her urging, I attended a Saturday morning orientation at the Dallas Regional Office (near our home) where I met Dale Brooks. He assured me that we could do this business and that it was a two to four year journey to reach National Sales Director making a residual income of $100,000 per year.
We embarked on our journey listening to Dale Brooks tell us how to do the business the AmeriPlan® way and three weeks later later we had been promoted to RSD and earned $1,170.
Also, at the Regional Office, we listened to Mike McDonald telling new IBO's that a minimum one year learning curve was to be expected. It was exactly that for us and now we are truly working toward our goal and expect to make that goal within the next year. An exciting time has come into our lives again and we look forward to the future.
This is from Barbara: There are so many things I want out of our AmeriPlan® business it would take a scroll to list them. But, one of the things I want is the money to be able to be with my grandchildren and to do for them all that I want. They are the motivating factor that keeps me going. I thank God for AmeriPlan® because this will give us the desires of our heart for a lifetime! I never knew what true residual income meant until AmeriPlan®. As Zig says, "See you at the top".

Tanya Harrell, Regional Sales Director
Hello, I'm Regional Sales Director, Tanya L. Harrell, of Clinton, Maryland.
I joined AmeriPlan® under my sister, Phyllis Long. I currently work full-time as a
Computer Trainer and I work AmeriPlan® part-time. I used to be a Benefits Administrator so
I'm very familiar with the Healthcare Industry and the constant rising cost of benefits.
I am very confident in what AmeriPlan® has to offer. I caught the vision of "sharing and caring"
a long time ago, and I have no problem with earning a lifetime residual income while helping others.
I plan to be a full-time AmeriPlan® Trainer very soon.

Karen and Ray Cummings, Regional Sales Directors
Ray and I were married in July 2005. Ray would be retiring from the post office in about
four years, and I was prayerfully looking for a job that would allow me the freedom to spend
time with him during his retirement years without being chained to a desk or waiting tables
for the extra money we would need to continue to support our blended family. When I came across
an ad in a newspaper that offered me just what I was looking for - a part time job I could work
from home that would in no way interfere with my current schedule - I knew my prayers had been
answered. My husband Ray is working right along side me, and we have been blessed by AmeriPlan®
not only financially with the added income but also as a couple. We have grown closer through
our commitment to making our AmeriPlan® business a success. By the time Ray retires, the only
schedules we'll have to worry about will be those the kids impose upon us, which are the most
rewarding. We also spend our free time doing more at the church which is also a number one
priority for us. Thank you AmeriPlan®!!

Dwayne and Melissa Stutzman, Regional Sales Directors
Hello and welcome. We live in Wauseon Ohio and are so proud to be a part of this team and company. AmeriPlan® is just an awesome company to work and to be a part of the Garvey's Legacy Team is also an awesome opportunity. This team gives so much in support and training and are there when you need them.
We came into AmeriPlan® because we were tired of working for others and wanted more freedom and more out of life. We wanted to start living life- not let life live us. We were looking for a home based business and found AmeriPlan®. Its the best decision we ever made. AmeriPlan® is the first home business that we've ever done.
We are on track to becoming National Sales Directors and earning that six figure residual income and more. We're looking forward to our journey with this Company and this Team to a more prosperous and fulfilling life. We'd like to welcome you on this exciting journey and wish you much success.

Deirdra Singleton, Regional Sales Director
My name is Deirdra Singleton...I have an Associates Degree, was working toward a B.A., taking entrepreneur classes through "The First Step Foundation" in Kansas City, Missouri, and on my way to starting a Grant Writing business. I developed breast cancer while in the process of getting my business off and running. I then became paralyzed and had to have cervical spine surgery. I am now five years without a recurrence of cancer and feel like a million. I became an AmeriPlan® IBO and have been very glad to be working with AmeriPlan®. I plan to have a very happy relationship with this business. I reached RSD this week and intend to climb as high as possible on this ladder to success !

Jeff and Jeannie Fusselman, Regional Sales Directors
Jeannie was always showing me business opportunities on the internet. Well, I can pick a business apart.
But when she showed me AmeriPlan®. I said "this is different. This will work." You see, we own an
eighteen-wheeler and we couldn't see ourselves being able to do anything else. But nevertheless,
Jeannie was looking. When she showed me AmeriPlan® and I looked it over, I decided to call and check it out.
I saw a need and I saw a way we could build this business and drive a truck at the same time. You see,
we work this business from our truck, and as long as we have our laptop and a cell phone, we can work
it from anywhere. We made over $1,000.00 on our way to REGIONAL SALES DIRECTOR and we are well on our
way to getting off of the truck and doing AmeriPlan® full time.

Mary Vinsonhaler, Regional Sales Director
My name is Mary Vinsonhaler. I have a wonderful husband named Larry, three children - Steven 25, Katrina 19, and Heather 18, two fantastic son in-laws and a beautiful grandbaby, "Hannah".
For a long time, I had been searching for a means to retire without having to struggle financially day by day. The thought of leaving the work force and making less money (which already wasn't enough) seemed very scary. Thanks to Joe Clarke, I found a brochure hanging on a community board in a local department store. It completely changed my direction in life! I made $1,200 on the way to RSD. It only gets better from here. Being able to spend time with Hannah as she grows is a dream come true. I missed so much time with my own children while I slaved for someone else. I am on my way to National Sales Director in the near future. Seeing so many others reach that goal is an inspiration and gives me driving force. I send a Big Thank You to Joe & Sharon Clarke and Chuck & Tana Nicholson and a Huge Thank You to AmeriPlan USA®!

Craig and Elaine Palmer, Regional Sales Directors
After ten years of working in law enforcement, 'life' happened. Ever had "life" happen
to you? What did you do? For me, whatever it was, it had to be quick. I decided that
it was time to seriously think about other ways of generating income. Oh, I had tried
many home based businesses before. But, I've found that AmeriPlan® is the only one that
really meets a need of the people....about 43 million people. Because of AmeriPlan® we
now have a great future ahead of us. We thank God for the founders of this company,
Dennis and Daniel Bloom, and for the leaders that God has placed in our lives... Thanks
again.

Jackie Forde, Regional Sales Director
Hi, my name is Jackie Forde, I relocated to Hiram Georgia almost 3 years ago from Brooklyn NY, to offer my son a better life. The reason I started this business was for an extra income, because I had pay the note for an SUV I recently purchased. I had no clue what I had gotten into, but I was going to try it so see if I could make some money. Well, I did and it was at that point that I began to realize that I found something good!
I started going to all the regional meetings in Atlanta. One thing stuck in my head after every meeting and it was that I had to create/discover the strong “WHY” for myself. WHY was I really doing this business. And that WHY needed to be bigger and deeper to me than that SUV.
One morning I was driving to work, and my WHY came to me as clear as daylight.
My WHY is that beautiful child you see here in the picture with me, my son Trevon.
He is now 9 years old. We've walked through some of life's challenges. Trevon was diagnosed as developmentally challenged. He took physical & occupational therapy for four years and speech therapy for the last 7 years. He's had lead poisoning; tubes for hearing loss; and he is on medication for ADHD. I am thankful that it is not any worse.
My son is the most important person in my life, and I have cried many tears for him. I firmly believe GOD gave me this child for a reason. So as I began to put my WHY in perspective, I knew!!! GOD gave me this opportunity for a reason as well, and that reason is to be a blessing to those that have been such a blessing to my son and me. Life will try to get in your way… that's just the way things work, but we've got to keep focusing on the vision (WHY), because there's light at the end of the tunnel.
I know there is; GOD didn't bring me this far to leave me. Look for the Light at the end of of the tunnel. Dennis and Daniel Bloom had the Vision, and we just need to follow it.
Thanks AmeriPlan®.

Tina R Dawson, Regional Sales Director
My background is Real Estate and Insurance. I was called by my one of my business mentors and was told to join AmeriPlan® as one more thing I could market. I joined and that was that. I began plugging in so that I would know a little about the company, etc. The more I plugged in, the more I was loved-on and encouraged. This was strange to me. A company that cared about me as an individual…yeah right! The first check came very quickly and it made me a believer. The second check came and I said "I can do this". The third check came and I wanted to plug in more!
Before I knew it, I was a Regional Sales Director. Four of us worked hard and went to our first National Convention and that is where EVERYTHING came together. We didn't know then what we were getting into but now we know.
AmeriPlan® is not about getting rich quick. It's not about the high earners in the company. It's not about getting your money and the company not "Delivering On The Promise®". AmeriPlan® is all about the YOU! It's all about making ALL of YOUR dreams come true. It's all about letting YOU to know that you ARE special and worthy of ALL the promises God has promised you.
It's all about pulling people up which pushes you up the ladder of success. You CANNOT succeed in AmeriPlan® without helping others to succeed! The people in our organization truly want to see people succeed.
While I have been with this company, I have met people from ALL walks of life. Most of them were at their lowest point when AmeriPlan® was introduced to them. AmeriPlan® has saved families and lives. AmeriPlan® has been a door opener for me.
AmeriPlan® has enabled me to increase ALL of my businesses, meet new exciting people and go places I've only dreamed of going. It's enabled me to be able to stand on my own two feet financially. Now, my kids will be able to have the best education and life style I can give them. A legacy is being left behind for them and they are being taught so the generations after me will be debt free.
Money with wisdom = POWER! The best is yet to come with this company. Come aboard and soar with us knowing we are ALL blessed to be a blessing.

Steve Sanders, Regional Sales Director
I am a Harvard MBA who left the corporate world and moved to Griffin, Georgia to take care of my mother who has Alzheimer's Disease. Although I have worked in management for companies including General Electric, Exxon, and Marriott, nothing has been quite as rewarding as working with my teammates and customers as a part of AmeriPlan®. The great sense of satisfaction this opportunity brings in helping others, and also in working toward a common worthwhile goal as a team, has been tremendous. What I would like you to know about me does not stop there however. If not for the grace of God I would not be here today.
Early in 2006 I was diagnosed with Non-Hodgkins Lymphoma Cancer and was critically ill. I lost 40 pounds, had chronic fatigue, constant fever, extreme anemia, and night sweats. Three quarts of bloody fluid had settled around my heart. My spleen where the cancer had attacked had to be removed after swelling up to the size of a football (it's normally the size of a fist). My recovery after 8 rounds of chemotherapy at which time I went into full remission was labeled by my oncologist as "...a miracle case." Today, I have regained all my weight and my blood counts are normal.
Now, everyday is a blessing from God and it is my goal to help as many people in a positive way as I can with whatever time I have left, and to be a Christian servant to others. AmeriPlan® came along in my life as I recovered from cancer and has allowed me to realize that goal while building a future of financial freedom for myself and my mother who I continue to serve as a caregiver. Finally, the experience of working in an atmosphere with other Christians like Joe and Carol Garvey has been uplifting and has given me a vehicle to live out my faith within the framework of the AmeriPlan® system. I am thankful for what AmeriPlan® has meant to me.

Stacy Treadway, Regional Sales Director
I am a stay at home married mother of four wonderful children. My
children are 14, 10, 9 and 22 months old. My children are why I choose
to work from home. I have worked outside the home and the benefits to
my family and I can not compare to those that I have now working with
AmeriPlan®. AmeriPlan® to me is dream comes true! I have the luxury of
running my own business, setting my own schedule, and my own hours in
the comfort of my own home. I could not ask for a better opportunity
than what AmeriPlan® has opened up for me. This has been one of the
best decisions of my life so far. My children love having me home
everyday with them and I love being home. I am helping others and that
to me is rewarding in itself. I enjoy going to sleep each night knowing
what I do is helping people all over the United States. I am on a
wonderful team of people that are from all types of backgrounds and in
different areas on the map. We are working together helping one another
achieve financial freedom. I am soaring my way to the top. The sky is
the limit and thanks to AmeriPlan® I now have the wings to fly!

Gloria and Scott Stacy, Regional Sales Directors
Scott: I am in the Airline Industry as an Aircraft Dispatcher Manager of Training, and I also serve with the Air National Guard as a Survival Instructor for a total of
26 years of military experience. My wife, Gloria, actually began our AmeriPlan® business and I immediately became involved. I saw AmeriPlan® as a way to help her stay at home,
and I also see AmeriPlan® as a way to help people in need.
Gloria: My background is in the Medical field for last 25 years. I have worked almost every aspect of the medical environment; surgical, back and front office. For the last 10
years, I have worked the Insurance aspect of the medical field. At first, I joined AmeriPlan® to help my uninsured son with a dental issue. A few minutes after getting his
membership set up, I was called about being an IBO - I jumped at the opportunity to make money and look forward to staying at home.

Sarah Gopalakrishnan, Regional Sales Director
I am an accountant by profession and was employed with one of the top companies, but
I wanted to get out of the corporate world and the everyday hectic commute to work. I
found what I was looking for in AmeriPlan®. Now I am happy staying home, working my
own hours and most of all, I am there when my family needs me. I have several people
who joined my team part time with different backgrounds and are now doing AmeriPlan®
full time. I am committed to working with my team together we can take our
AmeriPlan® Businesses to the top. Rising cost of Healthcare is the topic of the day.
AmeriPlan® is the right company with the right service that people need and can afford.
Get started and get your own share of the phenomenal business.

Yvonne Hopson, Regional Sales Director
My name is Yvonne Hopson. Before I began my AmeriPlan® business, I had been laid off from 3 different companies in a row.
I was so frustrated because corporate-America just kept letting me down. I had already tried several other business opportunities and was
never really successful but I knew that there were hundreds of thousands of people working from home. I just needed to find the right opportunity.
I started looking again for a way to work from home because I truly needed to take control of my own financial future and that's when I found AmeriPlan® .
AmeriPlan® has been a huge blessing for me and my family. Not just financially but it has allowed me to have time freedom. I am currently working my AmeriPlan®
business on a part-time basis, but I know that soon I will have true financial freedom if I continue to put in the time and effort. I absolutely love AmeriPlan®
and I am so greatful to our team for all of their support!

Sakinah Rasheed, Regional Sales Director
I am a Clinical Psychologist by profession. I graduated with all of my credentials in 1986 and was licensed to practice psychology in 1989.
I have worked in college teaching, community mental health, and private practice. In 2005 I enrolled in Coach University to obtain training in coaching healthy,
normal people to be abundantly happy, successful, and prosperous. I also am working on becoming certified as a coach through the International Coaching Federation (ICF).
Throughout most of my professional life I never considered doing anything in network marketing. I think I was harboring a prejudice that it is "one of those pyramids."
I was not happy with my career, because Clinical Psychology in private practice is usually paid for by managed care insurance companies, and they don't pay us our full fee.
Furthermore, sometimes they don't pay us. I was looking for a dental program when George Ramsey, now my upline, starting talking about his residual income. When I attended
a business briefing there were several aspects which attracted me: These included that although I had made a decent middle-class income as a psychologist, it is not residual
income. If I don't work, I don't get paid. If I get sick or take a vacation, I bear the cost of paying for doctor/medicine costs, paying for hotels/restaurants/travel, while
I make no money in my practice. I did not have a decent retirement account nor disability plan. Residual income seemed the answer. That "pyramid" prejudice crumbled like dust
as I saw that it is legal, ethical, and honest. Another aspect that attracted me is that, being a practitioner myself, I knew that some of my own patients could benefit from
having what AmeriPlan® had to offer. I knew that the dental program would benefit me. The third aspect that attracted me and ultimately drew me in was that the IBOs have an attitude
of wanting to help and uplift others. This attitude is one that I have always valued, and it is the reason that I chose a career which enabled me to do just that. Now as an IBO
myself, I can work on helping and uplifting others while earning residual income. The average income of National Sales Directors at $100,000 is higher than the average income
of psychologists (at $75,000, I was below average). It is at once an opportunity for me to grow and prosper while putting all of that coach training to work at helping others
to grow and prosper. Together, we can grow to be abundantly happy, successful, and prosperous! |

Diane Bingham, Regional Sales Director
My husband Chuck and I have been married for 14 years and have two very active boys, a 12-yr. old and a 9-yr. old. Both boys are very active in school and karate. My oldest son loves music and computers; my youngest son is a 4-time National Karate Champion.
I had been looking for a home based business for over two years and could never find something that I was comfortable talking about. I knew I wanted to stay home with my family and still be able to bring in a little extra income.
One day I received a postcard in the mail from a lady named Susan. I just thought it was another advertisement and had set it aside. The postcard sat on my counter for a little while before I really looked it over. When I really looked at the card, I noticed that Susan had handwritten it. My first thought was that if she could take the time to write my address and a message on the back then I can give her a little of my time and see what she was about. Boy am I glad I called.
Susan told me what she does and about the company she worked with, AmeriPlan®. You see, I have been in the healthcare business for about 12 years now and am currently a payroll benefits coordinator. I enjoy working with people and helping them if I can.
I made RSD in less than 30 days. My question is why would anyone not join AmeriPlan®? This is a true and honest company. Thanks AmeriPlan®!

Dennis Martin, Regional Sales Director
I was a Life and Health Insurance agent and my longtime friend and retired Naval buddy was an Ameriplan® RSD. I was frustrated because a lot of the people I was trying
to enroll in my Health Insurance had ongoing conditions that pretty much excluded them. It wasn't helping me or them and my buddy said, "well send them to me because we
have no restrictions; I can sign them up".
I didn't understand, but of course he gave me a DVD about AmeriPlan®. I didn't immediately look at it because I was so busy at the high profile Agency I was working at.
As time went by I was still encountering the same problem as well as the high cost of Health Insurance.
Finally, I looked at the DVD and started asking questions. My RSD buddy invited me to a business briefing.
I was impressed and wanted to know more. I again attended the local briefing where I met more impressive people and I joined up shortly after, even though I didn't do
a lot right away as I was still involved in other business ventures my first 6 months.
As I made plans to attend the Breakthrough Conference (Champions Weekend) in Houston, I freed myself up from other commitments and started focusing on the business.
The inspiring stories I heard while there made me seriously dedicate myself to AmeriPlan®. The energy emanating from the hundreds of people I saw was unimaginable.
I didn't know what to expect but even now I still can't describe what I witnessed while there! All I knew was I wanted to get started right away at making RSD!
Ten days later I met my goal. Now I'm focusing on Senior RSD and my goal is to make that by the annual Conference in Dallas. See you at the top!

Misty Bannister, Regional Sales Director
Hi, my name is Misty Bannister, before AmeriPlan® I was a benefits coordinator working the "rat race" or "9 - 5" (whatever you want to call it, I saw no way out). I became
pregnant and worked up to the day I delivered my beautiful baby girl. I had every intention of going back to work, that was until spending time with my brand new daughter.
I realized over the next few weeks there was no way I could leave her in the hands of strangers. Not to mention most of my earnings would be spent on daycare, and gas traveling
to one of the only places that had an opening for an infant, not to mention the stress I would be adding to my exhaustion. I realized if I could just make what would be left
over of my check that I could stay home and raise our child myself. It would be a challenge working from home though in the end worth it, but what was I going to do and how
was I going to make money?
I remember crying so many nights about it, and my husband kept telling me that everything would work out. He said that "when people are backed into a corner they always find
a way and to not give up. All I had to do is think outside the box and create a business for myself." In most circumstances I appreciate my husbands optimism, but at this point
I felt it to be patronizing and I was starting to lose hope. I had been looking at every "home business" and Internet scam out there. Everything I'd seen looked as if most are
preying off of those in helpless situations who will believe ANYTHING ...and we were running out of money. This made things even harder because those that seemed to be businesses
took a good chunk of money to start up.
Then one day I received a call from a lady named Susan Malicki, she was not the first to call me that day, including a friend of mine who wanted me to join him in a venture
he was starting. All of a sudden I not only had one option, I had two! I talked to each over the next week, and I knew I liked the AmeriPlan® service best, but once I saw
that AmeriPlan® offered customer service, unlimited training, Health benefits, 401K, AD&D Insurance, and no start-up cost (only a small overhead fee to run my business monthly)
I knew I had found what I was looking for! I cannot thank this Legacy Team enough, they have been tremendous and have helped me not only stay home and make money but to dream
again! Get your questions answered and find out today if you will be the next to start dreaming and stop looking, cause you've found it!

Melissa English, Regional Sales Director
I am a single mom with two sons in college and live in the northern suburbs of Atlanta. In June of 2006, I was laid off from an administrative assistant's job.
For several months afterwards, I was convinced I could launch a speaking and teaching business on nutrition and healthier living. Well, there's not much money there
in the beginning!!!! One could starve while doing that without proper financial backing! During this time, life was pretty chaotic and while collecting unemployment
I sought a nanny position through an agency When I was hired, I thought I could be there until the children were grown but it didn't turn out that way, and I was
laid off from that position, too! Soon afterwards, I heard about AmeriPlan® and believed I could make this business work. AmeriPlan® is simple and is needed by so many
people. I had tried other home based businesses before but for one reason or another found them difficult to get off the ground. Now I have confidence that my life
is in my own hands with a really stable company behind me, AmeriPlan®, and a Great LEGACY TEAM to work with. I look forward to helping many people save thousands
of dollars with our benefits plans, while helping others become successful in businesses of their own.

Tammy Graham, Regional Sales Director
As a stay home mom, I decided after my daughter became a teenager it was time for me to do something with my life. I developed my own haircare products. I started marketing and promoting my haircare products line from home. The market was saturated and didn't generate enough income. I later worked in public relations in an adult day care facility to generate extra income. I still felt a need to try something more aggressive and exciting.
I chose AmeriPlan® because of the ability to work from my home, be my own boss and generate income at the same time. I look forward to a great future with finanical freedom.

JoAnn Bell, Regional Sales Director
I have spent the past 20 years raising a family and working within the banking industry. I had tried different network marketing businesses but the products were not something people needed but rather things people wanted and so the businesses never amounted to anything.
I still needed a means of generating extra money when a friend introduced me to AmeriPlan®. I liked the idea of residual income and how working from 7 to 10 hours a week for 2 to 4 years I could build a business that would change my life. The product and services are needed by millions of people across this nation and not something they will drop when things get tight.
I am enjoying the extra income and proud to say it continues to grow each month as does my business. Stay tuned as my business grows and my story unfolds. Remember don't let anyone or anything steal your dream.

Lionel and Jaimee Harbin, Regional Sales Directors
We are the Harbins, Lionel and Jaimee. We have three wonderful children 17, 14 and 6 years of age, and live in Pelham, Alabama. We always dreamed
of having our own home-based business that would create a lifestyle of time and financial freedom for us. I know that we have found that in AmeriPlan®.
My background is civil engineering, working in state government for over 22 years. Jaimee works in property management for a nationwide banking institution.
Our plan is to earn at least $100,000 a year with AmeriPlan® within three years and retire from our current jobs. AmeriPlan® could not have come along at
a more strategic time in our lives. We are involved in various community and ministry activities in the Birmingham, Alabama area. I am very thankful to God
for bringing Joe and Carol Garvey into our lives to introduce us to and share with us this great company and awesome opportunity! We will see you all at
the top and God Bless!

Floretta Harris, Regional Sales Director
As a retiree from the Department of Education, I was interested in keeping busy and earning additional income. When I heard of AmeriPlan®, I knew
that this what I wanted to do. I know that there are people who need to make money and people who want to save money. I count this as a ministry
because I introduce these benefits to people who really need them and have not as yet found a way to obtain them. I am RSD and working toward the
next level. I am a part of "TEAM BALTIMORE" under Mary & Bernard Mallory. My recruiter is Vivian Lakes who works diligently with and beside me
working toward our next level. Thank you AmeriPlan®

Dr. Robert J. Williams, Regional Sales Director
I moved from Maryland to Atlanta, Georgia and was introduce to AmeriPlan® by my only family member living in Atlanta.
This a very good home business and can help thousands and thousands of people who
have no help with Health Care Expenses. We can help them no matter what the needs are for their Health.
I'm very impressed by the fact that 80% of my members remain signed up AmeriPlan® year after year.

Lisa Woolsey, Regional Sales Director
I stumbled upon AmeriPlan® by pure luck. My boyfriend came home one day and told me about a discounted health program one of his co-workers told him about.
That co-worker was Ricky Maghanoy. Ricky and his wife, Doreen invited us to attend an AmeriPlan® meeting to get additional information about the discounted
health program. At first I was skeptical because I knew there was more to this than a just discounted health program - why else would we be invited to a meeting.
But I decided to go to the meeting with an open mind and listen to the information. I watched the video on how to save money, which I was thoroughly impressed with.
When the video on how to make money was played, it had my full attention. The people in the video inspired me so much, that by the end of the meeting I signed up as an IBO.
My journey toward RSD has been very rewarding, yet extremely challenging at the same time. I'm a full-time paralegal by day, step-mom to three wonderful girls at night,
and a triathlete in training in my spare time. I finished first place in a relay triathlon on September 9. But despite the obstacles, the ups, and the downs, I have succeeded.
I thank God everyday for bringing Ricky and Doreen into my life. Thank you, Ricky and Doreen, for your friendship and for believing in me. Your constant communication helped me
to stay focused. I also owe a great deal of thanks to Tana Nicholson and Michelle Fughigami for their continued help, support, and inspiration. Thanks to Brian Raynes,
Ozell Hazzle, Cliff Massey, and all the other great people at Washington's Regional Office for sharing their knowledge and being there when I needed help. And last but not least,
a special thanks to Sydney Larsen, who became a dear friend and who is responsible for being the “match that lit my fire,” so to speak. I am excited about my future with
AmeriPlan®. I'm looking forward to firing my boss and working from home full-time so I can do what I want and spend time with my family. See ya'll at the top!

Julie French, Regional Sales Director
I live in Texas and had been in Banking for over 20 years. I raised 2
daughters alone during that period of time. I remarried in 2000 and had brain
surgery in 2004. Since the surgery I have been suffering migraine
like headaches and other side effects. This is when I decided I needed to
stay home, because going to work every day with a headache was very hard to
do. My husband Gene was paying all the bills but, I have always been an
independent person and wanted to make my own money. I started looking in the
paper for a part time job, one that I could do from home. I saw the ad Shannon
Ukrop had in the paper, so I called her. I was skeptical like so many people seem to be about working from home, but
Shannon was so nice. She took the time to answer all my questions until I was
comfortable. I then joined AmeriPlan®, and today, I am so glad that I did. After being inspired by the people on
the DVD's and being on the weekly calls, I am determined to make it to the top.
This is a great company to be with. AmeriPlan® gives you the opportunity and the room to grow so you can have the financial
freedom and the lifestyle you are looking for.

Cassandra and David Rucker, Regional Sales Directors
I had worked many part-time jobs and ran booths in an effort to have a home-based business that would provide enough income for financial freedom over many years.
However, the financial freedom never did come. We use to joke that 'success would have to catch up' for we were going ahead working our plans. Success never did catch up
with those other businesses.
Thanks to my friend and upline Caura Smith for introducing me to AmeriPlan®.
After being referred to the website and hearing 'What If' on the DVD, it seemed to resound throughout and really made an impact that caused me to dream again. The
decision to join up was not made until after I completed my degree, Masters of Human Resource Management, eight months later.
My parents had businesses while we were growing up and I remember how they were FREE to do things with the family and they left a legacy to the family. I realized
that working in Corporate America really had not let me have the 'financial freedom' or 'quality time' that I really wanted for my life. Two-three weeks vacation and
8-10 hours working a day---did not provide me the opportunity to spend the quality time with my family.
Going to my warm market to start my AmeriPlan® business enabled me to recruit my son Christopher Rucker (RSD) and my sister Marylyn Walden (IBO) into the business.
Our family was proud when Chris made RSD and I made it 30 days after him! Together, we as a family are going to the top of this business.
The training, encouragement, and support that I receive from Joe & Sharon, Tana & Chuck, Joe & Carol really has inspired me to push beyond the glass ceiling of
corporate America and to set my goal of being NSD or higher! See you at the top!

Nichole Gabriel, Regional Sales Director
My Name is Nichole Gabriel. I was introduced to the AmeriPlan® business by my dear friend Gee. She introduced me to the business about 1 year before
I decided to get started. I wish I had started sooner! I had been frustrated by businesses that were not a perfect fit for me and that limited the amount of
income I could make. With AmeriPlan®, It is nice to now get paid month after month for the same sale! And not long after I started, I tallied up my checks and
I had made more than $1,000 working a home business with AmeriPlan®. Finally, I thought! I couldn't believe it! Something that actually worked, as long as I did!
I've come a long way since then and I'm proud to be a Regional Sales Director (RSD). I know I'm in the right industry, as healthcare is clearly a problem facing
most Americans (as is evident by the many, many, many TV commercials for healthcare related products and services). I have worked several businesses, and have
never had success like I have in AmeriPlan®. I have worked harder, with less distraction (and less children :->) on almost all of my other businesses, but I
never saw the results I have seen in THIS business. I have the ability to earn extra income from home - where I can be with my kids and homeschool my oldest.
I look forward to my future with this Company. I am well on my way to Senior RSD and look forward to the income to show it!

Dana LaPaglia, Regional Sales Director
I am a single parent and me and my 9 yr old daughter live in Maryland. When I was introduced to AmeriPlan®, I was going through a divorce and was not
getting any kind of financial help so I knew it was up to ME to make things happen. AmeriPlan® was a no brainer to me. I knew that I could do very well
because of my passion to help people and I knew that healthcare was in such a crisis that the opportunity was huge. Plus, I liked the idea that there is
no hype with AmeriPlan®. We have something simple but yet very needed. It is so straightforward, plain and simple, cut and dry. We don't offer another
product or claim to have a lotion-potion promise. We all have teeth, we all have eyes, we all occasionally go to the doctor and alot of us take routine
medications. We as IBO's are are able to help so many people. This is one of the best decisions I have ever made. This is a wonderful opportunity to
help people save money on their healthcare while making an incredible income.
I value the relationships that I have built through my AmeriPlan® business and I look forward to helping all of my Team Members in accomplishing their goals too.
My goal is to become a National Sales Director and earning a six figure residual income and my Team Members can count on me to help them accomplish their financial
goals too. If you capture the vision and truly see the value in AmeriPlan®, anything can happen. Thank you so much AmeriPlan® and thank you to all of my Team Members!

Loree Evans, Regional Sales Director
My name is Loree Evans and I live in a tiny town called Sodaville, OR with a population of 303 people!
I joined AmeriPlan® because I needed to earn money from home and there are no (zero, nada) job opportunities where I live.
I'm building my business over the internet since there are no participating providers in my extremely small town or even
within miles and miles. I use one of AmeriPlan's® approved vendors for memberships. That way I can work all over the country,
in areas where there are plenty of providers. That's how I reached RSD. I not only get members but IBOs as well through that system.
I'm on my way to SRSD. Everyday, I look forward to calling the many people who are in need of affordable healthcare and/or are
looking for a real way to make money from their homes. Thanks to AmeriPlan® and their approved vendors, I'm helping people all over
the nation from my home with no commuting and no high gas prices!
Thank you AmeriPlan!®

Mayfee Anang-Baffour, Regional Sales Director
I started this business with the wrong mindset. I had thoughts that this would be another failed attempt because every other online business I tried in the
past failed woefully. I promised myself that I would never again take on another. However, my thoughts changed with one phone call I received from my
Upline Jeanne Boone. I am so very glad I committed myself. I have prevailed despite challenges. I am working with faith and perseverence. I have focus and a goal.
As the Seven Core Commitments say:
I will be here a year from now (and beyond)! The choice I made to do AmeriPlan® is the best thing that ever happened to me. Thank you, AmeriPlan®!

I have been with the company for two and a half years. I am a Regional Sales Director and a Certified Regional Trainer. I am having fun, we help people and I love
what I do. Live training and online support is available to you at no cost. We will work with you and train you every step of the way.

Heather Johnson, Regional Sales Director
Hi, I am Heather. When I started AmeriPlan® it was out of sheer frustration with the so-called "real life". You know the one:
go to college for 4-6 years; get a college degree, then hand over the rest of your life to punching a time clock. I was going to
college and raising my baby boy at the time I started AmeriPlan®. I had this whole life figured out, until I found out that I have
Fibromyalgia. Then my whole life changed. Sure, you can still live a 'normal' life: work 40 hours a week and try to balance it with family
life, you'll just be extremely exhausted. This was not the way I wanted my life to be, My child was too important to me, to be there
for him only a few hours a day. But if I didn't work that meant my husband would be staying on the road truck driving until he retired.
This, also, was not how I wanted my life to be. So I set out to find a way to have the life that I want...that's how I found AmeriPlan®.
So here I am today, on the road to the life that I want. My husband and I are working toward the freedom of the open road for us and our kids.
Our goal is to be able to live out on the road in an RV, for a little while with our child or children by then, home schooling them. This will
be made possible with AmeriPlan®! I just want to say, never give up no matter how hard it may get at times. Also thank you to Tana and
Chuck for helping me make my dreams come true.

Michael and Sharyn Pendergist, Regional Sales Directors
Hello, I am Michael Pendergist. My wife, Sharyn, and I have been married 30 years. We've known each other since 1955. We grew up across the street from one another, never dated in school, ran in to each other again in '79 after we had both gone through a divorce and were married 3 months later and the rest is history.
My background is in the packaged food industry. I was a Divisional Sales Manager for Nabisco Foods, Regional Director of Sales for Health Valley Foods, National Sales Manager for Weider Nutrition International. I was President of The Allied Food Club of Kansas City '90-'91 and on the Board of Trustees '90-'95. I was Divisional Sales Person of the Year with Nabisco Foods in '89.
My dream was to retire at 55 which I did in July of 2001. What happened on 9/11 threw a monkey wrench in my retirement plans, but I decided to take at least 3 years off before going back to work. I re-entered the workforce in 2005 as an Account Executive with Washington Mutual Bank's Wholesale Lending Division. In '08 Washington Mutual Bank withdrew from wholesale lending and I went with Plaza Home Mortgage in Denver, CO.
I'm building our AmeriPlan® business to have something that is 9/11 proof. Something that I have control over as to how much I want to invest of myself and how big I want to grow. I don't want to have to worry if my company is withdrawing from the market and I am going to have to start all over again. I have compared the cost of dental insurance against the cost of the Dental Plus Plan® and hands down AmeriPlan® is by far the better consumer value.

Gary Strickland, Regional Sales Director
My background is pretty much simple. I graduated high school in 2005 while working in retail for a few years trying to support my family. My fiancé and I were out to eat one day when
I noticed a gold card that read: "NEED MORE MONEY?". Wayne Dobson's name was on it and his phone number. I made the call. Wayne introduced me to the the Business and the Team,
and I have been moving forward since then.
I hit my first promotion, RSD, and I'm right at the door to Sr. RSD. I will not stop until I "can't go no more". My fiancé and I really see the big picture, and the opportunity
in AmeriPlan®. $50,000-$100,000 in residual, re-occurring income in 2-4 yrs, here we come! Thanks Wayne and Thanks AmeriPlan®. God Bless

Bonnie A. MacAllister, Regional Sales Director
Hi, I'm Bonnie!
My journey to AmeriPlan® has been a long time coming, and since I've finally found the perfect business to work from home, I'm more convinced than ever that residual income will be the ideal way to survive in this distressed economy.
Over the last 36 years, I have been in business for myself. After working at telephone sales for the Yellow Pages, I decided to never punch a time clock, explain why I was late, answer to any one, be controlled by set hours, only have over 1/3 of my paycheck left after deductions, and most of all, have to drive downtown and back every day, purchase business clothes, pay to park, buy lunch, stay late for meetings, beg for certain vacation dates and only have Saturday and Sunday to relax and enjoy my family and my home.
In 1972, I invented an artificial fingernail process called 'My Nails'. By 1978, I had 52 locations in 19 states and I became the first woman ever to win the Ohio Small Business Person of the Year award. I was invited to Washington, D.C. to attend a Rose Garden Reception hosted by President Jimmy Carter and Senator John Glenn. 'My Nails' placed in the top 5 innovative small business concepts nationally and I was named one of Ohio's Top Ten Business Women, was published in the Wall Street Journal, Business Week, Money Magazine and Success Unlimited, and appeared on Good Morning America, AM Chicago, PM Magazine and numerous other media.
In 1988, I decided to expand my horizons and become a Realtor. By 1994, I became a Real Estate Broker for the MacAllister Real Estate Group (www.bonniemac.com). I had gotten so used to working at home (most of the time in my pajamas), I knew I could never work for anyone else again, and being a self-starter, my business soared, my Brokerage grew, and my income was over $200,000 annually.
As everyone knows, the economy has thrown the Real Estate industry into a tailspin. My income plummeted to $38,000 last year, and I was racking my brain for something to do which would offer me the opportunity to make a good residual income working from home. I saw many of my Realtor friends working at Kroger, Macy's, Wal-Mart, etc., to earn extra money. That was NOT an option for me!
And so, I became an Officiant (www.macallisterofficiant.com) in order to supplement my income. My friend who introduced me to AmeriPlan®, Syndi Shy, is a caterer and wedding planner, and I began marrying her Brides and Grooms in 2008. The Officiant services has grown into a good, steady little side business, but it will take 2 more years to get it running at it's full potential. In the meantime, the house payment and utility bills keep coming in. I knew I needed a vehicle which would make me serious money, and still be at home to work my other two businesses.
Syndi called me in April and introduced me to AmeriPlan®. When I realized the income AmeriPlan® Sales Directors were making and the opportunity for an unlimited potential, I threw off the gloves and dove in! My goal is to make $250,000 a year, which will take me back to where I was “before the bomb dropped”.
I became a Silver Regional Sales Director within 1 month of joining the company, working only part time. I now have some wonderful people on my team and more people joining my group.
Joe and Carol Garvey, National Vice Presidents with AmeriPlan®, head up 'The Legacy Team'. The support is fantastic, the resources and tools are top of the line, and they are there for us to answer questions and give us all tremendous support.
Joe and Carol have shown me how to help people, make money, keep making residual income and bonuses, and how to offer others the benefits of owning their own business.
It's simpler than I thought. When you love what you're doing, it feels easy, too. The system works if you work the system, and I'm heading toward my goals as you read this. Best of all, the checks keep coming, I'm smiling again, and I'm on my way to living a comfortable lifestyle again!

Lee Friedman, Regional Sales Director
I live in Orlando, Florida, but I've also lived in Connecticut, Rhode Island,
and New Hampshire. My friends call me Lee. I am single and I have two wonderful,
cute dogs named Gus and Samantha.
I enjoy many things, but at the top of my list is relaxing on the beaches of the Caribbean, taking Cruises on some
of the world's largest and most extravagant ships as well as exciting week-end
trips to Vegas. For my last vacation, I went on this amazing eight day cruise to
South America. I had the most exciting and marvelous time of my life as I was
able to see the Panama Canal, swim with sharks in Belize, and visit the most
amazing rain forest in Costa Rica.
I feel that Goals and Ambitions are motivating and important in a person's life. Some of my goals have been to
travel the world as well as to ski the Swiss Alps.
I've been fortunate to accomplish many things in my young adult life as well as vacation and travel all
over the United States, Canada, and Mexico. I have also been able to make my own
hours by working from home since graduating from college in 2002.
I'm living "My American Dream" of owning my own business. It has given me the
opportunity to live life to the fullest. I have been able to set my own schedule
and spend time with my family and friends who mean the most to me.
