In
2001, Divine Romance’s founder
and President, Rayne Ethetton,
was enjoying life as a wife
and stay at home mother to her
2 year old daughter. As much
as she enjoyed this, the longing
for a little "grown-up" interaction,
and the need for extra income
caused her to become a consultant
with another direct sales company
where she eventually became
a Director. However getting
people to do shows proved difficult,
and the income, even as a Director,
wasn't what she was hoping for.
After attending an in-home show
that sold intimate products
for women, she saw the potential
and signed up immediately. She
suddenly had more business than
she could handle! No more begging
people for shows -- everyone
wanted to have a show with her!
She found that she easily climbed
the ladder of success and within
less than two years became one
of the top in sales and gained
more than 60 active consultants
with the company.
Rayne soon
found out that her success was
attributable to the way she
did her shows and that she was
doing them quite differently
than other people in the company.
She noticed the overwhelming
interest in offering classy
shows where the consultant used
medical terms and not raunchy
or pornographic means to sell
the product. Most of all, she
realized that the company she
was promoting did not share
her Christian values. Something
had to change. Consequently,
Rayne started Divine Romance
in her kitchen office with a
hired assistant and a best friend,
Michelle Melton, as a partner.
Word spread quickly and many
women wanted to be a part of
this new concept. The company
quickly outgrew the kitchen
as piles of merchandise filled
it, the hallway, and the foyer.
The kitchen was abandoned for
what is now the Divine Romance
Home Office headquarters and
warehouse and is growing at
an exceptional rate. Divine
Romance now serves consultants
nationwide.
Rayne recognizes
the success of Divine Romance
lies in her commitment to the
mission of the company and its
values, well-trained consultants
and quality products. She recognizes
that her relationship with God
is what makes Divine Romance
successful and is committed
to making sure that the product
line and every decision that
is made at Divine Romance reflects
what the Bible demands.
Divine Romance
is open to all women and offers
them the freedom and opportunity
to own their own business and
provides generous rewards and
recognition for their efforts.
Michelle
Melton began her career in the
direct selling industry after
attending her first show.
At the time, she was seeking
a way to make some extra money
while being able to stay home
with her new baby. Little did
she know that not only would
she be able to make the extra
money her family needed, she
was going to meet some amazing
people in the process.
Michelle
was in the middle of a career
as a horticulturist when she
became pregnant with her first
child and made the decision
to reprioritize her life. She
gave up a very good salary in
a field where she was well-respected
in order to become a full-time
mom. Unfortunately, she and
her husband quickly realized
they needed some extra money
just to keep up with the monthly
bills. She attended one of Rayne's
shows and was immediately interested
in this home-based business
where she could control her
own schedule and have unlimited
income. The more effort she
put into her business, the the
more money she made. It was
perfect.
Michelle
says things only got better
when she was approached by Rayne
to help start a new company
that would not only teach women
how to improve their relationships
but to empower them to have
all the benefits of their own
business with the foundation
of a supportive, successful
company with good values focused
on God. Michelle immediately
signed on to help start this
company where she could help
dreams come true.
Michelle
is committed to helping women
become financially stable and
confident in their abilities
to be successful. She believes
Divine Romance has definitely
made a positive difference in
her life and the future will
only bring bigger and better
accomplishments for her and
every person involved with it.
"We proudly
train our consultants to offer
fun, classy shows to teach women
to open up in the bedroom with
their husband, or future husband,
so that couples can experience
a great marriage for a lifetime...
and for the sake of the next
generation."
