Welcome to my Stratford Connecticut Home Business Opportunity Website!

Have you been searching the Stratford Connecticut classified ads or maybe online for a USA home business opportunity or an international online income opportunity? Are you looking for a trusted company and opportunity that will provide all the tools, support and training you need to build a successful international online business opportunity from home? Thirteen years ago I too was searching online for an affordable business opportunity I could work part time from home with the ability to build a glocal (global and local) business organization. That is when I was introduced to the ClubShop Rewards home business opportunity and have been building my home business opportunity ever since.

Please allow me to introduce myself. My name is Paula Griffin, I was born in Bridgeport, Connecticut and I now live in Stratford, Connecticut. Stratford, Connecticut is a town in Fairfield County Connecticut, located on Long Island Sound at the mouth of the Housatonic River. You might have heard about Stratford, Connecticut because this is the town that developed and produced the first successful single-rotor helicopter. Also, Katharine Hepburn (4 Time Best Actress Oscar award winner) lived in Stratford, Stephen King (Famous Author) lived in Stratford, William Shatner (Actor in Star Trek and the Expedia guy) lived in Stratford, Richard Melville Hall (Singer AKA Moby) lived in Stratford, Igor Sikorsky (Sikorsky Aircraft Company) and Nancy Marchand (Actress on Sapranos) lived in Stratford. I think the name of Stratford came from William Shakespeare's hometown in England (Stratford-upon-Avon). Alright, enough about Stratford, Connecticut!

I have 3 children. My two sons are 32 & 28 years old, my daughter is 26 years old. I am also the proud grandparent of 2granddaughters and 4 grandsons. I work from home in what I have found to be the greatest online international home based business opportunity you can find online - ClubShop Rewards.

Up until a couple of years ago, I worked as a finance coordinator for a HomeCare Agency, but my true passion has always been my DHS Club business which I am building consistently on the Internet and around the world. Because of my DHS Club business, I was able to resign my finance coordinator position and work full time from home for myself with my home business opportunity. I can't tell you how exciting it's been each and every day since I've joined the DHS Club!

When my children where still young I became a single parent and took a job as a waitress in Stratford Connecticut. I worked long hours to meet the needs of keeping a home and raising a family. I quickly learned that working for someone else was not what I wanted to do for the rest of my life. I knew I had to find another way. That is when I started looking on the internet for a home business opportunity to work online from my home.

How did you find out about ClubShop Rewards?
My first online home business opportunity experience was going very well until the company ended up having major financial trouble, so I dropped out. The good news is through that experience I was able to see that I could be successful online once I found the right home business opportunity company.

I was first introduced to ClubShop Rewards and I was a little hesitant at first because of my last experience, but I figured there was no harm in looking and checking it out. My sponsor told me I could join for free, take a test drive through their online website with my free membership and I could also save money and earn cash back with my free membership if I did any shopping online in their Online Shopping Mall. This was great news because I was living on a very tight budget and every penny I saved meant a lot to me. My sponsor also told me not to upgrade my membership and to just remain a free member and watch what happens. Well, shortly after joining, I started receiving emails from other members, welcoming me to ClubShop Rewards. Wow! I thought this was great, all these folks taking the time to send me a note What a great team of friendly people all willing to help! Well, I didn't wait and I upgraded my membership the next day!

What were your initial concerns about upgrading your membership to become a Partner?
My initial concerns about upgrading my membership to a Partner were due to the bad experience I had with that first online business opportunity company. I thought, what if all these online home business opportunities are the same? What if I get involved and it's not the online home business opportunity I'm looking for? How do I know I can trust this business opportunity & company when there are so many business opportunities out there? How would I know if this is the right business opportunity for me without taking another risk?

How did you overcome those concerns to upgrade and become a Partner?
I quickly learned that ClubShop Rewards home business opportunity IS different then all the other business opportunities out there. I found that there was a Partner support team in place to help me every step of the way. I also like the idea of being able to upgrade to Partner and having a guarantee of at least 100 Partners in my organization within my first 30 days and if not cancel my Partner membership and get my money back. For me this sealed the deal. I could upgrade to Partner, check it out to see what ClubShop Rewards truly had to offer, and if I didn't have at least 100 Partners in my organization, I could get my money back. This was so important to me seeing that I could not afford to risk the money to find yet another business opportunity that would not work.

What do you like about ClubShop Rewards?
Being involved with the ClubShop Rewards business opportunity now for 13 years, I have found that there is nothing on the internet or business opportunity that can compare. The Company support and leadership is tremendous. The online Training courses are exactly what you need, step by step, to learn all you need to know to be successful with your business. Having a Team of coaches available to help you every step of the way is unheard of in any other business. We truly do work together as a team and you always have someone available to answer your questions and to help train you as you move forward in your business. And if that's not enough, you also have a guarantee of at least 100 Partners in your organization to show that everyone is working together to help you build your business.

Also, the online shopping through the ClubShop Mall is great! It's more than your typical online mall! Why? Well, it has over 1000 online stores, you earn cash back on all your online purchases and it's international with malls in the USA, Italy, Canada, Belgium, United Kingdom, Australia, Austria, India, China, Japan, France, Russia and many more international online malls! And of course the online stores the USA online Mall has are great! USA Online stores include Avon, Best Buy, Circuit City, Dell, Expedia, Bealls, Home Depot, Kohls, KB Toys, Macys, Gap, Overstock, PacSun, Rooms To Go, Sears, Target, Upper Deck, Walmart, Kmart, Orbitz, Petsmart, Zales, Zappos, Yves Rocher, Stub Hub, Starbucks Coffee, Staples, Office Depot, Office Max, Callaway Golf Clubs, Radio Shack, Journeys, Turbo Tax, Foot Locker, Nascar Store, ESPN Store, NHL Store, Priceline, Ace Hardware, Adidas, Pay Less Shoe Source, Aeropostale, Apple, Boscovs, Bass Pro Shop, Chadwicks of Boston, Brylane, Disney Store and many more! Who needs to go shopping at the Westfield Shopping Town Mall, Westfield Trumbull Mall, Poughkeepsie Shopping Center or the Westfield Connecticut Post Mall when you got all these great online stores that are only a click away.

I also like the fact that ClubShop Rewards has been in business since 1997 and that they're international! Yes, they have free members and Partners all around the world! Here's a little info about ClubShop Rewards and it's owner Dick Burke.

ClubShop Rewards was officially formed and incorporated in Englewood, Florida USA in June of 1997 by President & CEO Dick Burke, with its first office being located in a small apartment over his garage. Dick has worked many hours researching, developing and improving his original ideas of empowering consumers to save money with a unique, international "buyer's club" concept and enabling people to earn extra money and have their own affordable home based business with a one-of-a-kind Referral and Organizational Marketing Plan. Soon after Dick started to hire the ClubShop Reward's first employees, ClubShop Rewards moved to a small 1,200 square foot office on Dearborn street in Englewood, Florida and launched the company's marketing websites.

The property has been named "The Retreat at Ducks Nest Lake" and has had many improvements made to it, such as building a log cabin, Lodge and Conference Center. Land has also been cleared to add a number of additional log cabins over the next few years.
