René & Mel Turner
Atlanta, Georgia
Former Occupation: Industrial Engineer
“I got into this business for freedom. I wanted the freedom to design my life in every area,” says René Turner, a former industrial engineer. René was a full-time mom when her husband, Mel, first introduced her to Primerica. After he decided to pursue a career in the ministry, René had to make a choice. “I had to decide if I wanted to go back to corporate America or face my fear of talking to people and become the lead partner in our business,” René recalls. “My fear of being broke outweighed my fear of rejection!”
Thanks to her success with Primerica, René never has to miss a PTA meeting or sporting event. “Now I am more available to my kids: I have been classroom mother and attend all the school parties and daytime programs that most working women have to miss. I have built a business that gives me the freedom to control my schedule and live according to my priorities. Nobody dictates when I work or how much I can make. It’s always been my choice.” |
