In 1976, I became involved in Direct sales. I signed up as an Independent Contractor for a direct sales party plan company that sold lingerie. I was selling thousands of dollars of lingerie to women in an era where women were burning their bra’s! I was also bringing “fun-to-wear” underwear into the living room. I became known as “The Naughty Nighty Lady.”

Women loved it. Every woman wants to feel sexy and good about themselves. I was sharing this opportunity to make money with women every night. I was asked to do a segment on a television show called “Evening Magazine.” This television show was picked up in all 50 states and the company went national.

I became almost an instant National Sales Manager. I went to the bank and took out a business loan to recruit in all 50 states. It was not easy. Bankers did not want to loan money to women who sold lingerie at home parties. I was very convincing and got the loan. I had to come up with a name for my team of sales consultants. Should be be called “Ladies of the Nighties,” “Bare Necessities,” or “The Midnight Roamers?’ My husband said why don’t you call your team “The Satin Dolls.”  I asked “Why?”  My husband said you sell satin items and you are all dolls to me. Sounded good to me. SO……THE SATIN DOLL TEAM EVOLVED!
