Fashioning a Business: Noelle Rapisarda

 

 Noelle Rapisarda has always been a trendsetter. With a love of fashion, cutting-edge style, and a good head for business, she was intrigued with Vemma after reading a Facebook post from her good friend Jovana Stewart. “Jovana said you could work with your friends, create your own hours, and make good money based on your efforts. It was perfect timing for me to look into the opportunity, as I had just moved back from New York and was looking for a job.”

Taking the Untraveled Path

Noelle’s career experiences in the corporate world had left her dissatisfied and open to new options. “The financial opportunity with Vemma sparked my interest. The whole deal only got sweeter when I tried Verve for the first time and loved it!” To the chagrin of her corporate-minded friends and family, Noelle started a Vemma business. “At my first meeting, I could tell I’d ‘struck gold,’ but there were many people in my life who doubted the industry and were not supportive of me when I first started. It was hard for me to go against so many people and defend myself. Looking back, I have grown so much from the day I first started — not just financially, but how I view myself, and what I know I’m capable of.* I always knew I was a strong person, but you find out just how strong you are when you are challenged by people close to you.”

Getting a Firm “Why”

Noelle is motivated to help people find fulfillment in their lives. “I have seen too many people suffer financially and feel stuck and hopeless in a dead-end job. When I first heard about Vemma, I had this gut instinct that there was something bigger in life waiting for me and this opportunity was my vehicle to get there (and to stay out of corporate!). I think once you develop such a passion for something, it becomes contagious. What motivates me with Vemma is the thought of never having to go work a corporate job again or answer to anyone. I also want to create a stable income for my future family — I want to be able to have the luxury of staying home with my children someday. I love being able to help people build out their Vemma business and quit their other job.* The feeling of knowing that you are impacting people’s lives is powerful — nothing compares to the appreciation you feel from them and their family.”

Looking Ahead

At 23, Noelle is building a bright future and has learned the strength that comes from forging your own path in life. “Many of my friends and family who criticized me in the beginning have taken the time to thank me for introducing them to the products and opportunity. Some have seen amazing health benefits with the products. And at the end of the day, that makes all the struggles and hardships worth it!” Noelle has an ever-growing team spread across the U.S., an incredible work ethic, and is laser-focused on her goals. “My favorite quote is this: ‘Many who started with you may not finish with you — GO ANYWAY.’ You cannot be influenced by other people or their decisions — stay positive, stay plugged in, stay excited, and mainly … dream big! I want to be able to travel around the world growing my team and spreading the word about the company. I would also love to own my own clothing boutique one day, as fashion has always been a deep passion of mine. It is something that I have always dreamed of doing and Vemma is helping me get one step closer to that dream every day!”
