AIM royal emerald director promotion:
Peter and Carrie Malkmus—Knoxville, TN

Peter and Carrie Malkmus are grateful for the people they’ve met through AIM, as well as for the flexibility that the AIM business has afforded them in raising their children and meeting educational goals.

AIM Members since 1994, Peter restores log homes, while Carrie is a homemaker and is very active in the nutritional field. With their extra income, Carrie was able to go back to the University of Tennessee as a full-time student to get her Master’s Degree in Nutrition.

“Now, our extra income allows us to enjoy spending time with our children.” The couple has three children: Dylan, Zackary, and Cade.

The couple’s favorite sales tool is simple—a bottle of AIM BarleyLife®! With that, their favorite AIM product is the AIM Garden Trio®.

When asked about their secret to success, Peter and Carrie agree that “putting people and their needs first and the product second” is priority. “Our motive is to help people.”

A typical business day usually involves calling people, sending e-mails, and doing follow up. Although they state, “It’s important to get outside your comfort zone, to meet new people, and to share the AIM products.” They also favor home meetings.

“We hold frequent meetings to touch people’s lives. We introduce them to vegetarian foods and the AIM products. We keep a very casual setting, so people feel comfortable and invite others to come.”

What other advice would they offer? “Think for yourself, do your own research, and trust God to lead you in the direction you should go.”

“Putting Christ first in your life is the most important thing you can do,” they add.

Through their involvement with AIM, “We’ve met some really great people we would not have met otherwise. We’ve developed lasting, life-long friendships with many people, for which we are thankful.”

Spending time together with their children is important to the couple.

Finally, as a guiding principle, they further state that “putting Christ first in all that you do and the decisions you make will bring far greater rewards, than just making money. We need to get back to the reality of what is really important.”
