Laurie Delk was raised to be a winner. Her parents, both successful entrepreneurial’s in their own respects raised her with the can-do attitude. So it was no surprise that after leaving her corporate accounting career at the age of 26, pregnant with her second child, she ventured out to be entrepreneurial herself.
She went into the world of graphic design in 1994. Worked hard and gave it her all and managed to bring that business into a six-figure income, while still working from home and caring for her four adorable children. For a few years she had volunteered her time at the Christian school her children attended, till she started homeschooling several years ago. Her husband had back surgery that *went bad*, and he had to leave his police work and was addicted to pain meds and in pain for many years, where Laurie had to again get a full time job in order to have insurance for her family, as well as take him to physical therapy every day.
She found Send Out Cards, a direct sales company, in 2004, and has rose through the ranks to the top 20, has served on the prestigious SendOutCards Eagles Nest Advisory Leadership Board and has promoted 4 times with this company, currently ranking only 2 steps from the highest level possible. She enjoys spending time with her family while she builds her incredible & lucrative SendOutCards business. One of the things she loves most about this business is that she can build it anywhere, at any time - her laptop and smartphone are her mobile office and allows her to work where she chooses. Her clients and team members has resulted in numerous company awards over the last 12 years, including 2010 "Making a Difference", 2013 "Gratitude", 2014 "Revolution", 2014 & 2015 "Circle of Excellence", 2014 nomination "Distributor of the Year" as well as being featured in several of the SOCstars magazines - SendOutCards Team Awards & Recognition showcase, and achieving VIP status at the last several company conventions. Laurie is growing a rapidly expanding team, making a positive difference in the lives of thousands and her story with SendOutCards is just a part of it!
Laurie knows how to walk through heartache and the importance of keeping a positive outlook during that heartache. She lost her husband in the beginning of 2013 (while she was speaking at an out-of-town event. With her mother and 2 youngest children with her, she had to drive the 5 hours back home after the news. Laurie lost their family dog of 13 years in June 2013, her grandfather in July 2013, and lost her father in law in 2014. In 2015, her oldest daughter found out she had cancer and thankfully beat that. Most recently Laurie experienced another loss, the loss of her mother in March 2016. Laurie has run several non-profit support groups over the years, including one for cops wives and, now, one for widows.
Laurie has also ran a local networking group in the Nashville area (NashvilleNetworkingBusinessLuncheon.com) the past 8 years, people come from all over the country to her luncheons to hear the great speakers she has, as well as connect with others.
