What do you all think?

I think it is interesting. I took the survey to determine my perfume type (guess that is what it was for) but I had to fill out my contact info. to get my result and I didn't want to do that.


It looks like fun. I don't think I would want to sell, but going to a party would be fun.

Looked like aninteresting conceptto me but not something I would personally do. There is a forum here for UBand Cheryl, the owner of WAHM.com is a repsmileys/smiley1.gif The other gals there seem to have great tips and ideas on how to build the business.

I hope I'm not speaking out of turn. I just happened upon this discussion and love this company so much I had to post something.


Ihave a unique perspective on the Direct Sales world as I have workedon the corporate sidewith MANYdifferent companies in the industry during my 20 year career. Thisis the ONLY one I ever considered joining. I decided to join based on the uniqueconcept, their generous Career Plan, and thebackground of the staff running the corporate office. They are TOP Notch!
Urban Botanicpromotes individuality. For us, life is all about celebrating uniqueness, creating something original, and inspiring others to do the same.


I've been with this unique company since December 2005. I can attest to the ease of doing this business.A team member in AZbooked her first 3 parties over a weekendwhile I was in townto train her. One of those parties had to reschedule last minute. She still made her initial investment back, plus a profit with those 2 parties! VERY exciting.

I think Urban Botaniclooks very cool! In fact I am going to host a party in Jan and if it goes well I will join.

How exciting! What area are you in? You will LOVE it!!!

Wanted to chime in as well. This is an amazing idea for a direct sales company. Several years ago I was a manager for Garden Botanika, and we had a station where you customize your fragrance, and people had more fun playing with various scents trying to make something new and unique. I second what others have said that I would not want to sell it right now, but a party would be fun, and I think this company will do very well.

u.b. spicy
UB Spicy! You are very joyous and animated. You are extremely extroverted, friendly, and excited about life. However you are more than that. You are a unique person with several personality traits. Your signature scent can be as unique as you! http://www.urbanbotanic.com/images/usertemplates/DefaultTheme/en/PrintResultsOff.gif (http://www.urbanbotanic.com/2/TestResults2.html#) <BR clear=all>

Your personality is joyous, and animated. You're always the one cheering others up when the going gets rough. As a Spicy, you love life deeply and are happy, spontaneous, and entertaining. A great story teller, people around you might describe you as, "sparkling". Spicies are very intelligent, multi-talented people. Spicies often have powerful careers because they're so practical and productive - they can get a lot done and work well with others because they generally love life. They have an entrepreneurial spirit and do well as entrepreneurs because they're dynamic and driven. Go get-em!
Spicies are easy to recognize from their over-the-top reactions to everything. If a Spicy were with a friend looking at a magnificent view of nature, the friend would comment on the beauty, whereas the Spicy would be saying - screaming, rather, "It's AMAZING! Just FABULOUS!!!" Nobody reacts as strongly as Spicies. Spicies are definitely extroverts: they're very talkative - sometimes forgetting other people might like to get a word in here and there.
Spicies need money. Not because of power, but because of shopping! Spicies often find themselves in a closet stuffed completely full of clothes, but simply can't find a thing to wear. Spicies are often connoisseurs, whether it be of art, antiques, music, etc. They are pleasure-seekers and love all the beautiful things in life. They are sophisticated people and can be great trendsetters. Sometimes Spicies can be very exhibitionistic, shocking those around them, but this also makes them very fun to be around. When a Spicy is particularly down or burned out, they can become a little bit selfish and demanding.

Hi Michelle,


So glad you took the test. What fun huh? It's such a unique concept. As you can see, it's a total blast! Lots of fun at parties, you really don't have to sell it at all, it sells itself...


Good luck with your biz, I love those parties too!

Annette,


So how did it go? Did you join?

I wasn't going to do anything until after the new year. Now I am ordering a couple of products from one of the rep's. I want to feel the spray (they say it feelswarm andsilky),make sure the scent lasts and really doesn't affect people that are "allergic"....not that I don't believe them, I just want to test things out before I make a decision. KWIM? THEN....I will decide! I still am totally intrigued and interested in this! I think it is very unique and would be sooo much fun!smileys/smiley1.gif Edited by: *~Annette~*

Annette,

Please come back and post once you've received your products. I'd really like to hear what you think about Urban Botanic. smileys/smiley1.gif

ok this does sound interesting


Is there a consultant in KY

Melissa,

I'm 99% certain that there isn't a rep in Kentucky, though I know someone just signed up in Cincinnati!

I am in WV--next door to KY!


Angie

Ok, I did the test too, how fun is that! Imagine, me-fruity? HA, couldn't have pinned it better, LOL. I like how they explain it all to you, makes you feel kinda good about yourself!!

u.b. fruity
UB Fruity! You are self-aware, emotionally balanced, and almost everyone likes you because you're so positive and friendly. You are a very inspired individual and have a gift of being able to empathize with others. However you are more than that. You are a unique person with several personality traits. Your signature scent can be as unique as you! http://www.urbanbotanic.com/images/usertemplates/DefaultTheme/en/PrintResultsOff.gif (http://www.urbanbotanic.com/karen/TestResults2.html#) <BR clear=all>

The Fruity personality is friendly, committed, supportive, hard-working, and encouraging. They're responsible and mature - all of these characteristics make a Fruity a dream employee for any employer.
Fruities need to express themselves and have a very independent nature, great faith in themselves, and tremendous courage. Although Fruities are generally traditional, they can be rebellious at times and will break the rules if they feel they are unnecessary.
One of the most rewarding things for you is seeing a project you've worked hard at finally come to fruition. You can see the end goal during a project and will put all your energies into it - whatever it takes to make it work. And you can really make it happen because Fruities are the best organizers on the planet. You love to feel harmony within yourself, and to know that you are respected and secure.
You are self-aware, emotionally balanced, and almost everyone likes you because you're so positive and friendly. You are a very inspired individual and have a gift of being able to empathize with others. Fruities are true-blue, dependable friends. You can't categorize them as introverts or extroverts - they go back and forth between the two. Fruities are the type to have many acquaintances but only a few they call their best friends. They keep their true friends throughout their entire life. They're very willing to please others and can sometimes be compliant and dutiful at times when others would flee the situation. They have a great need to belong.

Just curious, it sounds neat.
