considering Arbonne and have been reading posts about the pups...I'm worried that it will be hard to find people to do parties and am interested in the pups...can someone give me the info on the pup method...


1. can I start with one or use samples as the pup?? (worried about start up costs?)


2. is this a demo pup or are these new kits they get to keep if they want to buy??


3. does anyone use this method instead of parties or just combine the two?


4. how do you deal with the "sticker shock" of the pup cost...do they know up front or do you tell them when you follow-up with them....


Thanks!

Hello!


When I started the pup system I only used one. Then I invested in another after I made some money. I do parties too! I like the parties because it's like a night out for me. But the pup system is less time consuming and leaves me more time with my family.


About sticker shock, I will be honest and say you will find those that think the price is outrageous. I have dropped off pups to people that use the Dove bar of soap to wash so of course it will be expensive to them. And sometimes they still choose to use the bar of soap instead! But there will be many many that don't find the cost to be outrageous, especially when they go wholesale. Maybe you shoudl bring a price comparison sheet to your drop off/pick up. That might help some. Its really easy to sell because it is sooooooooo awesome!!


I have a copy if you'd like one. Good luck in your decisions! Arbonne is a great company and I know you will be happy if you chose it. There is so much support it is unbelievable!


Take care


Michele

The kit will last 4 - 6 months. Let's say yours lasts 5 months, at the wholesale price of $177, that's about $35 per month! Not bad price at all!

SOmething I do at classes is while we are doing the facial or handcial, I pop thebottom of one of the bottles off. I tell them that they have just seen the concentrated amount of product they used versus how much is really in there. I then say that typically the products can last 4-6 months and if theirs lasts 6 months, its only about $29 per month at consultant cost. I ask what other quality products they could pay $29 a month for an entire system. I joke that I know it won't be the top shelf product that we offer but even the lower quality systems cost more. I do the same thing at a pick up.


I asked a friend the other day, "If you could have healthier skin & erase some of those lines for $29 a month, would you take advantage of it?" She said "Without a doubt!"


Of course I do point out that they will also benefit from receiving my 35% discount on EVERY other product we offer as well.Edited by: Kiana's Mom
