Hello Everyone,


Thanks for answering my last question, I do think that I am going to join I just have a few more questions if you do not mind answering them...


1) As a member do you always get 50% off? If not, how much of a discount do you get when you purchase things for your customers?


2) How much do you pay for shipping, and do you make your customers pay that cost?


3) Has everyone made a profit? even to start? If not how long did it take you before you turned a profit?


4) Can you purchase the Spa Tools package for $25, even if you do not purchase another package besides the $99 one?


5) Is there anything else I should know before joining? Are there any restrictions or anything you wish you would have know before you started?


Thanks so much for your time! You are all very helpful! =)

1) As a member do you always get 50% off? If not, how much of a discount do you get when you purchase things for your customers? Here's the breakdown: If your retail order is $99.99 or less, your discount is 25%. $100-299, 30%. $300-499, 40%. $500-799, 45%. And $800+ your discount is 50%. It's important to note here that oftentimes, you will get a Unit Meeting code each month, which knocks an add'l 5% off your order. ETA: If you do purchase the sets they have available to order at BeautiU, you do receive a 55% discount for your next 60 days, no matter the order size. I did not do this, but I have still made a great profit.smileys/smiley2.gif</span>



2) How much do you pay for shipping, and do you make your customers pay that cost? Shipping is $14 for your first monthly order, and I personally never charge my clients for shipping. They LOVE it like that!smileys/smiley32.gif</span>



3) Has everyone made a profit? even to start? If not how long did it take you before you turned a profit? My first spa I made a $125 profit (after sales aids, my own product purchases, etc.) My next spa I made a $272 profit!!!!</span> Just one or two a week, and well, you clearly see the potential.</span>



4) Can you purchase the Spa Tools package for $25, even if you do not purchase another package besides the $99 one? No, you have to order the package from BeautiU in order to qualify for the $25 spa tools package.</span>



5) Is there anything else I should know before joining? Are there any restrictions or anything you wish you would have know before you started? There's nothing I wish I would've known up front. My upline was VERY honest and straightforward with me. That's one thing I love about BC. Their ethics are superior. My only regret? Not joining SOONER. But better late than never, and I am having the time of my LIFE with my business!!!!smileys/smiley17.gif

I can tell you that once you get going in BC, you'll never look back. I'm so grateful I found it! Or...that it found ME!smileys/smiley2.gif</span>

Also, if you become a VIP or above, you will get the 50% discount all the time. Just thought you may want to know that. VIP means that you have at least 4 recruits (new consultants).


I think that Jennifer answered everything else!

How do you recruit another, just by getting them to join as a member, or do they have to purchase something?

You get a new recruit when someone purchases the Ultimate Spa Set. ($250, $99 whatever the deal of the month is!)


The unit code only is available every other month. It usually entitles you to 50% off of a $300 or more order. Most unit codes are good on one order only. This month, if you order with the unit code, (by March 16) it will entitle you to 50% off any size order and as many orders as you want for the whole month of April!


You can get the spa tools pkg. with a $500 retail ($225 cost to you) order besides the $1,000 retail order at BeautiU. There is no $500 retail order opp. at BeautiU.


Hope that helps too!

Shipping costs are also based on your size order and the most you will be charged is $14. If you order again in the month, you pay a flat fee of $5.


It is your decision to charge shipping and handling to your clients. Some of us do and some of us don't. That is totally your decision!


As far as restrictions go: you can not sell at flea markets or garage sales. I would also stay away from e-bay.


To be a qualified consultant, you must place an order at sign up, beautiU or $1000 retail within your first 90 days. After that, a $100 retail order every 120 days to remain an active consultant.


Like all the others said: I love what I do! I can't imagine doing anything else...this has been the best decision I made!


Good luck!

I just wanted to say the potential for this business is amazing. I joined March of 2005, On April 1st, I am going into DIQ. It took me a few months after joining to get going, becuase of myself not the company.


My Director has been in for 2 1/2 years she made 60,000 last year and earned a Mustang to keep no matter what she does with BeautiControl. She works 3 Spas a week at 2 hour shifts. So, that is 6 hours a week outside her home and makes 60,000 a year!!


Her Director has been in for a little over 3 years and she also has a Mustang, and makes 12,000 a month.


They are great women, but they do not have anything more than I or you or your neighbors, or friends, have, they just stuck with it and worked their business.


BeautiControl has a great support system and you will find so many women that believe in you and will help you to achieve your goals.


Have a blessed day! If you sign up, let us know we are a great positivegroup of women and would be happy to help you succeed.

And like the others have pointed out, the $99 sign up is good from now thru April 30th--I joined at the full price of $250, but you just cannot BEAT $99 for all you receive when you sign up!!! Absolutely amazing.smileys/smiley32.gif

The best thing that would happen is, you could build an amazing, profitable business where YOU are the boss and YOU work when YOU want! The worst thing that could happen is you get the products you love at great discounts! You just can't go wrong. I'm biased, but I am totally hooked on BeautiControl!smileys/smiley17.gif
