WAHM Forums

Howdy All,


I've been a lurker and decided to come out of hiding. I'm looking for a new company. Currently I am with AVON& Tupperware. AVON is going great, but I'm looking for more people contact & some Instant gratification with Party sales. I used to do great withTW, yetover the past 5 years, this past year everything has gone down hill& I can't seem to do much, I love the products but my passion of pushing the products is going. I've tried and tried, so now I'm looking to put my energy into something new.


I'm pretty open to Anything, I would like something to do parties with. With Sept. Here I know that it's the time to start and go in with a bang. I can really be passionate about anything if the company is a good one and their are tangable products to sell.


I currently don't have children (working on infer. Problems) but Have 7 Fur Babies! So I have more energy to but into a new biz now and get it off the ground.


Sorry for the long post! Here are some questions I have:


What's your Company, and Why you love it?


How Much is the Kit? (lower the cost the better)


How much is Commission?


Monthly/Quarterly Quotas?


Company Support/Team Meeting/Conventions?


Any bonus's for August/September Sign ups!


Inventory (I don't mind Inventory)?


Can you sell online? Website, How much? Ebay?


I have more indetail questions I will ask per company LOL


Sorry For the Long Post PM me, Post, E-mail me. Send me all the information you can. I love learning about new companies and can't wait to get started.

What's your Company, and Why you love it? Southern Living at HOME! I love it because I enjoy shopping for my home. I spend moneyon my home before I do on clothes or other things, so it was a good fit for me. I am by no means an expert decorator but I love helping women make their homes more beautiful.


How Much is the Kit? (lower the cost the better) Our Kit is $199 and right now there is a Super Starter Kit valued at $700 instead of the regular $500. HUGE deal! I put the link so you can see the Super Starter Kit.


http://www.southernlivingathome.com/pdf/2006_super_starter_k it_fall.pdf (http://www.southernlivingathome.com/pdf/2006_super_starter_kit_fall.pdf)


How much is Commission? 25% on your retail sales. Up to 10% on your team.


Monthly/Quarterly Quotas? No quotas. If you decide to take some time off, you never lose your team or downline or title. If you want to earn a royalty check on your downline, you must be "Active" which is selling $500 in a given month. (About 1 party)


Company Support/Team Meeting/Conventions? Oh YEAH! Love the support. There are team meetings going on all around the country, plus corporate staff holds regional meetings throughout the year. We have a BIG national training day coming up Sept. 16th and then our Kickoffs in January (Held throughout the country) Then our first Northern Convention in Indy next summer.


Any bonus's for August/September Sign ups! I included that in a previous question. Super Starter Kit. $199 is the price for our kit, but during Aug and Sept you receive an extra $200 in products.


Inventory (I don't mind Inventory)? No inventory. We carry our kits to shows and all products are delivered to the hostess.


Can you sell online? Website, How much? Ebay? We have corporate made websites (Cloned sites) which have catalogs online. Customers can shop online once you set up a party on your website. Ebay is against our consultant agreements and SLAH monitors Ebay and will terminate consultants selling.


You can visit my website which has a FAQ section and other great information. The link is in my signature.


Good luck!
