Ok, let's try this again...

2-3 sets means 2-3 full manicures or pedicures. You can do your fingers and your toes, and might have enough for your hands again, when you want to put on a fresh set. It all depends on how long your nails are.


Also, I don't think I saw the commission structures? Can you share the business plan on here?
I'd love to. So it's $99 to start plus shipping which turns out to $114. You get to pick out 3 sheets, and you'll get one more (their choice), plus a bunch of other stuff!

You make 30% off your retail commissions I can pm you or email you the chart.

You can also earn commission bonuses, product bonuses, and supply credits. Of course if you choose to build a team, you can earn even more.

What is the average sales party? The company ave is $350 a party. But I do a lot of personal one on one sales with friends and strangers. So I'll have a lot of $45 and $90 orders, and those add up!

What state are you in ? I am located in Hawaii.

I think these are so pretty. I don't really like being flashy and all but I do see you all have some conservative colors. Some people have expressed the same thing. Either it's a personal preference or they are restricted from wearing anything flashy or non-traditional at work. So I think our company is taking that into consideration for our next season. There are some classic and muted colors too like you said.


I use to get my nails done but it would chip off in like 1 or 2 days..I think there is something wron with my nails..It didn't do that before. I wonder if these will stay. My nail polish would chip off in 1-2 days too. That's why I love these!

I wondr if it is safe like no harmful chemicals..when I wash my face, I don't want any residue of whatever it's made from..you said it's like a film? I said film, but maybe a better way to describe it is vinyl. These are non-toxic, won't leave a harmful residue. Also, they are latex free.

How are others in general selling these? Many people are doing vendor shows right now since the company is new and it's great to get the name out there. Some are doing home parties, again this is a great way to talk with your customers and give them a chance to try on the nails. Others (like myself) are simply going out doing my regular day to day activities and selling to friends, and strangers that I bum into. You can also do online sales and fundraisers.

I know my daughter and sister would love this too. I bet they would! These make great Christmas gifts. Deadline for Christmas is coming up though, Dec the 15th!

Thanks. Thank you!

Default PS. Sorry, when I asked how are these selling

I didn't mean what different avenues, but are they selling well? Do you find it an easy sell? For those who have been doing it awhile, do you know what repeat orders are like? Thanks.

Oh ok, well I can answer that too. Some people are selling well, like a $1000 party. That's amazing. Some like me are selling more toward friends, and branching out. Each person has taken advantage of the Buy 3 get 1 FREE deal going on right now, so they are buying either $45 or $90 worth of nails. I find these pretty easy to sell as many women love getting their nails done. They see mine, and I love that my advertising is always with me and easy to see. Women see it and feel compelled to ask about them, they want them too! Then they get even more excited when they sell all the other designs as well.
These are not like the ones in the store. The ones in the store, I've tried are either "nail polish" that is on a sheet that you stick on your nail. Intresting, but these tend to chip just as fast as when you paint them yourself. Also, some of these, once you open up the package you must use it or it will dry out, so really it's one application. Others are stickers which the design scratches and fades in a few days. I have a picture of my nails where I put Jamberry shields on 4 of my nails and a store bought brand on one. I took a picture on the third day so you could see what happened. Unfortunetly I can't load it right now. I prob can email it though.
Overall, I think they are selling well even though they are pretty new to every area. The more people know about them, the more popular and in demand they will be. The best part is, all of your customers are walking, talking billboards for you. Make sure you ask them to refer people who ask them about it you or your website. Because, people will ask, and your customers will talk!
