Thoughts on them? I enjoy some of them but others seem pretty gimmicky. I've been debating signing up to sell Thirty One Gifts. I really like the totes and bags they have. But I'm not sure I would be a great salesperson. It would be a nice way to make additional money and get out of the house. But I have no clue how to get people to host a party. Do I ask them? I feel like that would be rude. See, feeling bad about approaching people makes me think I wouldn't be a great salesperson.
Re: Direct Sales?
I just really hesitate since I know I'm not a "salesperson".
Myself, I didn't like how you're expected to continuously try to turn your friends/family into customers nor the fact that I didn't work for the company in a W-2 employee type fashion. If you're honest about your income, all of it should be reported on a tax form in some form. Some claim it on their personal taxes, others form a business entity and do it there. There's pluses and minuses to each.
The one recommendation I have seen passed on by people I know are successful is to find a consumable product (ie. make-up, candles, etc) as that will bring you repeat customers as they use up their supply.
You know, I'm surprised nobody is doing k-cups like this....lol
I love you guys!! I knew I could share and get honest opinions. And you didn't laugh at me. Well if you did, you didn't do it on here.
