FAQ’s

COMMISSION:    20% paid twice a month via check.  It is important that you don't focus solely on the percentage.  Rather, look at how much income you make (without expense) for a given amount of effort.  Because of our high show average and easy bookings, our consultants typically NET an average of $110 per show. 

Many Consultants were previously associated with companies offering 40% to 50% commission.
They will tell you the make far more with us at 20% because:

a)      there is no expense factor

b)      they can actually get the sales & bookings. 

What good is a high rate of commissions if you schedule is empty??

COST TO GET STARTED:  FREE!  We will send you a showcase (including merchandise display, all supplies, manuals, swatch book, etc) for only $20 shipping.  With your own first show of $250, you earn your showcase FREE.  If not, simply return showcase.  We are not in the business of selling showcases or merchandise to our sales team.

SHIPPING CHARGE: Flat $4.95 REGARDLESS of CUSTOMER / HOSTESS PURCHASE!! A customer can order 2 quilts, 5 blankets and 2 pillows and we ship for $4.95! In addition, a hostess also pays a total of only $4.95 to ship all of her benefits!  With many other companies it costs the hostess $15 to $20 just to ship her items!

SATURATION:  Wide open areas for individual & management development with our support!
