Private Quarters are a direct sales company that providing something pretty unique to the industry and that is high quality bed and bath linens, such as towels, duvets, sheets, pillows etc.... Not something often seen in this industry.
Two business masters, Jeff Stroud and Wayne Selness formed the company back in 2004. Since then the company has actually done pretty well. Whilst other companies have shown a decrease in tough economic times, Private Quarters actually showed continually rising profits.
They are based in California and have a 50,000 square foot plant where they manufacture and store their products. When they started they only had a very small factory.
If you are going to get involved with this business then to effectively sell the products you will have to take on a hands on, traditional approach. Simply due to the nature of these products people want to see and feel them. It's unlikely you can set up a website and make a lot of sales, this really is going to work better with the more personal and traditional touch.
The company is very big on home parties as the selling method. In fact it's the only method they mention on their website, they also say that they will give you free products on purchases to help you along with your home parties.
When it comes to average earnings, Private Quarters is actually at the stop of the stack. Based on their figures, an average of two home parties a week yields an income of approximately $2,500, which from doing essentially what is just 2 presentations is good.
There is also no requirements to store products yourself as orders are sent out from the companies plant.
How will you be paid?
There is an opportunity to earn retail income (40%) and also residual from your teams efforts (11%). The beauty is of course in the residual aspect of this comp plan, so you should definitely aim to sponsor as many people under you as possible. If you want to take things to the next level and can work your way up to a Director then you will be rewarded with extra bonuses, such as the cash and generation bonus. There are also incentives of paid holidays for you and your family.
When you are ready to get stared in the PQ business opportunity you will need to pay $199 for your starter kit. This will give you some product and also the others things that you need to get your business up and running. You'll have your own company website as well which will enable you to take orders online..
If you are into this type of product and also don't mind doing home parties then you can do well with this. You can however make good use of the internet to generate leads and find other people that would be interested in starting their own Private Quarters business.
