Currently based in Johnstown, Ohio, the Thirty One network marketing company has more than 10,000 consultants throughout the United States. If you are thinking about starting your own home-based business. You are not alone.
Why is the multi-level marketing industry attracting so many new people? Some people begin after they have been laid off their jobs. Others need more income on top of what they make at their full-time jobs. Others begin as a hobby. Whatever the reason, the fact is that the direct sales industry has grown by leaps and bounds over the last several years.
People decide to start a multi-level marketing business for several reasons. First, the start-up cost is very low when compared to the start-up costs of a brick-and-mortar building. Second, the schedule is completely flexible. This allows business owners to meet family obligations without having to ask the boss for permission to take time off of work. Third, there are no income limits in a direct sales business.
An example of a direct sales company that has a low starting cost is Thirty One. At $150 and up, the cost is a tiny percentage of the thousands of dollars needed to start any other kind of business. Right now the company is offering a $99 rebate on all starter kits for new consultants.
Consultants earn 25% commission on all of their sales. On top of this, some consultants can quality for bonuses and other rewards. No wonder the company is growing with more new consultants each day. Each consultant that sponsors those new consultants earns residual income from the sales that their downline consultants make. Creating your own team through sponsoring other consultants is an excellent way to increase your income.
As a consultant, the work atmosphere is casual -- simply show the catalog to friends and family and have a party. Party hostesses earn half-price items and other gifts. They can have a party in their homes, a party to go or a catalog party in-person or online. It is very easy for today's hostesses to incorporate a party into their busy lives. Even the party invitations can be sent through email.
Selling is very low-pressure and relaxed. Once people see how well-made the line of soft-sided purses, beach totes, and organizers are, as well as the wide variety of patterns and styles that the products come in, most want to buy. Personalization is an option that many people find very appealing, particularly on the company's line of teen and child products. Not only are the products well made and personally embroidered, the customers appreciate the good value for the money.
If you are thinking about starting a home business in direct sales, you owe it to yourself to consider Thirty One. This faith-based company is committed to supporting and encouraging women by providing an opportunity to take control of their personal and financial lives. As a consultant, you can be proud of your own direct sales business that markets beautiful, fairly priced bags, totes, stationary and many other fun products.
