I used to do them :)
You start of with recieving about 500 pounds worth of kit. For this you pay 3.50 a week until you have banked a certain amount.
To start with you have to have 6 parties booked into your line up. You have to have 6 per every 6 weeks. This can bee either one a week, or you can spread them around as you wish.
After you have done the party you place your order. You pay 30% less than the customer, so make make 30% of the sales profit. But out of this you have to take the hostesses 10% discount so you really take home 27%
ie - 27 pound for every 100 sales.
On top of this you get to keep your raffle money. This can be quite profitable. I used to take a 30 pound raffle.
On average, my sales from a party were around 300 pound so I was taking home about 120 pound a night (inc raffle)
You have to attend a team meeting once a month, but we had fun at ours so that was ok :)
You can get parties easily by starting off with what they call the FRAN system (Friends, Relatives, Associates, Neighbours) and also by putting up leaflets in hair dressers and stuff.
Anything else you want to know just ask :)
I really enjoyed it.
