Question:

Other than avon, what can I sell?

by  |  earlier

0 LIKES UnLike

I would like to start a simple home business on the side. Not a get rich thing or anything. I don't know where to start. We already have someone at work that sells avon and arbonne, also home interior things, pampered chef, and stamps. Any ideas on something simple to sell? Maybe something with a catalog to pass around?

  2. I sell ink/toner for a company that handles all of the shipping and billing. All I have to do is get customers to buy from their website and they pay me 20% on what ever they buy. It doesn't pay a ton but it's super easy to make some extra cash especially if you know some people that use printer supplies.

  5. We are a newly retired couple who were looking for a work from home opportunity that was ethical and legitimate. Something we could be proud of doing and also help other people. We didn’t want a get rich quick or multi-level marketing scheme. We did however, want support and training. Well, we found what we were looking for and would like to share with you what it is that is changing our life.

  6. I remember a while back I was watching an entertainment show that had a segment about selling bags and purses from home - sorta the same set up as avon. You sign up and you become a distributer and you have in-home parties where you talk about 'em and sell 'em and get other friends signed up...but I can't remember what it's called.

    Also, I knew someone that sold candles and candle accessories in the same way but I also can't remember the company name. I'd google it or something.

  7. This depends on you

    What is your reason;

    Are you looking for something where someone can Mentor you?

    Are do you just want to process paperwork at home?

    What is your why?

    If you are just looking for income I suggest locating a job, you will not get rich, you may get laid off or fired but it will meet your immediate needs. Social Security who knows?

    If you are looking for something that can change your outcome consider this.

    Create a Small Business (S, C or LLC) you decide based on your financial and Tax Planning.

    Market and Network with people of Integrity and principle (refer someone to their business and likewise to yours)

    Create a business plan so you have a road map, this is important and will keep you focused.

    Remember not to flow your investments from your Business through a Corporation (they get taxed the hardest)

    Are you willing to take 20 minutes to review something or go to an presentation (ask questions) just to see if it makes sense to you?

    If so let me know what state and I will give you the information you need so you can decide.  And yes you can work from home!

    I even have an website where you can view from home, please feel free to share with friends.  Every 38 Associates will have a chance to win a (IPOD TOUCH) valued at $299 (1 out of 38 will be a winner).  While getting paid daily!

  8. Travel is something to seriously consider.

  9. I know a few different people in the telecommunications industry.  They save people money on all their telecommunication needs for both business and residential.  Their market is a little different then make up and candles and lotions and potions.  They market in local and long distance telephones, Internet, digital and video phones (you see the person live your talking to), they also market in Satellite TV and all the major cellular phone providers like Verizon, T-Mobile, AT&T, Sprint, Alltel, Nextel etc.  They save people money on services that they are already using and paying for each month, and can provide new services that people don't have.  One way they get paid is everytime these people pay their billings, you make a percentage every single month.  So it's not like the other businesses where you have to keep selling the products after the've boughten it.  Once you put someone on the service, you get paid over and over for it.  The companies give you a cut of their billings.  It's an incredible industry to get involved in.

    It's against yahoo to give out my web site, although that rule is very confusing because it says you can, so I'm giong to give you someone else's web site that has been involved in her own business for abuot seven years now.  She will be able to help you out with any questions you may have.

  10. Actually Yes! I have done Arbonne and Home Interior, but found that the market was saturated, so I was competing. That was hard, but then I found the Four Point Group which is a Team of mostly Stay At Home Moms, some Dads, who support, train and encourage each other. They partnered with a company that has a 23 year success record and is growning everyday. The awesome thing that I love the most about it, is that when I make my presentation once, that's it. You do your job once and you get paid monthly residuals on it. No chasing down people, trying to get them to order. No hoping that your going to make a pay check that month.  And it only grows as you work it. The start up is only $29. If you are interested in more information, just visit: www.thegreenzone.fourpointmoms.com .  There is no catch and it doesn't cost anything for detailed information. We want you to make a completely educated decision as if this opportunity is right for you. There's no obligations!

  12. Check out Prepaid Legal! I became an associate after benefitting from their services for years. I like it because I'm offering a service that most people need and can really benefit from. Basically it allows the average person affordable access to lawyers ($25 per month). Check out the links below.

  13. I personally sell Arbonne, but I don't think that would be a wise choice for you if someone at work already sells it (you don't want to burn bridges).

    However, a girl here at my work sells Tastefully Simple.  If is gourmet food.  She does really well.  She brings in samples for  people to try (everyone loves food!).  I don't know how much it costs to get started, but it seems like a great way to go.

    Just some advice, you should pick a product that is consumable.  Something like Tupperware or pampered chef, once a client has a product, they won't get that same product again.  But with Arbonne, Tastefully Simple, etc., when a client runs out of the product, they will contact you for more.

    Good luck with whatever decision you make.

  14. If you live in Georgia or Texas or know others that do this is a great company to make a great income and still do what you do now because you want to not because you have to.

  16. Dorabellsmom,

    Along with AVON Passion Parties offers similar products.  With a luxurious bath and body line plus a GREAT romanta therapy.  Yes I know Passion Parties has gotten the reputation of being a "s*x toy" company but we are so much more than that.  Passion Parties offers two different catalogs that can be passed around.  One that is "mild" with no adult only products and one thats a bit more "adult".  Lots of women have been able to become very succussful in the business with keeping 40% of their total sales as pure profit with very little investment.  You chose the amount of money you want to make and whether you want to do it full or part time or very part time.  If you have anymore questions feel free to e-mail me, kksammycat@yahoo.com or visit my site at http://www.batteriesnotincluded.yourpass...

  17. Mary Kay?  Usually appeals to many.  

    or find a product you really beleive in yourself and sell that.  

    i gather the new "in" thing since tupperware parties are actually women's tasers.  That culd be something to explore, depending on where you live.

  18. Take a look at my new website and let me know what you think about it. Let me know if this is something that you would like to sell for me. Thanks Dawn

  19. Hey check out this site www.liasophia.com\moniquesboutique.

    Blessings,

    Monique
