Does anyone know of any other parties like Mary Kay, Sex Parties, Home and Garden etc
tupperware, candle lite, home interior, avon, mary kay, pampered chef, lingerie, botox, hair parties, sex toy parties, baby (stuff) parties, swap (stuff) parties... there's loads of them just pick an item and there's a party for it
Why not find sources for consumable products that people either want or need ... like printer cartridges. There's no reason for people to buy OEM cartridges from Best Buy or Circuit City (do you know how many thousands of dollars are spent on them?) when you can get get reman cartridges for a few bucks and make a few bucks selling to individuals and businesses without holding alot of inventory?? Shop around for pricing and reputable companies that offer these lower priced alternatives to name brand supplies. It's not always about price. If you can offer the right product at the right price at the right time customers will find you. Once you have the inkjet business, look for other products that you can add on to increase sales... recordable CDs, surge protectors, paper, etc. You dont have to do home parties if you don't want to. Selling is a matter of finding a need in the area and filling it by being the best at it... quality products, reputation, on time delivery, fair pricing (not always lowest), branding, etc.
Have you thought of the Pampered chef, or Discovery toys. I sell MK, but have thought about these too. Good Luck and if you are interested in these other Parties type sales, I know a couple of people who sell these products.
Nutrimetics is always lots of fun. They do cosmetics as well as a great range of skincare. The host gets pampered by the Nutrimetcis rep while everyone else also gets to participate in indulging in facials, hand foot treatments or make overs. Add a couple of bottles of wine or champagne, a few nibblies and you have a great girls night/day in..
