Pros

You make 50%!!!! and you have untapped potential. you can make tour business anything that you would like it to be. You also have a powerful team of of women behind you rooting you along.

Cons

You have to find the right director. Not all directors are in it to help others. and if you are easily talked into things you may end up with wuite a it of inventory that you don't even need, just to satisfy your director. so alway have inner talks with yourself on what your true goals are.

Pros

Great personal growth experiences; enjoyed life lessons.

Cons

Company is excited for you while things are going good; not so much when not going so good. Lopsided opportunity for those without a commissioned National Sales Director and/or a motivated and productive Sales Director.

Pros

Great products, lots of tools to help you succeed, support from your director and others if you are able to take advantage of it, nice incentives if you are able to reach goals

Cons

Difficult to really make the business work unless you are willing and able to make a substantial investment (are told only have to purchase basic program to get started-can make it work with that but you don't look professional or successful handing out samples on cardboard), are strongly encouraged to have stock at all times & that is expensive and can create storage issues, must have the time & support to devote to working this business, always hustling.
