hi ladies,


Ive been mulling over joining TBS@H for quite a while now.

JennyJewell, do you know any managers that are close to me? I live in Shropshire. Maybe you could ask them to give me a call please?

id rather sign up with someone than enter the details via the site and not hear anything!

Cheeky i know sorry hun!

Also, can you possibly tell me how much the brochures are? id like to do a few drops to neighbours and family and friends as well as parties and another cheeky favour! any chance you could pm me with whats in the £40 starter kit?

I really appreciate it

Hi **dancingbutterfly**
It's not cheeky at all lovely I know a really lovely lady, I'm not sure how close she is to you, (geography really wasn't my thing when I was in school,lol), but I will send her a message anyway Her name is Mel and she really is a lovely, helpful, supportive lady Where you live doesn't matter too much but it is nice to have a manager close to you - havin said that some of my best managers with different companies have lived in England whereas I live in Wales,lol! Mel lives in England and has been my manager - I can honestly recommend her, she's an absolute star

I've been lurking on this particular thread for a while and love The Body Shop products - ever since i've suffered with bad skin The Body Shop has been my saviour

I've just a few questions...

1. Do I have to do parties - the reason I ask is that at the moment I do not have access to a car so would really on be available to do very local parties at friends etc (this is something that I am needing the extra income from The Body Shop to fund ), is it possible to just hand the brochures to work colleagues, friends and family etc? or would I need to host parties? I work in a hospital so I know that I could probably generate a lot of business by using this method.

2. How soon can I get started once ordering and receiving the kit? Would my regional manager come to visit me or is this done via email/phone if there is not one close to me in my area?

3. Would I be allowed to promote products/parties online such as setting up a local Facebook group?

Any help or advice is very much appreciated

Hi Jen,

many thanks for that Gill37 has very kindly sent me loads of info about pamper pack and general startup.

So if you could let Mel know to contact me that would be great! i'll pm you my details.

I look forward to bombarding you all with questions and getting ready for christmas parties!

Hi

To answer your questions
1) yes you can just do catalogues. There is an offer at the moment where you can spend £40 to buy the pamper kit - which includes catalogues - and you do not need to have parties booked. You can work it like Avon if you wish.

2) You can start as soon as you get the kit. TBH the products sell themselves so if you are just handing out the brochures then you don't have to know about each product in detail or which product would suit which skin type etc. Depending on who you chose to sign up with, your manager might not live near you anyway so you would just chat over the phone with them.

3) yes others have set up facebook pages - have a look in facebook under TBSAH and you will see others have their own FB pages.

I've probably missed it - but is there an easy to follow FAQ on this?

In a word - no. The main points are:

It costs £40 for the pamper kit.
The options for partying are:
OPTION 1

Use the Pamper Kit to demonstrate within the home environment to friends and family. e.g. your friends and family invite people to their home and you go along and demonstrate the products to them and let them "try before they buy". For this you will receive 25% commission on everything that is sold on the night of the party (less a few £'s expenses). The Host can take advantage of our fabulous "Host Reward Programme (attached). This is the most profitable option for you as from an average "party" you can earn between £50-£60 for only a few hours work.


OPTION 2

Use the Pamper Kit and catalogues to generate regular orders from various workplaces/offices/friends & family. These are only a few examples of where you can generate sales using this option but I am sure you can think of lots more opportunities . If you decide on this option then like option 1 you will get 25% commission on every order placed (less a few £'s expenses). YOU can take advantage of the Host Reward Programme and receive the FREE and 70% discount (if eligible).

OPTION 3

Is to use a mixture of options 1 and 2 and do a bit of both ; Home demonstrations and selling to various workplaces/friends family etc on a weekly/monthly basis.

OPTION 4
Buy the kit - which includes brochures and just distribute the brochures to whoever you like - you dont need to have any parties booked (just like Avon).

You need to have sales on £150 over a 3 month rolling period otherwise your account will be shut down. So even if you have parties lined up and they cancel you can still keep your account as long as you have sales (thru whichever option you choose).


Does this help you?
