Hi There
To answer you questions
1. The starter kit is different from "fast start" . The starter kits contains about £300 worth of products and comes in two large boxes . It contains amongst other things , tealights , votives ( 8 boxes , including 6 boxes that you give to your first 6 hostess's ) , snuffer, global fusion Hurricane , tealight tree , wax filled tin , votive holders , a savannah sunrise tealight holder etc etc , The kit also conatins a driary , order forms , pamphlets, invitations and a comprehensive guide on how to get started .
"Fast start" and "bright start" are programmes of extra rewards you can get if you qualify in your first business month by doing £800 of sales , extra goodies can be earned by bonusing in your 1st , 2nd and 3rd business months . "Fast start" is if you hold 6 partys of £165 plus one booking in your first 3 weeks . PartyLite offer these rewards to get you business off to a flying start.
"sponsers" are people who also want to become consultants
The gifts that the hostess's get are called "booking " gifts . When 2 or more partys booked from her show hold . The hostess gets a booking gift . These are highlighted on page 3 of the partylite brochure
Hope this answers your questions0 -
Right in the kit you get:
Antique Brass Snuffer (RRP £10.25)
Global Fusion Hurricane (RRP £56.70)
Universal Tealight Tree (RRP £7.75)
Sabor Isleno Aroma Melts Warmer (RRP £17.55)
Golden Pear Tealight Tree (RRP £44.95)
Antique Bronze Holder (RRP £9.95)
Fresh Home Grapefruit Fresh Hand Wash & Lotion Set (RRP £19.95)
Essentials Votive/Taper Holders (3) (RRP £17.55)
Savannah Sunrise Giraffe Tealight Holder (RRP £15.60)
Couture Votive Pair (RRP £15.60)
Iced Snowberries Decorative Tin (RRP £11.65)
Apple Orchard Tealights (12) (RRP £6.80)
Apple Orchard Aroma Melts (4) (RRP £7.95)
Raspberry & Thyme Votives (6) (RRP £5.85)
Holiday Spices Tealights (12) (RRP £6.80)
Bird of Paradise Votives (6) (RRP £5.85)
Mulberry Candle Refill (RRP £7.95)
6" Ivory Tapers (6) (RRP £7.30)
Cranberry Delight Tri-Glow Reed Diffuser (RRP £24.40)
So all that comes to £300.40 if my adding up is right
Plus Six Bonus boxes of votives to give to your first six hostesses! (These would be worth another £35.10)
Then you also get 50 catalogues, order forms and all the other literature you will need.0 -
Thanks Cheeky , i couldnt remember exactly what was in the kit lol0

Nor could I when I wrote my first reply to the questions...so I went to double check. Its quite a lot really.0

Not bad really , when you consider how much it would cost seperately. If you add the feebies new starters can get from bright start it adds up to quite a lot. Technically the kit costs £60 , because you dont start earning until £300 of sales is reached 20% of £300 = £60 ,( still excellent value though). At least it doesn't have to be paid up front which a lot of other companies make you do .0

Yes this is something I always tell my new starts! It such a fantastic reason to join partylite and the reason I joined in the first place. I couldnt afford to pay for any kit up front. Plus I love candles full stop! I always say use the kit inbetween parties to as you will be able to sell it better if you use and know the products yourself.
I am a self confessed Partylite adict lol...0 -
Ha ha , I know what you mean . My house is full of PartyLite . I often joke that you can smell my house from the end of the close. I always light a candle too when I'm cooking because they get rid of any cooking smells especially smoked fish. I think to be a sucessful consultant you have to absolutely love the products you sell. I know so many people once they get used to the candles would never burn anything else.0

I so agree with that!
I saw some Yankee things the other day and just thought how cheap (and tacky) they look in comparison. Although they are a lot cheaper and better know than Partylite, annoyingly!0 -

Ever tried to burn a Yankee candle? I burnt one as an experiment against a partylite mini barrel . The yankee one was covered in soot around the rim of the jar and didnt last as long . Ive tried to find wax as good as PartyLite but never found any as good . Gold Canyon candles are meant to be good but they are more expensive and don't have the range of smells that PartyLite ones do0 -
How do we make Partylite more popular than Yankee??!!

We need a slot on QVC!0
