    Hi all,

    I am wanting to compile a list of companies that are good to work for,

    Many thanks

    I think you are supposed to edit your initial post to include the companies :)
  • Hi all, I too am involved in a direct selling business. My business is in Health and nutrition and I am an independent Distributor for Herbalife. I work from home around my children and started off very part time around a part time job. It suits me because I am passionate about what I do, I am able to help people to improve their health and I am a people person. I work hard, but the difference is, it is for myself. I used to work hard for somebody else and got paid very little, plus loads of aggro and stress. Life is too short. My advice is find something you enjoy, research the FACTS and not the hearsay. If you look hard enough, you can find something bad on anything!! Be realistic, there is no such thing as instant wealth!!

    Pinecone Research: http://www.pineconeresearch.com

    Pays £4 (direct to your PayPal account) for each completed survey.

    :money: I've been using Pineconeresearch for years now and it has always been the best and always paid me within 2 hours!!!

    £4 for 20mn survey = £8 hour!!!!!!!

    Well I do some survey sites - mostly just toluna and yougov, I signed up to lightspeed but after a week I still haven't had an email from then for anything, yet my partner has!

    For working from home, I signed up to Avon this week which I think if you have a large group of friends and family then you could easily make a bit of extra cash without my effort - if you do need to go round the houses of your allocated streets obviously a bit more work involved, you do need to buy your books, bags etc but I thought it would be worth doing because at the very least I can get stuff cheaper for myself even if I don't make much money from it, so would be saving a little.

    I also signed up for Kleeneze this week, there is a big inital outlay, but your books last 6 months, they don't change the content every month, so if you can get out an about delivering/collecting them you could easily do 400 houses+ a week, making quite a bit of money even taking into account all your costs for your books, bags etc, and you can deliver the books where-ever you want, you aren't given an area. This means you find out where your best customers are, but it does mean you could be in competition with other Kleeneze people and of course Betterware.

    We did look into Betterware, as it sounded the best with no charge for books, but for our area they haven't got a manager yet so they couldn't take us on, and can't give us a time-scale- we phoned last week and haven't heard anything yet. I think though if there was a person in your area that Betterware would be worth doing, as you are given a large terrority of your own, and you don't pay for the books, and if you didn't make a huge amount then at least you could look at it from the point of view of being paid a little for taking exercise!
