I'm Looking For A Company Like Partylite, Avon Etc That I Can Sell Mostly Online

Can anyone help please?

I want to do a job on the side for extra cash. But I have done Ann Summer's before and just wasn't confident enough to do parties. Is there a company anyone can recommend who would allow me to sell their products online and earn commision that way? I would also sell using word of mouth and Facebook.
I am good with the internet, so it would be ideal really once I get a better connection.

Silverline Jewellery look good, I have requested information. I don't suppose anyone know if they allow you to sell online INSTEAD of doing parties?

Also, I cannot afford to pay any sort of upfront fee.

Thank you in advance. I hope my post makes sense lol.

  • PS. Just wanted to add that I cannot do Avon as a woman over the road from me is a lovely Avon Rep and covers a wide area :) Thanks.

    Hi Monstermunch

    I can't say for the others, but Partylite forbids consultants to sell current stock online. It's because they're purely a direct-selling company and selling online would be virtually the same as selling through a real shop.
  • Liz is the only option for Partylite selling through parties then?

    As I said yesterday there are various options for selling through partylite ie catalogues through doors, fetes, fairs, word of mouth, selling to friends and family, send people books to do their own 'book parties' etc. The only place you really cant sell is online. I think you would find also that the format of a partylite party and an ann summers one are completely different. I have been to many ann summers parties but would not have the confidence to do them myself. However partylite I do. I think if you are looking for something purely online something like FM perfumes might allow you to sell online, I cant remember exactly however there are start up costs. Or how about something like Betterware which is only catalogues through doors and unlike Avon and Kleeneze you do not pay for books
  • Cheeky, could you send me prices of what customers pay please? Thank you for the email this morning.

    I do Kleeneze which has always earned me enough each month to pay the bills etc, and with that you can also do Cabouchon jewellery parties - but you are NOT allowed to sell Kleeneze products online.

    Try international phone calls with Just-Dial . I have done this for some time and started my own website. Promoted it by getting just-dial to print phone cards for me (FOC) and distributing door-to-door. I am a Just-Dial agent but have not posted my affiliate link as that is not allowed here. It is free to join and the marketing support you get is fantastic, except you have to ask for it. They will print your phone cards for you to your own design at no cost and have great tools to put on your website. The great thing is that you don't have to collect any money from your customers. They pay through their phone bill and you get a commission paid to you from Just-Dial.
    In my first month I earned just 28p commission but after a couple of months this rose to £25 a month. After 2 years it peaked at £300 a month. I often wonder how many people would have given up after the first month. No party plans, no selling, you don't even to talk to anyone if you don't want to and it's free to start and free to run. And best of all it actually works.

    Hi monstermunch08
    I became a distributor for a company called Wikaniko a couple of months ago.
    Its based around eco friendly products - household and personal products and there are around 700 to sell at the moment.

    You can build a business and sell products online through your own website, or use catalogues or do it many other ways.
    The company give you online training and a wonderful website of your own.
    There is a small start up fee to cover this, but it is small.

    I think the green movement is gathering momentum as we all try to do our bit for the planet and it`s a good time to get in on an opportunity like this.
