  • well I love the products, have someone coming over in 1/2 hour to talk me through the whole thing. Just wondered if people actually make money off these party things?

    I would'nt go to any of these parties, the products are overpriced and you are always obligated to buy something !!!

    The price of all the items are really expensive, people won't spend £100 at these parties which is what a lot of the items costs.

    There are smaller price items that people may feel obliged to buy, but you won't make much profit here.

    I looked into this one. Lovely, good quality products BUT massively over priced. Someone may buy the odd item, but certainly not regularly. I decided against it, as I thought you would have to cover a massive area to get enough parties. I also don't want to be working loads of evenings, so it wasn't for me.
    Still looking for the plot...... Anyone seen it???
  • Well I thought I would give it a gamble...
    I signed up while she was here. Currently dont know anyone in the area so finding parties will be hard but whats the worst that can happen - I dont make a fortune but get to meet lots of new people....

    Good luck. Hope it goes well for you. The one thing I thought of, was offering the local schools to be the 'hosts' as they could get the children's cookery items out of it for the school and could get you some customers. Let us know how you get on :)

    It may take you a while to get going in the New Year, nearly everyone i know will be on a massive cost cutting exercise ! Get as many parties in before Xmas as you can ! My friend has just started Jamie at Home, i found the stuff really expensive, i didn't buy anything. Slimming club consultants tend to do well after Xmas ! Can't imagine why !

    I have been to one of these parties. I found the stuff very expensive and most of it fancy replicas of what you already have in your kitchen.
