    Hi FF

    No you just pay tax on your personal cut from the sales less any allowable deductions of course.

    Good idea to register with HMRC if you have not already done so.

    By the way your not allowed to use this site to recruit people its against site rules.;)

    You can advertise on somewhere like www.stallfinder.com for a small fee to get more bookings.

    Hi all

    I am seriously considering doing party plan, I grew up at these parties in the 80s, I have 3 companies in mind but can't make up my mind which one to try.

    The reason for my post is I live in Central Scotland and I really don't know if I would get enough bookings, is there anyone in this region that does party plan and if there is are you succesful and get enough business.

    I would love to hear your thoughts and views.

    Thanks for reading.

    There are some Companies that allow other methods of retail as well as party plan so if you couldn't get many bookings you could supplement with brochures through doors, fetes, coffee mornings, dropping baskets of products to Businesses etc etc.
    The ones that spring to mind are Wikaniko who i'm with, Avon who do brochures and !!!!!!!! .

    Thanks Peterpan, really was considering Partylite I know I could probably get my first few parties really quickly through family and friends, but don't know if there is anyone in my area already doing this. I remember being at a party years ago and I love candles.
