Another thing, while it's on my mind... for anyone interested in getting into direct selling, definitely keep in mind that a goal of yours should be residual income. You don't want to invest money into something that's going to be a "flash in the pan". People go crazy at first with companies like Origami Owl, and once someone has purchased a locket (and they are super cute!) they won't need another. You are always trying to find new people to sell to, and eventually everyone has one and they lose their appeal. What do you do then? With my company, I'm creating loyal customers that love what the products do for their skin - and they will continue to buy. And healthy skin will not lose it's appeal over time. I'm sure it's possible to be successful with jewelry companies that are continuously adding new items and staying current. But for the companies that don't have any way to stay fresh...I just don't see how someone can make a reliable income once the interest has died down.
