I posted not long ago asking advice on Usborne.

Well I decided to go for it and have just put in my first order, I was really pleased to see people reactions to the books.

I can choose when I want to work, do all my orders on line if I like, have endless books to show my Children and am making some money!

If anyone wants any info on it feel free to cat me.

Can I just add, if you are interested do it this month.......you get double the amount of books in your starter kit, worth over £200

If you decide you don't want to sell, you keep them anyway. (is a vv low start up cost)

I am about to have a party at my own house.

I am going to put leaflets through the neighbours doors and give to friends to give to their friends!!

My Husband took the catalogue to work last week and got £70 worth of orders.

Do you know of any toddler groups. You may not get much sales from them but will build up your confidence.

I haven't done a party in another house yet. Just make sure you have some knowledge of the books and ordering etc At the end of the day you just display your books and if you want give a bit of info on some, sounds easy. I will be soooooo nervous!!!

Best of luck

Feel free to cat me, I havent long started myself and would love to be in contact with somebody to swap ideas!

sounds good! could you email me too? [email protected]

Do you have to have parties or can you just do it as a leaflet/catalogue and order form through the door?

Swiper - have you thought about Phoenix Cards? My friend does this and is doing really well - the cards and wrapping paper are lovely, cheaper than in the shops and everyone needs cards.
