doug02346 asked:


I am going to sell personal protection products and I want to have people sell at home parties for me, like Mary Kay, the old Tupperware way, cooking products, etc. I need to know how the finances work. At a party do I take orders there and have the customers pay then? Or do they pay when the product is delivered? How are commissions split?

    I do mary Kay and we are trained whether you carry inventory or not to take the money at the time of the order. some reps take half at the time of the order and the balance at delivery this is getting the cost up front and th commission at delivery. Hope this helps

    Personally I would require payment in full.

    Running home parties doesn’t come cheap when you consider entertainment costs and your time.

    I would much prefer to market my business online vs offline like the “old way”
