alot of these party type jobs you need to lay money out at first which is non refundable. which is a bit rubbish and a huge risk when you don't have much money... hence the extra/part time work! i know bodyshop home partys you did have to get 10friends to have partys... and just hope their friends then want partys and/or advertise and that's how it worked. everything is commision based isn't it? the way the world is right now, according to news reports nobody has any money at all, which wouldn't make for alot of commision

i personally don't think they sound worth while at all.

i know on the ann summers website they have a number you can phone for more info about them, i was interested when son was younger but the hassell just didn't seem worth it at all.

someone on my facebook used to do a.s and now does body shop. judging by the amount of messages and statuses asking people to book a party or go work with her there must be more to it

i guess the best thing to do is give it ago and work work work at it. but with a little one it's super hard to keep plowing away at something and not get a worthwhile return isn't it?

them hours spent with your lil one are moreworth while than like £30/£40 commision for slogging away aren't they?

If you are still keen I know that there is no financial layout with PartyLite as I was a rep with them for ages. It paid for a big holiday for us but that was before everything went a bit wrong. Mind, my friend still does it and she is making a small fortune.
