I'm interested in part time work that i can do at home. I keep seeing arbonne consultants when ever people are seeking employment. Can you just tell me in a nut shell if this involves pushing products on people, after you sell it to your family and friends then what? I am not a good sales person, but the sucess stories are ever so appealing. Don't you have to invest about $400 to but the products?

What can I do next?

A. - yes, this involves pushing products on people. You only make commission on what you sold. It also involves recruiting new sales people to be under you - and that's how you rise through the ranks to earn really good money, because you end up getting a percentage of all those under you. (so to get to the next level, you have to sell X dollars in a month, and your team has to sell X dollars combined, and you have to have X number of people under you, etc. - each rank usually comes with a new commission percentage schedule. So eventually, if you're good, you will get very big checks based on other people's sales. But it's tough to do this and requires a lot of hours cultivating clientele and looking for leads - hence, why so many post here)

If you are not a personality that enjoys selling & pushing products - don't even consider becoming a consultant for any direct-sale company, not just Arbonne. You will end up being disappointed and feel bad and will have probably wasted some money. If you love the products, though, and just want to get a good discount and have a wide circle of friends & family, then absolutely you can get in it - but you'll never make the big bucks.

Arbonne does have excellent products - but they are pretty expensive, so you have to really sell the whole benefit of the company, the ingredients, the lifestyle, etc. because paying $50 for lotion is insane unless you believe all the hyperbole around its special powers.

And please - no flaming from all Arbonne and other direct-sales reps out there. She asked how you make money. I am not knocking Arbonne (I am a pretty loyal customer), and I have been a direct-sales rep for several companies for different reasons and am very aware of exactly what it takes to make good money at it. It's not everyone's cup of tea.

I just started selling Arbonne products and the best thing I found is its not really pushing the products on people. For $29 you can sign up. After the sign up if you get people to sign up underneath you for the same start up fee. Then you make money off the people under you buying stuff. The wonderful part of Arbonne is that you use these types of products everyday.
If your interested, the lady I signed up under is throwing a start up party for me. You can come and see the products and hear from them how it works. Let me know if you want to attend, she lives in Keller.

Arbonne is a great company, you have you own hours and you work as hard as you want to get what you want. I just started and believe me I'm not a great sales person either but I have a great team, that supports me and doesn't leave me to do it by myself. Check out the website arbonne.com or you can shoot me an email ____@____.com and I can let you know some more. We have trainings and confrence calls as well, maybe you would like to join me one day and see it for yourself and see what the biz has to offer, I was skeptical when I first heard about it, buy I have faith and the people I work with are excellent. Have a blessed day and hope to hear from you soon.

Hi A.,

I just signed up. I only did it because I got a sample pack of the RE9 and it's really good. Better than all the expensive stuff I have tried in the past. For me, all my friends and family talk about stuff they have tried that works and they will go and try it. I've done a lot of research on Arbonne and from what I have read, most of the people who try it really love it. So personally, I got a bunch of sample packs and am going to go the route of giving them to people to try themselves. I have never joined anything like this because everything I have tried, I really didn't like enough to tell everyone about...

If you have any questions, let me know.
Thanks!
