Parties where you sell things
Sometimes my boss and I sit around and try to come up with ways to make more money. Yesterday we thought Etsy was a good idea. Today we started talking about all these parties you can have where you sell things. I never knew about half of these.
- Pampered Chef
- Tastefully Simple
- Even Dove Chocolates
- There are custom handbags. (Made nearby in Troy)
- And the idea that started them all: Tupperware.
- The only one that actually seems like a good idea to me is Avon, because that is actually not a party and just a catalog. Still, there is something a little wrong about "Hi, I'm your friend - buy some eyeliner?!"
I had a coworker that did one of these things on the side. She sold Silpada jewelry. I went to one of the parties at her house, and it wasn't too bad. It was mostly a regular social gathering, but there was a table of jewelry set up off to one side that we could look at if we wanted. I did end up buying a pair of earrings; it was partly out of guilt and partly because I liked them.
