Ways To Save For Your Direct Sales Starter Kit
When I first thought about joining a direct sales company, I wanted to make sure I was starting the adventure debt free and with zero risks.
Below, I’ve listed 4 ways to save for your direct sales starter kit. Using these tips, you will be able to save enough money to cover the entire cost! Also, the commission you earn from your first sales will be income in your pocket!
Host a Party
Most direct sales companies now have a way for a hostess to earn rewards to be put towards the cost of the start up kit. With my jewelry direct sales company, they offer the option for the hostess to earn discounted and free jewelry or receive a discount off of the start up kit cost.
Find the direct sales company you are interested in and see if they have this same option.
Craigslist and Yard Sales
Do you have some old baby toys that are gathering dust?
Clothes from last season that won’t be worn?
Books you have read or sports equipment sitting idle in the garage?
Put these things to use!
Post an ad on Craigslist, put together a mini yard sale and earn most, if not all, the funds you need for your start up kit.
Online Surveys
This one may take a little time, but it is doable.
Sign up for a few opinion websites and in a few months, you should have enough to put towards your direct sales start up kit! Pinecone Research, 20|20 Panel, and Opinion Outpost are three of my favorite survey sites to use.
They are spam free, reliable, and you start earning cash right away.
The Starbucks Effect
Many of you have heard of the Starbucks effect.
It’s as simple as giving up one luxury item a week and putting that money you would have otherwise spent into an account to save up for your start up kit.
One small change can make a big difference later on.
Using one or all of these money saving tips can easily get you in the position to start your direct sales business debt free and risk-free.
I’d love to hear your own ideas on how you financed your direct sales start-up kit.
