I've tried a few at home businesses, but always struggled to push sales on expensive products. Now I'm doing SendOutCards and loving it! The company allows you to create custom greeting cards online, then type in an address and a PHYSICAL card will be printed in the factory in Salt Lake City and mail to the address you gave with a real stamp and your return address on the envelope, all for between $.62-$1.24 wholesale, or $.98-$1.96 retail plus a regular 1st class stamp. You can even design your own card with photographs and captions with many different layout options. You even have the option of letting the company create a font in your handwriting and 4 signatures for an extra personal touch. There's a cool contact manager that reminds you of important dates, and you can even design a card today and schedule it to mail up to a year from now on the date you designate. The userface is easy once you get going and really convenient, making card sending enjoyable.
They have a very low start up cost of $398 (even a way to start for free until you earn enough to buy your distributorship), and high payout ($120 or more on purchase of a $298 or $398 package plus residual income), plus a low monthly commitment of only $15.50 or $31 that you can always pause if life throws you curve balls and start up again later without loosing your customers and distributors as long as you maintain your annual distributorship for $35. (I tried one company that required nearly $3800 of product to be purchased at one time once a year and if you missed it, you lost your entire downline. It was a great company but hard to maintain unless you built a strong enough network in the beginning.)
The best part for me, though, is how super easy it is to show people because all you do is set up a FREE GIFT ACCOUNT that lets them try 1-3 cards (your choice on this) to let them see for themselves if it's something they want to do. And they don't even need a checking account or credit card for the gift account, so it's really no obligation for them to try it out. If you're interested you can email me at ____@____.com or message me on this forum, or just go to www.SendACardOnMe.com, click on the blue banner at the top, and try 2 cards FREE.
Even if you don't choose it as your home business, it's AWESOME for follow-up with whatever business you choose. You can use it for follow-ups or just to remember customer's/distributors birthdays or let them know you're thinking about them. Most people are thrilled to get a heartfelt card in the mail and you'll stick out in their minds as someone who cares.
