When I went on my interview I was told that I was guaranteed $300 week but I should make no less than $600/week. I was told that health insurance was available. I started working for the company to find that most people barely brought home $200/wk and I was only bringing $400/wk home. There was NO guarantee of anything! I was working 70 hours/wk! M-Sat and pushed to work on Sundays.insurance was available if I wanted to purchase it and we all know how expensive insurance is these days!
You had to be a favorite of the owner, Karen, or you got crappy events and since you work on 100% commission, it would make a HUGE difference, whether you know how to sell products or not! If you have kids, forget about this company too! Karen has very little tolerance for kids, no sympathy for you when you have to take day off due to your kids. So, if you were out sick ONE day, the next day or even week expect to have a bad event given to you! It's all about kissing butt to make it in this business!
Karen has had 1 failed attempt to open an outside office, which is how people get their own business. Now, after more than 1 year she supposedly is opening another office where other offices have opened 3 by now! She is horrible at money management.
Her business suave consists of at least 1-2 F words in a sentence. She yells at people and talks down to them to make them feel worthless! She talks degrading about people behind their back.
So the events, employees go to events that are supposedly already approved to set up outside and too many times the employees get to the site and are yelled at saying they are not welcomed, or kicked out of the site half way through the day. Then Karen expects the people to go to other businesses to make sure they sell at least $300 retail each day... If not, bad event the next day.
Employees get paid 35% commission of the retail sale; supposedly 20% goes back to the nonprofit. Karen is bringing in approx $1000 day for herself! She will tell her employees that's why you have to work hard to get to management, when she has employees who lose their home, can't pay their bills and finally catch on that the dream is a little less likely.in order to get to management one must recruit 5 people on their team, which is very hard! But if you don't do it, then there is apparently something wrong with YOU!
