DO YOU WANT A $33,000 A YEAR INCREASE???

Take a look at these numbers!  Breaking things down really makes a difference, doesnt it?  Even working on a very part time basis of only one selling appointment per week, you can achieve an excellent income.  We will base appointments on the average of $200 per appointment that is selling two basic skin care sets and miscellaneous glamour.    Then well base the reorder business on the assumption that your customers will reorder an average of $10 per month very conservative, right?

OPTION 3 THREE APPOINTMENTS PER WEEK

$200 X 3 = $600 Weekly Sales

$600 x 50 Weeks= $30,000 per year Retail

300 New Basic Customers

                        (6 new Basic Customers x 50 weeks

                        = 300 new reorder customers per year)

300 Reorders x $120 per year ....= $36,000 per year Reorders

                                                                                    ______________________

                                                                               = $66,000 Retail Sales

                                                                               = $33,000 Your 50% Profit

OPTION 2 TWO SELLING APPOINTMENTS PER WEEK

$200 X 2 = $400 Weekly Sales

$400 x 50  Weeks .= $20,000 per year Retail

200 New Basic Customers

                        (4 new Basic Customers x 50 weeks

                        = 200 new reorder customers per year)

200 Reorders x $120 per year = $24,000 per year Reorders

                                                                                    ______________________
