Q. What is a purse party?
A. A purse party is when a group of women get together to shop for purses and wallets. There is a consultant to provide the purses, wallets and fashion tips. There is a hostess to provide the location and guest list. There are guests that shop and have fun with the hostess and consultant.
Q. How much money can I make as a Purse Consultant?
A. That is totally up to you. The more parties that you have, the more money that you will make. You will receive a percentage of your total sales from each party.
Q. Do I have to carry inventory?
A. That is up to you. Do you want to carry a small sampling and have people order online, or carry inventory and have guests buy the night of the party and be able to take their purchases home with them. Most guests love to see, touch, and feel the purses, then they decide they want to buy, that night, because they are excited. This also means they want to buy more. What is great is that you can get the sampling package and slowly increase your inventory as you find out what your hostess and her guests want.
Q. Do I have to make deliveries?
A. No. All purchases will be shipped to the hostess, along with gift bags, for her to deliver to her guests. Or purchases will be shipped to guests who ordered on the website through an online party.

A. You get paid the day of the home party or when it closes. So a Party a Day = a Pay Day! If you have an online party, then you are paid when the party closes.
