Pros
Mostly cute Comfy Clothes for SAHMs, dresses and skirts for church, and some cute outfits that can be worn for office/work and then come home and strip down to leggings and an Irma or Tshirt for homey comfortable attire. I got swept into the dream of this company, and then quickly let down when I tried to sell it. and saw the quality on some of the clothing I received. Some of the shirts and Julia dresses are thin, See-through material, and leggings are soft, but some get holes in them after one wear. For $35, I don't want my shirts See-through from a company that advertises modest clothing. And the 48$ kimonos: We can get cute floral prints at Torrid, or Forever 21 for way less. *If you are good at networking & sales, yes, you can rock this business, as long as you get your inventory in a timely manner and not have to wait 3 weeks for it to get to you.
Cons
*They went from a couple thousand consultants last year, to 30,000+ within a year. the problem with adding so many consultants in a clothing business in this amount of time, is you have to build the factories and have the infrastructure in place to keep up with the demand. And not forget about QUALITY. Then keep making excuses for it. Like others have said: you get one or two "unicorn" (highly sought after) prints for every 30 or 40 ugly ones. *Too Many consultants relying too much on online sales, are oversaturating the online market *They call it your own business, but you have to sell it their way. *Their Audrey Payment system always has glitches with payments, doube/triple charging sometimes, and consultants' orders online disappearing for weeks at a time. *Everytime they do a special product launch, they have problems, i.e. orders disappearing, taking consultant's money, but the order disappears then you have call their customer support line and wait 2-3 hours for someone to answer who can't really help you, or they drop or lose the call. *Quality Control is nonexistent. Quality Control should happen in the warehouse before its shipped to the consultants. Consultants should not have to lose money, shipping something back to the warehouse for defects that they have no control over. That is just wrong. *when you sign up, they say "Oh if its not for you, you can just send it back" ( Oh, but there is 15% re-stocking fee, and if you don't send it back exactly they way they sent to you, its another fee, and you have to pay for shipping, as well) *They say its a company empowering women, but I have seen many catty and mean consultants worrying too much how other consultants run their business. * Constant pics of the HO MGMT team travelling throughout the world, & across the country for their trainings, instead of getting things managed/fixed at Home office. While all these problems happen. *We are not allowed to be negative and give advice to higher ups about the company. We are supposed to just suck it up, and not let it bother us. *Bad Return Policy *Its not really work from home opportunity, as the focus of the business really at the heart is in-home "pop-up boutiques" (lugging all the clothing, racks, & other sales materials from house to house for in-home shopping experience).
