Pros

Great product Second income opportunity You define your role Great tax benefits Focus on Family, God, and Self Company handles the sales tax Will purchase

Cons

Quotas to keep discount privileges High shipping costs All the supplies needed to sell the product cost extra Directors are great at talking you into buying more and dangling the carrot Strong use of gifts or prizes to manipulate you into reaching targets You can't be shy to do this job, it requires a lot of personal selling
