Get Glittering Success with Silpada

Silver. More understated but just as elegant as gold, it can add sparkle to even the drabbest of ensembles. This is exactly what Silpada Designs co-founders Bonnie Kelly and Teresa Walsh realized when they met at their children’s school. The immediately became the best of friends and began brainstorming ways to make extra cash.

They began designing jewelry and hosting parties at friends’ houses. Soon, some of the partygoers saw how much fun the two were having and wanted in on the action. In 1997, Bonnie and Teresa created an exclusive line of jewelry and a catalog and invited friends and customers to share the wealth.

The Silpada catalog includes bracelets, cuffs, necklaces, earrings, belts and watches designed by women who actually wear the products made of .925. sterling silver.

For a $199 Initial Certification Fee, one can acquire all the necessary learning materials to get the party started. All the jewelry you buy is for a show, meaning you can wear what you sell at a 50 percent discount. And the more pieces you buy to start, the more you’ll save on the certification fee. For example, order $1500 worth of merchandise at a $750 cost to you and your fee is reduced to $100. Order $3500 worth ($1750 to you) and your certification is free!

However, this business isn’t strictly about the lovely, inexpensive silver pieces you get to wear, it’s about making money.

Based on the national Home Party retail average of $950, even hosting one party a week would net you $285. Even more of the pieces sell like gangbusters. And that’s only three to four hours of time put in. Spend 20 hours a week showcasing the jewelry and making new friends, and you have the potential to make $1425. For the time spent at a part-time job! That yields a possible yearly income of nearly $70K!

However, that’s only the money you can make off the merchandise itself. With your first recruit, you make 4% of their wholesale sales. As you move up in the ranks, your earning potential increases. As a Star Director, you look forward to making 16% of wholesale sales.

Other incentives exist as well. To get started, you receive a certificate worth $200 in free jewelry when you organize and submit your first party within your first year. Based on your sales of the first 100 days, you could earn up to $3,000 in free jewelry. And every qualified recruit you sponsor in the first 100 days will earn you another $500 in product.

What’s more fun than showing off beautiful accessories?
