Pros

Best home based business as far as commissions, at 50%. Choose your hours, when and where you work, level of inventory, and level of effort. There is no limit if you put your heart and soul into it.

Cons

You cannot work part time if you truly want to make money and promotions, as they advertise to new consultants. In order to receive bonuses, win the cars and trips, you have to recruit and you have to carry lots of inventory and have your calendar fully booked at all times.
