Your salary for this job is entirely dependent on how much you sell, which is entirely dependent on how often you get hired for parties. This work involves start-up funds for a basic package of Avon products from the host company. With these products you go to parties/functions and advertise your products through discussions and games. Your nature needs to be naturally outgoing; you meet new people every time you interact with customers and getting them involved in the presentation is half the battle of turning them into customers! This career option is extremely intriguing for older women looking for a job where they make their own hours and are their own boss.
