Paparazzi - A Review by Stana Doxtator | Home Party Businesses, Direct Sales Companies, Opportunities, Reviews

Provide a brief description of your company and the products?

Paparazzi combs the world over to find the best and newest styles in fashion accessories. To qualify for Paparazzi a product must be trendy, glamorous, and of exceptional quality. We involve ourselves in every aspect of production, from working with designers to sourcing manufacturers that meet our stringent requirements. We work with our suppliers to keep our prices low so our styles can be affordable for everyone. Accessories include Necklaces, Earrings, Bracelets, Headbands, and Hair Clips.

Provide a brief company history including how long in business and how many consultants in how many countries.

In 2008, Misty Kirby acted on a life long desire to buy, design, and sell jewelry and fashion accessories, and what started as a way to earn extra money for a trip to Disneyland became Paparazzi.

Starting just before one of the biggest crashes on Wall Street and the worst recession in the USA since the great depression, Paparazzi not only survived but grew rapidly. In September of 2009 Misty joined forces with her sister, Chani, exhibiting throughout the Western United States at women’s expos, large outdoor fairs, rodeos, boutiques, themed expos, and even house parties. Regardless of the venue or locale, the response is the same ….women love Paparazzi because it gives them the opportunity to purchase trendy accessories at an affordable price.

When friends and family began to lose jobs, homes, and retirement pensions Paparazzi became a way to help them earn money to “pay the bills.” Paparazzi has never pushed or encouraged people to become consultants. The product itself and the exciting opportunity it provides are all that has been needed to spark a desire in people to become involved and share with their friends and family.

How much is the commission on personal sales and downline? How often are consultants paid?

As a Paparazzi Independent Consultant, you are able to purchase inventory for your shows or parties at wholesale pricing, and sell that same inventory at the suggested full retail price. This gives you a 45% commission or profit on all the jewelry sold at these events. You may also earn up to 10% on your downline.
