It depends on how much time and effort you put into your business. Since the average home party sale is $400, most consultants make $100 per party, plus bonuses. Determine how much money you want to make each month and divide that by the number of events you need to reach that goal. For example if you need to make $400 divide that by $100 per home party = 1 home party per week. The company covers the cost of free books for Home Parties, e-shows and Book Fairs!

Consultant Agreement and Kit Order Form I hereby apply to become an independent Consultant of Usborne Books & More (“UBAM” and the “Company”). I am at least 18 years of age. Upon acceptance of the Consultant Agreement and Kit Order Form (“this agreement”) by UBAM through issuance of a consultant identi cation number and in consideration of UBAM granting me the right and privilege to sell UBAM products, I agree to the following terms and conditions: 1. I understand that I am purchasing a business opportunity that requires my commitment to offer Usborne Books & More product through home parties and other marketing channels. I understand that my earnings and success will depend upon my successful sale of UBAM products and my recruiting of other successful consultants. I will receive earnings and rank title according to the commission structure and information chart set forth in the UBAM Consultant Guide. I agree that UBAM may, at its sole discretion, revise the Consultant Guide (including provisions concerning pro ts and other earnings) from time to time; my continued engagement in selling UBAM products after such revisions constitutes my agreement to these revisions. 2. I am a self-employed independent contractor and not an employee, representative or agent of Usborne Books & More or any other consultant.

responsible for all Federal, State and Local taxes on income I receive as a UBAM consultant. The Internal Revenue states, “The consultant will not be treated as an employee for federal or state tax purposes.” My business as a UBAM consultant will be in every respect independent of the Company’s business and of any other business, and I will conduct it as such. 3.
