SUCCESS
has never been this much fun
When I started Thirty-One in 2003, I wanted to give women an opportunity to do something they enjoyed while building friendships and helping support their families. Over the past decade, Consultants have worked to build Thirty-One into a thriving business, and new Consultants will help take us into the future. But no matter how fast we grow, we never lose sight of our original purpose – helping women connect face-to-face while pursuing their dreams, all while maintaining our 12 core values. That’s why we’re 100% committed to providing Consultants with helpful tools, personal support and fresh, innovative products to help them sell more while they celebrate. If you love being a part of something exciting, something bigger that’s still personally rewarding, consider the opportunity Thirty-One has to offer. It could be the first step to making your dreams come true. Blessings,
SISTERHOOD. SUPPORT. SUCCESS.

JOIN THE PARTY!
MEET YOUR NEW BFFS
Talk to a group of Thirty-One Consultants and you’ll find the reasons they joined are as different as their personalities. Some needed extra money to achieve a specific goal. Others wanted the flexibility of working from home. Whatever your reasons, everyone has their own personal “why.” Whether it’s the earning potential, benefits or sisterhood that attracts you, there’s never been a better time to join the party and start achieving your “why.”
Thirty-One is the opportunity of a lifetime. It’s also an opportunity to make friendships that will last forever. Our focus has always been on helping women connect face-to-face while pursuing their dreams. We’ve already helped thousands of women take control of their future – we hope you’ll be next.

Poplar, MT
Simpsonville, SC
My “why” started out as being able to bring in extra money to help my family. I wanted to buy things and go on trips without breaking the bank. As I have become successful, my “why” has changed. I now want to help other ladies realize that they can learn, promote and succeed with Thirty-One.
I was recently able to purchase our family’s dream lake home. I’ve always longed for a place where we all can be together and make memories. I hope that for years to come my family will enjoy the lake house and remember the love that their father and I share for them. Without Thirty-One this would have never been possible.
Overland Park, KS
Ogdensburg, NJ
I wanted to be able to provide the extras. We don’t have the money discussions and worries that we used to. Our children see their parents happy and dreaming big. After having my baby daughter, I was on a conference call, and I looked down at her and realized how lucky we both were. I have the best of both worlds.
I never imagined that in one year I would have started my own business and be training for an Ironman race! My Thirty-One journey has given me confidence and encouragement. It has deepened my faith in God, taught me patience and surrounded me with positive women who inspire me.
Glen Falls, NY
Orlando, FL
I can work anywhere at any time. I have the opportunity to stay home and raise our children and still have an income that makes an impact on our financial situation. This is a dream come true for me considering I left my career in retail management so that I could be a hands-on mom!
Thirty-One empowers me to remember that I am more… I am enough... I am worth it. And I love to share this message at my parties. Being involved with Thirty-One Gives has been the highlight of my Thirty-One career so far. Our passion for giving back is the heart of our brand.
Irmo, SC
Johnstown, NY
We could never have moved back to my home state of South Carolina without my Thirty-One income. Seeing our sons, Andrew and Casey, happy and thriving has been everything we hoped for. This Thirty-One adventure continues to take me new places, so I can take my family new places!
I’m so proud that I have been able to find a new purpose in my life and have been able to fill a part of the emptiness that I felt when I lost my husband. I’m proud to share the opportunity with others who may also have some void in their life.

Note that these figures do not represent a Consultant’s profit, as they do not consider expenses incurred by a Consultant in operation or promotion of her business. The figures above refer to gross income (total income before any expenses are deducted). The expenses a Consultant incurs in the operation of her Thirty-One business vary widely. Expenses for Consultants can be several thousand dollars annually. You should factor in estimated expenses when projecting potential profits. Such operating expenses could include advertising and promotional expenses, product samples, training, travel, telephone and Internet costs and miscellaneous expenses. Thirty-One does not require Consultants to purchase or maintain inventory. As a matter of fact, our policies clearly prohibit this practice. The earnings of the Consultants in this chart are not necessarily representative of the income, if any, that a Consultant can or will earn through her Thirty-One business. These figures should not be considered as guarantees or projections of your actual earnings or profits. Any representation or guarantee of earnings would be misleading. Your success with Thirty-One results only from successful sales efforts, which require hard work, diligence and leadership. Your success will depend upon how effectively you exercise these qualities. We’re committed to doing the right thing and following good business practices, as well as all laws regulating our industry.
