160+ Party Plan Businesses
photo credit: Pink Sherbet Photography
Home party businesses combine the income opportunities of direct sales with a party at someone else’s house. Customers gather in the home of a host or hostess and see product demonstrations and socialize with their friends. The seller then takes orders before the party ends. New hosts are recruited at the same time for future parties. They are easy to run and typically inexpensive to start and perfect for someone looking to start a small supplementary business in the evening.
There are a wide variety of products sold this way, from candles and purses to adult novelties. I’ve compiled a list of 160+ party plan businesses to check out.
If you know of any other party plan business that I haven’t include, please leave them in the comments.

Thanks Aimee, exactly what I was looking for!

Melaleuca is not technically a party plan. It is a different kind of business – unique in many ways. Thank you for gathering and providing this information.

I am looking at joining CaBi direct sales.
It is a clothing line.
What info do you have?
Is it lucrative to start a directe sales business at this time that rquires a consultant to meet sales dollar reqirements before that are paid the commision on their sales?

There is another opportunity that allows you to determine what vinyl lettering you would like to use for either decorating a room, using on a craft project, decorate an art project, etc. Truly the uses are only limited by your imagination. The clients can customize each item by color and also allows it to mimic glass etching… very cool and you can choose the size of the letters and colors of the letters.
I am not a representative myself, but am looking into it. It’s called Uppercase Living.
Also, if you can’t find a quote you want, you can custom create one. It’s really cool.

Please add Xango and it’s new holistic, green skin care line Glimpse.

Please add J. Hilburn Men’s Clothier to your list. We are a custom men’s clothing line that provides custom men’s dress shirts (and short sleeve polo’s) at an amazing price point….less than a retail ready wear shirt . We are not a party plan, our partners (consultants) set appointments durring the day. We use all Italian Fabrics, European Cotton and double stack buttons… oh and you can create your very own shirt just the way you want it or buy a gift card for the man in your life. We are almost 2 years old and we are definately ground floor, currently in 50 cities around the country.

What about Just Jewelry? We are one of the nation’s fastest growing home-based businesses offering a variety of jewelry through a unique ‘one-price’ concept. This is a company for ANYONE! Parties are always casual (open house format), and guests go home with their purchases. Great hostess benefits too! Although Just Jewelry has been in the marketplace for over 7 years, you can still be the first in your area to become a Just Jewelry Consultant, earning a full 50% commission starting with your very first sale. Consultants can also sell the beautiful jewelry and accessories at street fairs, trunk shows, craft fairs, bazaars, vendor events, fundraisers, etc., or display and sell at a salon, bank, school, or doctor’s office! Don’t miss this opportunity to join a rapidly growing company on the ground floor and build your own team of down-lines, if you so desire! Contact me via my website http://www.JustJewelryGirl.com for more information!
