Here are all the details on the Starter Packages and pricing. We tried very hard to make sure there was something for everyone. If you have any questions please leave them in the comments field below.
Starter Packages & Pricing from Lisa-Marie Cabrelli on Vimeo.
packages look great! so excited about the training and the web sit. Thanks!
Very excited! One question for clarification- the starter packages are a one time fee with a $14.95 monthly fee or are they the package fee AND the internet fee each month? For example is it: $99 one time with $14.95 each month? or is it $99 PLUS $14.95 each month?
Pretty sure it’s a one time plus $14.95 each month – YEAH!!! My daughter and I are going to rock with our new business.
Absolutely ONLY one time fee Denise. The only monthly fee is the $14.95 for the website.
Just viewed ur starter packages. They look pretty good! I like the coupon idea & would love to see you add 1-2 to the economy level. Are there ways to “earn” more coupons? These r a great way to add samples to ur kits. I do feel the monthly fee for the website is high. I have mine through my direct sales business and pay only 4.99 for one i can customize…there is a free level that is not customizable. see what u think…www.longaberger.com/elizabethlipford and please let me know how it compares to what yall r offering. I really like the downloadable templates and the 30 day good start idea . I’m sure that will prove very effective. Looking forward to your reply! Liz
Hi Liz! We have many sales contests (and even just contests for fun) amongst the consultants and we do give away coupons. We did do a lot of research on the website costs and found most companies charge between $9.99 and $39.99 so we really did try to keep it on the very low end. Very large companies that have been around a long time have many consultants so they are able to offer these websites for lower amounts as they have sales to help defray the expenses of the system provided. Don’t forget we also do not participate in multi-level marketing so we will be growing at a slower rate – focusing on building business owners not recruiters. As we get more consultants we will be able to look again at the website fees. Remember it only takes one average web sale a month to cover this cost. The website you referred us to is similar to what we are offering. You will be able to customize your profile page and add photos.
Thanks for the quick response! This will really help with us making our decision. Baskets of Success to everyone, Liz
I am looking forward to doing this business here in Canada. I am appreciating the bits of info you send to us in preparation for the launch. It is a testament that you have done a lot of research from the first launch to this next launch and that you have your would-be consultants in mind. Thank you very much, Hanna.
I am very impressed with the professionalism of the Emily-Rose at home plan. Great job!!! My questions: Will those of us who purchase a package for our at home business be considered Independent Consultants? Do we handle our own income, taxes, and other items that go into a home business? Does the company require a social security number? When someone orders off our website, how is the money handled? Do we need to get a paypal account set up or can we stipulate cash or check only? Thanks, Linda
Hi Linda – for tax purposes you are considered independent consultants – your income from Emily Rose is treated as business income giving you all of the same tax advantages that small business owners have. You are responsible for claiming and paying your own taxes on that income – we provide a 1099. When someone orders from our website they use their own credit card or Paypal account – we handle all of the financial transaction stuff for you and pay your commission monthly via direct deposit in to your bank account. Of course when you collect payment at a party you may stipulate whichever payment method you prefer and pay for the order with the method of your choosing.
16 days and counting! My daughters and I can’t wait! I plan on purchasing the Platinum package for our business adventure–love the furniture. Lisa, I do have a question about what exactly will happen at launch time on the 24th. What exactly will I need to do? Just make the purchase on the website, or phone? Perhaps I’m jumping the gun and you will be filling us in on those details later… Laura (and daughters Heidi and Bridget)
Everything looks great, What can I expect on launch day, I would like to purchase the Platinum package. Is this a first come first serve
opportunity, or can I become a consultant by purchasing the package. I am planning to work with my grandaughter Jessica. We are very excited
Hi Barbara – If your purchase goes through on Launch Day you instantly become a consultant. Your website is available immediately and your Starter Package will be on it’s way.
Hi Laura – All you have to do on Launch Day is wait for your invitation to purchase (it will go out via email and facebook) and then purchase on the website during the morning or evening opening. Looking forward to meeting you (and Heidi and Bridget).
Any idea what time of day the morning and evening openings will be? with 2 young kids at home i don’t get a lot of free time to get on the computer, wouldn’t want to miss the opening!
Thanks.
Sure – 9-11am (ET) AND 9-11pm (ET)
Hi Hanna – Don’t forget that you have to consider the shipping and customs duty charges for Canada (which we can’t cover). You have to raise your end-user prices to cover your costs which is fine with us but we did have a Canadian Founder who left because she thought the costs were too high. The problem in her case was that she was trying to order very small amounts for 1-2 customers at a time. You definitely need to buy/order in bulk to make the shipping/duty less of an impact.
Are you limiting the number of businesses on start up day? I know last year you sold out quickly. Also, can if I don’t order the Platinum package, can I still order business cards? Or will that marketing piece be with the other marketing pieces so that I can print my own? I’m really stuck between the middle package and the platinum package.
Also, you made the comment above to Barbara – “if your purchase goes through on launch day”. Is there the possibility that our purchase wont go through? I’m just nervous about missing the opportunity again. Been waiting a long time.
Hi Barb – we want to make absolutely sure that everyone that joins @Home gets the fullest support that we are able to provide. This means that we would prefer to grow slowly so that we can focus on nurturing the success of each and every consultant. We know that there is a great deal of interest in the re-launch and although we are not limiting to a very strict number as we did last year we will decide on Launch Day based on order volumes whether or not to limit new joins. I would expect that if you make it within the first hour of either of our launch periods you should be fine. You will be able to order business cards and also download the business card template for free – but it isn’t just the business cards that are the difference between the success and the platinum – you might want to evaluate very carefully as there will be a lot of platinum bonuses available on Launch Day.
See below as to why we might limit the new joins.
I would like pricing information please!
Hi Lori
You can watch the video above and it includes all of the pricing information.
I’ve been reading over the Agreement and had a business question. Will I have to file for a business license to operate as an independent consultant?
It completely depends on the rules of your city and state Laura. Every location has different rules.
I just went to the website you are letting us look at today. Is this a sample of our Personal website or your own new Emily Rose website? I couldn’t open the products offered, just comes up w/ Associate search info. I really wanted know what products we would be able to sell from our own website & at home parties. I am really confused, does everyone go to this one website and enter consultants name or #? Why the page “Own an @ Home Business”? I thought you were just allowing a certain # of consultants in on launch day to keep it small for now. Will it then be open to everyone else after launch day? And, I didn’t notice the link to your own Emily Rose web site so our customers can see all products Emily Rose offers. By the way, I bought the new Pink Triple Bunk Bed and wanted to post a product review but can’t figure out how to do it on your site. I really like it! Will this be one of the products for our home parties? I am surprised that not more people have posted comments today on new sample website. Am I going to the wrong place? Sorry for so many questions, I just want to have all of the facts right. Pam
Hi Pam – All you have to do to see the products is just click the words “If you are currently not working with a Associate, click here to continue. ” The consultant search is the first thing one sees because our goal is to make sure that everyone buys from your personal website. If a person has lost your personal website address this gives you the chance to still capture a commission. We haven’t decided how many new consultants we are taking as of yet. We want to make sure it grows slowly. All of the @Home products are listed on this website – there is no reason we would link to the regular Emily Rose site – you don’t want your customers to shop there you want them to shop with you. You can review the Triple Bunk on the ER site by going to the product page and clicking on “write a review”.
Thank you for your help. It worked! On Own a @ home business, I clicked join now and read thru packages. The middle package for
$249. includes Integrated customer e-mail and auto responder but neither of the other 2 packages mentions that. Is that included in the $99. and the $395.00? Thanks, again. Pam
I looked at the start packages and when signing up for one, the website ask for your ssn#, email address and password. Why do we need to provide all three of those over the internet and why do we need to provide a password to an email account?
Hi – We need your social security number because without it we can’t pay you commission (it’s a legal requirement). We need your email so that we can provide you with details of the program. We don’t need the password to your email account – we need you to set-up a password so that you can access your Consultant Back-Office. We can assure you that our systems are completely secure and your information is not shared with anyone.
I was wondering if a grandmother could get in on this great opportunity. I love dolls and was planning to make 18″ doll clothes for sale. I have been wanting to put an online business together for dolls and this program is just what my plans included. I even bought a Madame Alexander doll because my granddaughter has one. I am really excited about this. My other option is to make my own website and become a wholesaler of your products. Either way, my husband and I have 5 web based business already. This would round out our list and we would both be happy on the net. Thanks for your and answer.
We have lots of Grandmothers Marge! We’d love to have you!
