If you’re willing to work hard, the sky’s pretty much the limit for home-party salespeople.
At the Walton household in Merritt Island, the primary income-earner for the last decade is Joan, executive sales manager with the Weekenders clothing line.
The income potential is dependent upon how much you want to work.
“You can make a six-figure income,” Walton said. “I know many women who have.”
The nation’s top Weekenders sales coordinator, based out of South Florida, earned $120,000 last year.
“That was just with retail sales,” Walton said.
Coordinators can add to their income from the volume of sales of coordinators they’ve recruited.
Despite the carrot of a large income, however, 87 percent of party sales reps remain part-time like Elmore.

Hello there… I just wanted to say how sorry I am for all the Weekender Consultants. I love the clothing line. I have several outfits. I feel very sad for your loss.
I would love to have you change your focus to PLASTIC! Tupperware has been solid for 60+ years and has a very reputable name and product.
Please visit my website and give me a call if this would interest you. Start up cost can be NO out of pocket costs. I believe it to be the easiest selling product out there. I have tried my hand in quite a few companies and have been successful with only one… Tupperware. The product litterally sells itself.
Feel free to call me with any questions you may have.

I am with lia sophia jewelry and when I heard about your company I felt terrible for all the coordinators and managers with Weekenders. I know how everyone must feel. I lost a job to downsizing so I understand how you must feel.
I wanted to help by sharing our lia sophia opportunity. I have been in direct sales for over 25 years and with lia sophia for 5 years. Within less than 3 years I was able to earn a six figure income with lia sophia, which was something I never achieved with the other company I was with for 20 years. I would love to talk with you to give you some information, under no obligation. With the great fall selling season approaching in a few months, it would be a great time to launch a new successful business. Please feel free to go to my website and call me at any time. I wish you the best.
Dedicated to your success

Hello. . I too wanted to say how sorry I am for the Weekenders’ Consultants. If you were passionate about Weekenders and worked hard I’m sure you were successful and built many relationships along the way.
I just wanted to invite you to request more information about working from home if you are still interested and open-minded to starting a new business adventure. I agree that if you work hard the sky is the limit!
I have 3 boys and my degree in accounting and used to work the busy tax season and just recently pursued my secondary education license, all of which have made me who I am today. . . but I love working hard for myself and making my own hours. . .as you can well understand. My husband and 3 boys are very supportive and make it that much more enjoyable, so if you are interested in learning more you can read more by clicking on the website provided below.

Why oh why did Weekenders abandon the priceless concept they started with???? The original idea was fantastic, but then they felt obliged to go for the younger market and cut costs and ended up selling nasty polyester type stuff that you could buy from H & M at half the price.
If only someone would use the original ideas and quality, lots of us would be forever grateful!!

It is being worn by celebrities and sought after by fashion editors across the country.

It is truly HOT! As a new company, we are seeking consultants and PROVEN BUSINESS BUILDERS in every state right now. This is truly a ground floor opportunity to build big in direct sales.
