Risk: Moderate
I’d rate the risk a 2 out of 5 because:
- Money: There are initial costs for purchasing inventory or starter kits. If sales are not as expected, you may not recoup these costs.
- Time and Energy: Considerable time and effort are needed to build a customer base and host parties. If sales are low, this investment may not pay off.
- Confidence: Repeated unsuccessful attempts to sell can lead to discouragement and loss of confidence.
- Common Experiences: Many beginners report spending money on inventory and marketing with little to no return, especially if they lack sales experience or a strong network.
- Startup Costs: These might not pay off if the market is saturated or if you struggle to find customers.
Overall, while some people succeed, many find it challenging to make a profit, especially without prior sales experience or a strong network.
