HELP US MOVE THE WORLD

What Does a Consultant Do?

Consultants get off to a great start with fun and informal Home Shows! All it takes is sending out a few invitations, greeting the friends and family of your hostess and displaying these amazing books! After demonstrating their unique qualities and educational value, sit back and watch our books capture the imagination and hearts of each guest.

How Much Does a Consultant Make?

Your monthly income is directly correlated to how much time you invest in growing your business. A new consultant averages $75-$125 per home show as shown in the chart listed below. Multiply that by the number of days you are willing to work per month for a good estimate of your income. You earn 25% commission on a home show for investing a couple of hours socializing with other adults and helping them find the right books for their children.

The Usborne Opportunity

"We provide economic opportunity while fostering strong family values."

Bonnie Kleber


 Supervisor
"I started with Usborne Books At Home after hosting a Home Party four years ago. I wouldn't have imagined what UBAH would do for me and where it would lead. To my surprise, I noticed that by consistently working two events a week, I surpassed my personal and financial goals. To date, I have built an extraordinary library, earned several vacations and have a business I can call my own. But best of all, I can be a great role model for my children. Imagine what UBAH can do for you!"
 

Ruth Smith


Director
"When I started with UBAH I just wanted these fantastic books at a discount. Then I realized:
  • People involved in UBAH value children & education, too!
  • UBAH benefits include - income, recognition, friendship & vacation incentives, while promoting literacy.
  • UBAH management is solid & caring.
  • Potential is limitless!
Now, I help others reach their goals. Success is achievable at all levels, even for those who, like myself, are far exceeding their expectations. Enjoy a flexible, profitable and rewarding business with UBAH!"
 

Patti Erickson


Supervisor
"From the moment I paged through a UBAH catalog, I realized this was something I wanted to be part of. What other home based business can bring such knowledge and joy into the minds of our children. After 20 short months I was able to obtain supervisorship, earned my first trip and became New Supervisor of the Year 2005. I now realize that the ceiling will go as high as my dreams will take it."
 

Christi Crippin -


Supervisors

"I began my adventure with Usborne books three years ago as a way to be home with my three young kids and still stay connected to a meaningful career. My experiences with Usborne have given me the gift of personal growth, recognition, financial stability, wonderful friendships and the change to travel to places I would have never dreamed of going! I love being part of Usborne books and I am even more committed to building a successful and rewarding business than the day I joined!"

 

Jo Ann Walsh -

"I never dreamed that I would ask someone I just met to trust me and take a chance by opening their lives to all the wonderful opportunities Usborne books have to offer. I feel honored each time someone new joins my group. I believe each of us has the power inside to create change, make a better life for our families and find personal growth. Usborne books allows me to do all of those things without missing important milestones in my children's lives."
