Why I do what I do

Let me tell you a little story.  Last winter my family was struggling financially.  I was staying at home with my daughter, and my husband was working full-time.  Sadly, part of his monthly paycheck was based on commission, so some months we really struggled.  In December, a friend of mine was hosting a Pure Romance party, and I decided that I needed a night out.  I was a little nervous about going, since I'd never been to a party like it before, and I had no idea what to expect.  Part of me was expecting a boring sex-ed lecture on how to use the products, and the other part of me was expecting vibrator sword fights.  Luckily, neither of these was correct.  The party was actually really fun.  People won prizes, everyone learned something new that they didn't know before that night, and most of all we all laughed.  A lot.  I'm actually surprised that in a room full of moms (we were in a moms' group together) not one of us peed our pants!  It was quite an accomplishment.  I talked to the consultant briefly about her job, and took home some flyers and handouts she had.

Then I waited.  And waited.  And stressed about  money.  And looked at the flyers.  And stressed some more.  And waited more.  Until finally in March I decided just to go for it.  I bought myself the Gold Kit (at a much higher price than they offer it most of the time, thank you very much) and started learning everything about the products Pure Romance carries.  I watched all the videos available online, and read all of the information sheets.  I crafted my demo (which is kind of like writing a stand-up comedy act now that I think about it), and booked my first party.

I won't lie, I was nervous as hell the night of that first party.  I've never been a super confident person, and I was freaking out a little bit.  But once I got going it just came naturally.  I've always been the girl who everyone asks sex advice from (let's not get into why ok?), so it wasn't weird at all for me to talk about sex in front of a room full of women.  They asked questions, and I knew the answers because Pure Romance provided me with such good resources.  It was kind of awesome.  Then it was time to order and I had some sort of out of body experience and totally floundered through everyone's orders.  It was kind of embarrassing.  But I got two more parties booked from that night and made a few hundred bucks to boot!  On the way home, I realized that this was by far the easiest money I had ever earned.  I was gone from the house for maybe four hours, and I made about $150.  That's better than any job I've ever had!

Now I usually just do a party or two a month, and make about $500 a month.  Yeah, I could do more, but I really like spending time with my family, so I choose to limit the number of parties I do a month.  If I actually wanted to, and I booked two parties a weekend I'd probably be making $1500 a month (before taxes, but we'll deal with that come April).  It's nice to know that I can make more if, say, our car breaks down, or I can spend more time with my family and just make enough to make ends meet.  I love the flexibility that this job provides.  I also love the fact that every night on my way home from a party I can honestly say that I helped most of those women go home to have the best sex of their lives, whether it's with a partner or alone. It's a pretty good feeling, I must say.

If you're reading this and thinking to yourself "Gee, Caitlin, that sounds awesome.  I'd sure like to learn more" please let me know.  I'd love to talk to you about the business, and help you find a way to start earning some extra spending money right away.

So much more than parties

I know that in-home parties are my bread and butter, so to speak, but I've got some other tricks up my sleeve.  If you're interested in the line, but aren't sure about hosting your own party yet try one of these ideas out.

1. Mini-Party:  I'll come to your location of choice and show you only the products you choose in a short demo and ordering session.  Great if you have a small group, or if you or some of your guests simply aren't interested in the toys we offer.  Hostess rewards will work differently; see me for information.
2. Couples Consultations:  I'll meet with you and your partner to discuss what you're both interested in, and I'll help you find some products to take your bedroom adventures to the next level.  We can discuss all together, or I can have individual consultations and come together with my suggestions.  This is great if you have a husband or boyfriend who can't come to parties, but wants to know more about the products and what might be right for him (or if your wife/girlfriend isn't comfortable coming to a party with you).
3. Private Consultations: If you're single, or if you're worried your partner won't be comfortable talking to me about the products, I can get together with just you to discuss the line and help you find the products that are right for you.  This is especially great for women who have some concerns they might not want to discuss in a party setting, or if you would like more one-on-one time for me to really understand what's going on and help you out.
4. Catalog Parties: If you don't have time/space for an in-home party I can give you catalogs and order forms to hand out to your friends.  They fill out their order forms and get them back to either you or me by the closing date.  Everything they order will count towards your party total sales and determine the amount you get in free product.  Hostess rewards work similarly to in-home parties; see me for details.
5. Online Party: Just like a catalog party, but you give your friends my consultant website and they order privately online.  You give me a list of everyone you invited, and any orders placed by them count towards your total party calse and determine the amount you get in free product.  Hostess rewards work similarly to in-home parties; see me for details
6. Training Parties: If you decide to become a Pure Romance consultant, I will help you arrange a debut party (which I will do with you, but you get the sales profits) and/or arrange for you to shadow one of my parties to help you get off to a great start!  Even if you're just considering becoming a consultant you can shadow me to get a feel for how it all works.
7. Destination Party: Planning a girl's weekend away?  I can come up for an evening to do a party for you in the location of your choice.  Depending on how far away it is I may need some reimbursement for travel expenses, but I love to travel so I'm pretty flexible with how far away I will go for free :)
8. Skype Demo:  I can give you a short demo of our products over the computer.  Perfect if you're too far away for me to come to you, but you still want to talk to someone in person about the products rather than just read them online.

So.....what exactly happens at a Pure Romance by Caitlin party?

I get a lot of women asking me this.  Their expectations range from a school-marm style sex-ed lecture to dildo sword fights.  My parties are nothing like either of these scenarios.  I take a little bit from each camp and create a party that fits your desires perfectly.

When you decide to host your very own party, here's the rundown on what will happen.  I will call you to set up a time and date that works for you, and will send you all of the information you'll need to make your party a success.  I'll be available at any time for any questions you may have or help with any part of the planning process.  I will work with you to determine some of the little details of your party, such as games we'll be playing, a theme if you are interested, food and drink ideas, and anything else that you can imagine.

On the day of the party, I will arrive 30-40 minutes early to set up my demo and get all of my stock inside so your guests can go home with the products they purchase.  We'll start with some introductions and a game, then we'll get into the demo portion of the party.  For the first half of the demo, I will show you and your guests a variety of our bath and beauty products, our lotions and lubes, and our other more "spicy" cream products (arousal creams, performance enhancements, etc.).  Many of these you'll get a chance to test out on your arms or hands to see how they feel in person.  We'll take a short break, then we'll play some more games before getting into the toy portion.  I'll show you a selection of each of our types of bedroom accessories (clitoral vibes, vaginal vibes, male sleeves, c-rings, g-spot vibes, and dual action vibes if you want specifics) and you and your guests will get a chance to take a close look at each demo toy.  We'll finish with another game an move on to the ordering portion of the party.  You and your guests will each meet with me privately to ask any questions you may have and place your order confidentially.  After everyone has placed their orders, I will pack up all of my supplies and you and your guests will head off to have the night of your lives!

That's it.  It's surprisingly easy to host a party, and it's completely free.  As a hostess you'll get 10% of the party total sales in free product, as well as free gifts and discounted items to be determined by the party total sales.  Contact me today if you want to learn more about hosting with me!
