Do I require any qualifications to become a party organiser/consultant? How do I know if this is the right job for me?
There are no qualifications needed to take advantage of this exciting opportunity! Whether you are a people's person, have excellent communication skills, or ever dreamed of working in the fashion industry, this role will definitely be suitable for you.
Would I have to buy my own samples?
No. CLAUDIA POLO will rent you a samples kit valued at £300, which you will have to return when you leave.
How much is the Samples Kit Rental?
£3.00 per week, until you either earn £1500 or you'll work for us, paying weekly for 32 weeks - which ever comes first. After that period, the Samples Kit still remains the property of CLAUDIA POLO, but you will have it on free rental.
How many hours do I have to work?
As many as you like. Being CLAUDIA POLO House Party Organiser / Consultant means you work on a freelance basis and decide about your hours. The more parties you do, the more money you will make – simple!
How would I find my party hosts and hostesses?
Most people start by having a party at their own home, or at friend’s, neighbour’s, colleague's, houses. Anywhere you go you should spread the word about our Fair Trade, Ethical fashion and eco-chic products, in other words CLAUDIA POLO 'Fair Trade Fashion & Accessories'! Remember that people do like and want the parties! And because our products basically sell themselves, combining their quality and exclusiveness with your sales skills, you will get more bookings at the parties you hold.
Is there a minimum sales quantity I have to place?
Yes, you have to make sales of a minimum of £100 per month to keep your account open. It doesn't matter how many orders you place, as long as monthly total is not less than £100.
What happens if I am on holiday?
Besides parties, you can always sell CLAUDIA POLO products and put additional orders, so if you're not able to organise any party in a particular month, you have to make sure you'll sell our items in a different way. If you plan it well, the catalogue will work for you whilst you are away.
Is there a minimum order value?
No, our prices start from £10 plus a small shipping and handling fee. But there's free delivery on all orders above £100.
How much will I be able to earn?
A lot depends on you and your sales skills. You get 20% on all party orders e.g. if the party sales are £200 you receive £40.00 profit (remember that this applies to sales above £100).
How much discount would I get off my personal orders?
There's always 25% discount on anything you want to buy, and you get free shipping. Whether it is for yourself or for your Samples Kit.
What if I'm not always available full time or even part time?
CLAUDIA POLO party organiser doesn't have to be a full time job (though it certainly can become one if you're good enough!). It is an ideal job whether you are a student or have a family, you can do it if you already have another part time or even full time job! Evenings and weekends are actually the perfect time for you to organise the parties.
Are there any other advantages?
Besides earning some extra cash, getting great discounts and deciding about your own working hours, you will also contribute to raising awareness, promoting and campaigning on Fair Trade and eco-friendly CLAUDIA POLO products that will make a great difference to the environment and our producer's communities in the rural Andes.
How can I keep in contact with you?
There will be one meeting every month to discuss progress, exchange feedback and find out about anything new that may help you to make your parties even better! The dates and times of the meetings are going to be arranged so they suit everybody's timetable. Besides, you can also contact us by e-mail or phone whenever you need.
OK, so how can I start?
Contact us on info@claudiapolo.com or 07812051394 and we will arrange a meeting to give you all the information you need. Then you will complete all the necessary documents, such as Consultant Application Form and Samples Kit Rental Form, and give us some form of identification (copy of driving licence or passport will do). After a short induction meeting you will be ready to start advertising the parties and get as many bookings as possible before your Samples Kit arrives.
