Start your own on line business, store or boutique

I've been writing beauty and fashion articles for three years...first for Seed.com and now at Hub Pages. If you've read my profile, you're already aware that I have a pretty diverse background in the Fashion industry, Banking & Real Estate, even Health Care.

For years, I had wanted to have my own Boutique, but who can afford a store front, inventory and all of the overhead that goes with a new business venture? Not me, at least not in this economy.

It was during research for one of my articles that I discovered Mark. I ordered a kit containing a wide selection of their products and absolutely fell in love. Then I turned around and picked out a nice Spring dress in hot pink (definitely my signature color!) and some great jewelry pieces which have the added benefit of supporting domestic violence programs through their proceeds.

Mark. products are definitely tried and true. Their mother company has been around for YEARS. Now, let me tell you...I was an Avon lady AND a Tupperware Rep. 15+ years ago. I have to say that while both of those companies have stellar products, I found it difficult to work full time AND host parties to make the sale.

Maybe I'm not the most outgoing, girlfriend-y kind of gal I guess, LOL! I dunno. However, one thing was true then, as well as now: People always ask me where I get my clothing, shoes, jewelry, cosmetics....the list goes on. I'm a little bit edgy and I love to try new things, so Mark. really appealed to me in a big way.

Below are MY top ten reasons for choosing Mark. as my on line business.

1. Mark. has an on line E-Boutique platform that is incredibly easy to utilize.

2. Start up was VERY inexpensive! For $20 I received awesome products to try before I started selling.

3. The products are edgy and fun with quality that is second to none.

4. The variety of items is unreal. Cosmetics, skin care products, clothing, hats, jewelry, fragrances.

5. Having a cause that I believe in is very important to me. The fact that a portion of their jewelry proceeds go to support a variety of domestic violence programs was a really big deal.

6. The web design, the feel of the products and the marketing is young and fun, a feast for the senses.

7. Having a mentor in my region was very important to me. Being able to exchange ideas and see how other reps get their name and their business out there is a great source of support.

8. Webinars and forums to incorporate continuing education easily and efficiently is crucial. My Mark. web office has all of the tools that I need to be successful. My best advice is to take the time to read other reps experiences and learn.

9. Fashion experts! Mark. actually publishes a trend magazine in which they feature high profile beauty and fashion experts. I love reading their tips and advice.

10. The online ordering process is all electronic and handled by Mark. while I am focusing on marketing my boutique. I don't have to worry about processing my own orders. They handle this for me, which is incredible.
