How to read this comparison

  • Starter kit is the up-front purchase to begin selling. Some companies also charge an annual renewal or a website fee; check the company page.
  • Personal commission is your cut of your own retail sales. Downline commission is what you earn on sales by people you recruit; a plan with no downline pay is single-level, one with overrides is multi-level.
  • Sales to earn the kit back divides the minimum kit by the minimum commission. It is the retail volume you must sell before the kit has paid for itself, before any other costs.
  • Most multi-level plans publish an income disclosure statement. Ask for it, and read it, before you sign. Typical participants earn far less than the top ranks.
  • Figures are company-reported and can change. Spot something out of date? Tell us.

KEEP Collective is one of THE best direct sales companies out there in my opinion! Our Home Office cares deeply about each and every designer whether she sells a thousand charms or one charm in any given month! A true feeling of sisterhood can be gleaned from this wonderful group of woman (and some men) from all over the country! And our jewelry is off the highest quality while keeping prices low and affordable so that everyone is able to design, create, and tell their story once charm at a time!

The start up cost can be costly lime most up scale charm system's but Keep actually has the lowest price in that quality. You can earn a full Keep-Sake in a single social! I've done it everytime the hostess contributes also!
