FAQ About Paparazzi Jewelry and Accessories

What is Paparazzi Accessories?
Paparazzi is a Direct Sales and Party Plan Company, which specializes in affordable, fashionable accessories. We sell earrings, necklaces, bracelets, rings, hair clips and head bands…..all for $5.00 each! We also have a Starlet Shimmer line for the Little Diva’s for $1.00 each!

Two sisters opened Paparazzi in December 2010 in Utah. Their goal and mission is to bring self-confidence, empowerment and independence to women and families all over the world. They seek to fulfill this mission through the following avenues: First, they seek to offer women an affordable option to be fashionable and feel great. Second, they offer a real home-based business opportunity – independent of “recruiting” friends and neighbors. Independent Consultants of Paparazzi are able to carry inventory, host home parties, basket parties, invite associates, have fun, and sell their inventory directly to the customer. Consultants are able to sell as much and as often as they would like. Third, they offer future independence through the Paparazzi Compensation Plan by Consultants training others to be successful. This gives each Consultant the ability to build a long-term residual income, giving them a potential for real independence.

Can I see a catalog or order online as a customer?
Although we do not have catalogs, we have just launch our Replicated Site Shopping Cart! All customer have the option to purchase online through her consultant’s free site or a hostess’s online party now! All orders are subject to $5.95 shipping and local state tax. Each consultant orders their own inventory and Paparazzi is always changing their products to keep up with the fashion and trend, so there are no catalogs available. There is always NEW inventory! Our customers buy what we have in stock in home parties and cash and carry events.

What is the jewelry made from?
Paparazzi uses a blend of metals to make all our jewelry. The products are primarily made of iron, but do include other trace minerals. Those trace minerals are made up of a metallic alloy or either zinc, steel, aluminum, or copper.

Is there any nickel or lead in the jewelry?
No. All of our pieces are completely nickel and lead free. However, they are not classified as being hypo-allergenic.

 

 

Hostesses:
Earn FREE jewelry and/or hair accessories for hosting a Basket party, Online party, Home party, or Open House: 
The company offers 10% in retail sales for hostesses and we are compensated 2  free pieces for every 20 we buy for our cash and carry inventory.

Along with the 10% I will give my hostesses these as well.
* 1 free item for hosting (with $50+ plus tax in sales)
* 1 free item for each party booked (given when their party is held)
* 1-3 free items if you refer someone and they become a consultant. 1 for $99 kit, 2 for $299 and 3 for $499
* Hostess Program: When a hostess has several parties a year, she gets a little more from me than my one night partiers*

As a Consultant, can I charge more than $1 or $5 plus tax for the products?
No. When you purchase jewelry from Paparazzi, you will be charged sales tax on the retail price of $1 or $5, even though you are purchasing it for a wholesale price. Paparazzi takes care of reporting/filing all the sales tax so you don’t have to. We recoup that extra charge if you want to add tax on each item. You are responsible for filing income taxes for the income you make on the jewelry. Consultants either sell their items for $1 or $5 flat or for $1 or $5 plus tax. It’s up to you which option you’d like to sell your items for. According to Paparazzi Policies and Procedures, we cannot advertise our items using the Paparazzi logo for more than $5 unless it says plus tax (same thing for the $1 items). We are also not allowed to sell our items for less than $1 or $5.

As a Consultant, how much money can I make?
Consultants order all jewelry and accessories for $2.75/per adult item, which you sell for $5.00 each. The Starlet Shimmer items are in sets of 10 for $5.00, which you sell for $1.00 each. You earn a 45% PROFIT off each piece of jewelry and hair accessory you sell. You can also earn commissions from your team members and their down line; 5% commission is earned from each consultant until you have 3 active, then you will start earning 10% commission for every jewelry order they place with Paparazzi. If they sign up consultants too, you earn 5% of their orders as well. As you advance in rank you are eligible for even more commissions. Read the “Commission Plan” for more details.

Here is an idea of what you can make in COMMISSIONS ALONE each month, not including the 45% profit:

Director: $100 – $300
Premier Director: $300 – $1,000
Executive Director- estimated at $1000-2000
Producer: $1,000 – $3,000
Premier Producer – estimated $2-3000
Executive Producer: $3,500 – $7,000
Fashionista: $5,000 – $13,000
A-Lister: $13,000 – $19,000
Maven A-Lister: $19,000 – $30,000
Jet-Setter: $25,000 – $40,000

Maintaining Active Consultant Status:
Order at least 200 PV (100 pieces) of inventory within the previous 12 consecutive calendar months.
You do NOT have to order every month. However, to be eligible for commissions from your down line, you must purchase at least 50 PV (25 pieces or 5 packs) per month, but it’s not required. (5 pieces)  = $68.75 (25 pieces) If, for some reason, you couldn't order a particular month you won’t lose your team members, unless it’s been over a year.
