Looking for success stories from folks who have experience in direct sales. Have you ever done direct sales with an at-home business like Pampered Chef, Mary Kay, Creative Memories, Tastefully Simple or the like?

I'm curious about a few things:

*Up front costs for new consultants
*Profit margins (I know that some are 20% while others are 50%...but which are which?)
*Pushiness of uplines/directors
*Hidden costs (i.e. purchasing catalogs, websites, sales slips)...those little things that add up
*Avg time of a home party
*Monthly avg direct sales income (i.e. is it worth it?)

Thanks for all input!
