How often do you work?
I am currently working as a Team Manager and work between 10-15 hours per week. An Edelweiss/ENJO consultant can expect to work between 3-8 hours per week. For those with small children it is a great opportunity.
How does the job fit around your family life?
Really well. I fit the business around my family, not the other way around. But I do enjoy the independence that it gives me and of course the extra income. I will do demo's mainly during the week (evenings or day time) . If I have something I have to do on a certain day with my family I just book a customer in for another day when I am free.
How much time do you commit?
If I do a home demo it really is a social evening or daytime meet up and can be around 1 - 2 hours. But with the Edelweiss it is such a great everyday product range, that I can sell 1-2-1, through friends and neighbours, fetes and fairs are also great ways to promote the products. Therefore time wise it can be as much or as little as you want to do, but I warn you it does become addictive! Of course my existing ENJO customers also love the products and are buying into this brand. Edelweiss is something that you can sell alongside other products and businesses that you are involved in. As the products form part of daily hygiene the potential for repeat business (like ENJO) is really great. So I find the whole business model very effective in managing my time and my life.
Do you need a car?
Normally ENJO aims to ensure its consultants only carry out demonstrations within a 6-9 mile radius of their own home. Having a car is handy, but not essential.
Do you advertise?
ENJO provide all the marketing material I need. Some ENJO consultants can advertise if they wish but we find that Head Office do enough Marketing to support the brand. It is only for local media that one would advertise. Also we are now able to draw on the support of the ENJO brand which is very well known and therefore people are keen to hear about the new Edelweiss addition.
How did you hear about the job?
I am already a Team Manager with ENJO and it was just so natural to add the Edelweiss range to my business. I was initially attracted to ENJO after trying the products and becoming completely hooked. ENJO fits in perfectly with my lifestyle primarily that we should all be 'doing our bit' for the environment but without compromising on results! In business terms, becoming a consultant was the obvious way forward for me to ease myself gently back into the world of work after taking time off to have my children and see them through their early years. There are no hard to meet targets and the support I receive from Head Office is fantastic. My ENJO work fits around the children, which is particularly important since my husband's job involves lots of travelling. I love the fact that I can (and do!) put things on hold if we get an unexpected sunny day and I want to take the kids to the beach it allows me a great quality of life, a much needed 2nd income and a clear conscience! I'm constantly meeting great people and I feel privileged that I can earn money by doing something I feel passionate about.
Do you get support/training?
The company offer great training. When you join you are given a training manual and there are seminars and road shows to make sure everyone is kept up to date with new products and company developments. Also telephone and email support from head office is constant. You can also join the ENJO brand once on board, and many people might find this another useful means of income and embrace a great product range.
Are there any downsides to the role?
None that I can think of. I love it!
Would you recommend this opportunity to other Mums?
Without hesitation, I believe in the ENJO brand and the ENJO Lifestyle.
