Well with that being stated feel free to let me provide my contact information and I can help you finally get started fulfilling these desires in the appropriate times requested or sooner lol ♡♡I am new consultant and single mother that is attempting to reach out any means possible to turn my 2yr old newly purchased usborne book collection into more then a library for him.. shooting for monthly deposits into his college fund. And maybe school clothing funds for the future years.. so I know this comment is long past old but I’m down for roping in new customers with all ideas.. cause I want a future for my toddler and his 10 yr old brother and success has to start somewhere right ?

Or maybe they can’t swing $15 for one book when you can get amazing books at the library for FREE.

What a rude post. Ew.

This. Except you forgot the quotes around “parties”

Are you mentally retarded??? Usborne did not pay her to say this. She’s just a stupid blogger writing a stupid post. Don’t take that out on a great company.

Natalie is right, shipping is very fast these days. I think there is value in books from everywhere, library, walmart, and Usborne included. 🙂

Here’s why you shouldn’t buy from Usborne Books: There are already too many great books out in the world that you cannot possibly get to. You do not need to buy some random books that a company is peddling when you can focus on exposing your kids to a whole world of wonderful books already there? Why buy from some hokey telemarketer company when you can purchase from an number of wonderful independent book store? Or better yet, visit a public library.

I enjoyed this post! I love the sarcasm and it sure made me wonder before I started reading 🙂 I’m a consultant and joined just last July. I took a good break from the company over the winter for personal reasons with my family situation, but am now back on track and let me tell you, the shipping has COMPLETELY changed! They’ve really made some huge changes in customer service!! 1. Shipments in all my parties from the last 3 months (and I have a good 4-5 parties a month) have had zero mistakes. 2. Shipments have been arriving before I even close out the party 3 days after the party began! It’s crazy how fast the shipping is now compared to last fall (that was a ROUGH season!). They have really changed a great deal in the company over this past year. I just wanted to put my 2 cents in as this business is truly making a WORLD of a difference in my family as I get to stay home part time because of the money I’m able to make when people buy from me rather than amazon. I wish you well in your future and just had to share the good news and changes of the company 🙂

It’s up to do to decide. The signup cost is really a great way to score a bunch of books for a lot less (though you don’t get to pick what you get), so you won’t really lose out any money in that regard, and chances are your first launch party will go well with friends and family wanting to support you. So, it’s a bit of a wash.

However, if you want to really make it a BUSINESS and find true success, you’ll have to work hard, and deal with quite a bit of frustration with the company itself as things get messed up and it takes forever to get through to customer service, etc.

What happened? You are no longer a consultant? I was thinking about signing up, but am wishy washy…
