LikeWear® is a modern day fusion of a high quality, casual boutique children’s clothing line and a more traditional party plan direct sales company. We offer a flexible, fun way to have your own clothing “store” without the risk of carrying inventory.
As the first and only direct sales company to focus on selling officially licensed products, we offer merchandise that is completely unique to the party plan business. Yet, unlike many other items sold in this channel, our merchandise doesn’t require much demonstration as its designs feature family friendly, super well-known brands like Lucky Charms, Tootsie Roll, Jr. Mints, Dots, Honda motorcycles, the Pillsbury Doughboy and many others. So rather than presenting, our Independent Sales Representatives simply help people shop for “what they like”!
And we’ve got a lot to like! From lovable characters and package art, to exclusive designs and unique twists on popular culture, we’ve created 100+ images that can be mixed and matched with different garment bodies and colors. This makes for fabulous fun and a unique twist at parties when our reps help their customers design!
LikeWear was founded by mompreneur, Lisa Gold, in April, 2007 when she decided she wanted something a little more fulfilling than coordinating carpools. What started as a keen idea to embellish children’s clothes in her kitchen, has turned into a fast-growing direct sales company that is looking for founding representatives to help it expand nationally. LikeWear is a proud member of the Direct Selling Association (www.dsa.org) and more information can be found at www.likewear.com.
Products Offered: LikeWear offers high quality, casual apparel and accessories featuring products, brands and “pop culture” references that are popular with mothers and their children. In addition to our catalog offerings, our 100+ images can be mixed and matched with different “bodies” (T-Shirts, Tanks, Shorts, Underwear, Sweatshirts, Flannels, Pants, Dresses, Bags, etc.) and colors to make customized combinations.
Years in Business: 3+
Commission Structure: Base Retail Profit of 25% on personal sales with the ability to earn up to 35%. Build a team and earn even more with Level and Generation Bonuses. We also offer a lucrative Fast Start program as well as monthly sales incentives and contests.
Cost to Join: Our Core Collection Kit is $249 and contains 17 sample pieces plus starter business materials (retail value of more than $600).
Hostess Program: One of the best ways to sell LikeWear is to have someone invite their friends over and host a “party” for you. So we provide the following benefits to your party hosts as an enticement and a thank you:
- 10% of party sales in merchandise credit (a.k.a. free stuff!)
- One 1/2 price item for hosting & another for every $300 in sales!
- One free white T ($18 value) customized with any LikeWear image for every $250 in sales!
- LikeWear gift certificates for each confirmed party booking!
Can you earn your kit? Yes. For a small shipping fee, we’ll send you catalogs so you can have a “Catalog Party” or simply show the catalog to friends, business associates, or family and collect enough orders to earn your kit.
Can you earn trips, vehicles, etc? Although we do not currently offer trips or vehicles, we do offer other incentives (i.e., cash bonus, gift cards, electronics, discounted merchandise, etc.)
What is the cost of supplies? Minimal.
Monthly Minimums: No monthly minimums on personal sales. 0/month in MSRP sales to qualify as active for downline bonuses.
Advertising Restrictions: Yes, but they relate more to the artwork and copy of the ad than the placement because we have licensing deals in place with major national brands (i.e., General Mills, Tootsie Roll, Honda, etc.)
Are websites offered? Yes (and it’s currently free)
Can customers order online? Yes.If you’d like to learn more, please download our Opportunity Brochure
