Thank you.
First let us congratulate those very few good third party consultants that we have met along the way that still stay true to their customer and believe in honesty and sincerity. From all of us here at GoPurse, we applaud you. Thank you.
Third Party Consultants Vs GoPurse Consultants.
Third Party Consultants: Third party consultants must pay for the merchandise upfront before they can sell you anything. They must sell the product quickly before it goes out of style or they're stuck with it. That's why most of them are so pushy.
GoPurse Consultants: Our consultants sell our merchandise at no cost to them. That's why they are so bubbly and happy.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Third Party Consultants: Third Party Consultants seem to always push the old product rather than the new one. That's because they buy the old product at clearance prices and they can make more money when selling at the regular retail price of when they were in style.
GoPurse Consultants: Our consultants bring you what's on your wishlist, not what's on clearance.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Third Party Consultants: All a person needs to do is buy a resellers purse package from the third party company to become their qualified area "consultant" and off to your home they go.
GoPurse Consultants: GoPurse is a family owned business and we meet and interview all our applicants before they become our consultants. We make sure they have the right energy, personality and attitude to qualify as a GoPurse consultant. From time to time our own staff volunteer themselves to do purse party consultation (they love it). Who is more knowledgeable of our merchandise than our very own GoPurse.com staff? It's also a great way to get feedback about our products and services.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Third Party Consultants: Most of them are just starting out as at part time job for extra cash and have very limited merchandise since they have to pay for their own merchandise upfront.
GoPurse Consultants: At GoPurse, this is our full time job. This is what we do. This is what we specialize in. We will never be limited. With a GoPurse consultant by your side, you and your guests will have hundreds of styles and colors to choose from.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Third Party Consultants: They can only offer you what their company sell's them, nothing more. Special request will fall on deaf ear.
GoPurse Consultants: All of our consultants report directly to GoPurse CEO Danielle Eby. She is diligently looking for the next hottest styles and colors and any special request a customer might have you better believe that she will do her best to fulfill that wish.

Don't leave a successful purse party up to chance.
Don't cut corners by booking with a consultant that waves a booking fee. Remember this small fee is only to hold your scheduled date and it is refundable. Don't take chances booking with a consultant hired by a third purse party company from across the country that might know very little about this person besides their paid membership fee.
Here's how to spot third party consultants.
Third party consultants are usually in public purse party forums looking for hostesses. They are always leaving their so called business website link on the bottom of the post. But in reality is just like a myspace web page link. Example: www.PurseSite.com/JaneDoe. As if this was not enough; they leave you with their email by free email account companies like Yahoo, aol, netscape, msn and gmail (Example: JaneDoe3654@aol.com). Truly unprofessional. This email approach could lead to scams. Trust consultants with their company's email only (example: JaneDoe@PurseSite.com).
Some purse companies even allow their so called "consultants" to update their own page thus leaving hostesses and guests open for scams, false claims and promises they can never deliver. We've even seen these so called "consultants" use their web page to advertise their own side products and website that has nothing to do with the company they are representing and they are getting away with it .
Why and how can they pull this off?
Well, it's very easy when the company that hired them as a "consultant" doesn't even monitor their own"consultants" web pages. These companies only care and monitor how many packages they sell to their so called "consultants", not the extreme measures they take to sell them.

Home Business Scams: How To Report Fraudulent Activity
These tips will help you avoid being the victim of a scam. If you find yourself in the unfortunate position of losing money to a company involved in fraudulent business activities follow the links provided to report the offending party.
1. Check for complaints filed against a company with the Better Business Bureau at http://www.bbb.org. This is a good first step to research the manner in which a company does business with its customers and clients. You should also browse scam listings posted at http://www.scambusters.org and http://www.ripoffreport.com. You can avoid wasting your time on a bad opportunity, not to mention your money, by doing this research right up front.
2. Be extremely cautious of anyone asking you to send money. If someone is asking you to send in money then they are NOT offering a job. They are offering an opportunity, which is not the same thing. Employers pay employees, not the other way around. Work-at-home scams are often presented to appear as if you are being offered a job, since people are more trusting of job offerings as opposed to a simple opportunity.
3. You should be able to get complete disclosure about an opportunity before sending money. All your questions should be answered in full. Many home business scams are designed to persuade you to sign up immediately before the questions you should be asking are not apparent to you. Take your time. Be leery of promises of big money. If it sounds too good to be true, then err on the side of caution and assume it's not true.
4. If you decide an opportunity is worth paying for, always use a credit card. You can dispute a charge on your credit card, but will be hard-pressed to get a refund from a company or person with fraudulent intentions.
5. Make sure you can communicate easily with the company offering the home business opportunity. They should have a phone number available for inquiries, and at the very least an email address with reasonably fast response times. They should also have a physical address and not just a post office box.
6. Investigate the opportunity by talking to people who have experience working with the company. Find out if their experience is favorable. Be suspicious of any company that does not provide you with references. Never take on faith any claims made by the company. If you feel yourself being pulled into a trusting frame of mind, recall the indictment Ronald Reagan loved to intone: "Trust, then verify."
7. Trust consultants with their company's email only (example: JaneDoe@PurseSite.com).
8. If you find yourself the victim of a home business scam, you should ask the business for a refund. If they are resistant to returning your money, inform them of your intention to notify the authorities. If you are lucky enough to get your money back, you should still report the fraudulent practices of the offending company to the following entities:
*National Fraud Information Center
*Your state's Attorney General
*United States Postal Service (fraud perpetrated by mail)
