Pros

none whatsoever -the leader of the office is nice

Cons

job is almost impossible unless all your friends are millionaires. Everyone has already been prospected. Quality of introductory line of fabrics is terrible and a complete rip off for clients. Constant price increases for pieces. MLM scam for getting you to buy thousands of dollars of their clothes.

Without being argumentative, we do like to take the opportunity when relevant to point out to any potential reader’s feedback that is factually incorrect. While we appreciate feedback of any variety, it is also important to be factual: - MLMs or "pyramid schemes" by nature are companies that build revenue through representative fees in addition to actual product sales. An MLM will typically charge for training/conferences, offer no benefits, hire only 1099 contractors, and in some cases require representatives to commit to purchasing a certain amount of product. By contrast, Tom James covers training 100%, including two week-long international conferences to locations like the JW Marriott-Marco Island and the Hilton Downtown Austin. All expense paid for the employee. We provide fully comprehensive medical coverage, a robust benefits program, and our employees are W2'd employees. We offer a traditional 401(k) matching program, employee ownership, and a profit sharing program where we share our profits back to the employees at the end of each year. Yes, we are a direct sales company, but no, we are not an MLM or pyramid-style company.

Pros

Not only is there unlimited opportunity/commission, but there’s unlimited personal development. The leaders constantly are challenging me to think with principles, think big for my goals, and giving me resources to achieve those goals. The people I get to serve for my clients are to top division makers, influencers, and income earners in Austin and I’m honored that they trust us to serve them.

Cons

Building a business requires thinking big, thinking strategically, and getting out of my comfort zone. As with any business, the better you do the more problems you face and are challenges to solve.
