Frequently Asked Questions

Is party plan pyramid selling?
No. It's a legal and ethical business system that can be fun and very lucrative. It's used by companies like Virgin, Tupperware (in fact they invented party plan) and Kleeneze. Products are passed directly from the manufacturer to the consumer, bypassing all the middlemen. The savings are paid to teams of distributors in the form of commission or profit.

How do I earn my commission/profit?
Start by holding a party plan party or have a coffee morning and invite some of your friends who have children round, family and/or neighbours. It's best to have at least 10 people at every party but that's not always possible, so just try to get as many as you can. When they're there show them your range of toys and let them have a look at the catalogues. Encourage them to purchase toys from you, but the toys will pretty much sell themselves, you should only have to do the minimum encouraging.
At this 'event' get some friends or relatives to host another party for you and from there your party plan business grows as you sell toys at each party and book other parties.
And remember - talk about our products and party plan scheme everywhere you go.

How much will I earn?
You make 35% profit on all your personal sales.
This is given as a 35% discount on the retail price of the toys you order. When you place your order for toys purchased at your parties your order you will automatically receive a 35% discount so long as you are signed in as a Toys to You party plan consultant.
eg. If you sell £300 retail price of toys at a party then you will make £105 profit/discount.

Am I under pressure to sell a minimum amount each month?
Yes, you have to order at least £75 of toys per month. This is to ensure that all our party plan consultants are serious about making money from their party plan business.

Who Do My Customer Pay?
Your customers pay you for their toys when they order. You then order the items from us. You will be charged the 35% discounted price when you order and you keep the remainder that was paid to you by your customers.
Eg. Your total party plan orders come to £600 you place your order with us and are charged just £390 for the toys. You have earned £210.

Is there a minimum order value?
No.

Do I have to know lots of people?
No. However, in order to grow your business you need to try to secure new party bookings at each party you attend. We provide free information on how to market your Toys to You party plan business when you sign up as a consultant.

How much will it cost me to get started?
We're cheaper than most of the party plan businesses out there with our kits starting from only £75 for our silver kit up to £160 for our platinum kit. And each kit includes 20 free catalogues.
Each sample kit is worth at least 2 times the cost price in retail value.
We have no registration fees or membership fees and will never have.
*Please note that you do not own your sample kit until you have reached £500 in sales. Once you have reached this milestone your sample kit is yours and you never have to return it to us.*

Can I build a team?
Not currently but this is something we are considering for the future.

Are there any risks?
Yes! If you are not able to market your business then your sample kit will be a wasted investment.
In order to establish a successful business you will need to have some marketing and sales abilities or take advantage of our free marketing information to learn these skills.
You should expect to spend a significant amount of your time marketing your business and finding party hosts.
The success of your business is not contingent on a few friends hosting a party. If you want a successful business you should expect to:
- tell everyone you know about what you do
- hand out leaflets everywhere you go
- keep existing customers informed about new collections and promotions
- add to your sample kit with new toys as they come out
