You could let people sign up as a free affiliate and give them a referral link to the AVVH website. They could market that link all over the web, and get a percentage of sales; you could let them sell the products with a mailing piece that they could download and print up, and mail to a list of prospective buyers, either for the products or a home business opportunity; you could partner with a print and mail company that also manages different mailing lists and they could print and mail your mailing piece for you, either a brochure, or letter or postcard, and you can have them mail to either the prospective buyers of the products or of those interested in a home business opportunity. Now, I know there is the distributorship, but perhaps, for some people they feel the monthly fee is perhaps something they can't afford, or perhaps, the price of the distributorship may be too much for them, a free affiliate gives them the opportunity to sell AVVH's products without the upfront fees; they can advertiser their website link all over the web, like backpages or craigslist, or any number of free venues, like an Amazon affiliate, and promote AVVH's website, its products, and as a home business, like many entrepreneurs do all over the web; there are many different, possible variations on the distributorship theme, and like you have stated a la AVON; the key is to get as many possible advertisers for the products as you can, and a free affiliate opportunity would give you that. There are many savvy marketers who are always looking for great products to sell, and a home business opportunity that they can really sink their teeth into; a free affiliate gives anyone a chance to do just that; at the same time your opening up a huge market for the products AVVAA sells. Exposure is the key. Like AVON, make it easy to get started, and easy to sell. A free affiliate would be part of that. The people who can afford the monthly autoship, and the initial cost of the distributorship can still do that, but the ones who can't would have a way to become involved in a home business type of situation, and there would be more people to try to sell AVVAA's products and at the same time, profiting themselves, financially. I know of many print and mail companies that partner with different businesses to provide mailing lists, mailing pieces, even taking care of all the postage and delivery to the post office, and affiliates can take advantage of those services, if they cared to, spending whatever they could afford to promote AVVAA's products and any distributorship or home business opportunity associated with them. Your comparison to AVON reminded me of that possibility. Imagine, if people could sign up for free to be an affiliate, and had an easy way to promote the company, its products, and a home business opportunity associated with it, by letting a print and mail company do all the work; or if they chose, they could mail the promotional material themselves. You could promote AVVAA's products, or as a home business; either way, it's win win. There are many people who know how to sell online, and there are many ways they can do it for free; if they can afford the home business, they could spend their money advertising and promoting, wherever they wanted, or however they wanted; they could afford to promote the company's products, and home business opportunity, every day, every week, every month; referral links are easy to post all over the web; and there are many other ways to promote products or home business opportunities online, or off. More people would promote AVVH, and its products; if you got a heavy-hitter or heavy-hitters, who knows how much AVVAA would sell. My point is, get as many people as you can promoting the products, and a free business opportunity opens the way for those with a lot of money to spend, or for those on a limited budget. AVON appeals to many people who want to sell products for a living, from the housewife, to the businesswoman. More people selling for you, more ways for them to sell for you, means more exposure for your company, the company's products, and the opportunity to sell those products.
