where this can lead to or take you to. Maybe you have 10 friends in your
contact list that are thinking about buying a new bed, but you just don’t know
about it. So take the chance and do everything you possibly can to get your
catalog out there.

THE BIG QUESTION


How much do I get paid?
We pay you weekly, every end of the week, we pay you your commission. Note,
payments can be made on a Friday, Saturday, or Sunday.
We pay you R300 commission per bed you sell.
BUT, when you are starting to sell more and more products, your commission
will start to get more and more.
Imagine selling 10 beds in a week, that is R3000 rands, IN A WEEK!!
