Organic Product Consumers - Opinions Needed?

Hello - I am considering opening an organic beauty and cosmetics distributorship. It is similar to an Avon business, however, the products are USDA certified organic. The products and company are GREAT - offer skincare, cosmetics, household. However, the only concern is that the price points are higher than drugstore type products. The lipsticks are about $20, skincare basic package about $100. However, given the current market and concerns of "green" living in our country, I wonder if there is a market for the right consumer. Can you help me do some consumer buying research by giving me your opinion! Thank you.

Organic Product Consumers - Opinions Needed?
First off, you need to look at your cost to start up this business, monthly cost to operate it, and minimum monthly sales needs. It sounds like an MLM, and if it is, some of them can be almost dreadful to keep up!


If you think you can meet the minimum demands required for this business, I say go for it. MLM can be great if you work it. Don't expect it to just fall into your hands though, it's going to take time and effort.


You can contact me if you need to for additional information on MLM and Network Marketing. I can give you some great informational websites and also great businesses that don't require too much from you to start or keep going.


I've been thru too many to count, and have only found one to suite me.
Reply:I do green household products, reusable bags, orgainic fruit, drive a very small amount and commuite and car pool. I love makeup thou. I love MAC etc. The only reason I do not have orgainic makeup is because I never seen any with bright colours, shiny gloss and I have never been able to test any. It always looks dull and costs too much.





Now if I could get what I want in organic lines, I think I would make the switch. I love green products and keeping myself healthy.





Good luck, I think this is a great idea.
Reply:It's the perfect time for it! Green and organic are at their most trendy, so it's an excellent time to start building a customer base. Throw in the term "hypo-allergenic" and you've sold me (and others, I'm sure)! Your market may be more with the department store shoppers than the drug store ones, though, to keep comparable price points. Good luck!
Reply:i do the green orgainc thing, those who do it for sincere reasons know they can make super cheap products and that there are great ones out there at all price points, however, i have a friend who sells products you are describing for fun and enjoys it, its all about your market and knowing friends to have parties- and making sure those friend currently pay $20.00 for lipstick
Reply:That would be expensive, Bare Minerals does not even charge that much for a lipstick and their great! I like where your coming from though, that is a very good idea! Best of luck to you!
