No Experience Necessary to Own a Home-Based, Affordable, and Fun Business

Margaret Robitaille bought her Mark Five jewelry distributorship 2 ½ years ago. “I had previously worked in management for a large retailer, as well as having experience in the merchandising and design industries. I was looking for something I could do at my own pace, on my own schedule. One day, I was looking in the newspaper at businesses for sale and I discovered Mark Five. I liked the type of business it was. It was a reasonable investment and when I met the people at the home office, I really liked them.”

Margaret has chosen to work on a part-time basis and she enjoys an extremely flexible schedule. She has built up a portfolio of 40 small businesses that she distributes her jewelry to. She spends most of her time visiting her clients, who are all local to her, and re-ordering stock as necessary. “There’s very little paperwork with this business. This is a very simple business to run. You receive a solid framework and you are able to jump off and evolve your business to be as large as you would like it to be. You have a lot of freedom with Mark Five. It’s a distributorship, so you can expand as far as you’d like.”

Margaret was looking for a business that offered all of the following and Mark Five met all of her needs:

A Fun and Exciting Business to Be Involved In…

Mark Five’s wide variety of affordable jewelry is fun to sell and extremely popular with customers and retailers as Margaret explained, “There are some many ways to spend disposable income these days. Costume jewelry is a booming market and our products are so easy to sell. There’s a broad variety of stores and places we can sell to. I have chosen to work with small business owners only because I enjoy establishing relationships with business owners. I sell to women’s consignment stores, women’s clothing stores, hair and nail salons, and tanning salons. Some distributors sell at flea markets and shows as well.”

A Complete, Turnkey Business: No Experience is Necessary
 
“This business is simple to learn. There’s a real simplicity to it. Anyone can do it,” explained Margaret. Mark Five offers distributors everything they need to get started and even sets up accounts with retailers in their area. They also offer unparalleled support whenever distributors need advice or have questions; “I can always reach the home office via phone or email if I have questions about products or orders.”

You do not need previous experience as a business owner or in the retail industry to succeed with Mark Five but you do need networking and relationship skills as Margaret explained, “My business has been successful because I am good at building relationships with business owners. Much of what I do is foster relationships and then one business will refer me to another. To be successful in this business, you must rely on yourself and your personality. My clients trust me and that has helped me to succeed.”   

An Affordable Business that Delivers What It Promises

Margaret said, “Many people choose low investment businesses thinking it will lead to a certain lifestyle and a flexible schedule. Mark Five really delivers what it promises. It’s been a good fit for me. The company is well-established. They’ve been at the same address for many years. They put a lot of care into what they do and they are truly a company with good values.”
