Economic Downturn Presents Multiple Opportunities For Local Entrepreneurs
Candor, NY With the dark cloud of the financial and housing crisis hanging over the country, everyone is searching for a silver lining. Several residents of Candor think they have found it.
As a Creative Memories Consultant, Connie Cook has noticed two positive trends as she helps customers preserve their memories through digital photo books, traditional scrapbooks and wall displays.
“With higher prices and shrinking savings, people are traveling less and spending more time at home,” says Cook. “They're pulling those boxes of photos out of the closet, digging into the digital photos on their computers and finally arranging them into beautiful and meaningful pages.”
But an increasing number of photo-conscious customers isn't the only factor that has helped this independent sales consultant expand her business. “When the dollar doesn't stretch as far as it used to, families look for ways to supplement their income,” she says.
“Making extra money doing something you love can be very appealing. And this kind of direct-selling business provides a very flexible work schedule. I've noticed a tremendous increase in the number of people who ask me about joining the business.”
Amy Robinson of the Direct Selling Association confirms Cook's recent experience. “Whether people are looking for a new source of income or just want to supplement their monthly budget, they are often drawn to direct selling.
The flexibility of direct selling offers options for people in many different situations - and as a result can be particularly appealing during an economic downturn.”
Cook and several other direct selling consultants will be hosting a business opportunity fair on Saturday, March 14 from 10:00am 3:00pm at the McKendree Methodist Church, 224 Owego St. Candor.
