How did you get started in your line of work?

I am a Computer/Accounting Consultant by nature. The corporate world had started to get the best of me. I had no control over my time or schedule and I wanted to spend more time with my family and friends.

So I quit my job and got started selling beauty products. That soon turned into selling adult sensual products for women for Fantasia. If beauty products helped women feel beautiful, why not adult toys to help women feel sensual and comfortable about their sensuality?

Did you ever think you would be doing what you are doing?

Having my own business yes, but the product line. . . not in a million years!!! I grew up in a strict Puerto Rican Catholic household. Can you imagine??!!

What personality type is best for your line of work?

Women who are fun, comfortable, open, adventurous, and non-judgmental about sex.

What is the best thing about your profession? The worst?

I can set my own hours and the days I want to work. No need to keep inventory. The products are in demand. I make money and have fun! But the best is helping women lower their shame, fear, guilt and ignorance about sex. All women are sensual creatures and are allowed pleasure. It’s very fulfilling and it thrills me to hear them say ‘thank you.’ I love what I do. The worst is when refuse to allow themselves pleasure.

Describe a typical day on this job:

The presentations I do are usually at the hostess’ home where she has invited 10 or more of her female friends. These presentations are exclusively and only for women. As soon as I start the presentation, the giggling begins. Soon after that, the uncomfortable becomes the very comfortable. During my presentation, I educate and explain many myths that surround female and male sexuality. Women get to see, smell, taste, and feel delicious lotions, creams, luscious lingerie, and adult novelties available through Fantasia Home Parties. The hostess gets to choose her favorite items and earn them free by doing a party. Guests will appreciate the comfort of shopping for intimate and sensual products in the privacy of a friend’s home. To insure confidentiality, all orders are taken in private.

What advice do you have

for someone that wants to change careers and do what you do?

If you have a desire to earn, supplement, or enhance your income, or are looking to expand your horizons beyond home and family, these parties can provide a profitable and fun way of earning money that suits your individual needs. You determine just how big your paycheck will be, and there is no limit to how much money you can make.
