"Discover An Amazing Way To Work From Home, Make Jaw Dropping Profits and Spend More Time With Your Family"


"Especially If You're Retired Or Want To Be A Stay At Home Mom"


Dear Friend,
 

If you'd like to finally quit your job and be able to spend more time with your family, this might be the most important letter you'll ever read.

 

My name is Janice Guarneri and not only am I Friendly Folks dealer, but for 10 years, I've been helping retired folks, college students, stay at home moms, 9-5 corporate people, single moms and just about anyone else you can think of realize their dream of a starting a successful home business

Like you, I really wanted to spend more time with my family and make my own hours.  But with two small children,  I needed to find a way to bring in extra money so that my kids don't look like they live in a homeless shelter. 

Let me ask you something.

 

Does it sometimes drive you crazy to be at work when all you want to do is be home with your family?
 

Do you wish you could take a day off  (or leave early) whenever you wanted to?
 

Has your child ever been sick, yet you can't leave the office?
 

Doesn't it make you furious knowing that you could probably be making 5 times what you're making now if you could just find a home business that really delivers on its promise?

"Hi Janice, I just wanted to let you know how much fun the kids and I are having.  I didn't think there was anything that I could do from home with 4 kids.  Then I saw Friendly Folks at a show in Dallas and called you guys.  Now I go to shows and Kaitlyn (my youngest) brings in all the customers.  All I have to do is stand there! "

Do You Find Most Business Opportunities Boring or Difficult?  I Do!
 

 

I wanted to start my own business.

So I started looking through every "Business Startup" magazine. 

I made phone calls...I spent hours looking at websites....

But the more I researched, the more confused I got.  It just seemed like there was nothing that seemed right for me

I couldn't see myself cleaning carpets, selling vitamins, bothering my friends and family to buy stuff or removing dents from cars. I wanted something that would fit my personality and interests.

Are you tired of reading ads for multi-level companies?  Or expensive franchises?  How about those get rich quick schemes where you're promised to make $50,000 a month if you send someone $29.95?  Yea right!  I might not be the sharpest tool in the shed but I'm not that dumb.

It seemed everyone just wanted my hard earned money!



You're Not Going To Believe What Happened!



As you can tell, my search for the perfect home business didn't turn out too well.

 

So I gave up.  That's right!  I just gave up and took a receptionist job here at Friendly Folks that I found in the help wanted section. But little did I know.... My luck was changing.

 

When I first walked in, I noticed these cartoon pictures all over the place.  And frankly I had no idea what they were.  But they sure were cute!  This is one of my favorites...Isn't it too cute?





There's actually OVER 500 TITLES!

All Kinds of Occupations

Sports

Hobbies


Family Pictures

 

What The Heck Do You Do With Them?

Scott sat down with me and explained that the company has dealers who sell these cartoons at craft shows, malls, fundraising events, schools, the Internet and lots of other places.  They have a computer program that allows you to personalize the cartoons and turn them into lots of things.  Here are a few:
 

Framed Pictures
 



 

Keychains


 

 

Mousepads

 

You can also creat t-shirts, baseball caps, tote bags, coffee mugs and a whole lot more!


 

 

Hmmm?  Can I Do This Too?

 

So I started my receptionist job.  And naturally all day long I was on the phone.  And if you've called the office you know I like to talk!
 

 

Well, during the course of a day, not only would I take orders and handle customer service, but I would listen to dealers tell me stories of how their business was going.  And wow, was I surprised!

People were consistently making money with Friendly Folks.  And I'm not talking about slick MBA grads.  I heard stories from all different kinds of people.

 

 

 
  • Retired folks who had no idea how to use a computer.
     

  • Ex-corporate executives who were used to making 6 figure salaries.
     

  • Moms who were overjoyed to finally be working from home.
     

  • Families who would all work together.  Kids included.
     

  • Folks looking for an exciting career change.
     

  • Couples who already ran a business and wanted to add another product.

 


 

 

The more I listened, the more I realized that I could do this too.  And one day I finally had my chance!

 

Scott was scheduled to set up at an arts and crafts show but had to cancel at the last second because of a scheduling conflict.  Anyway, I convinced him to let me do the show.  He agreed as long as I promised to not leave my job.  Apparently I was a pretty good receptionist!

 

Well, let me just say that even though I really had no idea what I was doing, the show was awesome .  I just set up a display, sat behind the table and waited for orders.  And soon enough, they came!

I was amazed. 

I figured out the key to doing well.  Don't bother people.  Don't ask them "Can I help you" the minute they start looking at the cartoons.  Let them look around.  Let them come to you with questions.

 

And I did one other thing that was smart (one of the dealers told me about this). I put a sticker with my name and number on the back of each picture and because of that, I received additional orders for months.

Well, I became a full fledged dealer but kept my promise of not quitting my job.  And over the years I've made a ton of money as a dealer and eventually moved up in the company.  I'm not telling you this to brag or be snooty.  I'm telling you this because as a result of my experiences, I know I can help you start your own business and finally make as much money (or even more) than me!  I've done it and I've helped people from all over the globe do it as well.

 

Office workers, factory workers, the old, the young, dancers, mechanics, homemakers, grandmas, students, construction workers, secretaries, retail store clerks and everyone else!

But it's no accident that people have been successful with Friendly Folks.  They've all had one thing in common.  What's that?

 

They enjoy being a Friendly Folks dealer! 


The Secret Finally Revealed!

 

If you've ever wondered what the single most important factor is in a home business, what makes all the difference in the world, I can tell you, without a doubt -- it's a love of what you do.  That's because the single most important ingredient of any business is....
action.

Listen closely. You could spend hours and hours doing research, then spend a bundle getting your business started.  And then spend even more money promoting it like crazy -- but all the money and time in the world isn't going to do much good if you don't love it.  Because without passion there's no action.  And without action, there's no business. 

 

  • Do you wake up every morning excited about what challenges and opportunities await you?
     

  • Have you thought about how wonderful your life would be if you actually enjoyed your work?
     

  • Imagine feeling secure about your financial situation
     

  • Imagine always having more than enough money to pay your bills
     

  • Imagine being able to buy that special something that you know you deserve
     

  • Can you picture yourself the President of your own company?
     

  • What would it mean if you could be at home with your children?
     

  • How would you like a residual income that keeps making you money with very little effort?



    How Does It Work?

     

When you become a Friendly Folks dealer, you decide how and when you want to work. Here are a few ideas...


Arts & Craft Shows
 

Arts and craft shows are one of the easiest ways to make money with Friendly Folks.  You set up a simple display, sit back and wait for people to approach you to place orders. It's really that easy.  As a matter of fact, if you are aggressive and try and sell to people, they actually will be less interested. 

 

Craft shows are inexpensive to get into (average $35) and actually are a lot of fun to do.  Yes, I guess it's still considered "work", but you're just hanging out, talking to people and taking orders.




Malls


If you want to go for it and make the big bucks, a mall kiosk is the way to go.  A good location can generate over $50,000 during the Christmas holiday season.  And that's just one location!  However, you need to be aware that these days, the rents are not cheap.  But call and speak to myself or Scott if you're interested.  We've had company kiosks for the past ten years and personally know many of the "key players" in the industry.  So if there's a location that you want to get into, chances are we know someone who can make it happen.

 

 

 

Never Leave Your Home!

 

There are plenty of ways to make money without ever leaving your house.  Now I think a little fresh air will do you good every now and then, but hey, that's up to you!

Fundraising- Schools and other organizations like the uniqueness and diversity of Friendly Folks.  It's certainly different than chocolate and wrapping paper and with over 500 titles there's something for everyone!

 

Internet- I'm sure you know a lot about this since you're on it right now!  But with a great website, online and offline marketing, the Internet can be a big money maker.

Here are some other ideas...

 

  • Local Gift Shops
     

  • Realtors
     

  • Music schools
     

  • Ballet schools
     

  • Hospital Gift Shops
     

  • Golf and Tennis Pro Shops
     

  • Martial Arts Academy's
     


Your imagination is the limit!

As the amount of titles have increased, there has been more and more interest from these types of businesses to offer something unique to their customers.  As our local dealer, that puts you in the center of the action!
 

 

 

Could This Happen To You...?


It's 9:00 am on Monday morning and you just finished breakfast with your kids.  Before they've even swallowed their last gulp of food, they're off on a mission to have as much fun with their toys and destroy your house..... even more than yesterday!

 

You smile to yourself thinking about how wonderful it is to be home with them. 

It's now 10:08 am and you hear the sweet sound of the fax machine ringing.  How many will it be today?  Eight?  Twelve like last Monday?  Hmmm.  You wait and watch the papers slowly exit into the tray. 

 

You think back to the time that you sent the sample cartoon and cover letter to the local real estate office offering them a fantastic gift to give away to new home buyers.  After all, the whole fruit basket thing is kind of boring by now.

 

At first you weren't sure what the response would be.  But you remember how excited you were when they called back and told you that they thought it was a great idea.  Wow! What a pleasant surprise!

 

And that was the hard part!

 

Since then, you love that fax machine!
 

After all the days orders come through you pile them neatly on your desk and wait for the right time to finish them.  Each day it's a little different and you love having that flexibility.

 

It's now 2:10 and your kids are taking a short nap.  You grab that pile of orders, which today totaled 9, and one by one, print them out on your computer.  It's so easy that it only takes about 10 minutes to finish.  But it takes another 15-20 minutes to matte and frame them.

 

In about 30 minutes you just finished everything you had to do for today.  Well, almost.  You need to drop them off at the real estate office in the morning tomorrow.

 

And then you start counting the money.  At $10 profit each, you just made $90 in a half hour. Not bad, huh? 

You start to think about all those karate schools, ballet schools, golf shops, hospital gift shops and other real estate offices that might want to take orders for you.  Even if you could just triple what you're doing now, that would be almost $300 a day.

 

So now your mind is now getting excited by all the possibilities that lie before you.  You see yourself doing the things that you've wanted for so long.  You feel that sense of security knowing that your children will be able to have the things they need. 

 

And just when you start to see yourself boarding the plane to the Cayman Islands, you feel something tugging on your leg...

 

It seems someone woke up from their nap and is a little hungry.

 

Not to worry....You have all the time in the world.

 

Could this really happen to you?  Don't be surprised if it does...

 

 

 

 




People will smile and tell you how wonderful you are!

It's true.  After all, you just solved a huge problem for them.  They were looking for a unique gift for under $20 and you handed them the answer on a silver platter.  They'll smile and keep looking at that personalized print over and over.  And they'll be thinking of how much that person is going to love it.  When you first hand it to them and you see that smile light up their face, you'll feel like a million bucks.

So how can you get your hands on this system? And what exactly will you be getting?  Let me break it down into three parts.

 

Part One: Print On Demand System

This remarkable software allows you to take a cartoon and personalize it in under a minute.  It is specifically designed so you can create amazing gifts that people will love....and keep buying from you for years to come.  It has every feature you could ever want and it's totally customizable.  But the best feature is that it is incredibly simple to use.  Even if you have basic computer skills, you'll be creating fantastic gifts in minutes.

 

Part Two: Supplies

Once you've printed out the cartoon, you're about 30 seconds away from creating a finished product.   If you want to make a keychain, just trim away the excess paper and snap it into the clear Lucite keychain holder.  For a framed picture, add a matte with some double stick tape and then insert it into the frame.  It's so simple!  Here's what you'll receive in our Starter Package:
 

 

  • 75 Mattes (Assorted Colors)
  • 75 Cardboard Backing Sheets
  • 6 Mousepads
  • 6 Transfer Sheets
  • 12 Keychains
  • 12 Magnets
  • 100 Sheets of Ink Jet Paper
  • 100 Brochure Sell Sheets
  • Double Stick Tape
  • Sample Frame

 

This is enough supplies to generate over $1000 in sales!



Part Three: Training

All the amazing software and supplies in the world will not help you if you don't have the guidance and support of people who know what they're talking about.  With Friendly Folks Starter Package you'll receive an amazing training video where Scott actually shows you how to set up a winning display.  He'll also impart knowledge that he's learned from his many years in business.

 

In addition, you'll also have access to our Dealer Resource Center which is packed full of advice from our most successful dealers.

 

But most of all, you'll have unlimited access to myself and Scott.  Our years in the business means that we know what works and what doesn't.  And since we want you to succeed, we'll do everything we can to make that happen.



How Come You Can't Order Your Package Right Now?
 

 Perhaps you're wondering why we don't have a "Buy It Now" button or a way to order a package online.  The reason is that unlike other companies, Friendly Folks makes money through an ongoing relationship with you, which we believe is the most ethical and honest way to conduct business. And because of that, we don't want to just sign up a zillion dealers.  


 If you're interested in getting started, you'll have to call or e-mail us first.

Tell us where you're located and what kinds of ideas you have for your business.  If you don't have any ideas (or too many!) that's ok.  Our dealers are like family to us and we'd just like to spend some time getting to know you.

After reading through all of this, you're probably thinking that to get started is going to cost a couple of thousand dollars.  I hear this all the time.  Actually, our Starter Package is only $497 and includes everything you'll need to get your Friendly Folks business up and running. Of course, if you insist on paying more we'll accept it. But it's not necessary!

Is Your Area Still Available?

Although we can't offer exact territories (it's against the law), we are allowed to restrict the amount of dealers we have in any given area.  Why do we do this?  Because it's good for your business.  And if it's good for you, its good for us too.

  Having too many dealers hurts business for everyone because an area becomes saturated.  We want Friendly Folks to be something exciting and unique where you live.   Being one of the only active dealers in an area insures this.

If currently there is no availability in your area, we will put you on a waiting list.  But don't despair! Just hang in there and hopefully something will open up.

Just in case you haven't seen a Friendly Folks print up close, we're offering a FREE picture with your name on it.  When you see it, I'm sure you'll agree that it's the most exciting home business concept you've seen in years.  Make sure you show it to other people.  And when you do, watch their face.  Just be warned.  They're going to want one also!

 

I'm not sure how long we're going to be sending out free stuff so grab this opportunity now.
