imagine...life on your
terms!
Mom-in-business Karen Keepers
started selling Tupperware because
she wanted to get the stuff for free. Not unlike most of
us, she was a little leery at first...afraid that she would
end up spending more than she made. A few incredible
years later, here she is, now a Director and making a great
income (with bonuses too) through a business that fits
her life.
Did you know...that Tupperware was
invented by Earl Tupper who developed the product in
1942? He started marketing the products through a Home
Party Plan on which today's Tupperware
Parties were modelled from. Interestingly
enough, these Tupperware Parties of the 1950s became an avenue
for moms to meet and make friends... sound
familiar? Today, a Tupperware party begins approximately
every two seconds some place in the world with yearly net
sales exceeding $1.2 billion. (source:
"Earl Silas Tupper: Inventor of Tupperware," by Mary
Bellis, and "The Great Idea
Finder: Tupperware")
