The 10 Best Products to Sell From Home

Sharing is caring!

Selling products from home has become increasingly popular in recent years. Direct sales companies have made available endless opportunities to those that have the entrepreneurial itch but maybe not the skills or investment capital to start a business from scratch. If you are looking for products to sell from home, here are a few industries to consider.

Candles & Home Fragrance

There are two main categories to consider when looking to sell from home; products that are consumable and non-consumable goods. Consumable goods are those products that are used and need to be replaced on a regular basis. Candles and home fragrance items are a good example of consumables. They have a limited lifespan and this can mean repeat business.

PartyLite is one popular home business opportunity in this category. It’s actually the #1 party plan candle company in the world. The business opportunity was first introduced in 1973. Today, the candles are sold internationally in over 21 countries. Get started for just $99 or choose the earn-your-kit option to get started with no out-of-pocket cost.

Scentsy may be best known for their flameless fragrances. Their warming wax bars are sold in hundreds of scents. Earn a base commission of 20% plus bonuses as a Scentsy Consultant.

Pink Zebra offers wickless scents in the form of “sprinkles.” Today, their product line has extended to include scented soaks and even jewelry. Business kits currently start at $99 and include a quick start program.

Clothing

Selling apparel may seem like an unusual home business, but this sector is actually on the rise. We have busy lives and this may mean the hours available for clothing shopping are limited. You can also take things a step further and become more of a personal shopper and stylists.

Ruby Ribbon focuses on essentials and shapewear. Over 90% of customers who purchase their signature Camis purchase again. 90%! New Stylists enjoy a 40% discount on samples. A Fast Start Program is available allowing new consultants the opportunity to earn unlimited free product credit.

Educational Books & Toys

Several of the direct selling companies in the educational genre offer endless sales opportunities. Consultants may not only be able to sell to customers directly, they may also be able to partner with libraries, schools and more. Regardless of the company’s policies, these are definitely fun businesses.

Usborne Books & More is a division of Educational Development Corporation and has been in business for over 20 years. They have been in the direct selling business since 1989. Almost 2,000 titles are currently available running the gamut from encyclopedias to activity books to fiction series. Get started for as little as $75.

Simply Fun offers educational games and a base commission of 25%.

Food

Now we are talking consumable! You will find everything from jerky to chocolate available for selling from home. Many of these companies also offer auto ship programs that will allow you to earn a residual income as products are shipped to your customer’s door on a regular basis without the need for constant re-ordering.

Tastefully Simple is a well-known and tasty name in the direct selling world. Re-orders are at the heart of this business and their customer rewards program encourages that. Get started as a consultant for a $39.95 enrollment fee plus your choice of join kit.

Handbags and Accessories

We have a passion for purses right now, so it is only naturally that home business opps would be popping up in this niche as well.

Home Décor & Kitchen

These products fall more into the non-consumable goods arena, but that doesn’t mean you can’t get those repeat sales. Just like storefronts, home party companies usually introduce new items each season.

Tupperware is known around the globe. There are currently 2.9 million Tupperware Brands Sales Force Members worldwide enjoying a flexible schedule and up to 35% commission on personal sales.

Jewelry
