business while impacting our nation's literacy. We offer full or
part-time income while working around your family's schedule.
Now is the Time!
Usborne Books & More is a very reputable and financially sound company that
has been helping build successful home businesses for over 20 years.
Whether you are looking for a home business with some serious revenue
generating capability or a part-time job to make a little extra cash,
Usborne Books can help you meet your financial goals.
The product is terrific.
Usborne books are known for their captivating and entertaining
multi-sensory approach to learning. They are loved by parents,
educators, and children of all ages. The books practically sell
themselves! There are numerous marketing options available with
Usborne Books & More and a wide market opportunity.
An Usborne Books & More business is flexible, family-friendly, and financially rewarding.
As an independent consultant, you may market your business in many ways:
- Home Shows
- At a home show, a
hostess invites friends and family into her home to browse through a
selection of Usborne books. An Usborne consultant is present to make
the shopping experience a complete success. The
hostess earns free books, the guests are exposed to great educational
products for their children, and the consultant earns commission on all
purchases made. Often, home show guests become hostesses, and even
consultants themselves!
- Web Sales
- Usborne consultants are provided with an e-commerce website when
joining. This website is a 24-hour online bookstore through which your
friends and family can purchase our full line of products. In
addition, consultants can also create online e-shows where hostesses
earn free books in exchange for sharing Usborne books with their
friends and family.
- Book Fairs
- Consultants may host book fairs and reading incentive fundraisers for
churches, hospitals, schools, libraries, homeschool groups and other
organizations. The consultant receives commission on sales from the
book fair, and the organization receives cash, free books or a
combination of the two.
- Booths
- Consultants may set up booths at conferences, meetings, fairs and
festivals. These fun events are an excellent opportunity to expose
people of all ages to Usborne books. Once the customers see the
high-quality books we offer, they are often compelled to also host a
home show, e-show, or book fair of their own.
- School and Library Sales
- Usborne Educational Consultants can build relationships with and sell
to schools and libraries. School and library personnel know good books
when they see them, and Usborne books are among their favorites!

Commonly Asked Questions
What kind of money can I make?
This is truly up to you.
You can do this as a full time job dating 4 to 5 Home Shows a week,
meeting many potential recruits and building a network organization
quickly or you can work part time working around your family’s schedule.
What kind of up front investment do I need to make?
Very little!
We offer two kits: one is a kit special that changes every month and
the other is our base kit with a larger sampling of titles. The kits
contain everything you need to begin your business. You can order more
supplies as you need them from the supply order form.
What if I don’t feel like a salesperson?
Most of the best sellers say they are not "salespeople." Successful selling involves finding a product you love and the desire to share it with others.

qualities and educational value, sit back and watch our books capture
the imagination and hearts of each guest.
