USBORNE Books –Selling books in a mlm company
If you’re like me, you watch out for the newest or the most trending multi level marketing companies out there.
It’s likely that you found this USBORNE business opportunity review because you saw it listed on the top trending and top performing mlms list like I did.
Generally, when doing a mlm review for this blog, I spend a lot of time researching and trying to understand the compensation plan in order to report back to my readers.
The USBORNE opportunity and the Usborne Compensation Plan was very simple in comparison to all the others that I have reviewed. There might have been one or two that were also simple, however, the Usborne company comp plan seems to be easy to explain too.
Before we get too far into this Usborne review, I want you to see what my friend Brad has to say about mlm opportunities like this.
He was in Empower Network making over 20k a month but he decided to get out of it and I’ll let him explain why:
If you know this is what you want for yourself, then stop wasting your time reading all these mlm reviews because this is the way to do it.
All that being said, after you join Job Killing, you can literally end up joining any mlm company out there (yes even join Usborne books & more) and make a killing because you will have the skills in order to go beyond your family, friends and facebook and get organic traffic to your opportunity.
It’s still worth looking at the Usborne book opportunity but believe me, if you join before you get the right training in this type of world, you’ll be dragging your feet back to this Job Killing opportunity or always wondering how it could have helped you if you stopped and joined it today.
Make sure so see my Job Killing Testimonials here. We get them nearly every day now and it’s awesome!
As for that Usborne books mlm review you want? Here you go…
The Usborne Business Opportunity: What is UsBorne?
Usborne Books is a British publishing company (surprising huh?) that is actually very aged. It was founded in 1973 by a guy whose name is Peter Usborne.
This is only interesting to me because I thought the name of the company was actually (US Borne) as in a twist on the US and borne to make it Usborne. Clearly I was wrong.
Usborne is loved by home schooling parents because if offers non-fiction and fiction books for kids from the very tiny and young up to the teenagers and older.
In 1978 Usborne books came to the united states and about a decade later, the Usborne business opportunity was made. Usborne is now Usborne Books & More and are available at a global level in over 100 languages. That’s pretty impressive in this digital age.
To give you an idea of what the Usborne books are like, I found the rather elongated and laborious video that goes through one the larger of the Usborne Consultant starter kits.
So now that you know what you will be selling, I would say if you know a network of homeschooled kids (becoming more and more popular) you might have a good shot at making money from the Usborne business opportunity.
The Usborne Compensation Plan: How to make money with Usborne Books & More
The Uborne Book Comp plan is pretty easy to explain. It is easiest to just show the compensation plan with bullent points so here you go:

- Home shows = 25% commission
- If you get book fairs you can make 17-25%
- Renting out a booth and having book sales there will gross around 44% profit
- If you run one of the Usborne fundraisers, you make 10%
- By involving your Usborne company in a reading incentive program you make 30% or more in profits

Should I join Usborne books?
If you really love going to home parties and being a book salesmen..then sure….because that’s what it is.
In addition to selling books, in order to make money, you are going to have to find people to put in yoru downline who also want to become book sales persons.
The nice thing about the Usborne compensation plan is that you don’t’ have to meet any sales quotas each month.
The Usborne website explicitly states that you can not STAY at home and make money with Usborne. You have to go out and sell. …as with any mlm company. It’s just like Avon and Limu. …you have to get out there and share your product.
Rather than struggle to find people to join you as a sales person so that you can make money, how would you feel about offering a solid product that is needed that will never get old?

Is there a residual side to this comp plan?
Tasi,
Yes, the “residual” part of the compensation plan in Usborne and other mlms comes with your downline development. When you bring other people into the Usborn business opportunity, they sell books and you get to earn a percentage of their sales. Once your downline grows big enough, you can end up earning at several levels and generations depending what your rank is within the compensation plan.
