What is Jockey Person to Person, Inc.?
Jockey Person to Person, Inc., is a direct selling company that's part of Jockey International, Inc ("Jockey"). Yes, that's right the world-famous underwear company! Jockey Person to Person is owned and founded by Debra S. Waller, Chairman and CEO of Jockey International, Inc., Jockey Person to Person sells its exclusive line of clothing and accessories through a field sales force of independent Comfort Specialist^® consultants, who market Jockey Person to Person^® products through home parties.

I'm not a natural salesperson. Can I succeed at this business?
We call our consultants "Comfort Specialists" for a reason – because the whole career and party experience is comfortable and fun. If you enjoy socializing and can facilitate "playing dress-up" with your girlfriends you have all the qualifications you need to succeed. With Jockey Person to Person, it's about connecting with people, building relationships and sharing beautifully-designed clothing and accessories backed by a world-class brand. So, there are no hard-sell tactics, and in fact, the lack of sales pressure as women try on our fashions makes for a relaxed home party experience for all. The simplicity and elegance of our products and the shopping experience are the main reasons so many customers and hostesses decide to become Comfort Specialist consultants.

What are the advantages of direct selling?
Freedom is the #1 reason people are attracted to direct selling: The freedom to be your own boss, to set your own schedule and work as many (or as few) hours as you choose, and to strike a balance between your work life and your personal life.

Another big advantage is that anyone can do it! You don't need a background in sales, a degree in marketing or a ton of start-up capital.

Why should I join Jockey Person to Person instead of another direct selling company?
Our brand, our values, our exclusive clothing collection – freshened each spring and fall – our career plan, and our business ethics.

We are part of Jockey International, Inc. – a company and a brand that people know and trust. The JOCKEY name will open a lot of doors for you, and you have the confidence knowing you have a best-in-class brand and infrastructure supporting you.

Our core values have remained steadfast since 1876 Jockey Person to Person is the supreme expression of Jockey's commitment to encourage each individual to be the best they can be. We value freedom, purity, simplicity and goodness – the core values that our parent company, Jockey International, Inc., has nurtured since 1876. Unlike some other direct selling companies, Jockey Person to Person values each individual, we respect the person's freedom, we listen to you, and we strive together to build a business relationship that reflects our core values.

What products does Jockey Person to Person sell?
Although we're part of Jockey International, we don't sell JOCKEY^® brand products. Instead, Jockey Person to Person offers a unique collection of clothing and accessories, identified with the JOCKEY PERSON TO PERSON^® brand, and available exclusively through Comfort Specialists. From smart casual to workout clothing – and a lot in between – we offer comfortable fashions for women.

I know Jockey sells in retail stores, online and in its own stores. Can I buy Jockey Person to Person^® products in a retail store?
Jockey Person to Person products are marketed exclusively by Comfort Specialist consultants, who sell our products through home parties, open houses, fairs and shows and fundraisers.

How can I buy Jockey Person to Person^® products?
Contact your Comfort Specialist consultant to place an order or host a party. As a party hostess you have the opportunity to receive free and discounted products as you share our fashion collection with friends and family. If you need a consultant, click on "contact us" and we'll have a local, independent Comfort Specialist assist you.

Will I have to learn a whole bunch of stuff before I feel comfortable as a Comfort Specialist consultant?
You can relax and just be yourself right from the start because every aspect of the business has been designed to be simple, easy and fun. Get your Business-Building Kit, try on some of the clothing, check out our catalog and website for a few ideas on mixing and matching – and trust your instincts. Women come to the party to have fun, try on new fashions and connect with friends. You'll find that you'll make friends and build relationships whether you've watched countless hours of QVC or not! And at most parties the guests just start trying on clothes and sharing ideas with each other; your role is to provide a little organization to a shopping experience that kind of just evolves naturally!

I don't want to impose on my friends. Is there a way around that?
The beauty of offering brand-name clothing and accessories from Jockey Person to Person is that you will find that many of your friends – and their friends, and so on – will welcome the opportunity to check out each season's collection. Not only is this a no-pressure business model, but people honestly enjoy wearing our clothing and accessories! Factor in the great service that you'll provide and you have something that offers true value to your customers.

How do I get started?
That's easy! Call your Comfort Specialist consultant or visit her website (Canada or visit our website) and sign up online. We'll send you your Business-Building Kit for just $199 plus shipping & handling. It includes products with a retail value of more than $600 plus business supplies and training materials. Your sponsor will help you get started and show you how to make the most of our training and support tools. When you're ready, you'll host your own "Announcement Party" so you can immediately start earning profit, experience things from a hostess's perspective, and announce your new business venture to your friends and family members.

How much income can I expect to earn?
The amount you earn depends on how much time and energy you decide to invest. Comfort Specialist consultants make 25% - 40% commission on their own sales as well as additional bonuses on the sales of other consultants they sponsor. Some of our Comfort Specialists choose to sell just enough to get their comfy fashions at a discount, while some of our Group Vice Presidents can make six-figure incomes.

In Canada, the primary source of income of a typical participant in the plan is from compensation on sales of products and commissions on downline sales and personal earnings will vary. A typical participant in the plan is defined as a Comfort Specialist^® consultant who has been soliciting sales of products for a period of at least 12 months. A typical participant is projected to earn between C$1001 and C$8000. These earnings have been derived based on amounts earned by participants in the plan from June 2009 - May 2010. (Statement of Typical Canadian Participant Earnings 2010).

Are there any sales quotas I must meet?
To maintain "active" status, you need to place at least $600 in orders in a rolling 3-month period. Think of it as just one or two parties every 3 months. You're free to hold as many or as few parties as you like. You can also act as your own hostess and reap the hostess benefits.

What if this just doesn't work out for me and I want to back out?
No problem! If you find this is not for you, simply send an email to our Customer Care department and they will deactivate your account. You can still enjoy our products as a hostess or customer.
