Description of Company:

Jewel Party is a growing franchise network of people that run Children’s Jewellery Parties in their local area. We run 4 different fun parties; Beautiful Beads, Fun Fimo, Ribbon & Keyrings and Sweetie jewellery parties. We provide all of our new franchisees with lots of training and support as well as materials for the parties, so you can be up and running in no time.

Work Description:

Delivering jewellery parties is a fun and rewarding job. You can work from home at hours that suit you, your main roles as a jewel party franchise is to;

- Advertise your parties in your local community through flyers, posters and word of mouth.

- Take bookings for parties by liaising with parents

- Order materials for the parties

- Manage your finances

- Deliver fun and enjoyable jewellery parties! (We will give you all the training on how to do this)

Average hours per week:

This is entirely up to you as you can work as little or as much as you like to fit around other commitments. Most of the work is on weekends or afternoons as this is when children’s parties usually are. As a guide each party lasts 1.5 hours so if you were delivering 2 parties a week this would be around 3 hours plus your planning time and if you were delivering 10 parties a week this would be around 15-20 hours.

Investment required:

£2500 for all the initial start up costs and licence for the first year.

Ongoing Financial Commitment:

After this there is a £700 fee each year for a new licence to continue.

Earning Potential:

In terms of profit you will make around £100 per party, so if you are delivering 2 parties per week = Around £800 per month

If you are delivering 5 Parties per week = Around £2500 per month

If you are delivering 10 Parties per week  = Around £4000 per month

Angela Osborn lives and works in South London and runs her own Jewel Party Franchise…

I run a Jewel Party franchise in south London and absolutely love my job! I am a single mother of three and so found it hard to find something that would be flexible enough for me to fit around my busy schedule and also give me enough income to make it worth it.

Jewel party is great because you have complete control over when you work and for how long. You can choose which parties to take on and book them in when you are available. You are also working with other mums who understand the demands of having children.

I usually work between 10am-2.00pm two days a week when the children are at school, this time covers all of the admin, advertising and ordering of jewellery materials, finances etc…

I then also run around 4 Jewellery Parties a week, usually on the weekends, you can fit up to 3 jewellery parties in a day as they are only 1.5 hours long and as they are all fairly close to me this is fine. I do however have a car, which not everyone does so depending on your public transport links you may not be able to do as many parties per day. My total working hours per week are around 14 hours and I earn around £400 per week (that is almost £30 per hour!).

Before I started my jewel party franchise I had absolutely no experience with making jewellery, I had worked with children before but not in this way. Jewel party provide really good training, which is also ongoing. They take you through all of the skills and techniques needed to run each of the parties and also provide you will all the basic tools and materials you need. They also gave me a guide to running the franchise, which has been like my Bible, I refer to it all the time.

In the first year of your franchise you have access to a mentor, which is basically a designated person you can contact if you have any problems or questions so there is plenty of support available.

In terms of ongoing costs, I have to buy in all the materials for the parties but this is included in the cost of the party so don’t eat into my profits. You can also spend money on advertising e.g. in local magazines etc… You are given leaflets and promotional materials but you may need to pay to put them up in some places depending on where you are based.

You do need some storage space for all the kit. I have a cupboard in the living room, which has been perfect.

There are no real downsides to the job, you just need to be willing to put sometime in to advertising and the party bookings will start coming in. If you enjoying working with children and like to be creative I would really recommend the Jewel Party Franchise as they are fun, rewarding and the best job I have ever had!
