Highlights-Jigsaw Toy Factory, Ltd.

MLM, multi-level marketing or NM, network marketing is a business structure that unites direct marketing with franchising where individuals as an independent contractor associate directly with a parent company and are reimbursed based on their sales of products or service, as well as the sales achieved by those they bring into the business. MLM businesses do operate legitimately in all 50 U.S. states and more than 100 other countries, and new businesses may use terms like affiliate marketing or home-based business franchising.

From the last few years, Highlights for Children has searched for ways to bring its products to children in various countries. At the same time, Jigsaw Toy Factory in Australia was interested in increasing its market size in the United States. The Direct Selling Association, DSA was helpful in putting both the companies in contact. When Highlights met Jeanie McKendrick and the Jigsaw Toy Factory, the two companies discovered that they grew on different sides of the world with the same goal. They also discovered how perfectly their products complemented one another. Their match seemed the best to start a new direct sales company in the United States. The companies and families started to visit each other and learn about each other's businesses and build a solid relationship.

In July 1999, after signing a partnership agreement in January 2000, they introduced Highlights-Jigsaw in the United States. Highlights-Jigsaw brings the best of both worlds, the best quality educational products in the world from the best and cherished companies in their countries. The company is still very new and very much a ground floor opportunity. At this time, there are about 350 Product Advisors nationwide. This is a great opportunity for moms, or anyone who loves kids, as they want to research the best toys for kids. They are natural at recommending and selling them to other moms. Their products are also good for home-schoolers, pre-schools, schools, teachers, and daycare providers.

Highlights build relationships with their clients and recommend new products as the skills and needs of their children grow. They offer unique and marketable products where one may also choose to recruit others for managing their business.
