Empower Artisans with NOVICA Live: Unique Home Based Sales Opportunity

Came across this today:

HOME BASED SALES | Introducing NOVICA Live

A very interesting concept: helping artisans support themselves through a direct sales company.

NOVICA began as a dream - a dream by its founders to cut out all middlemen and unite artisans around the world directly with customers eager to purchase their handcrafted treasures. This unique bridge, made possible by the internet, has allowed customers to see the faces of their artisans, read their stories and watch videos of them crafting their treasures.

Now part of the National Geographic family, NOVICA continues to seek out talented artisans, giving them a fair trade platform to sell their products, and thus ensuring the preservation of ancient artistic traditions.

For every NOVICA Live party held, the host can designate an artisan to receive a microcredit loan, paid for by NOVICA Live.

Microcredit is an excellent way to empower creative entrepreneurs with the means to grow their business into a sustainable income. Novica's Artisan Loan program charges artisans 0% interest on their loans, providing them with much needed credit at no cost.

Thanks for sharing this. My SIL's sister handcrafts wooden jewelry, ornaments and scrapbooks. They are gorgeous! I'm sending it to her. She might be interested in hooking up with them as an artisan.
