Trades of Hope Fair Trade & Ethical Fashion Direct Sales Company
A missional, purposeful direct sales company? What does that mean?! Can you really make an income while making a global impact? Can you rescue women out of human trafficking, help mamas feed their babies, and create a brighter future for families worldwide without having to leave your home? Yes, you can! It’s easy, and fun! Find your purpose through Trades of Hope as a Compassionate Entrepreneur!
Just like traditional direct sales companies, you are free to decide how you want to grow your business. You can even get your kids age 11-17 involved through our new SPARKS program!
You an grow your business through In-home “Empowerment Parties” or “Hope Gatherings”, Pop-ups at cafe’s, Vendor events, even Facebook parties! It all creates a ripple effect for lasting change!
Trades of Hope is unique because it provides opportunity for women (and men!) all over the globe (currently 16 countries) as well as for women here in the United States! It is a dignified, sustainable partnership, rather than a non-profit or charity! It’s a genius business model that is a long-term solution for change. We have nothing against Charity, but have learned that charity does not always give dignity to an artisan and sustainable business gives them long-term ability to find pride in providing for themselves and their children.
So how does this Trades of Hope direct sales thing work? Let’s take a look:

Commission & Website
Like most direct sales companies, there is an opportunity to earn commission on each sale you make from Trades of Hope. Paying our Compassionate Entrepreneurs is the best way to ensure that our business is sustainable and that our artisans keep getting sales. This ensures an income for both the CE and the artisan that relies on each other, which creates a cycle of sustainability and a dignified partnership. Our artisans are proud that they’re helping women in the United States take care of their families through the beautiful products they create!
A Trades of Hope Compassionate Entrepreneur receives 25% of each sale that is made, with the opportunity through their growth in the business to earn up to 35% on their personal sales. You also have access to purchase the products at the 25% discount price.
There is a 4-tiered bonus structure if you choose to grow a team of Trades of Hope Compassionate Entrepreneurs, and the compensation plan rewards both personal sales builders and team builders! You can choose to grow your business however you would like!
As a Trades of Hope Compassionate Entrepreneur, you will have your very own replicated website. The website is free for the first month, and very affordable after that. You can easily cancel it if you would like to, so there is no monthly fee! You can easily enter orders into your backoffice for FREE!
There is also a very low threshold for staying active as a Trades of Hope Compassionate Entrepreneur. To stay active, you must have a minimum of 1 purchase through your replicated website or a party link every 12 months. That’s it!
There are many “sprinkles” on top of the commission you can earn. (One of my favorite things about being a Trades of Hope Compassionate Entrepreneur!) Sponsoring incentives, hostess incentives, the Smart Start program, Map to Guatemala, and more! You can earn cash bonuses, donations in your name to families around the world, free product, trips to visit our artisans, and more!
