Success starts with Books Are Fun - A Reader's Digest Company!
Join the world's leading display marketer for a rewarding and flexible career as a Book Fair Representative. You have the freedom to manage your own business while receiving training and support from Readers Digest – a company with a reputation for excellence.

Here's how it works:
Books Are Fun decides to partner with you and will support you while you run your own small business.
Your customers will shop at the fair just as if they were to shop at a bookstore.
Customers will receive a discount of 40-70% off the regular retail price of books.
To support our newly contracted reps we fly you to the Chicago, IL corporate office for thorough field training so that you are armed with the information needed to be successful.
During training, your telemarketer will be busy formulating new corporate contacts to grow your book of business.
Upon arriving home, Books Are Fun will deliver the first shipment of books and goods to your warehouse or garage storage location.
There is no inventory investment as books and products are sent on consignment! Books Are Fun would run a credit check because of the consigned inventory.
