Purple Tree, Inc. Helps Women Reconnect With Each Other and Their Creativity

International Company Helps Women Remember when it was Okay to Color the Trees Purple 


TAMPA, Fla., Nov. 7  /PRNewswire/ -- Launched in the U.S. in November 2004, Purple Tree, Inc. (http://www.purpletree.com/) has grown to over 300 Coordinators in 42 U.S. states (including Alaska, Hawaii and Puerto Rico) in the first year and, as of October 2005, is now in Canada. The rapid expansion of this direct sales organization is based on women's need to reconnect with each other and with their own creativity.

Identified in Purple Tree's initial research phase, women long for a sense of community and harbor a creative spirit that often is neglected to meet everyday demands. Purple Tree designed a successful structure for independent Purple Tree Coordinators to bring groups of women together in a stress-free environment where they get back in touch with their creativity. Purple Tree home parties allow guests to complete a free Make 'N Take (a simple, creative project), and choose from a broad range of easy-to-complete projects such as jewelry, home decor, paper crafts and knitting.

"We're so excited about the reaction that women have had to Purple Tree, that we accelerated our expansion plans," said Jim Turner, Company Experience Advocate for Purple Tree. "Throughout the U.S. and Canada, the number of Coordinators has grown significantly and even includes several well-known authors, TV personalities and creative experts. We credit our growth to helping women in their pursuit of community and their own creativity -- both areas where Purple Tree is meeting a core need of women."
