Have you ever wished you could create a healthier home without spending more money on products that don’t actually work? And have you also considered what you could do to add additional income? If either of these resonate with you, perhaps it is time to start a Norwex business
That was me 17 years ago.
At the time, I had stepped away from my full-time physical therapy career to stay home with my boys. We had young children, a tighter budget, and a growing desire to reduce the chemicals in our home.
But I kept running into the same frustrating problem:
- The “safer” cleaners were expensive
- Many didn’t clean very well
- I felt stuck choosing between performance and ingredients
Then I found Norwex.
Norwex checked every box for me.
It helped us create a cleaner, healthier home.
And unexpectedly… it also became a meaningful stream of income for our family. (I mean, I expected that I could make a few extra hundred per month. What I didn’t expect, was the actual income potential.)
Seventeen years later, I’m still incredibly grateful I said yes. This month marks my 17 years as a Norwex consultant and leader.
And since I personally joined in July, I may be a little biased—but I truly believe July is one of the best months of the year to get started.
7 Reasons July Is a Great Month to Start a Norwex Business
1. July Gives You Momentum Before Fall Selling Season
July is a sweet spot in the Norwex calendar.
Why?
Because many families are preparing for:
- Back-to-school routines
- Fall schedules
- Holiday planning
- Home resets after summer chaos
That means people are naturally thinking about:
- Cleaning
- Organization
- Simplifying routines
- Healthier habits
In other words, demand is about to rise.
Joining in July gives you time to:
- Learn the products
- Use them yourself
- Build confidence
- Be ready for the busy fall season
By the time August and September arrive, you’re no longer “brand new.”
2. The July Standard Starter Kit Is Incredible
One of the biggest reasons July stands out is the value inside the current starter kit.
This month’s standard starter kit includes some of Norwex’s most-loved products, including:
The Norwex Mop System
This is one of my favorite products in the entire catalog.
Why?
Because instead of coating your floors with chemical residue, you can clean effectively using the Norwex mop system and just water.
That matters if you have:
- Babies
- Toddlers
- Pets
- Bare feet on your floors (I’m definitely a barefoot girl)
The EnviroCloth + Window Cloth
These two products alone have changed millions of homes.
The EnviroCloth helps clean surfaces using only water.
The Window Cloth helps leave streak-free shine on:
- Mirrors
- Windows
- Stainless steel
- Smooth-top stoves
- Car windows
This simple two-cloth system can replace a surprising number of spray cleaners.
3. You Can Potentially Earn Your Starter Kit Free
This is one of the most compelling reasons to join.
With the standard starter kit, Norwex ships your kit for essentially the cost of shipping.
Then you have 45 days to earn it free by reaching the required retail sales goal.
For many new consultants, that happens simply through:
- A few in person or online demos
- Sharing with friends
- Text outreach
- Facebook parties
- Personal recommendations
This dramatically lowers the risk of starting a business.
4. July Still Offers a Low-Cost Sample Kit Option
If you’re feeling interested—but cautious—July is also exciting because it includes the Sample Starter Kit option.
This can be ideal if:
- You already use Norwex and just want consultant pricing
- You’re returning after a break
- You want minimal upfront investment
- You want to test the waters
For some people, this lower-cost option removes the biggest mental barrier:
“What if I’m not ready for a bigger commitment?”
5. Norwex Solves a Real Problem People Already Spend Money On
This is a huge reason I loved this business from the start.
Norwex isn’t a luxury purchase people have to create new budget for.
People are already buying:
- Paper towels
- Cleaning sprays
- Laundry detergent
- Dish soap
- Floor cleaners
- Beauty products
They are already spending the money.
Norwex simply offers a healthier, reusable alternative.
That makes the business feel natural because you’re solving real everyday problems.
You’re not trying to convince someone they need something random.
You’re helping them replace products they already use.
That’s powerful.
6. You Can Enjoy the Personal Savings (Not Just Income)
Here’s something many people don’t realize:
Not everyone joins Norwex because they want a huge business.
Some join simply to:
- Get the consultant discount (35%)
- Save money on products they already love
- Detox their home faster
- Share casually with friends
And that’s okay.
You do not need to know your final business goals on day one.
Some people start for savings…
…and later realize they love helping others.
7. There Is Still Massive Opportunity to Start a Norwex Business
One statistic that continues to motivate me:
Norwex is still in only a small percentage of homes.
That means millions of families still do not know:
- Better options exist
- Cleaning can be simpler
- You don’t need harsh chemicals everywhere
The mission is still huge.
There are so many homes left to impact.
That excites me.
8. Let me throw in a bonus reason… in July, Norwex kicks off their next annual trip earning incentive!
When you start a Norwex business in July, you get all 12 months to earn the Norwex trip (they are INCREDIBLE trips- I have traveled the world thanks to Norwex!)
And… in July 2026, Norwex is offering DOUBLE TRIP POINTS to our next incentive trip, which then essentially gives you “13 months” worth of points collection!
I have earned the Norwex annual incentive trip EVERY year for 17 years by simply doing an average of two parties per week and following the party formula that I teach my team.
Could Norwex Be Right for You?
Norwex may be a great fit if you:
✅ Care about reducing toxic load
✅ Love helping people
✅ Want flexible income
✅ Want something meaningful to share
✅ Need a side income or business from home
You don’t need to know everything.
You just need to be willing to start.
Final Thoughts on How to Start a Norwex Business: Why July?
Why is July such a great month to start Norwex?
Because it gives you:
- Strong starter kit options
- Low-risk entry
- Momentum into fall
- Opportunity to earn products free
- A chance to build income while helping families
- Start of the Norwex annual trip incentive AND double trip points this month (July 2026)!
For me, saying yes to Norwex 17 years ago changed far more than my cleaning routine.
It helped transform our finances, our home, and our future.
And it may do something meaningful for yours too.
