Definitely make sure you choose a supportive upline. For me, since in the beginning I didn't know if I wanted to be a demo just for the discount or for the business, it was important to find a demo who would and could support me regardless of which option I chose. My upline would be great if I decided just to buy from myself, but she has really been an invaluable source of information and encouragement as I have built my business.
Also, find out about your upline's upline and her upline and any larger demo group that you would belong to whose meetings/swaps you could attend. My up-up-upline has a demo only shoebox swap every time a new catalog or mini comes out, and that's a great way to get lots of samples without buying all the sets or spending a fortune on shipping. So if you're interested in SU as a business, find out if something like that would be available.
