Well here are the reviews I found on the Internet on Origami Owl. Read them and decide if this is a company you want to get involved in. I once heard though that about 97% of its representatives make virtually no money in this business and that is not very encouraging. The company has been accused of being nothing more than a MLM or pyramid scheme. On top of it this company was purportedly started by a 14-year old kid three years ago and I don't know if a person of that age is capable of successfully running such an operation. Be careful though that any positive reviews may be paid blogs or are artificially placed by employees and promoters of the company:

I know nothing about Oragami Owl besides my wife bought one of their necklaces today and absolutely loved it.
I thought it was kinda cool they were customizable like pandora, and much cheaper :)
You should really do more research that relying on the answers you received here as they are very uneducated responses.
I mean no dis-respect to anyone but, trust me there are many 12-14 year olds that are much more capable of running a business of this size than the people you typically see running them into the ground.
Every company has pissed consumer reports, every company, why because people start businesses like this with un realistic expectations and no work ethic.
They think just joining a network marketing company will instantly turn into extra income, sorry not the way it works, you have to work to make these businesses work.
Many give up in first few months which is why there is such a high failure rate.
One last thing, mlm does not mean pyramid scheme.
There are many great multi level marketing companies who do great things in this country and have nothing to do with a scheme or scam
What about Advocare, Amway, Avon, Mary Kay - all mlm companies.
If you cannot make an educated response, then don't make one is all I am saying.
Peace
