What is new consultant: Definition and 200 Discussions

Hey there! I'm a brand new consultant as of a week ago. ;) I'll admit, I mainly joined because the kit is such a great deal :love: but I am giving this a real shot! I have 2 facebook shows going on right now and about $250 in sales so far, plus I have my own local show in my home on...

I meet with a couple team members once per week for extra training -- plus they say it keeps them motivated. We have done the Step Up program, listen to MP3s, re-taken the Online Training, read a book. Yesteday, they were asking if there was any training to do after the new consultant...

Is there something you give New Consultants who join your team that gets them going - that allows them to work on it independently a bit, more than you holding their hand? I know the PC Kit has a great workbook, and I'll encourage that for sure, but wondering if you give something a bit more...

I have a lady who wants to sign-up as a consultant. I'm nervous about it because of the beta system, etc. I was told by my hospitality NED that: they DO sign up in the new Web, but once they receive their cons. number, they can go to Start Your Own Business and plan kitchen shows at...

Hi all I am in need of the new picture of the new kit can't seem to find it anywhere thanks in advance. I am going to use it at an event this week.

I am a new consultant, I just got my kit yesterday! YAY!! I am so excited. I was curious if anyone had a rolling tote to take to shows for sale?? I already had a ton of PC stuff before I started selling and I want to take some extras with me to shows and the bag in the kit just isn't big...

Just wanted to introduce myself, My name is Carmen. I joined PC the end of june!! I am very excited about this new journey in my life. I'm sure I will be asking lots of questions here? Any Arizonans, and I'm very intrested to speak to any bilingual consultants! Just wondering how you have...

I've found myself in a strange predicament...I have just recruited my first team member (and therefore I am training my first team member). Which is awesome! However, the problem is this...I have to train her on a system I can't access. How can I teach her how to use the "new" Pampered Chef...

I have a great new consultant... nearing her 90 days and going for $5000! She is very motivated, registered for Fall Launch in Anaheim and I am looking for a super director for her to attend meetings and network with. Any suggestions would be so very much appreciated!

I haven't transferred over to the new web for submitting orders. Does anyone who has new consultants submitting shows on it have any tips to pass along. I thought Doreen Grass was going to come out with a some tips for submitting orders but haven't seen it yet or I haven't found it! Thanks...

I just started a couple months ago and have signed up to be part of one of the local Farmer's Markets this weekend. I'm a little flustered and frustrated trying to decide what to do. It seems everyone has several products on hand to sell. I, however, being new just have my start up kit and a...

Hi Everybody I am considering becoming a Pampered Chef consultant again. I was a consultant for a few months about 6 years ago. I had a horrible time with it back then, I didn't put in enough effort and my show sales were tiny. I was lucky to hit 150 at a show. I really want this to work...

Hi! I'm doing my first show next week after being away 9 yrs. As I looked thru the catalogue with so many products, i've been overwhelmed. I was in a Hallmark store yesterday and I saw some small heart stickers. A lite bulb went off in my mind and I thought I would put a heart sticker beside my...

I am somewhat new to Pampered Chef. My 1 year is coming up and I am still lost! I really need help. I guess the only way I can make sense is to make a list. I need help with these: * What to say and do and cooking shows ( I know weird question, but I had one and I wasn't sure if I was...

First, I want to say how all of the ideas you all have shared is really helping me with the P. Chef recipes. I have my open House at my home in a week and my mind is going crazy trying what to make for it. The Savory Monkey bread that is a spinoff of the Garlic Parm Biscuits is something that I...

Hi Everyone! I'm Priscilla and I've been a PC consultant for almost 8 months. My business has started off slow....very slow. Due to my own fault because I wasn't sure how to "sell". Now my business is slowly going. I hope to make Team Leader in time of the Leadership Training in Sept. 2012. :)

Hi, I took the plunge. I have two shows scheduled this month. My New Consultant kit should be here by Wednesday. I am nervous. I ind of froze once I signed-up. I need to write a letter to my friends and family. I need to learn how to be a great Consultant ... I need to sew my...

Hi! I have *no* idea if I'm doing this part right (I hang out on boards, but every place is a little different). This seemed like the right place to pick some brains. I have a mental block about talking about PC (I'm a new consultant working on qualifying - about halfway there). I know part...

once an agreement is submitted, when does a new consultant's first 30 days begin? is it once the agreement is received or is it when the company ships the kit? I have someone interested in signing, but wants her 30 day period to begin on March 1st.

Just a head's up! Just got off the phone with PC because my newest consultant who signed Monday got her kit yesterday with no P3 in it. Apparently new consultants are simply supposed to download the program from Consultant's Corner instead of installing a disk program.

Ok so I thought that with a few shows coming up it might be a good idea to get my website up and running so that guests could place orders if they couldn't attend. I have no qualified yet....can guests still do that? And how? B/c there is no option to shop products (since I haven't qualified)...

Hi everyone! My name is Kristina and I just signed up this afternoon! Anxiously awaiting my consultant ID# and password so I can start looking through the consultants website!!!! 4 shows + 1 Bridal Luncheon +2 catalog parties in the works for February! :) SO excited!

Cross Posted from DCS... I remember years ago someone had shared with me a series of emails they send to new consultants in their first month or so.... My computer died and I lost a lot of stuff I wasn't actually using at the time.... Does anyone have something they use or have used?

Hi Everyone! I am a new consultant in Idaho. I am 34 years old, two kids. Full time college student. I have been part of the unemployment statistic for the last year and decided since no one would hire me, I would hire myself. I am terrified and I have a million questions. I am totally...

Hi Everyone, Just wanted to introduce myself. Just ordered my new consultant kit today and I'm so excited to get it! Love this website and am hoping to find lots of unique ways to make the most of my Pampered Chef endeavor as well as make some friends :)!!

Hey everyone! I'm new :) Just got my consultant kit and am so excited. However, I'm already stuck. I'm a stay at home momma to 2 little ones (1 and 3), with a very small circle of friends and a very limited budget for events such as booths, etc. Any friendly suggestions for a rookie? I have...

I really want to start featuring sauces and more at my shows. What flavors should I order?? Everything looks so tasty and delicious! How do I pick just a few!?!?! Thanks for the help! Jackie

Hey girls (and guys)! It's been a long time since my last post. Anyway, I want to introduce you to a new member of our PC family (I still consider myself part of the family, even though I've been retired for a little more than a year). This new consultant is my cousin, Abbey. Her screen is...

I had my first holiday boutique booth today. It seemed to go very well as far as leads which is what I was hoping for. It was also well worth the experience! People questions etc. I feel like I could have been more of a hard-sell or a closer... But it was in a retirement home so I felt like I...

Hi, my name is Marie. I just signed up as a consultant last week. I am very excited for my first show. I am in St. Petersburg Florida. I would also love to meet and connect with some local consultants. My director is in NY. I want to thank everyone here for all the wonderful advice and...
