What is thinking: Definition and 77 Discussions

Hi... I am very interested in selling at home parties. I have worked in Sales before but now that I am a stay at home mom I think this may work better for me. I have not been able to find the info I am looking for on the web-site and I DON'T want someone calling to pressure me into it. I just...

Hi! I'm new here and thinking of starting PC. I've been a host several times and love the products. I am looking at doing it on a Part-Time basis. I mainly just want to earn some extra money. My question is two parts. Do you have to buy the starter kit?? I already have about 80% of what is...

On Dec. 1st we moved into a new home which has a basement suite that we are not going to rent out since we are using the whole house for our family. I started thinking about what a shame it is for the big kitchen to go to waste in the former suite. That's when I started thinking about joining...

Hello Everyone, I would like for anyone or everyone to share with me about becoming a Consultant. I just had a catalog show.....and OH MY.....it was $2,300.00. :) I have been in Direct Sales for 6 years now and I am thinking it is time for a change! Long story short....the Consultant...

Since I found this site I thought my business was doing better. My sales was increasing though the bookings wasnt. I dont know what it is about me but I just cannot seem to get anything rolling around here. I will get a month with 3-4 shows and before the first week is out all of them have...

?1. Are there any months of the year that kitchen shows are harded to book? I hear the holiday months ( Nov & Dec) are difficult. Would you say this is true? ?2. When it comes to the shows you need to qualify, does catalog shows count in with the kitchen shows? ?3. How often are there...

I have been a loyal customer of PC for 10 years. I have always had so much fun doing the kitchen shows. I have a favorite PC Consultant who just moved away. I am trying to get in touch with her but haven't been able to at the moment. I use to work for her as her organizer while she did...

Hello everyone! I've been reading this website the last couple of days and it is a great source of information. I love PC products and have taken up orders the last two years for a consultant I used to work with. I have done pretty well with it at my office alone. I considered selling last year...

I'm thinking about getting my own website. How many of you have a website? Do you find it helpful to your business? Just courious if the investment is worth it. and any advice you may have about getting one. I hear they are very easy to maintain just not sure if the money is worth it. (We pinch...

I am thinking of putting something together for my son's preschool. I was thinking of just having a catalog type fundraiser. My concern is that the parents won't be able to figure the sales tax and shipping. Has anyone else ran across this problem before, if so how do you handle it. Thanks

Hello Guys I have had a good/bad day. I looked at my first commission check online today. When I saw insurance taken out I just emailed my director and asked what it was. She told me that if something happens to someones house while your there it covers things like that. I have a very full...

I have a question. I'm thinking of signing up, but was wondering if there was a way that I could find out how many consultants there are in my area? The girl who is wanting to recruit me is a friend of mine who's husband is military, and she is stationed overseas. How would it work with meetings...

Hi Ladies, If I hold a party on July 31 and do not want the party to count until August, can I just input the party as an August 1? Or is that against the rules? Sorry if this is a question answered in the contract or something. I am still thinking about doing PC. Thanks, Sarah :)

I am thinking of joining P.C., but absolutely have no time to do home parties. Is it possible (or has anyone done this), that I can drop off books at offices or businesses and then tell them I'll call back in a week to see if anyone wants anything? Has anyone tried this and does people order...

I have never been a consultant before and am concerned about getting bookings -- There seem to be a lot of consultants out there and I do want to have the opportunity to grow -- I don't have a lot of friends who share my interest in cooking. Is the market saturated?

But my only concern is things like taxes and filing at the end of the year. Should I hold off money? Do I need to get a business license? Will pampered chef send me an earnings statement? Sorry for all the questions. I am just concerned about that. I am just not familiar with that...

...but I don't know much about it yet. Could someone tell me the pros and cons of going into this business? I'd really appreciate some solid information. Thanks! :)
