I was a pampered chef consultant briefly nearly 2 years ago. I would like to start doing it again, but have been told I would have to re-buy the starter kit again. I recently hosted a party and earned a couple of things to suppliment my kit and really cannot afford to rebuy the kit, which i already have. Is there really no other way to re-enter pampered chef world???

pls advise, thanks so much

That's correct!
 
I recently restarted too. I did have to re-buy the kit - Made that & an extra $70 back at my first show!!! Good Luck!!
 
Restarting with Pampered ChefMerriemoe,
That is very exciting that you are wanting to start back as a Pampered Chef consultant. This is a GREAT time to get started again!!

Since it has been 2 years since you have been a consultant, you do need to sign up to get started again.

The good news is that right now Pampered Chef is offering an AWESOME opportunity for those people getting started. You can earn the 4 PIECE PROFESSIONAL COOKWARE and NYLON TOOL SET for FREE!!! This offer is good until February 28.

I know that you already have the items in the kit, but having a second set with the kit would allow you to keep a set ready for shows and have a set at home for home use.

If you would like to get started without having to pay $90 for $350 worth of product, you could have a catalog show and use your points to buy down the kit. You could apply $20 or $40 off the kit price.

If you got started right now, you would get the kit products, the 4 piece Professional Cookware, plus your Super Starter bonus pieces, and a paycheck! Here is an example of what you would get:

$350.00 Value of the Super Starter Kit
$126.25 Value of Month One Bonus products
$155.00 Value of 4-Piece Professional Cookware Set and Nylon Tool Set
$250.00 Commission check (20% of $1250)
$881.25 TOTAL!!!

The online Kitchen Consultant Agreement is found on the public Web site at www.pamperedchef.com in the Come Join Us section. You just need your recruiters consultant number and name.

Do you have a consultant you are currently working with? If not, I'd be happy to have you as part of my team. Let me know if you have any questions. Below is my information. Feel free to contact me any time.

starting the business againI was going to tell you if you sell the items in the starter kit on ebay you will get way more then what you paid for the starter kit. Just an idea. People are crazy for pampered chef on ebay.

Thanks,

It is forbidden for active consultants to sell products on ebay.
 
As of March 1st, Pampered Chef has the right to audit your account to see if you are doing anything not allowed....like selling on Ebay.
