Can I be an independent consultant for PC and another DS company at the same time?
 
Yes, unless you are director.
 
Yes, as Linda said.

However, that being said, many do more than one but almost everyone I met has had a hard time doing more than one. There are time issues and depending on the products it is hard to separate your customer bases and you burn out all the people you know.
 
I've heard of more people doing one as a business, and one for personal use.
 
I have been thinking about this because I just ran into something I thought is a great product for my personal use and might be able to help others at the same time - It's not a party plan so it's different from Pampered Chef.
 
I have been thinking of doing another ds company with pampered chef
 
I was an Arbonne consultant for the discount but that just expired - Products were too expensive

I agree...one purchase was enough for me and that was discounted...I could NEVER afford full price!!!!

I am already consulting with another DS company, just wanted to make sure it was okay. I guess I should have checked first!! Just got too excited about PC and wanted to join right away.

I also work full time as a teacher and have two small children! I'm that kind of person that really needs her plate full. That or I'm just crazy!

The other company is totally different from PC so my customer base is different. I do mostly use the other DS for my personal use. I love their products (custom designed photo journals and books) and I do shows and recruiting occasionally. Not as much as PC, though.

I Love PC! I love PC! I love PC! I Love PC!
