Full-Time, Part-Time, & Hobbyist

[finley1991]

I'm curious as to what you all think of this and am posting it in a few places to gather a number of responses...

What do you consider, in Pampered Chef, to be full-time, part-time and hobbyist business.

I'm looking for hours, # of shows or income answers.

Thanks for your help.

PS: Reason I am asking is that I have a consultant who I am forever struggling with (and so many of you here have helped me with issues with her in the past! Thank you!) who tells everyone she does this full-time... she doesn't work another job in addition to PC, collects unemployment, and does less than $200 each month and maybe 1 show a month. So I'm curious as to what your answers are to this. Thanks again for all of your help!

I think (hope) she means that the only job she's got is PC. I wouldn't consider her full-time. I was thinking about this for myself yesterday. I had considered myself a full-time consultant, but I don't think I qualify considering my commission.

When I think of a full-time consultant I think of Duska Mills or Shan Eisler, but I think there are people out there putting in that time, but don't have the status. Is Career Consultant an option? I think those 2 would be more Career Consultant status.

I average 6-8 parties a month. I make ccc 3-4 days a week (I know not everyday). I've started earning trips and all other incentives. So I kinda think that's full-time, but I know it is quite a bit less than what most of you do.

Hobbyist= 1 or 2 shows a month
Part-time= 1 or 2 shows a week
Full-time= 2-3 shows a week consistently

My thoughts:

Hobbyist= 1 show every month (or every other month)
Part-time= 1 show a week
Full-time= 2 shows a week consistently with ccc done on a regular basis and an active recruiter
