I have realized in the past month that I am probably not going to be able to do my job after my husband and I have children. It's VERY demanding. I want to do Pampered Chef full time...but I need some assurance I can make what I make now if not more...so I won't need the second job. Right now at my full time job I make between 40-45K...Please give me some assurance that this is possible!! Also, if you do this full time do you use the Pampered Chef benefits? My husband is thinking of going and working for himself, as an electrician..and we wouldn't have benefits anymore....what do u think? Any advice?
 
Anything is possible with PC - just look at the achievers in our CN! But remember that those are the few. It can be done but you really have to work at it to build your organization quickly. Build your team deep and wide and over book your calendar. Call, call, call, network, network, network!
 
I made this same change last year. I was making the same salary that you are talking about. I do have 2 kids, but I just wrote down what I would not be spending going to and from work every day...It has worked out fine for me...but that was not at making 45k...I had daycare and other expenses that youy do not currently have. I was looking at PC's benefits, and found cheaper, better benefits on my own, so I went with that. PM me if you decide you want more info!!
