Howdy all,
I am Dave I am new to this forum and pc. I have looked over a lot of the products and I can say is wow. I will be signing after the holidays with a local rep that the HO sent me to. This is much different than the other business I was in(quixtar/amway). you will see me contribute every once in awhile to a thread. the best thing I can say is if you can believe you can then go for it. talk to you all later
 
Dave,Glad to hear you decided to start! PC is an awesome company with tons of incentives for the hosts, guests AND consultants! I suggest you try to find a friend or two who would like to start this business alongside you. It is so much fun learning the business with friends AND you promote when you have 2 sign up!
 
Congrats on your decision to sign! I know that the men in this group have GREAT success!! You have that going for you already!

Get ready for a great time, this business is too cool!
 
Welcome Dave! Best of luck and you will do great!!!:)
 
Welcome to our virtual cluster. May you have success in your new venture.
 
Welcome Dave! Just curious - why did you leave Quixtar/Amway? I have a friend who recently joined them and I know she would LOVE doing PC and would love to see her over here instead...

That business wasn't for me. The support materials, aka tools, were expensive; 4-8 tapes/cds a month, plus a book of the month, plus monthly rallys, and then 3 major conventions a year. big $$$. Just to compare their waterless cookware for a 16 piece set was over $1000:eek: . That is a really hard sell. I did learn a lot about myself during my time with them. I still have several great books that I might not have read before. The one I am rereading now is "The Magic of Thinking Big". I wish your freind well. Maybe she can make it work.
 
welcome Dave my DH did quixtar for about 6 months never earned anything and his support team stopped calling 2 months after he signed. We do know someone who is doing awsome in it though
 
Welcome:) This is a great site, and an awesome company!
BTW, I'm getting ready to read the same book!
 
Welcome to PC Dave!! There are some amazing guys and gals in this virtual group! I have many of them to thank for making my business grow and become successful since I started back in April!

Cheers
 
Hi Dave! Welcome from someone who lives in "Amway/Quixtar" Land! This is nothing like that! My DH was so leary of PC, because he was afraid it would be like Quixtar. This business is not based on the same principals....and you can make money w/o having a ton of people under you. From my experience w/ A/Q - the ONLY way you make money is by convincing others to spend their hard-earned money to convince others to spend, to convince others to spend.....can you say Pyramid Scheme? I have known so many who have lost their life-savings, or declared bankruptcy, etc....before discovering it was not all it was proposed to be at the beginning. ENJOY selling PC - it's a product and a company you can be proud of!
 
Hey Dave! Welcome aboard. I wish you all the best.
 
Isn't it funny how so many of us have the same experiences? When I met my PC recruiter, we started chatting because I paid for my order at my SIL's show with my Amway visa card. My recruiter and her DH were also Amway reps. She has since quit that and PC, and is doing something else (with nutrition shakes or something - she's moved twice). My DH and I only keep our IBO number to order products for personal use.

And I do love PC so much more! There's less emphasis on covetousness, and more on family and reachable goals. :)

Welcome, Dave! You're going to love it!
 
Welcome Dave. You'll love it. I find myself just having a blast...still can't believe I am looking up recipes. (Laughing my way to the recipes box) Are you really the Jilleysue that hates cooking..hahahaha. Glad to have you here.
