Go for it!!! I have been a consultant for only 5 months and I love it. I had my first cooking show 12 years ago and have enjoyed the products ever since. Funny thing, I don't remember the consultant offering me the opportunity 12 years ago or I could have been doing it all that time. Remember to ask everybody to be a consultant, book a show, or place an order. Just have fun with it and your business will flourish.

My advice being a newbie myself (currently in Super Starter Month 2) would be to set up at least four FIRM shows for your FIRST SS month. I told my friends about it before I signed and asked them to help me out by having a show. I told them about all of the free products I would earn if I met my $1250 goal and four of them were willing to host for me in my first month. I had sales of $1326 for the month and earned my SS1 Bonus, plus a new consultant bonus.
Having the UPS guy drop off all my free stuff was a real motivator! I guess the gist of my advise is - SET YOUSELF UP TO WIN! Plan it out and you will be successful. Good Luck!
