:chef: For years, I've used and loved Pampered Chef products. I hosted a show at the end of September, and with 11 attendees, accumulated over $1,200 in orders, and had four people book PC parties off of my show. My success for this one party has me thinking that this is something that I could do on a part-time basis, as I already have a full-time profession.
So, tell me: What does it take to become a PC consultant? My PC rep encouraged me to do it, but at the time, I didn't think that I'd have the time to commit to it faithfully. What is the minimum amount of time I'd need to put in to it? Start up costs? Mandatory meetings, etc?
I feel that I could be pretty successful at it, as I know a LOT of people in my community (large family, lots of work associates, school chums, etc.), I LOVE to cook and entertain, and I have a pretty enthusiastic demeanor.
Seriously, if I go through the PC catalogue, I can see that I have in excess of 75 different products that I use in my own kitchen.
I'm intrigued, but don't want to do this if it takes too much time out of my already-hectic schedule. Obviously, the more time you put in to it, the better your results. Having said that, I have no intention of being some Super Human sales consultant, so I don't need to push myself too much.
