I just wanted to stop by and say HI to everyone!! I'm from Southern IL, no NOT Chicago, but more St. Louis (go CARDS!!). Well, where to start....I don't even have my kit yet. I won't be ordering it until the end of October because I wasn't able to do my kick off party until November 5th.

I am sooooo excited to get started. This totally came by surprise. My sister hosted a PC party about two weeks ago and while attending I started thinking to myself, hey I might just love doing this!! I'm a mom of three young boys and NEVER get any good girl time and what better way than to be PC consultant. I get girl time, talk time, fun showing how to utilize PC products (which I LOVE), and make a little extra cash on the side.

I must say, I wonder if I jumped into this without knowing much about having my own business. Should I be worried? I do work full time as well as DH. This is really more for me enjoying some social time and extra cash, not a full time income.

Hope to get to know many of you and can't wait to get started:)

welcome kelly!!!! and i wish you all the best!!!
 
Welcome. I honestly wouldn't worry too much about it because you control it. Work as little or as much as you want...Just make sure you are keeping records and receipts for taxes, but the business stuff isn't that hard really. it is nice to have that 1099 form to help versus how it was when I sold makeup and had to figure things out on my own for income!!You'll find so much here to help you!!
 
Welcome!

Don't worry. I had never even been to a party before I started my business, so you're already a step ahead of me on that one!
 
Welcome! There are all kinds of training available. You have nothing to worry about.
