Answer 4

I sold Pampered Chef years ago and they have very good products. In the past five years or so they've started focusing on serving dishes in addition to the utensils, baking stones, cookware, and knives, and other kitchen ware. The items in the starter kit change, but they are generally a good representation of the products. You'll have a stone and rack, batter bowl, knives, bamboo spoons, spatulas, a frying pan, food chopper, cutting board, measuring cups and spoons, and probably some serving dishes. The starter kit sets you up so you can demonstrate the most popular products. You also receive books full of information about all of the products and all of the necessary paperwork to get started.

This is an excellent opportunity if you have the right skills and personality. You must be outgoing, ambitious, and willing to seek out opportunities. You also need to be very organized - there's a lot of paperwork. When you start you won't be able to sit back and wait for people to come to you. You'll need to pursue customers and it can be difficult. You must sell a minimum dollar amount every couple of months in order to stay active, and if you aren't booking the parties, you'll spend a lot of money on products.

However, if you CAN do all of this, and are willing to work hard, you can make a very good living at it. My director told us her December check was nearly $10,000 - and that was 10 years ago. Of course, she had a huge number of people under her, and at that level she made a percentage off of the people down the line from her. Also, Christmas is a huge selling season, so that check wasn't typical. Even so, she makes a lot of money, earns trips, and gets to do something she enjoys.

Answer 5

I would be happy to answer your questions.  I'm a PC director and have been with PC since 1997.  Absolutely love it.  I would be more than happy to chat with you over the phone, no obligation, just a way that we could answer all your questions and that way you could make an educated decision about PC.  Sounds like you'd be great.  

BTW-  Now thru August 31 you can earn a credit for 50% off the start up cost of the business.  E-mail me in my profile, and we can set up a time to get on the phone, and go from there.  Looking forward to hearing from you!!!!!
