step...

So I've embarked on yet another adventure in my life - one that I hope will lead to success, friendship, new skills and increased confidence. Even before the wedding day came around, I was already contemplating how I would spend all my spare time that was at the time being consumed by all things wedding. Knowing my personality and that I'm a very go-go-go person, I was concerned that with the introduction of married life, I might find myself bored....
Thanks to a good friend and some great past experiences, I opted to embrace the opportunity when it presented itself to become a Pampered Chef consultant. I already have many of the products thanks to some successful hosting I'd done in the past, and it didn't take much to promote how great they are because they're performance speaks for themselves.
My first step as a consultant is to come up with my own story about why I joined Pampered Chef, what my life was like before joining, what I was most concerned about with joining and what I hoped joining would do for me and my life, so consider this practice...
Before joining Pampered Chef, I was obviously engaged and soon to be married. Three years out of college, I still maintain a hefty amount of student loans, I work full-time at a not-so-glamorous salary and now my new husband and I are looking to save for vacations, kids, and life in general. By joining Pampered Chef, I hoped to make that extra cash that could serve a variety of roles - pay off debt, go into savings and work as play money occasionally. I was mostly concerned that a.) I wouldn't find enough people to host shows for me and b.) that I wouldn't have the time to juggle a full-time job, the life of a newlywed, a social life AND Pampered Chef.
So far that is my story... While I am setting high expectations and hopes for myself with this, I don't think they will be hard to achieve as I've seen and heard so many other stories from other successful women in this business. I have been inspired and my hope is that my inspiration will push me onward and upward.
