My Pampered not Perfect Journey: How I joined the Direct Sales World through Pampered Chef
Since you’ve found my little corner of the inter-webs, it’s important that you know a little bit from the heart and about how I got here. Plus if you’ve ever even been the teeniest bit interested in what it’s like being in Direct Sales … and more specifically in Pampered Chef, keep on reading.
My hubs, who I’ll refer to as Dr. Fusion, and I decided before we even started a family that since he had a regular/sustainable income as a scientist (hence… Dr. Fusion), I would stay home. In 2010, when my daughter was born, I hung up my ‘heels’ ended my life in the corporate world. I truly thought that I was built for being the fun, Pinterest, doing crafts with kids, Stay-at-Home Mom – boy, was I wrong. Please do not mis-read me here – I’m SOOOO thankful for the opportunity to be with my kiddos but it just felt like I was losing myself. My identity was tied to being someone’s wife and someone’s mom. I missed having something that was MINE and MINE alone. I’m also a person who has to be intellectually challenged. Believe me, I struggled with feeling selfish for wanting to work when I really didn’t have to. I tried a couple of gigs – and they were just not flexible enough to keep up with all the things my family needed.
Enter a Virtual Pampered Chef Party in 2017! I had been a Pampered Chef fan for about 20 years at that point – hosted a few parties and a light bulb went off. As I watched the consultant run the party, I thought to myself that this was something that I could do in my own time at home and it would be FUN. I loved to cook. I loved to help people. I loved Pampered Chef. So… without even asking my husband (not necessarily advised … but I did it anyway), I signed up. Grabbed a business kit. I figured what do I have to lose if I signed up. The Pampered Chef police weren’t going to show up at my door if my business didn’t go anywhere. AND I got a ton of amazing products for SUPER CHEAP. Ha. Winning!! Turns out the most valuable ‘product’ in my Business kit – was the Business itself.

I listened to the person I signed under – did all of my training – followed the formula for success by listening to the others who had been in the biz for a while – and boom, my business was off to a good start. Fast forward from 2017 to now. Countless number of friends made (… like lifers – those friends that will always be your people) + So many Free Products earned (… can’t remember the last time I actually paid for a product) that we’re overflowing with PC + we were able to buckle down and be 100% debt free + many Incentive Trips earned and taken!*
