OK, so if you haven't figured it out yet...I am signing back up to do Pampered Chef!
I am SO excited!!! I easily gave up Avon, but just had a constant bug in the back of my head with PC. I asked God to remove it if it wasn't something that I wasn't supposed to pursue. Well within 1 month I had 4 people asking me to order them Stones. I had to turn them down, but then went back to them and told them to give me some time.
I talked to my hospitality director aka my mentor. She did some research & found out that I can sign up with only paying $65, compared to $155 and I had to send in a letter asking to go under her, not my old director that I never knew.
I am SO excited!!!!
So, Now I need some shows booked. Get ahold of me and lets get you on my calendar!!!
If you book a show in the month of October, I will give you a Bar Board for FREE! Just leave me a comment either here, on Facebook or email me!*Sales MUST reach $150!
