Whomever up there said Pampered Chef makes their products without chemicals, is full of it. Unless they’re selling a perfect vacuum, it has chemicals in it. Even air is made of chemicals. The question is, are they harmful chemicals? I would suspect if they won’t tell you what the gravy seperator is made of, at best they don’t know and neither do you. You can’t know if it is a concern if you don’t know what it is made of. That said, information on certain plastics is really just becoming mainstream. I find it most likely Pampered Chef will have a new, improved version before you know it.

I am so sorry to hear all these horror stories, sadly there are disgusting direct sales companies out there. It gives other companies a bad impression- that do have biblical principles and are considered a direct service company rather than direct sales.

Premier Design Jewelry company is one of those amazing companies, earning 50% of everything that sells, no quotas, no inventories, no minimums! Biblical principles and enriching lives of all around them.

Please be aware there are companies out there that you do make profits on and allow you to stay at home with your young children or elderly parents. I stay at home with my 2 year old- because of this company and love it!

As for you Carolyn, what the heck do you know! I was able to be a stay at home mom, got my husband and family thorhg 3 years of his unemployment, and have seen this business transform many lives. We NEVER advocate that this will replace your full time income in a heart beat, but in time yes! I do 8 – 10 sgows a month, mentor a team and make, I am sure, a heck of a lot more than you do. Reason I say this? You are Obviously UNEDUCATED and UNINFORMED!

My husband is a manager of an IT department and I bring home more than he does many months aout of the year!

So, before you tell more people this isn’t a real job, INVESTIGATE! Don’t just blow spout your opinion and try to make it a fact.

You don’t like Pampered Chef, fine! Keep it to yourself! Or at least give us a break and let others decide. You are probably the kind of persont hat thinks anyone who doesn’t vote the way you do are idiots…..given that you vote….

****Hi. I’m Erin. I ‘own this blog’ and no, I will not delete this post. I wrote it many years ago and I STAND BY WHAT I WROTE. And after five years you would think you people would give it a rest already. But apparently not. You know, I have written many things over the course of the past 5 years you might like that have nothing to do with Pampered Chef. Seriously. Take a look around. and then maybe you’ll stop talking about this ONE POST… which, btw, is still making me laugh after all these years. You people are really passionate about your cookware, I’ll give you that much.**** – Erin Kotecki Vest Feb. 8, 2012

Get a real job to support your kids,
your degree in Art History worked out real well didn’t it?

Morons.

For Clay…is it just the Pampered Chef that is the problem? Or is it the “over immersion” of activity families have these days? 92 baseball games? Really? Is he a pro? Or are you of the mind that “he loves the sport” even if it seems more of a job than a sport. You mentioned running around with the kids everywhere…why? Because they like the sports, or mom or dad says that they love it? Kids rarely want to disappoint, and will lovingly burn out to get a parent’s apporval. It seems like your whole FAMILY needs to take a step back, go on vacation, (going to select games IS NOT a vacation…the kids is working).

as far as Pampered Chef…I just signed MYSELF up. Online. They found me a consultant to upline with. No prob. I have a full time job, and this will be my “dirty little secret”, though announcing it on Facebook kind of blew that out of the water. DId I get brainwashed? You mean, like did I convince myself to do it due to a large emission of PC estrogen based alpha rays? No…We have had the products for years, love the products, and as a guy, I think I could do sometning a little different…Us men love to cook.

So, wish me luck, here I go, I won’t bug you (since so many people have already asked about having a party hosted since I let the cat out of the bag on Facebook…lol)

Have a great life, y’all!

Home based businesses can afford stay at home moms a way to use their brains ( in a different way than it takes to raise kids) and an opportunity to make money and socialize. Of course you need to prioritize ; I work when kids are playing or napping for example. I think the people that get so involved in their businesses have issues that usually aren’t caused by the business but by something lacking in their lives.

All I can say is that I would have a WHOLE kitchen of Pampered Chef and am on my way to getting it . Great products and for me that has a health and wellness business makes maintaining my healthy lifestyle easier with these great products !

So my mom wanted to do a catalog show in November because she was going to a meeting and knew a lot of people who had extra money would want to buy. Boy were we both wrong. She took catalogs to the meeting and I even printed out Fliers about the great benefits of hosting in November and free products guests could earn to try and help my mom get orders. That was a complete waste of time because most of them said oh I gotta go home and look at the catalog and I’ll call you. All those people who told my mom that never called with an order. There was a few ladies who called and said they didn’t want to order anything. It’s perfectly fine if they wanna look at the products but what a complete waste of time and money it was for us when we found out they didn’t want to order anything. I’m sorry but people like that are just flat out rude. In the end she only got 150 in sales and it was a check for a pathetic 30.00 check. We did 0 shows in December and so here we are in January almost half over and the 2 people who wanted to do a show after the holidays are not even showing any interest in doing one.

Like I said before Pampered Chef isn’t a scam but you have to sell at least 250 a show just to get 100 bucks from PC. I would say states that have booming economy then of course a lot of people will wanna buy Pampered Chef but states like Michigan where the economy is horrible, people are looking for ways to cut back. Although 250.00 a show seems feasible, not everyone is going to order the more expensive items. The show we did in October we got an order for 12 BUCKS!!!. I would love to even make 100 bucks a month from us doing PC but we can’t even get shows booked or orders so. In November when we tried to do a show, nobody showed up and then my wife’s friends said they couldn’t afford anything but then there they are out buying Android Tablets and not only that but one for her and because she liked it so much she went and bought her husband one too.

The other issue is booking shows. Pampered Chef makes it look like it’s so easy to book a show and those training videos are a complete joke. Nobody is going to be that excited about wanting to order or book a show. Everyone gives us an excuse of why they can’t book a show. Like the other day my friend said ” No I am not having a party” Then I asked why? She said ” I don’t know enough people” Other people tell me “Oh because I don’t have the time” or “Oh, I don’t really have extra money to spend” or “Oh I’ve hosted parties like that in the past and don’t want to host anymore of them”. Our director tries to encourage us by saying “Oh people know and love pampered chef so it sells itself. Also and that who doesn’t love to cook and get together with friends and eat? The products aren’t the problem because they are great and the fact most of them have a warranty on them makes them worth the price alone. The main issue lies if you’re not booking shows and having people from those shows book a show then it’s not going to be very successful. Our director also told us that we’ll get more No’s then yes’s at first but after awhile we will get more yes’s. Easy for her to say as she’s been doing this for 10 years plus and in 2002 the economy was a lot better than it is today.

I really cannot say how much longer were going to be selling pampered chef. What I do know is I think it’s a bunch of crap how you must sell 150.00 a month just to stay active as a consultant. Again our director sugar coats it very well into saying $150 a month is easy to sell. Believe me were trying every month to find people who wanna book shows. Kinda had to sell someone on the idea of having their own pampered chef business if we aren’t doing good ourselves.
