How to Start a Pampered Chef Business

Pampered Chef manufactures a variety of pots, pans and other kitchen gadgets to make life easier, but the company depends on its independent consultants to sell the products it makes. You can start your own Pampered Chef business by investing in a start-up kit and making contacts.

Instructions

Difficulty: Moderately Easy

1. Visit the Pampered Chef website to learn more about the business model and determine if it's the right fit for you. Not everyone is great at selling things from their own home, but if you're determined you can make quite a bit of money.
2. Contact a consultant in your area by using the link on the website. This puts you in touch with a salesperson in your immediate area who can answer any questions you might have about running the business from your home.
3. Order the Pampered Chef start-up kit when you're ready to take the plunge and start selling products. The kit can be purchased online or from a local consultant. It contains everything you need to get started on selling Pampered Chef products.
4. Look through the catalog and order a few pieces for use in your own kitchen. The more you love a product and the more familiar you are with it, the easier it is to tell others about it.
5. Attend a show hosted by one of the local consultants with more experience. During the show you'll be required to demonstrate the products and encourage people to buy those products. Watching an experienced consultant can give you some tips.
6. Host a small party in your home for your friends, family members and people you know fairly well. Use the party as a chance to demonstrate your skills and get a little feedback about your presentation.
7. Invite more people to your parties and encourage others to bring along more friends. The more people you have coming, the better the chances are that you'll sell a lot of products and get your new business off the ground.
