When did you join Mom to Mom? 2003

What do you sell? I sell high quality kitchen tools, and serving pieces.

How/where do you sell? I do direct sales through in home Cooking Shows, Catalog Shows, fundraisers, and wedding registries. We can also do everything online for anyone out of state, or those who just prefer to be paperless.

Areas covered? I travel anywhere within about an hour drive of Saco.

Do you offer a discount to Mom to Mom members or other special services? Yes! 10% off to all Mom To Mom members.

How did you get started in this business? I started when our youngest was about 6 months old. I had always been in sales, loved to cook, but needed to be able to stay home with the boys while making some money. I started slowly, then after a couple of years, was ready to do more.

What's your favorite product/service that you sell and why? Wow, that's hard to choose! Top three products would have to be Stoneware, Forged Cutlery and the cookware. I use each of them just about every single day. I also love being able to help other people get started doing what I do and make the money they need with the flexibility and fun this offers.

A little more about you ... Having my own business has really been amazing. In my past life I was a retail manager for years, hated working that schedule and never felt appreciated. This to me was the perfect solution. I love working with people, love to cook, and need to be able to set my own hours, so The Pampered Chef was the only choice for me. Over the years I have met some really amazing people, and have seen and done things I will never forget! It has given me the chance to be a stay at home mom, and run a very successful business as well. The Cooking Shows are a blast! It's like watching the Food Network and having a Moms Night Out all at once! And as much as I love doing Cooking Shows, the opportunity I have to grow and develop the people on my team is even better.
