    Director Strangest Home Office Lead I've Ever Had...

    So, this morning I had a HOL. I figured it was okay to call early, since she emailed the lead to HO early. :) I called and said "Hi This is Becky with The Pampered..." and before I could even say CHEF, she started talking 1000 miles a minute. Here was the story - "I'm a former...

    Director Why Do Consultants Suddenly Disappear?

    I say strange, because this is the 2nd HOL I've had with almost the exact same story (but involving 2 different consultants). I had this happen last December too. I had a HOL today interested in hosting a show, so I called this afternoon. The young lady on the other end was in a complete...

    Who is a Home Office Lead in the Pampered Chef Business?

    I went to my first team meeting and a few people asked me where I had come from, was I a home office lead? I just answered who my recruiter was, but did not ask about what they meant. I've seen it mentioned regarding recruits and bookings, so what is it?
