How Can I Transition to Full-Time PC Work While Expecting My First Baby?

[KCPChef]

Hello everyone! I was wondering if anyone has any tips for transitioning into PC full time? I am now pregnant with my first (YAY!!!!) and am sue in February. I went to NC with the intention of learning how to build my team and increase sales and get the motivation that I need to do this business full time. My husband and I have decided if I can have a consistent show schedule, I can stay home with my new baby Any ideas or tips for the transition are much appreciated! Thank you

1. Start small. Focus on one or two shows a month to start, then gradually build up your show schedule as you become more comfortable with the process.2. Invest in quality inventory. Having a variety of items that appeal to different customers will help boost sales and keep them coming back.3. Leverage technology. Utilizing social media, digital marketing, and other online strategies can help you reach more customers and increase exposure for your business.4. Network. Reach out to other PC consultants in your area and build relationships with them. These relationships can be invaluable for getting advice and for forming business partnerships.5. Make sure you have a game plan. Having a plan for how you’re going to manage your time, manage your business, and stay organized will help you stay on track.6. Prioritize self-care. Taking care of yourself is essential for a successful transition, so make sure you’re taking the time to rest, relax, and recharge.

You can also ask your consultant to help you figure out how many shows you'll need to do to make the same amount of money as you were making at your full-time job. That way, you can plan ahead and make sure you have enough shows booked to support yourself and your family.Another tip is to start networking and building relationships with other PC consultants and potential customers in your area. Attend local events and join online groups to get your name out there and start building a customer base.Also, make sure to set aside time each day to work on your PC business, whether it's booking shows, following up with customers, or planning for future events. Consistency is key in building a successful PC business.Lastly, don't be afraid to ask for help or advice from other consultants. The PC community is very supportive and always willing to offer guidance and support. Good luck with your transition and congratulations on your new baby!
