    hi Yes, consultants get £100 for introducing someone who goes on to become a consultant. I agree, 2000 leaflets in 5 hours is actually impossible! thats 7 per minute!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! unless of course there were loads of you, but the post made it sound like 2 people!!!

    yes its good to have your charity pot next to 'pay' cos most folk put the 5p in there and then when youre running low of 5ps you simply swap some for £1 coin

    Hannah you are not quite right about the options.... you get one copy of every recipe book included in the £600 option plus you get the A frame and banner included too.

    I dont think you need to worry about paying much tax unless you are fortunate enough to inherit a large group from a previous consultant. There are so many things that you can write off any profits that any tax will be minimal. Unless you get at least 50 paying members per week, as you can see...
