    I have been a slimming world member for over a year and have been approached a couple of times by email to see if I was interested. However BEFORE I let them know I am interested I wanted to know how much it costs to set up. I dont want to get bombarded with message and contacted etc just cos I have asked them a couple of questions. Want to see what the cost is and work out ....1 if I can afford it and ....2 if it makes sence financially.

    Thanks again

    IIRC my SW consultant earned approx £1000 a month (two classes a week), paid £20 a week rent for one of the rooms (in a school) plus other bits.

    I think she certainly found the figures worked out well!

  • I've been to one of the opportunity events - well worth it for the info and it's not a hard sell at all. The start up cost is around £1500-2000. It's also a lot more work than you might think. Go along to one of the opportunity evenings and get the full info :)

    I decided against it, but might rethink in a few years

    March's target - keep overdraft below £600 - failed :(

    Proud to be dealing with my debts
