Weightwatchers leader

nanamoan

Does anyone know much about the financial aspects of becoming a weightwatchers leader? How much money per head? etc. I have done Ann Summers and Virgin make up etc before.

thanks,

I believe you have to be invited to become one when you reach your goal weight with Weight Watchers.

I don't know how much they earn, but I do know that they tend to stick with it for some time (or the two that I have come into contact with have), so presumably it must be worth their while.

They were advertising locally a few weeks ago, in a local newspaper.

They did not display the wage, and asked if people applying could supply their expectations. Sorry I couldn't help more!

You can phone up there customer services and ask about it and you can apply when your within 1 stone of your goal weight - was going to do it when i was a member 2 years ago. You do not have to wait for your leader to invite you as some people would never be asked.

I can't remember the exact ammount but i know the clerks who help out got 20p per member weighing in for their pot and i'm not sure if its about 1-2 pound for the leader? I know a lot of it is down to how much you can sell the ww products too.

Best thing to do is give the customer services a ring and they'll give you all the info you need.

Hey thanks guys... yes, they have actually asked me to become a leader and gave me a pack but it doesnt really tell you anything other than you are self employed and need room in your house to hold the equipment and it costs £50 to start up. They told me all about the training and expectations of meetings etc but just said to expect to earn on average £75-100/ week (apparently you can earn up to £21k, according to their blurb). I expected it to be about £1/ member for the leader but am going to check this week.

Thanks,

Hi, When they say £75 - £100 per week is this for running one meeting. The weightwatchers leader that I see runs about 5 meetings and I know the one I go to is pretty packed. Am interested in becoming a leader myself but worried about losing money as the hire of the hall would not be cheap. Would appreciate any info. Thanks.

Why dont you ask your leader?

You earn 70p per member, and a percentage of the shop sales.

Weight Watchers leaders are now employed by weight watchers being paid every 4 weeks, you also recieve a few £'s for using your home, and you get travel exspenses,

You have to attend monthly meetings with a area manager for 3 hours, along with training days each quarter.

It takes alot more time than some people realise to prepare for the meetings and organise stock etc...

It is however a very rewarding role
