I was doing well with Pure Romance, well I thought so. Then all things changed and they wanted us to make 200 a quarter, don't seem like much..but for someone selling only here and there wasn't going to make it. So I thought hard on it and decided to leave. I'm on to new adventures now with my other company that don't have a quota like that.

@hillhjill Being obliged to reach a quota is too much stressful.

@LadyDuck it was very stressful and the CEO just kept getting worse and worse..a lot of people left after he changed and he cut commission in half as well.

Thank you, and it does make it hard for us little sellers, the big wigs don't have anything to worry about.

Good decision to leave a company that demands too much of you to meet their high quotas.

It was a lot of thinking because I really enjoyed the company. But it's just getting ridiculous.

@hillhjill I know what you mean when your former employer makes it hard for you to enjoy your work.

I'm with a great company now, I was with them before Pure Romance and put the other company on the back burner. But now I'm doing it full time trying to get my sales to take off.

It's ok, took a lot of thinking but I'm glad that left and went back to what I was doing before.
