The Job I Hated Most? Sex Toy Consultant


I was a Passion Parties consultant and I was a hack, a complete and utter hack at direct sales. I could not get the hang of being a consultant. It was by far the worse job I have ever had.


It wasn't the sex part or the standing in front of a room of complete strangers talking about sex. No, it was going out and getting people to host a party with me.

I am in awe of the women (and men) who are in sales, especially direct selling and not just Passion Party but Tupperware, Mary Kay, Avon, and Tastefully Simple and on and on. To be able to hustle, get folks to host a party and then ask them to join their team – complete awe.

It took a year and a half for me to cave. It was hard to admit that I was just not going to succeed. I had a great team leader but I was lacking the commitment to just go up to strangers and say, “Want to have a sex toy party?”
