Weight Watchers leader salary?

Does anyone know what a starting salary for a Weight Watchers leader is
in, say, New York State? I suspect there must be some percentage of
commision based on the number of attending members, and probably a base
salary too. Any idea of how much each is? Thanks.

I don't know about New York, but I'd say that it can be safely labeled as
"not enough" anywhere in NACO

If you're going in to make money, look somewhere else, it can be slightly
paying at peak season, but to clear a decent salary at Weight Watchers
you've got to be able to put everything aside to do only that.

When one works for WW, it's for the rewards of helping people, for the joy
of sharing what made our lives so great, the money is there of course, but
it's more the kick in the butt when you're too tired to move than the
driving force of your work.

The other thing is you have to be willing to take meetings at all times
in all places. It's not like a 9-5 job in one work place. My leader
goes all over the city to teach classes in the work place in additon to
those at the center.

Ask the staff at your meeting.

I do appreciate that the main reward would be helping others and that
the hours would not be typical 9-5 Mon-Fri. I also know that the
salary is small.

Here is my situation... I've lost over 90 lbs which brings me almost
2/3 to my goal weight. I've calculated my weightloss thus far, then
slowed it to reflect increased difficulty as I get closer to goal, and
coincidentally, I will be moving away from my current job (which is a
part-time supplemental income) at about the same time I should be
reaching goal. I'm just trying to "guesstimate" what the potential
earnings might be.

Regardless of how little it may be, I know I would still like to become
a leader. I just want to get an idea. Can anyone tell me how far
below minimum wage the base salary is? What percentage of the weekly
fee and what percentage of sales goes to the leader?

I would assume that unless there is some commission which I doubt,...wages
have to be at least minimum wage...I would also guess it is more than
minimum wage...Good luck...GG

I'm curious -- is it different in different locations? Is that why
you're reluctant to share that info here?

It's not my place to tell, to be honest, I don't think my salary is
anybody's business either, I find is strange too that somebody would ask
that kind of question on a public news group.

Also it IS different from regions to regions (I think)
