I'd hate for you to quit from a company that you love with products you love. What takes so much time/work that you're not happy with? I don't know anything about your company or products, but what's nice about "being your own boss" is you can change what you're not happy with.
For example, I was getting frustrated how much I was taking to parties, it used to take me 4-5 trips to the car with all my stuff I was bringing. What happened is that I wanted to show everything and it looked like I was moving into the hostesses house! So I cut waaay back on what I was bringing. I still bring a variety (a print, florals, pottery, candles) but 2 pieces of pottery instead of 4, 1 print instead of 2.) I now make 2 (not heavy!) trips. I'm much happier! I also added to my invitations for each person to bring their favorite Home & Garden Party item to get a gift from me (a votive or auction money.) Then that helps me show more products and then I have guests talk about what they brought and why it's their favorite! That helps with my presentation too!
Does that help? What else are you unhappy with and how can you change it so you are, so it fits your schedule and lifestyle?
