We can sign up for Conference Club for '08 now!

I've signed up - small contributions right now while my checks are small, but as I build my business, I'll increase the contributions.

I *will* meet Cheffers in the Windy City next year! :D

All I can think is thank goodness I have decided to up my show schedule... I now have $50 a month coming out ($25 for leadership, $25 for national).

Where can I set this up?

on CC go to consultant and leadership training/conferences/national conference/conference club savings program - once you are there you can select National Conference 2008.

Hope that helps!

PS - I know in the past if you got 2 paychecks in the month they would only deduct your conference club from your month end check (one you receive on the 8th of each month). Just an FYI!

Sharisse is correct - Conference club is deducted from month-end checks. And if you don't have enough commission coming to cover it, HO will save the part you can't cover for the next month.

For example:
I have a month in which most of my sales were submitted before the 15th, and are therefore on my mid-month check. I've only got $40 coming on month-end check.
HO takes out $2 for insurance (running total: $38)
HO deducts $20 for Leadership club (running total: $18)
I'm set up for $25 conference club, but there's not $25 left. HO deducts $18 for Conference club (check total: $0, still owe $7 on this month's conference club)

Next month, I have a kick-butt month, and I've got $250 due me in commissions at month end.
HO takes out $2 for insurance (running total: $248)
HO takes out $20 for Leadership club (running total: $228)
HO takes out the $7 still owed for last month's conference club (running total: $221)
HO takes out $25 for this month's conference club (running total: $196)

I love Conference Club! It really helps paying a little at a time.

However, in the past we could earn discounts on it in January. I earned half price this year. Make sure you set yourself up for a strong January and earn it for free (that is if they continue that incentive next year).

I think it's a good plan. You don't have to come up with the money all at once.

Can you get more taken out of each check and then use the money for expenses their at conference like, let's say, my hotel room?
Let me know please, because then I will definetly sign up for more to be taken out!
Thanks in advance

You can for National, but not Leadership. They take out what you specify, then after you register, HO refunds the extra in your next commission check. So it's actually an easy, painless way to save for conference expenses.

Wahooo, so when you register? :confused: :confused: When you register for conference, like how we did in (was it April?), then in May you get it? or June? Just curious? Thanks!

If you actually register for Conference in April, then it will probably be on your May 8 check.

thanks! Now the issue is can I leave the money alone until July!!?:eek: :eek:
I can always talk myself into spending the money! Not on frivilous stuff, but on bills!!!
Oh well, if I can work my business the way I really want to then it will not be so hard next year financially!
