Revive Your Direct Sales Career: How to Go Active Again and Boost Your Success!

In summary, the recruit has not submitted any shows yet and has had a show scheduled but then there was a death in the family. The recruit has a catty going on with her co-workers. Her 90 days ends 9/30/07. If she goes inactive, how does she become an "active" consultant again? Normally a person just has to submit a show, but for a recruit that has not done any shows yet, she would need to submit $200 in commissionable sales in one calendar month.

I have a recruit that has not submitted any shows yet. She has tried getting a few shows in, but with no success. Had a show scheduled, and then there was a death in the family, so it is now postponed. She has a catty going on.

Her 90 days ends 9/30/07. If she goes inactive, how does she become an "active" consultant again?
 
Normally a person just has to submit a show, I would think that this would work for a recruit that has not done any shows yet.
 
She would need to submit $200 in commissionable sales in one calendar month. That can be in one party or in a combination of individual orders submitted through PP or P3.
 
Thank you Beth, I forgot to type the $200 in commissionable sales :blushing: I know that part...just didn't type it.

Also, be aware that if she goes inactive without qualifying neither of you will get the trip points even when she does qualify.

Any chance she can maybe do some early Christmas shopping or something to at least get the sales in to stay active? I know she's been through a lot lately and I empathize with her but that is a possibility if she wants to take it.

NOTE: She would order the gifts in the name of those she is giving them to (if she ordered them in her own name they wouldn't be commissionable).
 
Maybe she could host a mystery host show or catalog show and give away the benefits. Kind of a "Guess what I am doing now!" and you may benefit! letter.
