How long do you need to be inactive for to be able to sign up for a new consultant kit and to sign up with a new director, just curious.

I believe it's now six months. Someone will correct me if I'm wrong.

Woo hoo! I was right. :)

Thanks,
I have been having some issues with my current director. I have to do PC part time because i am a single mom and am in a Masters program. I wish I had the luxury of being able to do more shows but I just don't. My director just seems to be upset that I'm not more of a full time consusltant. I also had my feeling hurt when she told me yesterday that I should not host my own show because I was doing a diservice to my friends by doing that. I've taken teleclasses and the director told us to host our own shows. I just want to be with a director who is more supportive. I'm not sure if I want to go inactive for that long though in order to do it. We will see.

You might check around and see if there is another Director in your area that would let you come to her meetings. I have been fortunate enough to find someone that lets me come to her meetings and treats me like I'm one of her own. I try to give back to her as much as possible because I know she doesn't make anything off me. I didn't make a big deal about it to my Director, just told her the night she has her meetings wasn't working for me. The way this company is set up, you can function pretty much on your own if you want to. This site, online classes etc. I would only consider going inactive if I didn't care about my career sales, and already had another Director in mind to sign up under. And if you already have someone in mind, why not just ask if you can join her meetings??

Have you considered reaching out to your Director's Director? Or maybe reaching out to other consultants in the area and finding someone else you can reach out to? I have trouble connecting with my director, not because we don't necessarily want to, but because our styles don't always mesh, and there is a time zone issue. I have a great Hospitality Director, and I've also reached out to my ED for support as well.
