DebbieJ said:Way to go!
(your promotion will take effect on June 1st, just so you know)
janetupnorth said:Personally, I don't know why more guys don't get into the business. Guys really do tend to have better sales, etc.
Maybe because they tend to naturally view it as a BUSINESS?
chefsteph07 said:Keith, congratulations!
By the way, are you doing better at getting your bookings?
janetupnorth said:Deb, for FD isn't it title immediately, overrides on June 1st?
DebbieJ said:Hmm....good question! Time to pull out the P&Ps!
leftymac said:It's all social stigma, I think. Most of the PC marketing materials are very feminine looking, and not many guys are comfortable promoting that, unfortunately.
I don't know about the better sales, though -- but I guess that's because I'm still new. My bookings and sales are nowhere near where I want them to be! But then again, I don't just go up and talk to any old individual about PC. I have an issue talking to strangers.
How do I get over that? I have no clue! It's hard to easily overcome a habit you've had all your life. Like when I'm in the grocery store, I don't talk to other people in line (nor do I really like it when they talk to me). Sometimes I can be quite social, but I usually wait for the person to initiate it.
Did I just hijack my own thread?

My advice to you would be to get some PC logo stuff and WEAR it..a hat, whatever, I know Merrill has some nice polos...
Case in point...a few weeks ago I was leaving my dr office, wearing my PC sweatshirt and I got in an elevator w/ someone who immediately asked me if I did PC, I said yes and did she like the prods, etc, she said that she JUST HAPPENED to get an email the DAY BEFORE from her consultant who said she is getting out of the business due to some family things. I had a catalog with the specials inside and I handed it to her and asked her if she'd be interested in doing a show and "trying me out"..she said yes and we booked for this Friday! Then, when we were getting out of the elevator she specifially said "I'm so glad you wore your sweatshirt today, I cannot wait to have my party! You should wear it everywhere you go!"..(I usually do anyway! LOL) Just saying, you NEVER know where your next booking is going to come from, so be prepared and at least wear a button or something! ha ha
Good luck getting your mad bookings!
leftymac said:Thanks! I have the catalog tote but I feel like a total dufus carrying it around b/c it's more like a purse. I swear they need a messenger bag! I have the duffel bag from Merrill that I take to the gym every day, and make a piont to go get something from the grocery store right afterwards while I'm still wearing it. I think I do need to go get some shirts, though...
janetupnorth said:PC USED to have a backpack - people loved them and everyone was buying them from the surprise packs last year. I sold mine to my recruiter because SHE had REALLY wanted one or I would sell it to you.
I should really make my DH wear some PC shirts at camp!
