Wish me luck! If she signs, I'll be a future director!! AHHHHHH!!!

I am currently in contact with 2 hosts (one past, one current) that I want to discuss the opportunity with. Both of these individuals do not have a computer. I know they can submit a paper Consultant Agreement but how would they submit their shows if they signed?

One of my past hosts just gave me a call tonight asking more about the business, telling me she really needs to make some extra money to help make ends meet, and wanted to know more. She's done 2 shows with me (and several family and friends of hers have done shows, as well), and PC was the...

I just got an e-mail from the host of an upcoming show and she mentioned that she had thought about becoming a consultant. She asked about our commission rates (she also sells Mary Kay, so I guess she was just comparing) - I'd like to give her some more info, but I'm not sure what to send her!
