What is potential: Definition and 155 Discussions

OK, here's a couple good questions for y'all. I have a potential recruit who has a laptop, but no internet access. Her laptop doesn't even have a wireless card. 1. Will she be able to run P3? I kind of doubt it, since it requires internet access to update. 2. How does she go about doing...

This?:confused: : "Dear Heather: Being a single mother, I have very few resources to depend on for child care in the evenings and/or weekends. As well as the need for benefits. I only have myself to depend on for support and it would be hard to start this type of business at this point in...

to generate an email to a potential wedding registry candidate without first setting up a registry? I was looking around last night but couldn't find anything. I know they have the form letters when you set up a show but I am looking for something I can include in my packet to a potential...

They don't have the commission structure on any of the new recruiting brochures. Does anyone have anything made up for that yet? I will post mine when I get it done, too!

Hello! I have a question about a fundraiser idea I have and need some help with this. There was a family in the area that lost their home due to a fire but worse of all had one of their children die in the fire. The mom is in the hospital because she went back into the house to get her...

So, I've been having a really hard time finding bookings, and I only have one show on the books for the future. It's a week and a half away, and I had not been able to get a hold of the host once to get her guest list. I was starting to think she was going to cancel on me. Well, it turns out she...

i need to send out a letter to a large group of people that want to book shows. i have been overseas for quite a few months and this is a letter to all my potential hosts to get things rolling. i was going to send an email to everyone and then follow up with phone calls - but i just wondered if...

I have a new potential what is in the new kit if she signs after the 22nd. And what is the difference after (for sales?) Thanks for your help

I have a very bare January calendar, and have a lead who I obviously want to book. I don't want to come off pushy or desperate, but I am! She is a catalog consultant for another direct sales company, but is interested in the cookware. She has Gen. II family skillet, which she is looking to...

Someone at one of my parties in interested in hosting a party. She asked me to email her with more info. Does anybody have a flyer or email they send out. That explains different types of cooking shows such as dessert theme, or appetizer... Also, maybe times of day for shows. (She may be...

I have a guy from an Oct show that is on hold due to his declined card that is DRIVING ME BONKERS!!! He booked a show, took recruit info and I'm now unable to get a hold of him!!! As a matter of a fact, I HAVEN'T BEEN ABLE TO GET A HOLD OF HIM SINCE THE NIGHT OF THE SHOW!!!! He picked a date for...

I am looking for dips...a potential hostess would like a dip show...lol...any ideas?

Just started my P.Chef website, and got an email from a woman that may want to do a show, does anyone have a letter they use for potential hosts?:) Thanks!

WOW! I attended a Bridal Expo on Sunday. I made my way around the room to meet the other vendors. I stopped by the Passion Party table. She seemed friendly enough. And then, it happened... Her: "So, what do you really make?" Me: About a $100-$150 a show Her: "And what's your average...

I need some advice. I believe in asking every host (as we all should) if she's ever thought about doing what I do. But I have a host coming up on 9/17 who did a July Catalog show of over $600 and is doing a Sept. cooking show. I really think she'd be a great consultant. But before she says...

I have a host that will let me know at her show next week if she wants to sign up. Since there is not a recruiting promotion going on right now, will I get anything for her signing up? I wish there was a bonus for her too right, but I do not want her to wait for one in case she should change...

Which would be my first. She asked what if she didn't get to $1,250 in sales during her 3 month super starter? Also, what happens when you go inactive for 1-2 months? What are the reactivation fees. I have only been in this for less than a year and don't feel I got the training I should...

Hi Everyone, I have a potential recruit I need to mail some information to. Can everyone tell me what you include in packets. She's also having her first show in August so I have an opportunity to show her what it's all about (she's never been to a show before):) . I really don't want to...

My director and I were talking about having an opportunity night. It would just be an informational meeting to which we would invite potential recruits. Has anyone done this before, how did you present information during the evening, do you have a post card idea, adn was it worth it? We're...

I've noticed lots of threads on how to deal with wishy washy "potentials" and what to say etc. It's funny because the dialogue I use when I call is a really good combo of many of the ideas that have been mentioned here. I just thought I'd post it, as it may be of some help... "Hi Nikki...

What would you send to a potential host for a fundraiser to encourage her to do it? I already emailed her about how it works so what do you recommend sending her in the mail?:confused: She sounds very interested about hosting it at her home but needs more information.

I have a show next weekend where the host is interested in signing. She seemed very enthusiastic about it on the phone and when I talked to her in person at the show she booked from! She appears to be a nice, outgoing girl, and I think she'd make a good consultant. There is one problem...

Hey all, I have a girl who is REALLY interested in signing. I'm not sure what information I can pass on to her that would be helpful. I talked to her about the opportunity a little but not much. I am doing a show for her sister next week and told her we could set up a time then to talk about...

:confused: I have a 'meeting' with my first potential recruit tonight, and I'm really nervous! I've lightly talked with others at my shows about becoming a consultant, but never has someone ever been seriously interested! Funny thing is, she is from a catalog show (DH got orders from work)...

I feel like an idiot, but I was totally unprepared when this woman's answering machine picked up! :rolleyes: I basically just thanked her for coming to Saturday's show, hoped that she had fun, and wondered if she had had a chance to look at the information I gave her. I told her I'd love to...

I am pretty new and have 3 potential hosts to solicit come spring time. I was wondering with regarding tool turnabout ideas, pampered bride apron and bride cake. Do you suggest to the host to purchase these items for the bride beforehand (to have them at the shower) ?? Or do consultants give...

Anyone have one? I have a potential recruit that I want to send some information to. I would like to include a little letter hitting the high points of becoming a consultant. ANyone have anything like this? Stacie

This recently happened to one of my hosts and I will use it as an example in future host-coaching. A few days after my Host had her Kitchen Show her husband was chatting with one of his co-workers in a logging mill. They live in an area where logging, hunting and fishing are the way of life...

Hi All, Just wanted to get your opinion on something: I have a potential recruit that told me she was interested in signing up. I gave her some information and told her that I would call her in a little while to go over it. I called a total of 3 times, no call back. Anyway, her mom...

Hi, I'm thinking of signing up to be a consultant with PC and have some questions. First of all, I really hate giving presentations, but I'm hoping this will help me become more comfortable speaking in front of groups. What kind of assistance can I expect from PC or my director with...
