Not sure if this is the right forum to place this but, I apologize if it's not.... I looked under consultants for Alabama.. I found one that was only about 20 minutes from me so I sent her a message because I am new to the area where I live, don't know anyone, so I am having trouble booking live...

Wow! I have been doing the Step up Your Business course and it has really helped! When I started doing PC I told myself I didnt want any recruits and after taking this and the director express training I have gotten pumped to go out and share the business. So I have been really trying to...

Just wanted to stop in and say hello to all of you as I am a new member to Chef Success! I am thumbing through posts to help me aquatinted with site and a few of you and to answer my many questions. I am thinking of becoming a PC consultant and have been doing heavy research on pros and cons...

I had a lady who got my info off my car and ordered a cutting board. During our talking back and forth she asked me to drop the cutting board off at her DD's work. I droppped it off on Wed. Well she called me yesterday and it is no where to be found. I am going to go in to the store and talk to...

Well once again I'm going to lose career sales :( I'm only 72.00 away, if I had the extra money I would start buying Christmas gift, but I don't. I've done an email blast offering a special, I posted on FB asking for help to reach my goal but nothing! It's my own fault for not working my...

I had a host recently that did not want the deep covered baker, she also did not want to take advantage of her 3rd half price item, so I used it to order the DCB for me (I had the white one before). Well, I have my open house tonight, so I took it out of the box last night. I am so bummed. The...

Sorry, but I just have to brag a bit. My team rocks! :party: I started the year with 3 in my downline and, as of today, that number has increased to 21! I was wondering how my move from Okinawa to Tokyo would affect the team and if it would cause less productivity from them, but...

...I wonder what HO will think about it. Last night I did a show and a very nice lady who was there, gave me a broken piece of the cover for her DCB and asked how to get it replaced. She had her receipt so I praised her for that ;) but deep down I was like, "Oh boy...what happened and will HO...

Ok, I try not to complain too much, but today has been a bad day. Thought I'd just let it out to people who understand!!! My business is in the crapper and although I'm trying to rebuild it by using "GO FOR NO" which I love, it's going to take time. That dang 90 day rule!!! So, I had a...

Hello all, Those of you who are my FB friends have heard some of this saga, but for the rest, I'll summarize. There was an incident at work. I was the victim. There was a witness. She was my good friend. I got her into my conservation organization, she hung out with my caver friends on...

Anyone here have a child with JD? Our 6 year old seems to have some symptoms so i'm taking her in tomorrow. Trying not to freak out and also thanking God that her teacher alerted me to her need for drinking lately that was such a change in pattern. She's also begun wetting the bed again...

Well, PC has shipped my 4/30 show, containing 2 small orders I combined b/c the guest whined about a measly $4.25 shipping. In the interim, I prepared my "motherless day" project. (Every year I go out of my way to do something special for someone who has either lost a mother, is estranged...

I just missed it at 9 pm but it's airing here again in 2 hours at midnight for those who are interested.

I am so excited I just had to share the news. I reached my $1250 in sales in my first 30 days!! I signed the end of March so I get get DOUBLE PC dollars. That's 200!! woohoo. I also have SIX shows booked already for May....and.....if that's not all. I had my own grand opening and did...

I have to share how great yesterday was! Actually the whole week for PC but yesterday is when I got it all in! After being in the business since 9/2008, I had my first recruit, a friend of a new neighbor who found me because I came over to drop off the hostess packet!!! I'm giving her that...

I haven't been online very much recently. But I need to make this post and I'm sorry, but it will be short. After 6 years of heartattacks and pain, rebounding, heartattacks...cycle..my Grandma Joyce, 86 years old, passed away shortly before 10:30 p.m. this evening. I'm having difficulties...

My girls enjoy making these cookies each year. I love that it gives them a different way to experience the Easter story. This had been posted on here a few years ago and that's where I learned about it. Why not try this recipe and create a meaningful way to celebrate the resurrection of...

I dont know how many of you went to the 90 days to Director yet. But I went on Friday. We talked about red dots..... or people who you identify that are people to follow up with. It was mentioned could be someone that emails you personally. Well the funny thing is that I have never had someone...

I did a huge Mystery Host Show last month - over $1200 and when the orders were all sorted, I was short 1 digital thermometer ( I had ordered 6). I did an online adjustment yesterday ( Friday) and this morning (Saturday), Fedex delivered it! OMG! From Chicago to Cleveland Ohio overnight. I spoke...

Hi all! I have never sold more than about $4,700 in a month or recruited more than one person in a month. Well, that is until this month!!! If I calculated correctly, my sales are at $6,165.48 and I personally recruited two new Consulants. That makes three new people I have signed this...

So here's the history, I met this host at the local home show and got her to book a party with me for the 23rd. I set up a time to meet with her to go over her host packet. She then stood me up. I tried calling her a couple time no answer. I then tried her again tonight and low and behold she...

See, I procrastinate and procrastinate in calling people. "The kids are making too much noise...I should call tonight. Oh, wait...didn't I call these people already? Where are my notes? Oh, maybe I should e-mail them...Maybe I should call and see if they just need a recipe--that's no...

VERY LONG - sorry!! I had a home office lead before Christmas who had the old cookie press and couldn't find her recipe, and could never get it to work anyway. I sent her the current recipe. She doesn't remember who/what/when she got the press. MUCH communication later, during which I...

I was closing a show the other night and trying to re-explain the host benefits to the host. On attempt #7, I re-phrased it from "Free Product Value" to "FREEBIES" and it clicked in her head that she was getting $115 in Free Stuff! The look on her face was priceless!!! She never understood...

I was sick & vomiting last week, but Recruit #2 was able to step in and take my show. 2 days later, the host called me to say that Recruit #2 had talked to her about becoming a consultant & she wanted more info. Recruit #2 had just hit her 30 day mark & does not have recruiting stuff yet, so I...

Help! I can't find my template for telling your story - does anyone have one?

The lesson learned is NEVER use the large metal bar pan to make Ham & Cheese Brunch Squares! Last Saturday, I had a huge brunch party (25 expected - 24 showed up!) and the host had several vegetarian guests, so we decided to do one batch in the stone, and a vegetarian one in the metal bar...

I just closed on a catalog show on Monday. The host was worried when her debit card would go through. I told her I thought it would be a couple of days so she wouldn't have to worry - she was waiting for one check for $200 from someone and was expecting it that day. I sent it in at 1:00 p.m...

So I sent out 5 host packets this morning and I realized I forgot to put the date of thier show in thehost packet. Should I just call them all and remind them of the date or should i mail something out stating the date so they have a paper reminder? Yes I usally do the show flyer sheet and last...
