Hit $15K in Career Sales by Year End with These Insider Tips!

[jkinak]

I just realized that I am less that $2000 away from $15K in career sales and I have 5 shows already booked between now and the end of the year!!! I know some do it super fast after signing, but I signed a year ago and didn't really start rolling a good pace until August. YIPPEE!!! A raise just in time for the FANTASTIC host specials in January and February!!

Way to go! Isn't it nice to get a raise? I am just $2000 away from $15000. I have three shows before year end. I'm hoping to sneak in at least one more, maybe two. It's possible to reach that goal, but I know I'll get it by the end of January.

Keep working, Girls!! You'll get it sooner than you think! That 2% is more than you'd imagine!! I love my charm too!! It's amazing that we can give ourselves raises just by dong what we love to do and working with a company that's as great as PC!! I LOVE my job!

Don't forget...your 2% raise in commission is really a TEN PERCENT RAISE!! We make 20% to begin with, and you earn a 2% raise, which is 10%!! When you are talking to folks who aren't used to a commission pay scale, 2% doesn't sound like as much as it actually is! When you explain that your pay is going up ten percent, it makes more sense to the common layperson who gets paid by the hour!

I'm not that great with numbers, especially percents. Could you explain the 2% is actually 10% for me? The 2% is 2% of what? I guess maybe an example of a show and how it would look might help.

And how does all that relate to the raises we get when we sell so much in a given month? My November is at 23%, so am I getting a slightly higher than 10% raise for Nov? Does it not work with that percentage, too?

I'm just horrible with numbers and am confused. lol
Thanks!

When we get a 2% raise in our commission after hitting $15,000 in sales, the 2% more is 10% of our normal 20%. I guess that's what Kelly means by a 10%raise.

Just got home from a party that is at $797 and has orders coming in from at least 4 others!! It would be great to hit $1000 in guest sales for the first time!! And this comes from a party held by one of my good friends who never wanted a party, only decided to have one so she could show off her new house remodel, and had 12 buying guests at the party!!! oh-and she thinks she wants the cookware half price combo-so CHA-CHING on Pan-O-Rama points!!!
I think she has just been upgraded to my best friend in the world!!

Kelly-yes, 10% raise is something to excited about it. Wonder if I could convince my boss at my FT job that I deserve a raise like that!!
