Does anyone know whether the 1st hosts of new consultants receive anything now??? I read in the consultant news that the coffee/herb samples aren't going to be sent any more.

Thanks!
Susan :)

4 in one month, way to go Susan! How did you get them to close the deal?
 
I sent 2 of my hosts the apron 4 sale flyer and they used $40 credit--and I don't know--I guess since I am a hobbyist and I do an express show it really shows how flexible and duplicatable we can be!!!

1 other was really considering it and wanted to do a show first --then she said hubby may lose job and they are trying to get pregnant........but I have left a message and sent an e-mail this weekend

I've never signed that many in a month --2 was the most and that was a double points month unbeknownst to me at the time!!!

So I am excited because I signed 1 in June too!!! another of my girls turned in her 3rd show last nite--she is $20 from qualifying---when I talked to her she was $2 over--so she must have dropped something off of her own:D ???
 
I think it stinks. It was a nice little touch!
 
I'm pretty sure i read somewhere that it doesn't take effect until Sept 1st. I'll try to track down where I saw it. Yep, I found it...it's on page 17 of the special conference edition Consultant News. SO, if you're new and have shows in August, it should still be in effect. It is a nice touch, so I'm bummed to see it go away.:(
 
There was a thread on here from Joy that had print-out labels so you could buy full-size spices and package them yourself as samples for your hosts.
