Another Newbie Question...about Incentive Points

[ChefJoyJ]

As you know, I haven't signed yet, so I don't have access to all this info...and I'm full of newbie questions. I figured I'd tap the pool of knowledge that is chefsuccess and ask you guys... :angel:

How do you earn incentive points? I know you earn by selling (is it one point per dollar?) Do you also get points for recruits? promoting? Anything else?

Just want to know what all I have to do to earn a level next year...preferably an awesome trip (still dreaming of Hawaii - thanks Amy). Of course, I'm going to run my business the best I can so that my DH will agree to let me just do PC and continue to be a SAHM...but a trip would be incredible - that's my goal for my first year.

Well, that....and becoming a future director (director is in my sights, but one goal at a time), hitting 15,000 in career sales w/in my first 6 months, 8+ shows a month, and most importantly - showing my DH that PC is for real and I *can* do it successfully!

Wow, you do have your goals in line! I don't think I was that organized when I started.

You do earn 1 point per $1 unless they are doing a double points special, then it's 2 pt per $1 in sales. That is middle Jan-middle Feb this year (don't remember exact dates). You do also earn points for recruting, but once again, don't remember off the top of my head. I think you also get 2000 extra points when you qualify. I missed out on that last year because I signed in Nov, qualified in Dec and then the points started over.

All of your goals sound really acheivable, I made $15,000 in less than 10 months without too much of that coming from my first two months so I like to technically say 8 months!

2000 points for each recruit who qualifies, and 2000 points for promoting to director or above, PLUS reduced points to qualify for trips with each promotion starting with FD.

actually it's 3000 for promoting to director

To get the 2000 pts from recruits, they have to qualify before going inactive. Also in January, with $3000 in sales from Jan 1-31, you get a bonus 1500 points (on top of any that happen to be in the double points time frame) & with $6000 in sales, a bonus 3000 points! I'm trying for a full January--except I'll be on vacation for 11 days of it--argh! But I plan on working it for the rest of the month that I'll be here!

How many points do you need to earn to reach each level?

 

[wadesgirl]

They will announce it when they announce the trips at Leadership

Joy; I can't wait to see what you do with your biz! You are going to do great

And if you're planning on doing 8 shows/month; you'll be earning a trip!
