I was just wondering if anyone knew how to find this out. I'm in my 2nd SS month and the response has been overwhelming:D , but I would really like to know if there are any other consultants in my county. I know there are several in my neighboring county. It would just help me in knowing what to expect in the future. Any thoughts???
 
Obviously you can find out about your upline's consultants in the area but otherwise it's not easy. Your upline might know of other directors and teams in the area but otherwise it's not easy to find them. Don't worry! There is plenty of business out there! Some of the very top people in the company live in very small towns.

well my director and upline are in a town about an hour from me....so that doesn't tell me much. But you're right...it's plenty for everyone. I just wish we had a way to see how saturated certain areas are with consultants. It would help me with recruiting/booking stratagies I think. I guess what I"m saying is that I might be more aggressive (not pushy aggressive, just ket off my rump aggressive) if I know there aren't many of "us" around.
 
I say run your business how you want to regardless of who is around you.

My director lives 10 minutes from me and we both keep a busy show schedule and have both signed a couple recruits in the past two months.

There is PLENTY of business to go around!!! I am always shocked when I find people that have never heard of PC!
 
I am so glad I don't know how many people are signed up because I might limit my thinking. I will meet somebody who is a consultant (my dh's co-worker's wife for instance) and then think "oh, I guess she's got that covered" and do nothing. Don't limit yourself....
 
There are 4 consultants that are employees at my College! And we barely step on eachother's toes... and our college isn't huge, it is a state school with about 5,500 students...
 
To find out what Directors are in your area, go to the main page of the PC website and type in your zip code. It will give you one. Then do it again and it will give you another one. I wish it worked for consultants too.

HO once told me that they dont relay how many consultants are in a certain area because it is almost impossible to keep up with - they move around or go inactive...and new ones sign up all the time. There are 4 Directors in my town (23K people)...my advice is just to run your own business as best you can.
