I've been so bummed to not have been in the lead system since late last fall. It was mostly because of the darn recruit requirement. Even when I put my business on the back burner to go back to work in my previous field, I was still hitting pretty decent sales for barely doing anything. But since I wasn't doing as many shows, I wasn't in front of as many people and not getting the recruit leads. But I FINALLY had two new consultants sign in March and being eligible for leads just kicked in TODAY!! Now I'll be excited again to look at the Shipment Status page all the time!! And I ALREADY got an awesome order for a 10" Executive Saute Pan today. yay!! I'm so relieved and hope I get some booking and recruit leads too.:D:D

Of course this means I'm back in the lead system for cruddy wasted leads too, but oh well! It comes with the territory, I guess.
 
My last h.o. lead was an order for 5 citrus peelers:bugeye: . Cost this person 7.00+ in shipping and tax for $5 worth of products. And, they withheld their info (probably too embarrassed to say who they are) so they couldn't see if I happen to have any on hand to sell.

Yep, I know. The bad comes with the good. Believe me, over the past 5 1/2 years as a Director, I've had plenty of duds.
 
Congratulations!!
 
Congratulations, Becky! :party:I had only been out a month but even those 5 citrus peelers can be better than feeling like you may just be missing out on something decent.
