Average Sales for New Consultants: A Reality Check

[amy07]

Does anyone know what the average sales is per month for new consultants. When I look on CC at the Super Starter recognition I noticed for Dec the high was $11k down to 2K, then for jan it looks like the high was $7k? down to low 2000's. Obviously there are extreme over-achievers (like to be there myself), but does anybody know the real average starting out........and yes I know it depends on the amount of shows but still curious

Our National Show Average is $470 - highest in the direct sales companies.

Does this help you? I wasn't sure about the actual question you asked.

I guess I was hoping that it had been broken down into how actual new consultants do........obviously the more experience you have the better you should do.

It really depends on the new consultant. I have one right now who has submitted 6 shows and has an average of $520. Others have had averages of $300 so I think that the company average is pretty acurate even for new consultants.

I tell new consultants the company average is $470 and in our area it holds pretty true but it all depends on what you do with your business.

If they are concerned by the start up cost I tell them that even if they put the minimum effort in they can get it back in their first month and I share the following:

4 shows at $200 in commissionable sales each =$800. If those shows are all submitted in the same calendar month the commission is 22% = $176 commission. (If some are one month and others the next the commission is 20% = $160 commission)

AND on top of that PC will give the new consultant $100 in PC$$ for products, supplies, conference if they are submitted in 1st 30 days! ($50 if the 4th show is submitted after 30th day and before 90th day) Number of bonuses to be earned are unlimited bases on sales, # of shows and # of recruits.

One additional thing I noticed I missed on this post:

I also tell them that their income is unlimited too! The more they put into it the more they make! I don't want anyone to set their goals at the minimum! But I do want them to know how easy it is to re-coup their investment.
