Hey!! Just wanted to share my good news!!!

Well to begin with, I am a 1st grade teacher and I am assistant girl's soccer coach at the local high school. I started my business last January. I have had consistent months every month, but no recruits... until soccer started, and my sales dwindled all the way down to $0 in January. I really think my director thought I was about to "fall off the wagon," but.... Now that soccer is over... Back in January when i was seeing an end in sight for soccer, I sat down and got on the phone! I booked a full February and here is how my month went:

$3000+ in sales
With...
2 recruits

I am so pumped up! This is why I love my business! I now have a soccerball in my Why Bag because it truly represents the flexibility of this business.

Thanks for all of your ideas and chatting... I love this place, and I love PC!!!!:love:
 
Congrats & yeah for promoting to FD!:D

What part of MS are you in? My sister lives in northern MS.
 
Wow that is great!

Way to go!!! Congrats!
 
Good for you! I guess it further proves that getting on the phone really does work! Now, I just need to pick up that phone... :yuck:!!
