I am in my third month of relinquishment. Today I have 5 active consultants and our team has $4000 in sales. BUT on Oct 1st, one of my 5 active will be inactive.

Will I then go into repromotion OR because I made it up and will have met the requirements by Sept 30th, will I then restart my relinquishment on Oct 1st?

I really need to know so I can take care of this and of course she just tells me today that she doesn't have any sales..... :mad: :grumpy: :eek:
 
I really don't know, but the way I understand it is that since you made your requirements for Sept. You would restart relinquishment. I hope someone who really knows comes on soon. Get out there and recruit!
 
You have 5 active and $4000 in sales and the personal sales requirement for this month so you are good.

On October 1 when she goes inactive you will start month 1 of the cycle.
 
I am not a director but what Beth said is what I thought. I hope you can get her to make a bunch of calls and get some sales in by tomorrow so it won't be an issue.

(Although, I am sure you are already trying - I just thougt I would say it)

Thanks everyone!

I already recruited 2 in Sept and this consultant had assured me earlier this month that she would have $200 but it just didn't happen.

As long as I restart with month 1 of relinquishment, I'm fine with that. I have several other leads and I'm sure one of them will sign under our current promo.
 
Good luck Deb. I will pray that it all works out for you.
 
She counts. It would be nice if she could get an order in by tomorrow like somone else here suggested. This happend to me once and I told my consultant that I would help her with a $60 order I had if she could get orders for the rest. It's amazing what you can accomplish when pull all the stops. Good luck.
 
If you hit all 3 requirements this month you are good for this month. Next month you will begin month one again if your girl goes inactive. I'd ask her to request a sales waiver or leave of absence depending on her situation. It will keep her career sales intact if she's on the fence about staying with PC and buys you some time to get more recruits.

Whew! Thanks all!

My gal going inactive will not collect anything and she was inactive earlier this year and lost a good chunk of career sales already--she was confused by all this new "submit by teh 5th business" and by the time she got around to calling about a waiver it was too late. So she has very little to lose.

Believe me, I will be recruiting my rear off again starting Monday (have my sister's bridal shower tomorow). My goal is to sign two in October and I know I will do it.
 
I would not ask her to do a waiver. When I promoted to director one of my 5 was going inactive the first of the next month (qualified as director in April so promoted as of May 1, she went inactive May 1). That held up my call. They said that if she had requested a waiver she would NOT have counted and I wouldn't have promoted. I did call her when they told me that and she said she didn't plan to request a waiver anyway. I would have been disappointed but it would have been okay because I would have had the 5 without her the following month.

Not sure this would work the same for an existing director...
 

Frequently Asked Questions

What does it mean to relinquish a directorship in Pampered Chef?

Relinquishing a directorship means that a current director is voluntarily stepping down from their leadership position within the Pampered Chef organization. This can happen for various reasons, including personal circumstances or a desire to focus on other priorities.

How do I initiate the relinquishment process?

To initiate the relinquishment process, you should contact your upline director or the Pampered Chef support team. They will guide you through the necessary steps and provide any required documentation to formalize your decision.

Will I lose my sales team if I relinquish my directorship?

When you relinquish your directorship, you may still retain your sales team, but they will be reassigned to another director. You will no longer have the responsibilities or benefits associated with being a director, but your team members can continue to sell and earn commissions under new leadership.

Are there any consequences for relinquishing my directorship?

Relinquishing your directorship may affect your earnings and leadership status within the company. You will lose access to director-specific incentives and bonuses, but you can still remain an active consultant and continue to earn commissions from your personal sales.

Can I regain my directorship after relinquishing it?

Yes, it is possible to regain your directorship after relinquishing it, but you will need to meet the current requirements and go through the application process again. It's best to consult with your upline director or the Pampered Chef support team for guidance on how to proceed.
