Does anyone know where in the policies it is stated that we may not sell another product line at our shows? I know it's in there somewhere, but I just can't find it, and it's getting late (I'm visiting my parents in Finland, and it's about 11 PM).

My recruiter has for the second time now sent me an email about another business she's signed up with (it's her third now, including PC). She mentions in her email that it's easy to sell along with PC. I'm going to email her back and let her know I'm not interested, but I also wanted to point out the fact that the way she plans to show this product with PC (I don't know if she's still doing the second product line too) is not allowed. Not to mention recruiting your downline. I know Execs have it in their agreement that if they leave PC they can't recruit their downline, but I'm not sure if it's in the basic consultant terms.

TIA!

I knew that as soon as I asked, I would find it :D It's in the Consultant Agreement.
 
She also can't sell any other product line once she promotes to Director. That's in the Director agreement.

Thanks Ann. :)

I highly doubt she'll promote, she has a tough enough time keeping active. She's one of those people who are attracted to direct sales because they want an easy way of making lots of money. It's demonstrated in her recent email which says the product sells itself (I feel that way about PC), and it's a product that will bring money.

Each to their own, I suppose
 
She'd probably do better if she picked one and really focused in on it, rather than spreading herself out among different companies. Direct sales isn't a get rich quick scheme; you have to work hard at it, and if you're not putting the effort in, you won't make the money. You can't be putting the 3-2-1 effort into multiple businesses without sacrificing something.
