Hey Cheffers,

Can a recruit submit their first show BEFORE their kit comes? I have a new recruit that I just did a show for/with. We used all my stuff to do it but will submit it as her first show. She just submitted her agreement and is waiting for her Consultant number. Once she gets that number can she start submitting shows to count towards her 30 day totals even if she hasn't received her kit yet? I know the 30 days doesn't start till the kit arrives so it is throwing me off.
 
She won't have her P3 software unless she downloads it from CC. But otherwise it shouldn't be a problem.
 
She can download P3 from Consultant's Corner. As soon as she receives her debit/credit number she can begin submitting shows. If everyone on the show paid with a credit card then it is not an issue.

Didn't PC change it so that new consultants can submit show balances with their regular credit card for their first 30 days or something? Maybe I was imagining it...

When I signed a year ago, we were able to use our personal cc for the first 30 days.
 
I believe you can still use your own credit card the first 30 days.. Call HO and check for sure. Otherwise your month would whittle away waiting for the debit card to arrive. Way to get started!!
 
Just had this same conversation w/ my director!:)

She can use her personal credit card - and she can also use your P3 program - there is a way now to have more than one user on a program!:thumbup:

I have a new recruit who has a quick start kit, but isn't signing until the end of August, because she is a teacher, and wants to wait until after the first week of school to have her Grand Opening. She has 2 catalog shows going right now, and is planning on submitting them as soon as she signs, and gets her consultant #!
