I have:
2 Inactive - but 1 is supposed to be reactivating in September!
1 Active - but a recruits recruit (who went inactive so she rolled up to me - but doesn't count for my 5 to promote)
1 Active
2 Just signed and working on qualifying
1 signing next week after her show
I'd like to get a couple more to sign this month - I have some I am still working with!
