CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!!!!!!! Way to go!
 
WHAHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO Colleen!!!!!!!! Congrats!!!!!!!
 
congrats Colleen!!!!
 
Okay... not that I'm expecting a parade or fireworks, but since this is my first trip achievement, what happens next? Do I get notified that I've earned it? :o
 
Yay Colleen!!!!! Congrats!! I don't think there was any kind of official email when you first earn it. In maybe January or early Feb, you'll probably get an email about when you need to regsiter and officially claim whether you're taking the trip or the gift card.

But it's just awesome to know you earned it already!! Way to go on your first trip!
 
Thanks Becky!!!! :)I'm pretty excited now! It took a while to sink in and feel proud of myself. My upstairs neighbors decided to play Rock Band starting at 11:45pm last night. I popped an Ambien to get through it and the fog from it lifted about an hour ago!!!!

CONGRATULATIONS!

I have the points too...BUT I have a host who is "Deciding on one more thing" for her order. Once I submit that show, I'm over the top! It's fun to know I've earned my first incentive trip, and even more fun to know I've earned it BEFORE the end of the year! No stress. :yuck:

WooHoo! I'm so happy for you!!! :D

I'll be celebrating with you in a few days! I just submitted a show & am sitting at 50,231. Shelby over on Consultant's Corner was struggling to submit before her 6 months ran out. She had 2 weeks to go. Another consultant & I both suggested that she let her time expire & re-sign under someone that she liked (since she was very disappointed with her current upline). Her hubby talked her into doing it with me! :D She's already done over $1,100 and her 1st 30 days is not up until the 5th of Dec. She's trying to earn a SAT package, so she's really working on qualifying before the end of the month. As soon as she qualifies, I also earn the trip! :D

Shelby's updated her signature now on CS and is showing $1278.65 in sales. It's not showing up on Consultant's Corner yet, but as soon as they get it updated and I get the 2,000 points for her ... I'm in for the Toronto trip too! :D
 
Wahoooo!! Way to go ladies!!

Okay, anybody had experience with someone re-signing? It's been 1.5 days & there are no incentive points on my screen or Shelby's screen for her qualifying! The rules say:
Recruiting Points:
These include all recruiting and bonus recruiting points. Earn 2,000 points for each qualified recruit. To receive points for a personal recruit, the recruiter's name must appear on the appropriate line of the Consultant Agreement. A recruit counts toward the 2010 incentive program upon submitting his or her first $1,250 in career sales received in the Home Office between Jan. 1, 2010, and midnight (CT) on Dec. 30, 2010, or Dec. 31 for electronic orders. Points for a qualified recruit are awarded only once. No points will be awarded for a recruit counted toward a prior incentive program.

I'm wondering if her last recruiter is counting her for this year & because she re-signed & re-qualified in the same calendar year if she perhaps doesn't count for me???

ETA: Nevermind, she got my e-mail & said that she qualified in 2009. So I guess corporate is just being slow! ;)

WooHoo! The points are there now!!! I've officially earned my first PC trip! :D
 
That's awesome Sheila! Congrats!! Cheering from TX! Glad Shelby's points counted! =)
 
Go sheila!!!!!!!! Congratulations!!!!!!!
 
Way to go Sheila! I was going to add that the consultant had never qualified under you, so the fact that she qualified before should not factor in at all.
Wahooooo!!!!
 
Way to go Sheila!!!!!!!!!! :party:
 
I'm 700 points away from gold. I am sooo excited!!!I will get 500 for being paid as an AD this month, and as soon as I submit the show that's sittin in my puter it will be OH- fishal!!! Happy happy happy dance....

YAY Sheila and Becky!!!!
 
Wow, you guys are all AWESOME!!! HOw exciting!!!
 
Congrats Sheila and Becky!!!

Even though I did not earn my dream trip to Hawaii (unless you know someone who will purchase roughly $13,500 in products), I am very happy that I was able to sign and qualify 6 consults! That was the part I was sure I wouldn't get even if I had gotten the points.

Congrats Wendy!

We don't feel comfortable going half way around the world and leaving the kids on a military base in Japan with friends, so we are planning to buy them in on the trip. I e-mailed my sister to see if she wants to meet us there and be our Nanny for three days. Hubby wants to extend and stay longer, so we would vacation there with sister and BIL beyond the PC activities. Hubby has friends there in Toronto as do I, so we are both excited about seeing our friends too.

Congratulations, Wendy!!!!:party:
 
WOW! Congratulations Ladies! :) How EXCITING! :))))

Can't wait to meet you all in Toronto! :) I'll earn it as soon as my newest recruit qualifies. I know she'll do just fine but she has me riding her tail! :) I have it in sales for sure with 7 cooking shows in the first 10 days of December. I only need $8 so I'll be just fine. :)
