Does anyone know....

If my cluster didn't meet the "cluster challenge", but my sales were over $1250 in June; will I receive "the box" of fall items for the amount of sales?:confused:

Thanks:D
 
To get the first level of sell-a-thon you would have had to hold and submit $1500 in sales. The cluster challenge was two shows of $250 in guest sales - you will get one of the Santuko knives if your cluster met the challenge and you held and submitted the two shows. $1250 didn't factor into the equation for June.
 
If you are a super starter you will get the product package of the month you are in with sales of $1250 in June but, as the post above says, you had to have $1500 to get level one of the sell a thon and your team would have had to meet their goal for you to get the Santoku knife.

The best part of the team challenge is that we are learning the name and spelling of that knife - looking for a silver lining...
 
If u are a director and sold $1250 in 3 out of the last 4 months--u will still get ur box of FALL goodies!:D

Thanks Ladies! :)You guys are great w/ the fast answers. Thanks!:D
I sold $1700+ ;) but my team didn't meet the challenge. :(
Does anyone know what's in the first level?

Also, (this is still my first year; not a director -- yet:p -- sorry for the cluelessness)
Should I order Kit Enhance? Booster? now in PP or wait until my change-over arrives and order according to the number they give you on the sheet inside the box?
This is only my second change over and booster. The first time was right at my super starter month; so needless to say my head was swimming!

If it seems like i've made the level 1, why can't I find the shipping status on PC.com?

Thanks! so much for helping me;)

They don't give us the shipping status on things we earn but I believe they are coming TODAY!

The booster kit is available only to new consultants in their first 60 days, if this is your second change over you must be talking about something other than the "booster".

As far as ordering the products at the special consultant half price: You have to decide which products you want/need and how much money you want to spend... I would get the ones that you know you will demo or that your customers will want to see.


This time for the first time I am considering getting a product that I am afraid customers will be disappointed with. The Carafe. It looks like Stainless Steel but is Chrome Plated Plastic. Looks very nice but feels cheap. I don't want angry customers after the delivery of their $64 carafe - especially those that just get angry and don't give me a chance to tell them that they can return it within 30 days for free.

Thank you Beth.
You are so much help to so many! I see you everywhere! What a shining, friendly face full of wonderful advice & info! :)

I agree w/ you about the carafe. I am very disappointed in the cheap change. W/ a Mr. Clean Magic Eraser, the white one always looked "spiffy" & new.
I just got my change over box. Can't wait to look everything over & make my choice for what new products I need (want) :)) The UPS man only dropped this one box, so I might give it until tomorrow, or call HO and just ask.
You all have been so much help! Thanks again!!!
