Did I Misinterpret the Disney Incentive Rules?

[OhmyDLM]

Oh and I did read the tracker sheet for next year's incentive and the same old wording about the 50% requirement is there... I have a feeling, if they really mean for it to be 50% of INCENTIVE POINTS, someone will be fixing that flyer ASAP! I don't think they'll want to deal with this issue again, too much drama and headache on everyone's part. LoL I've got a fiery Senior Executive Director, and I love her!!!

When is the official word supposed to go out to everyone that earned the trip. Also, does anyone know when they give out the travel money for level 2 or for those choosing for 3 and 4 to get their travel affairs in order?

I think even when everything is safe (regular sales and recruits) it is scary or nerve racking waiting for the "official" word.

I never thought of the issue you are having with almost all the points I have being core. It is a fine way to get those points with recruits!

Well, my sales manager told me that the auditing process was going to start when the download takes place on the 10th. That's all I know for sure. Perhaps someone else knows some exact dates! And I so agree with you on "official" word! It's a bit frustrating that you can't really contact anyone to double check BEFORE the incentive period is over to cover all your bases, because then you arn't left with anytime to correct anything that might be wrong. I'm so close to the 26,000 that had I known their interpretation of the rules when I thought I had already earned the trip on the 15th of December, I would have still had two more weeks to put a plan in place and collect those sales! Instead, I focussed pretty much all my time and energy in training my new people and getting them qualified! I still don't feel bad about that because my team is getting stronger because of it and I know good things will come from it so I think it was a good and productive use of my time, just don't take my trip away!!!

Thank you on the recruiting congrats! It was a great year for me on that aspect. I actually had 2 kitknappers too and one girl who is still working on qualifying. She'll just count towards next year's incentive right!!!

 

[ktraceyk]

She will count for the 2011 trip. I checked that as I have one that still needs to qualify from this year and 1 I am hoping will but think she will be a kit napper.

Darcy, did you get notification that you earned the trip this morning. I am curious because I still have not been able to get a straight consistant answer about the core points. HO says you need 50% of the total trip points to be from core points. Various levels (NE, SDs) tell me no????

 

[OhmyDLM]

I DID GET THE EMAIL, just opened it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I haven't heared anything back from my complaint letter to the solutions center, but I DID get the certificate by email saying that I earned the trip!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Home office is also telling me 26,000 points, my Senior Executive Director and all of my upline say it's not so and that's not how we trained our teams. They were all willing to fight for me, but it appears like we won't have to, since I got the email with my certificate today!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

However, I still sent an email to my sales manager claiming that I want this part of the policy clarified for the future as it is quite possible I, or someone on my team, could be in this position again, and I surely don't want anyone to stress over it again like I did! Plus, we should know how to train our downlines with the correct information anyways! Don't you think?

Congratulations Darcy!! I have been wondering if you'd gotten confirmation yet...this is good news!!! Yeah!!!

 

[baychef]

YIPPEEEE!! Now you can stop getting sick to your stomach with worry!!!arty:

 

[PampMomof3]

Yeah Darcy! That's AWESOME news! Congrats!! Print that certificate and display it proudly!

 

[dannyzmom]

Congrats Darcy!!!

 

[OhmyDLM]

Thanks everyone! Your support and well wishes have been so comforting during a very trying and stressful waiting period!

Again, I haven't gotten official word yet on clarification of the "program rules" from career solutions, but from what I'm able to put together myself after getting my confirmation certificate of earning level 2 after the auditing process is this....

***1/2 of your INCENTIVE points DON'T need to come from core sales, rather that 1/2 of your SALES points need to come from core sales. (the people answering the phones at home office are what started this whole mess and have fed our confusion!)

***You CAN go inactive, including loosing your career sales, and keep your incentive points for the trip! (I'm really thankful that they clarified this in the new trips program rules description! Now to get them to clarify the first part better for us!)

Wow, if I can make it complicated, I surely will Leave it to me!!! hahaha

 

[pamperedbecky]

Great news, Darcy!! I'm SOOOO glad you got the official word. Way to go!

 

[jwpamp]

Yeah Darcy!!

Now all I need to do for Level 3 is recruit and qualify 40 people so I don't have to sell anything....that would be hilarious, don't you think?

 

[OhmyDLM]

hahaha! Well my sales manager from home office just called me personally to congratulate me on officially earning the trip! She also told me that it's clearly written that 50% of SALES points (not incentive points) need to come from core sales and that the home office personel have mis-informed us. She encouraged me to keep up my strong recruiting for this year's incentive program, throwing in that it wouldn't hurt to add a few more shows too LoL. I couldn't be happier right now A seriously huge weight has just been lifted from my shoulders, now let the Disney planning begin!!!

YAY!!!! arty:

 

[chefkathy]

woooooohoooooooooo!

 

[PCJenni]

thanks for the info Darcy!

 

[quiverfull7]

I am SO glad this is over for you!

 

[OhmyDLM]

thanks for the info Darcy!

Thankyou for bringing it to all of our attention Jeni! Afterall, we all called and got the same exact info from them, which is so contradictory. After hearing it from home office, I just about flipped my lid! LoL I'm just glad it ended up working out in my favor, hahahaha But I would still like to see the wording clarified so no one has to be in this situation again!!! I'm SOOOOO excited I'll be seeing you and everyone else in Disney this June!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[pamperedbecky]

Way to goooo!!!!!

 

[cincychef]

Congratlations Darcy!!! I am so happy for you.
