What would happen if I do not meet the $1,250 in commissionable sales?

I have until 8/3/12 to make this requirement, but thanks to cancellations I don't think I will do it. I have my first party {fingers & toes crossed} this Saturday the 28th and will try my best. So am just thinking ahead and looking at what are my options.

Thanks,

Carmen
 
Nothing. You just don't get the bonuses. Just keep booking and promoting your business. You'll get there. Set your personal goals and strive to make them.

So even after the 3 months I can still earn the bonuses?

You wouldnt get the signing bonus for the month you signed...those are "in the first 30 days", but you have a 90 day period to earn the Pampered Chef dollars.....$50 for every $1250 in sales. Day 91.... Nothing extra.

No the new consultant bonuses are for the first 30 and 90 days but you do get commission and our monthy promotions. Always read the flyers to learn deadlines and requirements.

Thank you so much!!!

For the parties I'm having on my website it does not show host name I have to tell them to go into "our products" pick a product then how to purchase and from there they are able to type host name. It's such a pain in the rear.
 
By the way you can totally submit that party before the 3rd, you could even get it in before the end of the month. Take control of your business early - let the host know you have to get it in before the end of the month to meet the goals you have (don't tell her the 3rd or she'll close on the 4th, happens all the time!). The more you work with your hosts, the more they follow what you tell them. I usually don't give my hosts an option, we close their party 2-3 days after their party unless something comes up. That's what I tell them during host coaching and that's what I tell them when we are looking at my calendar at their show to pick a day to close. I put that date in my calendar in front of them so they know that it's serious.
 


Dear Carmen,I understand your concern about not meeting the required commissionable sales. As a consultant, it can be frustrating when cancellations affect your sales. However, I want to assure you that there are options available to help you reach your goal.Firstly, don't be too hard on yourself. It's important to remember that not every party will be a huge success, and that's okay. Instead of focusing on the cancellations, try to focus on the upcoming party and give it your best effort. You never know, it could end up being a great success and help you reach your goal.If, unfortunately, you still do not reach the required commissionable sales by 8/3/12, don't worry. You can always reach out to your team leader or mentor for advice and support. They may have some tips and tricks that can help boost your sales in the last few days. Additionally, you can also look into hosting a personal party or reaching out to friends and family to help you reach your goal.Remember, reaching the required commissionable sales is important, but it's not the end of the world if you don't meet it. As a consultant, you have the opportunity to continue growing your business and reaching your goals in the future. Stay positive and keep working hard, and I'm sure you will see success in your pampered chef journey.Best of luck with your upcoming party and reaching your goal!Sincerely,
