If you see them in a store or wherever and you do not know them? Would you talk to them and strike up a conversation or let them be?
 
I'd strike up a conversation. I'd want to know where they lived. Though, I've never come across anyone else that sells PC in my 6 years.
 
Of course I would!
 
Definitely!
 
Depends how I feel. Sometimes I'm in a rush. But most of the time I would.
 
Yes! I'm on a small island, so I invite them to our cluster meetings! :DIt's always good to know the other consultants in the area and to have a good rapport with them.
 
I talk to them let them know they have support in our area. You can never have enough support I welcome those who talk to me.
 
Of course! I talk to everyone. ;)
 
The only time I saw another Consultant who wasn't in our cluster (other than a good friend) was when she was getting into her car at the grocery store, and I was still sitting in mine, so didn't have the chance to talk to her. If we had been in the store at the same time, and she had logo wear, or another way to identify her as a PCC, I would absolutely talk to her (or him - sorry guys, don't mean to let you out). This is one (of the many) things I love about this company - no sense of competition or territory (well, there shouldn't be, but there is a small percentage of that personality type). PCCs I've met have always seemed to enjoy sharing ideas and stories. When I was at Chick-Fil-A last night, there was an SUV with a window sign. The PCCs name is Amanda, but the only person I saw at the vehicle was a guy, so didn't think he was the Consultant! I so wanted to shout out the window, though, "Is she going to Chicago?!" haha
 
Sarah - you should have!
 
I wish I could talk with the other consultant here. I tried, and also offered to take turns at Bazaars, etc., and she bit my head off. Not sure if she is still a consultant though.

I was in the drive-thru lane, so I couldn't take the time to start a conversation, if the hubby felt like being talkative. Had we been going inside, I would have just walked up to him and asked.
 
Her loss Kay! ;)
