I got the Incentive Packet today with tracker so now I have both packets.
 
I still did not get the recruiting information. Is it coming by mail or FedEx? I received the trip information yesterday. Maybe I'll get it tomorrow and I can watch it while I am snowed in this weekend...boy am I dreading that weather.
 
It came via US Mail. The recruiting info is in a very nice cardstock envelope.
 
My very nice cardstock envelope was all bent up!

Aw, that stinks!

Did you notice that the words on the envelope (and on the folded sheet inside) are lists of cooking terms and personal benefits of PC (grow, support...)?
 
Mine arrived in IL today. But I talked to one of my team members and she didn't get hers. :(

Hopefully everyone will have both packets by the weekend so no one feels left out of the loop. It is crazy how the mail is these days.
 
Still haven't gotten mine. Another friend of mine who is a consultant and lives a few miles from me got hers on Tuesday. I got the one for the trips Wednesday, but not the other one yet. I can't wait to get it and the change over kit!
 
I called home office tonight, she told me all packets have been mailed from vendor. If they get extra, they will mail me one. No way to track.

nothing here either... My weird mail guy is going to be dissapointed when he watches that DVD!!

ROFL!!! You crack me up!!
 
I have been so excited to get this info that I went out to get my mail in the pitch black (at 6:30 pm!). I got my mail, then backed down the road to turn around in the first driveway. Of course, because I am who I am, I got REALLY stuck in the snow berm backing down the road. I was just running out to grab the mail, so I didn't have my cell, but I was almost a mile from my house. I went to the driveway and knocked on the door. The guy and his wife were really nice and let me call my DH. He had the kids still though so the guy offered to pull me out. He did and I thanked him profusely (sp?). I told him I would bring by a thank you treat (PC recipe of course!) soon. My DH was so pissed when I got home because I got stuck, and while I was gone my DS threw up twice. Oye, only me...

I got my incentive trip stuff....whoo hoo...:(
 
I think 2-1-7

There are product numbers, but I don't know when we can order them.

Jan Gilbert from HO did the workshop that included part of the DVD, and she did say that there would be a way for us to order the DVDs in "bulk". I'm going to put them in host packs and maybe run it during pre-show time as guests arrive.

I think we can start ordering new items 2-1-7 :)

And I took a closer look (ha! I crack myself up) and there are prices listed in the mailing. The DVDs are 5 for $6. Cool!

Oh Giilian....I had to laugh because it's comical....but at the same time groan, because I can imagine the same thing happening to me!:o Hope the recruiting packet comes today....and that your trip tp the mailbox is uneventful!
 
Got mine yesterday. Glanced at it last night. I like the look, but didn't notice there aren't any men pictured. I wonder why. Plan to spend some quality time with the packet and the DVD this weekend.
 
I watched some of the DVD this morning and loved it!
I am so excited for my business to take off!!!
Pampered Chef has all the tools in place, there's no reason why I can't do it!

Thanks Becky! It was funny to me, until I saw how mad my DH was! I'll stick to getting the mail only in the AM now!

Yeah - my DH would be pretty ticked off too....especially with DS puking on him...he freaks out when that happens! Maybe that's why my son's last words just before he throws up are "I want my mommy..."
 
Okay - the DVD is INCREDIBLE! I can't wait to be able to hand them out to potential recruits.....I think it's 10 times more impressive than the Empowering Women! Actually hearing and seeing all of stories, and hearing from Doris....I just loved it! (Okay, it inspired me - hopefully it will do the same for recruits!;) )
 
I can't wait to get it!! At least I met someone in the neighborhood and might be able to get a show. At least I got stuck wearing a PC shirt! She didn't say anything about PC, but I thought I would bring them a PC gift certificate as a thank you!
 
I haven't gotten the recruiting packet yet!!:(

I love it too!!! Pair this with the recent pieces of Doris in the news and it's a great recruiting tool.

Here's the link to the one this morning on TV in Chicago
