My kit is here but I am stuck at work till 5:00!!!!!!! This is killing me. i want to take the whole day off and swim in all my new products! GRRRRRR...
But I am SOOO excited. I go out of town on thursday for a week. I am oging to take a bunch of the reading stuff with me in the car (if I dont finish reading it tonight!!!!!)
 
Congrats! Take some of the CD's to listen to, too. And don't forget to take along a few catalogs and order forms, just in case. You never know when you have the opportunity to get an order, booking or consultant.

Awesome idea! I will be with relaitives and friends that live in my city. My one aunt lives 4 hours away but she wants me to do a show for her sometime when i am up there!
I thought getting the first 6 shows would be kinda hard and then i would need to get bookings through those but it has been way too easy so far. i have my first 5 booked (one has not given me a date yet) and i have 4 people who want to do shows but are waiting to sign up under my mom (she is having my first show!)
When i first told someone "i am starting PC. Do you want to host a show?" they said yes right away! i never even got the chance to tell them all the benefits!
I am so excited to go home and dig in later. BUT i get home and only 20 minutes to open it and grab dinner before i am off to my FIRST CLUSTER MEETING!!! And my director is having fall cleaning of some of her totes and products that she doesnt use anymore. I am going to come home with some goodies too! tonight will be a late night! my director lives 30 miles away so i will listen to CDs in the car. Perfect time!
WOO HOO!!! can ANYONE tell that i am excited? (or is it just the double shot latte that i am drinking!!!!!)

oh, and thank you all for everything that i have learned on this site. I went to a meeting with my director and a new recruit (she signed with her that night) to discuss and ger oriented with the company. I knew most everything already! my director and the other lady (both in their 40's) kept looking at me and saying "how old are you???" (i am only 19!) I just had so much knowledge about the ins and outs of things from you guys. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU ALLLLLL!!!!
 
Way to go Sarah! Thanks for scoring one for the young'uns! I love showing up people twice my age! I don't want to offend older people, but people treat me like an idiot just because I am 21! I don't understand how age has anything to do with knowledge!
 
It is such an inspiration to have someone so young so excited about PC. No, age isn't relevant, but knowledge and how you handle yourself and your business is. Just show that excitement in your business and you are off to a fantastic start. You go, girl! (no offense intended). I'm middle-aged, but love learning from anyone any age. I say age (either way) is only a negative if you allow it to be. It's great to see young adults jump into TPC with all the gusto. You have a different perspective than many of us and some fantastic ideas.

I was homeschooled all my life and I have been "socialized" with poeple from ALL age groups. I have had more exposure to adults than kids my age through my whole life.
My goals right now in PC is to have some extra money for my car payment. I just bought a brand new car and want to pay it off within a year. I work full time so this will give me an extra boost. My long time goal with this is to be able to be a stay at home mom (after i get married and have beautiful babies, that is). I just thought i would get a jump start on that. I think i will marry young (if it is Gods will and it looks that way now!)
I am just so excited to GO HOME today and get my kit!!!
