Did you get the postcard today that the weekly bites was talking about?

It gave this fact below, & I like how to incorporate it into shows;)

At your next Show, say, "I just read an interesting fact. 80% of working women would like a more flexible work schedule. How many of you feel that way? Well, my Pampered Chef® business gives me that flexibility."

You know a lot of hands will go up!
 
I haven't seen the postcard yet. I wondered who they sent them to.

I wondered the same thing. I haven't received one.
 
I received mine today.
 
I got mine yesterday.. At first I thought someone was trying to send me something about PC trying to get me to sign up........
 
I got mine a few days ago.
 
Nothing here!!
 
Nothing here either & I didn't get the other postcard they sent a couple of months ago.

Have you checked to make sure they have the correct address for you?
 
Haven't gotten one either yet. And I know they have the correct address since I get all my consultant news books. I would really like to see it. Hopefully I'll get it soon.

Me too, until I got the email from Weekly bites about it!
 
got mine yesterday. I thought the same thing as mommyhugz1978, that they were trying to get me to sign up.
 
I got mine yesterday.
 
I got mine yesterday too. DH and I were talking about that and it is a HUGE expense to send those to active consultants. I don't see how it is worth the expense, but I am not running the company!!

They have to have the right address because I get the Consultant News every month & I haven't moved since I signed up.

I got my KCN last Thursday.

Gillian: I was surprised to get the postcard too....seems like that fact would have just been published in a weekly bites or something. Maybe they needed some more tax write-offs for this year!
 
Got mine last week. It has taken as long as mid month before though.
 
Actually, it's not a huge expense when you consider how something so little can increase the size of the company and the sales.

Why would you think it's such a huge expense for them when everyone encourages US to send all kinds of post cards to host coach and keep customers informed as well as even sending invitaions for the host!!! Our expense to income ratio is ALOT different than theirs. I think it was a simple tidbit to drop seeds for us.
