I think i have repromoted to Future - I have a consultant that put in her sales waiver to stay active. She is working on comp exams for her doctorate and her waiver was approved and I signed a new recruit last night - Does this mean I have re-promoted?

I have another show that I submitted a few days ago with a kit credit. And two more shows with host that are mild to very interested in the biz opp

Hopefully when things calm down Susan will have time for shows again but other things are cropping up

Hopefully I will be able to see my FD reports again on the 10th???
 
wow! You're doing great with the recruiting!

I am trying to get better and better at the primarily trying to make sure I ask every one of my hosts and mention at all shows and bridal shows or craft fairs that I do.

I still have so much to learn!
I think I have re-promoted but I am not 100% sure I want to re-promote and keep going! I would love to qualify to go to the FD class at National conferenc but I have to be sure it is steady and get someone else signed. THings look good but you enver know until the person is actually signed
 
I don't think your promotion is effective until June 1st.

You can call PC and talk to someone in Career Solutions to be sure.

I still have TONS to learn. Probably the most important, aside from ASKING, is to contain my excitement. I get so excited that I have a potential, then I'm crushed when it doesn't happen. I thought for sure I would be a FD before my 90 days was up, I had 6+ saying they were interested by my 2nd month:eek: :eek: Didn't happen - only 1 ended up signing. Oh, well........BUT I have been listening to training cd's and really trying to step up my efforts to ask EVERYONE!!

Sounds like you are getting a good system going - congrats!!:)

Oh I am sorry I didn't explain that correctly - I just re-read what I wrote. I signed a new recruit LAST MONTH not last night. I guess being up since 3:30 a.m. yesterday my brain and my fingers were not communicating very well
