Discover Eco-Friendly Postcards for NC: Going Green Tips on the Back

[akrebecca]

Do we really have to bring them to NC like it says on the back?

 

[pamperedpals]

Yes, if you want to receive a special gift. At least that is what I read on the conference information page on CC.

 

[esavvymom]

Uggh! I forgot about that....April is sketchy for me right now too. Darn!

 

[akrebecca]

Mental note: Put these someplace 'special' so I don't misplace them or forget to bring them. Maybe my suitcase? Nah, I won't remember to put them there. Fridge? Nope...kids like to rearrange the magnets & other items posted. Bathroom mirror? Definitely not. They would be forgotten in my whirlwind of packing. Maybe the safest place would be my planner. Goes with me everywhere so I could tuck them in when I check the mail and the whole thing would go to Chicago. Yup, that's the ticket.

Yeah- I was thinking the planner or your calendar- whatever PC thing you always have.

Let's just hope (fingers crossed, knock on wood, & grab the lucky rabbit's foot) I don't 'misplace' the planner!

 

[raebates]

I'd suggest putting it with your NC registration and hotel reservation that you've printed out. You've printed that out, right?

 

[ChefMary412]

what have you gotten in the past? I am so excited to get something. I have had a card every month since Jan... I didn't realize that the cards were so important. I will start saving them now!!

 

[raebates]

Consultants (as far as I can remember) haven't gotten anything for bringing postcards in the past. And, there's no need to save postcards from before March since only March - June postcards will count.

 

[ChefMary412]

Oh I was under the impression that anyone who brought three in March- June got something. Is it just for directors?

 

[cookingwithdot]

it is for everyone.

 

[pamperedpals]

it is for everyone.

It is only for Consultant's and Senior Consultants according to CC.

 

[cookingwithdot]

ohhh ... sorry!

We had postcards last year....I remember having postcards. With crazy pictures of Jean and Marla on them. That may have been for recruiting though, now that I think about it.

 

[raebates]

I know my director had those. Were you a director last year? I was thinking that's who received those.

 

[NooraK]

I remember there were post cards last year, but I don't think you really had to actually have them. I remember the gift being something with a flashing light, maybe green? Sorry, my pregnant mind isn't retaining much information these days.

 

[ChefBeckyD]

No - the more I think about it, the more I remember they were for recruiting. Every time you recruited someone you got one.

 

[raebates]

Makes sense. I hadn't recruited anyone by that time last year.

 

[cookingwithdot]

I'm sure they must be in one of my piles around here somewhere! So, I should only have one right now, right? For March?

 

[esavvymom]

Yes. It can be March-April-May, or April-May-June postcards. APRIL-MAY are the KEY must-have months.
Which figures, since my APRIL is what is in danger of being bupkis!

 

[wadesgirl]

Last year there wasn't an incentive, you just got a postcard for submitting so much in the month or recruiting. And it was for everyone.

 

[Krista Burson]

Yes. It can be March-April-May, or April-May-June postcards. APRIL-MAY are the KEY must-have months.

Send out a blast email about the great "trifle bowl" sale you have. Order by ____ to get yours at only $29 (plus tax). I did this and sold 6. That's how I got my second show for my HWC apron

I've done that. I have duds for customers. I just get "unsubscribes" instead. wow- I send 2 emails MAX a month and I'm SPAM! :grumpy:

 

[pampchefsarah]

Bobbi, that's my thinking, too. Until, I sent out an e-mail which was basically just a flyer for the Trifle Bowl - and got an online order for 2!

I also started posting my status update on Facebook that I had a goal to sell 10 Trifle Bowls by 4/14 (I "creatively borrowed" the idea from another Cheffer, and changed it a little). EVERY DAY I copied and pasted to a new status, updating how many I had left to reach the goal. By Wednesday night, I had sold SIX just because of my Facebook Status (one person bought two, literally at the last minute). That's 8 Trifle bowls sold in 1 week, where I've not sold that many in the over 2 years I've been in business!

If you want to see the e-mail I sent, give my your addy, and I'll forward it to you. I think I got it from TT, and just added some pictures.

 

[pampered1224]

I wonder what we will get? So far I have March and April and there is no way I will not get May's so...

 

[angel7581]

I am wondering also. I have March and April already. I also have my dream host for my May 8th party, so May is also guaranteed.
