Well, I thought that this month was going to be a bust...I only had 4 shows scheduled (and it was ok with me, we are doing a total kitchen remodel). But what happened really got me excited and I wanted to share...I ended up with all 4 holding (that's nice), 1 was over $1000 and one was $1600 (of course one was $600 and had to mess up my $1000 show average for the year), one is still left to hold tonight.I signed 1 and one of my team signed 1 (her first), and I have a full schedule for next month (8) and only have 2 more spots for June.I got a $2050 commission check last month and should end up with around $1600 this month. I know that is not a lot for most of you, but with 6 new team members this year I am happy with the money considering all the training I have been doing. What is especially nice is the security the income brings. I can pay the house payment, car payment, electric and insurance bills with my check. Not that I need to, but if I had to I could...ah....it feels good....No Excellence Awards or Incentive Trip this year, but the peace that this brings is priceless! Thanks for letting me share :blushing:
