How long do you wait to call recruit?

I had a customer request info on PC. I sent her a packet yesterday. How long should I wait for her to read eveything and go through it? 2 days a week? I don't want to seem to pushy or eager and call too soon but then at the same time don't want them to lose excitement or interest if I wait to long!

how long would you wait to call to follow up?

Follow up on Potential Recruits

Next time if there's any possible way, ask to meet with her and bring her a packet and visit for 15 minutes. Assure her that you won't take up much of her time.
When I do mail a packet, I follow up in 2-3 days. I would rather go over it with them than have them reading alone and feeling confused or overwhelmed.

I agree, maybe wait 2-3 days until after she's received it, then call. It's still not too late to do a face to face recruiting interview with her. You can show her a list of all the things you've earned for free so far in your bonuses!! You can always invite her as a guest to your cluster meetings. Our cluster does that all the time and I tell potential recruits that it's a great way to see "behind the scenes" and get a good picture of what kind of support she'd get as a consultant. If she's never hosted a show, encourage her to do that. Not only to be able to buy down the cost of her kit if she decides to join, but because it's also a good way to see what the job is like a little more up close. Good luck!!!
