My consultant agreement is finally submitted and now I'm just waiting on my stuff! I couldn't believe it when my son broke that window the other day. I was so :mad: . The first thought that came to mind was "Oh no, there goes my PC money!!" :( So, how long am going to be waiting?!?!?
 
Congratulations!! You are so going to enjoy yourself. Your kit will probably take a week or so, they are pretty quick about shippping, although I think it depends on which month is your super starter month, if you picked August, they will ship it right away, if you picked September, I think they wait till closer to the end of the month to ship.

In the meantime, open up a bank account especially for PC, then through the website apply for your PC debit card. The PC debit card is used in Pampered Partner for paying for shows and your supply orders, that way PC just takes the money out of your account automatically. This account is where you get paid too!!

Good luck!
 
Hey Congrats!! We'll have to keep in touch! We don't live that far apart and i also just started (NO kit yet. darn I wanna play!! :D ) I have however started telling ppl what I'm doing and so far have some "reservations" for 2 shows and my bank wants some books! So yipee!! I know you'll do great!! Its fun to be excited about something and this board makes it very easy to establish some great roots to get our buisness growing!! :p

Definately get on the phone and try to get some shows booked while you are waiting for your kit. I've posted a couple of attachments from this website that may help. You may already have them. Make sure to overbook your first super starter month so you can get the recruiting specials and SS kit 1. I didn't do that my first month and I missed out on getting all the cookware free because I had 2 people cancel shows last minute. I was very dissappointed. Now I know better. Let us know how it goes.

Still so excited!I've got 8 show booked so far. I just couldn't believe that I have that many booked already. I can't wait to get my kit in. I've already bought everything I need to buy. I have a friend that used to sell PC and she gave me a ton of stuff, so I'm just waiting on catalogs and products so that I can put together my Host Packets. I'm so excited!!!

Business CardsI went ahead and ordered a few business cards. Vista Print has some free designs that are nice and the shipping is all you pay for. I paid less than $10 for 250 cards. When I get my site up and running I will order some more.
