Unfortunately, no trip yet for me. However, that will change this year. In my enewsletter I plan to go over stats of commission and products earned last year as soon as I get my 1099 - maybe even talk about tax benefits, too.

Good idea!! People have to see things to be convinced.
 
I have earned the level 1 trip every year since starting my business - except one year (the year I promoted) - I earned level 2 that year. DH didn't say anything last year because he wasn't interested in the destinations (we had been to both San Francisco many times and to Atlantis) but this year he was upset that I missed the cruise - he didn't start saying anything until like November though.

I WILL earn at LEAST level 2 this year!!!
 
I did earn Level 1 this year and last. I just don't see that as a trip.

Well, you're right. Until last year you could take a hotel certificate for 2 nights at level one so we would go somewhere on PC. I think that's why I still call it a trip. lol
 
Ahhh....it does go into what I earned though.
