I have one recruit who qualified in Nov., but had no sales in December and just called me to do a show for her next week. I explained she will go inactive if she doesn't have $200 in sales this month. She doesn't care because she is just too busy and stressed out to think about PC right now. She will be busy through March. I thought maybe she should call HO for a leave. Is that for 90 days? How does it work. If she didn't have sales for 2 months and then asks for the leave, will they go back to the first month she didn't have sales so she will only get February? Does this make sense? Can someone help me? Thanks!
Melissa - I am sorry to hear you will go inactive. Many areas are being hard hit by the economy right now. It has been tough in Indiana. I beleive they said on the news the other day we are the worst state for people moving away. We lose many of our college graduates because there are no jobs for them. All of the manufacturing is going away. That is why I mentioned on another thread that I hope PC is purchasing the new aluminum pans from an American Co. There is a co. in Fort Wayne that makes them. I have had mine for 20 years.
Best of luck to you.
