Just Need to Vent - Consultant Care!

[pchefsharron]

I tend to agree with you about the website thing. I think if we are subscribing, we should be able to advertise it anyway we want. If people are choosing to advertise on Yahoo, they are obviously putting work into that, they should be able to reap the benefits. If others are choosing NOT to advertise that way, it's on them. Either way, PC gets the sales in the end.

Ok, I've had the website for awhile now and not much success but realize NEW things take time up here to catch on. I agree with Home Office about the NOT advertising on Yahoo etc.... Sure I'd like to do that but it does take away the personal touch of having a consultant etc... and for those who are just starting out or simply can't afford it it isn't fair. With being able to order online from someone not even associated to you at all takes away the personal touch we enjoy with our business.

Wanting to sellHi! Thanks for replying. My hubby did talk to 2 diff recruiters with me. The first one wasnt getting back in touch with me soon enough, but she had a day job too. We actually had a meeting and he went with me. I met her at the Stark County Fair last year and i recently remembered I was entered in a drawling and never got my gift worth $30. I won. I'll have to call her. I am from Massillon.

Misleading website namesOne day while googling I found one persons website that was .biz/theonlinecatalog or something like that. Pretty shrewd of her, but also misleading. Having a website address like that completely overrides the whole leads system, of which I'm not a part of yet. PC is a well known and well respected company and I know for a FACT that there are people who have signed up strictly to do internet sales. Can they get a lot of sales? Heck yes! Have a website address like "theonlinecatalog" and a ton of people using a search engine will end up there! It just doesn't seem fair. That being said, you can earn a trip somewhere around 65000 points right? Well, if I'm getting 30,000 in sales from my website...then I'll gladly pay for my own trip, because that is money for next to nothing!

I'm 6 months pregnant and for the past 4 months I haven't had one host not offer to bring my crate in for me. I will ask them when I leave if they have a husband or older son who can carry it out for me. Otherwise it is not a good idea for me to carry anything so heavy out being so pregnant.

As the consultant I wouldn't expect any help hauling my products to the host's house. Plus, if they dropped it, then I wouldn't want them to feel guilty.

If I had an offer, I probably would accept the help.

However, if I was pregnant, I might be bold enough to ask for assistance or give the host a head's up when the party is booked.

UpsetI think you carry an awful lot to shows. I have 3 luggage from PC and that's it! One trip and I am done!

I don't expect anyone to help me.

Personally, I wouldn't be upset. But know, most do offer to help.

Hmmm. Do you really find it neccessary to carry all that to your shows? I used to carry a alot more than I do but found that people really did not look at them. They spend there time looking in the catalogs, eating , visiting and ordering. I take my big show to go tote, my briefcase , my turn around tote, and carry my stone. When you take all that stuff you spend alot of time loading and unloading , packing and repacking. I try to get in and out of my shows in 2.5hrs. Time is money

lol!! I think Julie and I both posted on the wrong thread. It was supposed to go to the thread about the show to go. Oh well.
