and I was taking a little break from creating "atmosphere" for the morning...and I JUST got a new lead. Someone interested in purchasing product. How much you want to bet they opened a present and are now wanting to return it???
 
Let's hope not!Maybe they opened a present and decided they need the whole line and that the best way is by signing as a consultant! ;)
 
I had an HO Lead at 12:01am on New Year's Day who wanted info on "Starting her own business"....she was drunk.P.S. Why am I on at 7:40am on Christmas morning? No more little ones in the house...the 20 year old who is back from college should be up by noon (hopefully) and my dh is sick and trying to sleep it off. I LOVE IT!! Such a nice quiet morning with my coffee and my computer! Hey, to each his own! It will be PLENTY busy here later this afternoon!!!Merry Christmas!!!!!
 
Did you make her sign before she sobered up??? LOL!


Becky, maybe they received Christmas money and they want to spend it on the best present you can receive!!:D
 
Hi there! First of all, Merry Christmas! I'm glad you took a break to check in on your business, even on a holiday. That's dedication! And congratulations on getting a new lead, especially at such a late hour. You never know when someone might be browsing for some last-minute gifts or looking to return a present they received. Either way, it's a great opportunity for you to showcase our amazing products and help them find the perfect gift or replacement. Keep up the great work and enjoy the rest of your Christmas!
