There is widespread concern among consultants about the lack of leads from Career Builder, with many reporting no activity or interest. Some individuals noted receiving leads, but they often did not convert into sales after potential customers learned about the $155 kit cost. Discussions revealed that leads from Career Builder were distinguishable by a different email format. Despite the overall scarcity of leads, a few consultants shared success stories of home office orders, with some noting particularly low-value orders, which sparked lighthearted conversation. There were also queries regarding the frequency of Career Builder ad postings and issues with canceled orders, with some consultants discussing strategies to manage cancellations effectively. Overall, the thread reflects a mix of frustration over lead generation and amusement at unusual order situations.

Anyone received any yet? I'm shocked that I haven't seen any come through.
 
Me too! I've gotten zilch.:(:(
 
I haven't gotten any either. :cry:
 
nothing. :(I even put a link to the careerbuilder ad in my monthly newsletter.

nothing here
 
Wow, that's AMAZING to me that nobody has heard a peep. I guess we are just a small fraction of directors across the country.
 
I've gotten three Career Builder leads so far - all three changed their minds as soon as they realized the kit was $155

Good to know there are some leads being generated! (Sorry to hear they aren't following thru)

When you got the leads, did it tell you that they were from Careerbuilder or did you find that out when you spoke with them?

Yep - the email that came from HO was different than the typical HO lead emails.
 
NJ is DRY- too
 
My director got one in Boise, ID. Not sure what happened.
 
Nothing here.... :(
 
Nope, nada, zilch.
Careerbuilder wasn't close to me and I can't find Everyday Food at any of my local stores. I was hoping it was helping some of you more city consultants )
 
nothing here....and I'm in Houston.....
 
My director got one today--the first I've heard here in Louisville-she's pretty sure the gal is going to sign! I told her I was jealous!--Lisa
 
Nothing here in upstate NY.
I wonder how ofter they are posting the ad? I know many companies re post so that people see it more often.
 
Nothing here in Austin, either.
 
Nothing here. I did get my first home office order though since promoting this month! An order for $14.50. WOO HOO! (I am laughing but really AM greatful!)
 
Nothing here either...
 
Nothing here in Wyoming...big surprise! ;)

These will really start to add up. I have about $300.00 in HO lead orders this month.
 
quick question...
I got an online activity report today for an individual order cancelled from my PWS
I don't recognize the name and I didn't get a similar one when she ordered. Anyone else?
The sales are in RED. I will call HO Monday, it was just weird, like the anti-lead

I got a record HO lead order last week!!! BUT it was a record low! Someone ordered a $1.50 item off the outlet! Can you believe that?! Crazy that she paid $6.25 shipping for a $1.50 item. That just made me laugh. I bet no other order will beat that record low.

That is too funny! I guess it would be comparable to finding 0.30 cents on the ground though...free money. :D

I can beat that! I once got a HO lead order for a citris peeler. Yes she paid over $7 for a $0.75 item.:bugeye::rolleyes:
 
About the canceled PWS order, this happens when the order is canceled. One of my consultants had a guest from a show place the order from TPC's website. It was assigned to a diretor. My consultant was able to call HO and have the order canceled so she could add it to her host's show.

I have also canceled online orders from my website so I can add them to the show. You need to do it within 12 hours (or so). If it has not shipped when you call, you can cancel it.
