I just called a recruit lead (past host) and the line went dead. So I called again, this time it went to straight to VM - "Hi, you have reached xxxxxx xxxxxx, Ind Consultant with The Pampered CHef". :bugeye::bugeye:
My heart sank to the floor. I left her a great message of how happy I was that she started her business, and that if she had any questions she could always call me even though she decided to sign with someone else and wished her much success.
Now, I did NOT drop the ball with this lady. What really ticks me off, is that I really spent a lot of time with her, ideas of where to get bookings/leads etc. Explaining kits and commission structure - where to find her first recruit leads....
And if that is NOT enough, this show cost me $$$$. The past host's credit card was declined 3 times and she would never call me back. Rather than my host (potential recruit) lose some of her benefits, I paid with my TPC debit card and requested that the products be shipped directly to me (they weren't - working that out with HO).
It is what it is, but man does it suck!! lesson learned - being too nice will really bite you in the butt!:grumpy:
