Hi all. I finally got my first recruit! No horn tooting, this is one God truly dropped in my lap. She was a Consultant a couple of years ago, but did not have a good director, and didn't receive alot of training. While my Director, AD, and I will provide a ton of support, we're all in Virginia, and she is in Pacifica, CA. Does anyone know of an outstanding cluster in the area which would be willing to offer hospitality?

Yes, I called HO today, but they provided the name of someone who lives about an hour away, including traffic and bridges. We'd really prefer someone on the Peninsula, if at all possible.

If you have any suggestions, pm me!
 
Jodie Williams is very inspirational but I think she's in the Fairfield area, which is probably too far away.

I am trying to remember -- I thought I had the name once of someone in the San Jose area but I'm drawing a blank. There must be someone in Barb Duke's downline that is on the Peninsula....

Thanks Joy. Yeah, if there's no one on the Peninsula, I'd rather the South Bay then the East Bay, though San Jose might be a little far.

Let me know if the blanks fill in!
 
Sounds like you ought to be training her to become a director! Lots of prospects in her area!

I'm on the Peninsula and when I went to the PC website looking for a consultant, the closest one they offered was on the East Bay, 50 miles away and across toll bridges. I'm signing up under someone out of the area but would like to join a cluster nearby. Are there really none on the Peninsula?

Looks like you and my recruit can get your own meetings going - and take advantage of the open market!!

Where on the Peninsula are you? I grew up in Pacifica, so I know it pretty well. Wish I had heard of The Pampered Chef while I was living out there!!
 
Sarah, I'm sending you a private message to contact your recruit! :)
