I am looking for hospitality in or around DesPlaines, IL. I signed one recruit last week and will be signing another in a week or so. Both of the ladies will be attending a meeting with my hospitality group this morning. They are both so excited about the business and I don't want them to lose interest because they have to travel 90 minutes to my house to attend sales meetings. My director lives more than five hours away, hence the reason I partake in hospitality myself. I have contacted my Director, but she hasn't gotten back to me with any contacts. I would truly appreciate your help. Thanks.
 
Hi Janice,There are lots of directors around Des Plaines so I'm sure your director will find someone. My meetings are in Orland Park, which is still pretty far. PamperedBecky here might be closer. Hopefully she'll chime in.
 
My meetings are actually in Naperville, so that's not convenient at all. I do know of a director in Elk Grove Village, so that may be closer. If you'd like her info, feel free to PM me. Her meetings are typically the first Monday of the month. Way to go with recruiting!!!:)
