March Madness: All the Fun and Business Events of the Month

In summary, Amy has a busy March with a kick-off show for a new consultant, four demo shows, a home show, and a Strawberry Festival. Next weekend she has a leadership retreat, so she won't be on the site much. After this weekend, her next show is not until March 29th.

You know - when I sit back and look at things logically I have to laugh at myself.
I already own TWO pink HWC aprons...plus 3 denim ones, a red one, a blue one and a red, white & blue one (all PC of course). But dangit, I WANT the new pink HWC apron. Do I need it? No. Do I need the new HWC products? No - but I sure woudl like them...but heck, they only add up to $19 so I can easliy buy them for myself. But here I am busting my butt to get three shows in & donw before the 15th so I can get all this *stuff.*
I am a sucker for stuff.
I work so hard to eanr incentives...often of stuff I don't want or need...but I have this deep-seated NEED to get the incentives - LOL
Dangle that carrot in front of me and I'll work like a dog!

EXACTLY!!! I love being at shows & holding up things I've earned for free, & sharing that with my guests. It gives a good image for PC I think.

I have seven shows this month, possibly eight. I had one last night (March 1) & have the rest on March 5, 9, 11, 17, 25, 31. One of the outside orders from my last Feb. show wants to have a March show, but I haven't gotten ahold of her yet. Hers would have to go on March 22 because that's my last open date left. I'm not doing more than 8 shows a month. Possibly less now b/c I'm 8 weeks PG & they are wiping me out! I'm excited to get the HWC apron! I should also definitely get the mid-season b/c I also have some April shows on the calendar already too!

I'm all about earning the stuff, too. My DH just rolls his eyes when I open the packages and start doing the happy dance. He thinks I have plenty. I think there's no such thing.

My dh and yours would get along great! :p He thinks that I don't need ANYTHING else but I tell him FREE is FREE and I will EARN it so I don't have to BUY it. That usually shuts him up!:D
 
  • #58
I have 4 right now but think I will do the 24 in 24 tonight or tomorrow and see if I can't get a packed calendar

My DH doesn't even blink anymore when the Fedex guy comes. He always says "As long as I didn't pay for it!". I got my new consultant tote (FREE!) yesterday and my kids took turns riding in it! It is HUGE!

Maybe there should be a support group for spouses of PC consultants. They could all sit around and complain about how their kitchens (and, honestly, several other rooms) have been taken over by PC products. :)

Great Idea Rae!:D
 
  • #62
Mine would complain about taxes. He says yeah it's free but we still have to pay taxes on it! I am so glad taxes are over this year, because I literally want to move out during taxes.

And my DH's favorite thing to say every time I get free stuff? "Why don't they just pay you more money instead of sending you more stuff?".....obviously he doesn't get it!
 
  • #64
Explain to him that every free product that you earn could potentially make you more money by showing at shows so you will get money & products!!

I've tried! I've also tried telling him that earning it for free keeps me current, and then I don't have to spend any money upgrading or adding to my kit....but he is a "money in the hand" kinda guy!:rolleyes:
Don't get me wrong - he's pretty supportive...but seems to have this mental block in this area - he thinks I would get paid more if I didn't get free stuff in it's place....I just keep telling him that it's not in place of the money, it's in addition to the money!
 
  • #66
Oh... then tell him that if he doesn't figure it out you have a pair of salad choppers with his name on them, LMAO!!

Congrats on earning the tote! BTW, YOU weren't pulling them around in it were you? I'm sure you're not supposed to be lifting too much....:p
 
  • #68
They just sat in it, no pulling here! I can barely pick up toys off the floor- I would die trying to pull them!

You're talking about the Lorana Bobbit Salad Choppers I'm assuming?!:D

Oh yeah! I have threatened my DH with them a time or two. He feels the need to remind me everyday that I won't make Level 2 this year. I keep telling him that not only am I going to make it but I will bring someone else! He doesn't say as much when I am armed with my salad choppers!
