Maximizing Conference Benefits: Tips for Directors and Consultants

[lovenpc]

This is the first year I will be having more than 1 of my team members at conference. So my question is if you are a director, do you give team anything at conference or as a consultant do you get anything from your director (like a "welcome package" etc)

Thanks for your help

Yes, my director gives us a notebook and a little bag of stuff (gum, pencil, etc). Do a search on here for Conference Notebook and you'll find some great resources.

My Director has always had a goody bag for us when we arrive with a notebook, pen, tissues, gum, highlighter, snack bars, water, etc. She also has a challenge every June for us...based on our June sales we get cash at Conference. Here is the break down...

If you hold & submit $750 in June commissionable sales, you’ll receive $20 from me in Chicago.
If you hold & submit $1000 in June commissionable sales, you’ll receive $30 from me in Chicago.
If you hold & submit $1500 in June commissionable sales, you’ll receive $45 from me in Chicago!
If you hold & submit $2000 in June commissionable sales, you’ll receive $60 from me in Chicago!!
If you hold & submit $2500 in June commissionable sales, you’ll receive $75 from me in Chicago!!!
If you hold & submit $3000 in June commissionable sales, you’ll receive $90 from me in Chicago!!!!
If you hold & submit $6000 in June commissionable sales, you’ll receive $180 from me in Chicago..... PLUS, I’LL PAY FOR YOUR HOTEL ROOM TOO!!! (in a conference hotel with four people in a room)

My Director has given us little goodies in the past, but nothing huge. One year, she took us out to dinner on the night before conference started, but it's usually a bag of little useful things: Shout wipes, gum, a cool pen, a highlighter, chocolate bar, etc.

The only thing my AD has ever given us is one of those 70pg, once subject spiral bound notebooks.
I made a big notebook for my team last year with dividers and outlines and scavenger hunts, etc. You can find it on here if yuou search thru last June probably. I included 2 pens and a highlighter as well...and envelope abnd chart to keep track of expenses and receipts etc. I also got them each a pink feather boa and a clapper.
This year, so far I have gotten them each a clapper and am making less-enormous notebooks so they're easier to carry.

My Director always give us notebook, pen, drink mixes, gum, postcards and stamps. She, I must say is simply THE BEST. She also buys us dinner 1 night and at our Banquet she decorates our table and sets out a special gift[each different and with lots of thought as to our personality] for each one of us.
