Just transmitted my show. Those babies are mine, now!
 
As soon as I submit my show I'm in too! Woo hoo I just LOVE FREE!!!
 
I should be getting them soon. I submitted my qualifying show yesterday! Woohoo!!
 
I should get them as well. I have 2 shows that need to close Friday and 3 that should close before the 20th.
 
My DH asked me the other day if we really need a salad spinner. Need? What's need got to do with anything? It's free good stuff.

LOVE that! When its free, it's mine! I'll submit a show tomorrow that will do it for me! YEEEE HAAAAAW! :D :D
 
I've earned it as well. I'm so excited. Just got my HWC items today, now I can look forward to getting the midseason. Woohooo! So when's the next incentive. I'm thinking June (maybe another sell-a-thon) It better not be in July because I'm having surgery and will be out of commission for about 4 weeks.
 
I submitted $1259 on March 27th, so I will be getting mid-season. The order has already been shipped, so the mid-season should be right behind it, don't you think?

He should know better than to ask a question like that by now!
 
I've had 3 shows since Mar. 16 and closing all of them by this weekend. Already over $1300. Can't wait for the salad spinner.

That's right! He's a smart man. He should know by now that if it's PC and it's free, we'll be finding room for it.
 
I submitted my shows last Thursday and still haven't rec'd my products yet.

Just checked and they haven't shipped either. :(
 
I'm impatiently waiting for mine as well... however I've had fun playing with my HWC stuff... but now I'm ready for additional gratification! HA
 
Awww I think Im the only one not getting them. My shows are so puny. And im running out of people. Way to go all of you who did get them though.
 
I am submitting a show on Saturday that will put me over the $1250 mark. Yay...I love earning the free stuff...if its free I'm so determined to get it!

Im there with you as well. I had an awsome beginning of month this month but now nothing... and I can't get any shows for April either :(
 
This is the first time I'm getting a free incentive other than the microfiber dishcloths, so I'm real excited! :D :D:D I couldn't get anything more than one show in Feb. booked for the HWC.:mad: No one else wanted to book in Feb or early March around here because they were afraid there would be a snowstorm. Actually, there was one on the day of the of my March 16 show, so I to trudge around with all my stuff in full winter regalia:eek:
That was cute, because I had to work that day. I usually try to keep my shows to Sat or Sun only. I hate the way that pesky other job interferes with
my life, :mad: but I gotta have it.

I know what you mean! I really wanted to earn every incentive this year, but this one isn't looking so good! I am having $300 shows but they aren't adding up very fast! I know people will want to smack me when I whine about this, but my hosts keep signing up as consultants and taking my bookings! I have/will have 3 hosts sign from shows this month so I am losing 5 bookings to them :(
 
You're right Gillian... I would smack you if you weren't in Alaska and so darn cute and pregnant :)
 
I am glad I have at least those things working in my favor to prevent smacks!!

Nope, don't want to smack you, I can relate! I struggle with that a lot too, at least I use to in the past when I recruited a lot and now I'm starting to recruit more and I totally understand!;)
 
BTW! I did earn my mid season products yesterday, I put in a show that qualified me to earn them! Wahooooo! Yeah! Happpy dance!!!:D

Has anyone received them yet or has anyone checked to see if they've shipped them to the one's that have earned them?

Yes, some of us wish we had your problems...but I'm just getting started so not complaining yet...

My update: I'm at about $957 of the $1250...still have more orders coming in for a show last night...and another 2 shows to hold/close before then...

I'm pretty positive I'll make it!!!!
 
Just earned them! I just submitted a $1500 show!! Yippee!! :D
 
I just submitted the show to bump me over the edge to earn them!

The three this month were all hosts that work full time. They all blew it off when I very first mentioned it, and they were all not sure about signing until after they watched me do my presentation. We started talking about it because they each wanted items in the kit (especially since the mandoline was the host special this month!). They area all starting their kitchens so they wanted the basic items in the kit. I explained that they can purchase the kit, do 4-6 "trial" shows, then quit if it isn't for them.

I do sell the dream, but you have to hook them with the deal!! One woman is a teacher and wants to do a show every weekend to help pay for daycare for her son, one wants to do enough to just stay active for the discount & incentives, and one has a "traveling" husband and wants something to fill her time while he is away (2W on, 2W off).

My directorship should be finalized (the shows on my IPT) tonight/tomorrow and I am so thankful that I have all these recruits to ensure that I don't slip under 5 consultants.
