I don't think I can work it out this year.
 
Congratulations!! :thumbup: :D
 
Congratulations!!!
 
Congratulations!
 
Kudo for you Lacy! Wait til you get the 1% commission overide in your pay check.
 
Way to go Lacy! Congrats!

If she qualifies before the end of the year she'll knock 4000 points off what you need for the cruise because you need less as a FD!

Are you going to make it?! I would love to cruise with you if my recruit qualifies and I manage to have a 6K November!

Keep up the good work!
 
great job lacy! i've learned so much from you this year...thrilled to see you moving towards directorship...you're going to be an awesome director!

it is on you and your recruit - so long as you have $1250 yourself
 
I cant wait to see my first override pay!! I promoted to FD last month and signed my 3rd active recruit yesterday! I have an inactive recruit in La, but 3 active ones now!! 2 more qualified by Dec 31st -- that's my goal!! Director by Jan 1, 2008!!

I really want the cruise but I think its a little far fetched at this point. I've got 25K points. Atleast I got level one. That makes conference a little more reachable for next year.

BTW, if I promoted last month, will I still have the chance to walk across stage at conference if I don't go to leadership? I'm really curious about this....

I just recalculated my points including my 3 recruits and I have 30,598 points. That's almost double what I did last year. Not too shabby, if I should say so myself! ;)

Unfortunately, No! You only get one time to walk the stage as a new director and it is leadership that you promoted before and it is only leadership you can walk as a new director:( :cry: I know, it's the pitts! I would work really hard to see about getting to leadership, because walking as a new director is a great experience and you definetley want to experience it!
Good luck and congratulations on promoting!;) :) :thumbup: :balloon:

Wahoooooo! Lacy! Great job:sing: :D
I just signed #3 on Friday. It feels weird starting all over again, after being a director in the past and then not really recruiting in the last few years! But I'm going for it again! I sold almost 6000.00 last month and already have 1200.00 in for November with 1500.00 going in this week and 6 more kitchen shows this month and 3 catalog shows going on! I am finally back in the saddle again!:sing: :thumbup: :D

No walking stage for FD - only Director promotions and above.

YOU CAN AND WILL DO IT!! We have to meet in person!! Although if you look up the cruise, it shows that there will be 2 port of calls. One in Miami and one in Port Canaveral.
I live really close to Pt Canaveral so I'll be going on that boat if there are enough of us to go on 2 boats.

I would love to meet you Kristi! Hmmm, will they assign us which port or will we get to choose I wonder? We'd probably go for whichever is the shorter plane ride; dh is nervous about flying!

That really stinks!!!! :cry: :grumpy: :cry: I really cant afford to go to leadership. We've had too many things come up, including my daughter breaking her arm. Cincinati is just too expensive for me right now....




BTW, Is that you and Jean Jonas in your avatar? WOW!
 
Actually, I had heard that if you cannot attend the conference (Leadership or NC) immediately following your promotion, you can walk at the next. I don't remember where I heard that or how true it is, though... so you may want to verify it with your upline or HO.
 
That is true. You can call HO and tell them you cannot attend LC and you would prefer to walk at NC!!! Who wouldn't with that huge crowd? A local Director I personally know, did it. Just call HO and ask. :D

Congrats!
 
Thanks, Ann & Cassie!! I'll be calling HO in the morning!! YEA!! I'm so excited!!!!
