I was in shock at first, but it quickly turned to glee!

I'm so happy for her!!! She said it was at $600 on the very first day! I told her she needed to recruit that host and she said she would definitely talk to her about the business opportunity. But it just showed up on CC, so I'm guessing the host said no thanks.

$1,030.96 in Commissionable Sales. What a nice paycheck for my recruit with very little work!

And if you didn't catch it ... that was a CATALOG show! I haven't even had a Catalog Show with sales that high yet!

I'm pretty sure it was just having a host who's good at advertising & follow-through! ;)
 
Wahoooo! Tell her she is getting a cheer all the way from TX! Do ask how the host managed to pick up so many orders!

Laurie, it was only NINE orders! Income Tax Return time?

Congrats to your recruit! I have a catalog show that is already over $800, definitely hoping to break the $1,000 mark.
I truly have to give all the credit to my host. She has been fantastic! We work at the same place so we passed catalogs to our coworkers and have about $450 in sales through them. My host also got orders from ladies in her church and had her mother pass catalogs at her workplace. I think it helps that my host is getting married in a few months. She reminds everyone she needs to earn products for her newly purchased home!

Oh, that's what I'm telling all my hosts right now ... that it's a great time to host because the guests are getting back income tax returns and have extra to spend! LOL 4 of my 6 shows have closed between $1,000 & $1,500 so I guess the power of persuasion is working! ;)
 
Wonderful! Congratulations to you both.
 
That is awesome. I need to start using the tax return time!
 
That's so awesome that her host did so well! Is your recruit in her first 30 or 90?

I haven't had one decent catalog show since I first started. My highest Catalog show was probably about $300.

She's in month 5 I think. Still fairly new, but a few shows under her belt already. ;)
 
Way To Go!!!
 
That is just fabulous! I need to find someone like that to do a catalog show for me.
