Three of you asked to see the e-mail & I forwarded it. For the rest, I sent out an e-mail detailing what it takes to promote, talked about Home Office Leads & then showed the difference in my pay for the last 6 months ... what I would have made as a Consultant with $15,000 in Career Sales & then what I did make with HO Leads & Director overrides. I did it through iContact so I could track who opened it.

I figured I'd give an update. 22 of the 39 opened it & two have asked for help in building their teams & promoting! One says she has someone who's wanting to sign on the 15th (Military Payday). I have the first call at 8PM tonight (3.5 hours from now) and just sent an e-mail to the 2nd one to see if she wants 9PM.

I'd have loved to see 30 of them request help, but I'm happy with two! :D Oh, they would both be 2nd line Directors which is what I'll need in the next few months to promote to SD. I'm already looking at having 2 in my 1st line promote on April 1st (if not before) and another one who's super close to promoting under the revised career plan. So I really expect to have 3 1st line directors by summer. If I can get these two 2nd line consultant's teams growing over the next few months, I'm hoping I can see one or both of them promote to Director by summer too! :D

Just sent it to you Julia!
 
I would love a copy as well Shelia! Thank you so much for being willing to share with everyone all the time. Ive noticed its a habit of yours while reading through all of the posts. Im a newly promoted Director and was thinking of doing the something similar. I seem to have a large variety of ladies on my Team and would love to inspire some of them with $$ signs. I also have a new girl in Misawa, Japan. Is that near you?

Hello Sheila,

I would love to see the e-mail as well. I have been "out of the loop" since Oct. with a broken elbow and really need to kick it into high gear. I also have a goal of being a Senior Director by Conference and GOLD Level. Thanks for being willing to share!

I just sent it to you. But it's from Nov 2010, so it's the OLD CAREER PLAN! Don't copy, paste & send to your team!!! You'll need to make the appropriate changes to reflect the current Career Plan that took effect March 1, 2011. ;)

I just forwarded it to you too Beckie. Again, it's from Nov '10, so you can't just copy & paste as it has the OLD Career Plan info not the current Career Plan info. ;)
