I was just on the PC website and was wondering if they changed something about online ordering. Used to be I was directed to a Director's website to order directly from her. Now I'm just getting the online catalog, but no personal websites. I guess I'm a little concerned because I'm about to qualify my 5th consultant and become a director. I really liked it when people were routed to a personal website...I want this perk too! Anyone noticed this same thing, or am I missing something?
 
The option of entering your zip code to find an area director did change as of Dec. 4th. Now that screen pops up AFTER the customer has entered their order information. It's to fairly distribute leads because sometimes there were customers who logged on to maybe JUST look at the catalog and it didn't result in an order for that director, therefore taking up one of his/her "chances" in the rotation. I hope that makes sense!:D

But, definitely promote ASAP because that's just ONE of the awesome perks!! Good for you for your 5th consultant qualifying!! Congrats!!:D

That makes sense--thanks for explaining. I figured directors were still getting the leads. Glad to know they're trying to make it a little more fair.

Another question--how many leads a month does the website generate for you?
 
Leads will vary from month to month. I got 2 HO recruit leads in November, both signed....1 recruit lead in Dec that I am working with.

I have had 4 HO customer leads that purchased item so far, I promoted on Oct 10th, so in less than 2 months, things have really paid off!

Promote NOW!! Good Luck!
 
woohoo, I am loving this new lead system! Last month I had over $400 in outside orders--which is great, but they were all around $25!!!! Yesterday, got an order for $270!!!!! I was wondering when my turn would be!!! :)))
 
WOW!! I am close to promoting as well - these perks are lookin pretty dad gum nice to me :D
