This may be a silly question, but I'm asking anyway! I am placing a supply order, and for the 1st time I noticed it has "Quick Start Box" with $0 amount. I know what a quick start box is, but I didn't think you could order one until you were a director. Does anyone know about this and if so give me the scoop! Thanks!
 
It is the paperwork that comes in the kit that you can give to someone to get started planning then they just have to wait for their products. It can only be ordered by directors and above.

I guess my question is why does it appear that I can order a quick start box in PPP? I am not a director...just curious!
 
Because there's no special product list for Directors and above. If you order it, they won't ship it to you.
 
I tried to order it once not knowing... figuring I could just be prepared. They just never sent it to me. To my understanding, directors and above can order it and tehn they have a certain amount of days to use it before they have to pay. I could be completely wrong though! LOL :)
 
Directors can have up to 5 at a time, and must use them by the middle of the last month of the selling season. If they are not used by that time, they must pay $35 each. (That may go up for the current season, since the catalogs have gone up.)
 
We can order up to 5 of them and they can be used by ANYONE (so if you have a director near by she can sign one over to you for your recruit - even if she is not in your cluster). If we have any left at the end of a season (they give us a date) we have to pay $35 for them.

Ok, thanks for clarifying. I've never noticed it in PPP before as I usually have my list ready and don't scroll the supply in PPP. Thanks!
