Who May Find This Useful

Participants within the consultant community who are interested in sharing and receiving updates about the Canadian conference and its offerings may find this thread useful.

that's so cool, it's such a "small" world!
 
National Conference was amazing!!!
I got to walk the stage as a new director, it was my first time at conference. The new catalog is beautiful, the new specials are out of this world!!

I went with my director and my future director and her first recruit. Four generations. The hotel was great but they need new sofa beds( I had springs in places that there should not be springs)

The workshops were amazing but the most learning and best advice was talking with all the other consultants, directors, advanced, senior, and executive. My brain is totally on overload. Going to each other's rooms and just sharing our experiences. To know that everyone in this business has their ups and downs like we all do was to say the least comforting.

You really get to see the big picture of what this business is all about. There is such an energy there, everyone wants each other to succeed.

I plan on attending leadership, new director academy and nat'l conference next year.

I want to walk that stage as an advanced director.

Pat Pearson was the guest speaker and she affected everyone.

She talked about the P.O.P. theory

To have great success in this business you need a great product ( We have that)
You need a great opportunity to offer to other ( we so have that)
You need to change your psychology ( this is where most of us block ourselves)
I can type more about her later, I took a lot of notes.

an unforgettable experience. Off to spend time with my four kids....
 
Hi Everyone,

I attended conference. Wow, what a wealth of information. If you were unable to attend, I'm sorry you missed it.....but work towards it next year. Join conference club so that a little bit gets taken off of your cheque and then before you know it the conference fee is paid for. I didn't do this but will definitely consider it for next year.

This was my first time attending, and it will definitely be a repeat next year :)

Lots of great things.....new products and discontinued products. We were fortunate here in Canada to avoid increases in pricing...in fact some of our products actually decreased....ex: The Ultimate Mandoline is now $69.50.

The Consultant News has a lot of what was covered yesterday. Great recruiting incentives.....new bags for travelling to shows. The promotion is called "It's All In The Bag". One item is a wonderful knife case that has spaces with a strap for each of your knives. Great idea! It zips closed and folds up so you can carry them safely or display them nicely. You can earn the new bags with points. Hold and submit a show between Aug 1 & Sept 31 with a minimum of $500 in comm. sales and you'll earn 100 points. The points are not necessarily for bags, you can use them towards items such as the trifle bowl, a piece of stoneware, etc.

On the recruiting front....new consultants who sign and qualify by Sept 31 (within their first 30 days) will receive a 50% rebate on the New Consultant Kit they purchased.

The workshops were wonderful. Lots of great information on host coaching, phone courage, etc.

The bottom line.....go back to your binder. Get "Back to Basics" to keep forging ahead.

I'll post more as it comes to me.

Hope everyone had a great weekend! We missed you if you were unable to come :(

Cheers,

Amanda
 
It's finally up for me :) Yippee samples have been ordered!
 
I knew it would come up as soon as I left the house :)

I'm assuming pkg B is the 2 shows, C is the $2000 & so on.
I'm off to order samples :)
 
Crys Hall -- what did you order??
 
Hey I noticed someone asked who won the shopping spree.

I'm not sure of one girls name but the other was someone on my team !!! I didn't go on Friday as I had to work so I missed out on the fun :(
 
no one really talked about the shopping spree that i heard. The one girl who wasnew that won...had the funniest look on her face like she had no idea what was going on. the other lady ( a seasoned consultant) was running onstage and screaming... it was fun!!!

Just getting back and it's 1:40am and I'm working in the morning but NC was alot of fun. Got the copy of August News Letter. Have a look to see if it's on CC tomorrow. You'll get all the details on the promos. They are GRRrrrreat !!!! Go for it !!! ... and YES we are getting the wine glasses!! We are also getting the oven pad that's already in the US. NO PRICE INCREASE !!!!!!! a few products went down - color coated tomato knife to $17, Color coated santoku $20.00, Mandoline $69.xx, and another one I can't remember. Shopping spree: the lady who won was in her first 90 days I was happy for her. She brough 5 of her friends to cheer her on. She had 30sec to fill baxes. She's not sure what she got as it was being shipped but she knows she received a 5pc. and 7pc. set of pot but she was not sure if it was the SS or the non-stick. They had pizza with Janice Gerol and were driven in a limo !!! The hotel was great and the food, out of this world !!! Plenty of draws but I was not lucky this year !!!!

Have to go to bed...hope this is enough for tonight !!!

I knew you would love it Gilles!!! Can't wait to see you all at our PC auction!! I really want to go next year, will have to make sure I'm going!
Talk to you soon!
 
Re: the shopping spree.....The seasoned consultant who was screaming it was fun.......was the lady on my team....HAHAHAHA. She's a hoot!
 
Hey gang, I'm back and had a great time too! Got to meet a couple Cheffers, which was great. I did stay an extra day and spent today with my DD. Got some work to do, so I don't have much time to spend here right now, but just wanted to check in.

Glad that those who attended had a good time. The new products are great! Love the holiday stuff and the knife block! Excited about the show-to-go promo too and the CASH we can earn!!

I'll check in later....sorry you guys had to hang on for so long to find out the news! ;)
