Who May Find This Useful

Super cool when it just happens, huh? :DI had 4 of my direct recruits with potential recruits. 2 potentials have fizzled out I think. One really wants to do it, but her hubby's not on board (and she'd be promoting my 1 SC to TL, so although I'd be super happy to see my SC promote and have the recruit on my team, it doesn't change my title). I'm still crossing my fingers that #4 pulls through before the end of the month and submits a show so that I'd change titles on May 1st!

Thanks Laurie! I'm actually starting to think it's pretty funny! I have 2 more in the works. One who's lining up her shows to sign. Another one who's seriously considering it, wants to talk to her husband & try to make a decision before her show on Friday. Every time I get one that says she's ready to sign, I send her a list of names & ask if she knows any of the other girls! LOL So far, no luck! So I'm still holding out hope that one of my girls will recruit and get me to director. I'd love it if all 7 under me became Sr. Consultants & Team Leaders! :D

Getting those SC's are hard. I was had 14 direct recruits, 1 SC for MONTHS and MONTHS. It was so close, and yet so elusive! lol

Eventually, that second line came in and I slowly started getting others. Some months are tough trying to keep those SC lines active, but you just roll with it.
 
Congrats Becky! Looks like it's time to break out the champagne!!! Whoo Hoo!! :D

That's exactly how it's been for me! I've had a TL/SC (she bounces back and forth) for a year....and EVERY month since last July, I've qualified as a director, except for that 2nd SC line! SO elusive!

And frustratingly painful! lol I remember it so well. :yuck:

At long last, it looks like that promotion is coming Becky. Well deserved and much overdue. Just in time for NC! Yay!!!! We can walk that stage together. :D:thumbup:

Soooo, now I have another question.:D

With the new program, do we still get a call from HO asking us if we want to accept directorship? If so, when would it come? Next month when it's official?
 
So my 2nd girl is signing someone up before the end of the month and so they will be all submitting in may so I will promote june 1st and getting to walk at national conference. I am excited are you going to be doing the same Becky? It kinda sounds like it.

WAHOOOO! Congratulations Christina! I'm working really hard to promote May 1st. I have everything in place - just need everyone to turn in the shows they're doing, so I have 4 lines, and 2 SC lines w/ both submitting!
 
We will be walking together :) awesome and I just signed a lady up today so at the end of this month I will have 10 in my downline I am so excited. YOu keep up the good work Becky it will happen :)
 
Congrats Christina! :DAnd you girls PLEASE laugh with me ... #10 just signed, still don't have the structure for Director! Two more took info about being a consultant at tonight's show AND the host is thinking about signing. You watch, I'm going to be the one with 20 consultants & still no Director structure! LOL
 
LoL Sheila, it will happen I gave my consultants a special just from me and I think that up and going. It is amazing how one jumped on that and 4 days later she signed up a gal and the other gal just accendently got a recruit and called me and she is still in her 30 days and says I don't know if I want to sign her up I don't know what to do lol so I said I will walk you through it.

But you know Sheila least you will have a solid line before they start recruiting I was looking at my numbers and 1/2 of them are within either the 30,60,90 days which kinda shocked me.
 
Me too girl! I only started recruiting in Aug. 3 have finished their 90 days. 3 are still in their 90 days, 4 are in their first 30 days ... but TWO of those are from the last 48 hours. Of the 10, 6 are qualified. :D 1 is close & would have qualified already, but had a death in the family and had to give up a show to a cluster mate to go home for the funeral. 1 has her first show tomorrow. And the 2 brand new ones have their kick off shows coming up on the 24th & the 2nd with other shows on the calendar too. So I have confidence that they will soon qualify as well. :D
 
Oh, with all the 30 day & 90 day lines under 7 of them, I now have a "page 2" of recruits! LOL

If all three do decide to sign, have the two sign under the host. Voila! Instant SC, and you're a Director (well, when the line is active).
 
Trust me, every time I have someone express an interest in signing, I list ALL the girls on my team! If they know ANY of them, I'll encourage them to sign under the one they already know. So far, no luck! They all tell me they don't know any of them. One said she "might" know one, but wasn't positive. When they saw each other in person, they chatted & agreed that they did used to work together, but neither one of them did the whole "hey, I know you!" thing right off the bat, so they were not close friends or anything. But I have hope that my day WILL come! LOL
