Can someone refresh my memory please! What does a consultant need to qualify? I've tried looking up the info but I've had a rough weekend(my grandmother had a heart attack Friday so I've been kinda scatterbrained). WHat does a consultant get when she/he qualifies? Any P.C. dollars? I have a friend who is thinking of joining my team and I'm drawing a blank at the moment.
 
They need either 4 shows or $1250 in sales. If they do that in the first 90 days they get PC bucks, if it is in the first 30 days those are about doubled. If she signed right now she would also get the app plates and caddy, and you would get $100.

If they signed between September 17 and today.
 
So today is the last day that a consultant can sign up and get the Appetizer Plates and Caddy Set if she qualifies by the end of November?
 
Yep.rassafrackin minimums
 
I signed up around Sept. 12, but my kit & etc. did not come until after the 17th; my first show was scheduled for Sept. 27.

They list my 30-day anniversary as Oct. 22 - will I get that bonus appetizer plates & caddy for qualifying by Nov? I guess I am not clear on if it is based on my application date or on when they consider me a consultant... anyone have any input?

If you qualify by 10/31, you will get the SS 8" saute pan. You should've also gotten the 29 minutes cookbook with your kit. I signed the same day you did, that's what I got for qualifying.

Because of the time it takes to get your kit they give you extra days for your 30/90 day qualifying period. You are a "Consultant" from the time you sign up, however you are not "qualified" until either the 4 shows or $1250 in sales are submitted.

Congratulations to you and good luck with your business
