Okay ladies, I am kinda back. I have been super busy this month w/ PC and my sis got married last week in Maui (thank God for free WiFi). I am teaching again, life isn't stopping even for a moment.I had a goal last month of $4000 in sales, & I ended the month w/ my highest ever $5020. My possible doesn't want to do it right now. One of my girls reactivated and the other went inactive. I am trying to justify buying airfare to cincinatti, but not sure I will have the # of recruits.I am trying to catch up on posts to see where everyone else is at.New Goal is to hold 50 shows before the end of the year! I know I can, I know I can. The more people I am in front of the more I will recruit!!
 
Go Amanda! Go Amanda! Go Amanda!
 
I am on my way to director...just signed my 2nd, have an interview tonight, taking a possible with me to our cluster meeting on Tues., working with an Oct. host, and have another waiting for payday next week (I also have a few potentials I am working with). My goal is directorship by Nov. 30th.

I have 3 catalog shows & 4 cooking shows for Oct. I only have 3 cooking shows so far for Nov plus my Christmas Open House. And nothing yet for December. Better get booking!

As far as an office, I don't have one yet. I have my office in about 4 different places in the house. However, as soon as we are finished with our oldest's room addition we are adding my office. I am so excited!
 
Nice of you to join us Ann:)
Wow, Amanda you had a fantastic month! Hope you had a great time in Maui!
Good luck with all your hopefuls Stacy!

My Sept ended with ~$3600. Oct is a little slower; several people that were *going* to host are putting it off. So I have 3 cooking shows, 4 catalog shows, and 2 Sept shows closing. My first recruit has 2 shows this month; & I'm still working with 3 others. Now to fnd the next potentials....
 
My first recruit signs today!!!!!!!!
 
AHHH! The website is not working! She can't sign on! HO said to try again in a couple hours... Bummer. We both had time now.
 
Oh man Brandi, that stinks! I hope it is back up soon!

Congrats by the way!!!:thumbup:
 
woo-hoo Brandi:balloon: :sing: Was she able to sign?
 
Still not able. I will give you updates. Hopefully all is well, we have ourt first training meeting tonight! Thanks ladies!
 
How is everyone doing? Do we see offices coming clean???
 
Way to go Brandi~my October buddy!!!!
 
My office still looks horrible!! Congrats going out to you who have signed people!!I have a potential kitnapper reactivating I am taking her catalogs and order forms tomorrow and the new P3 program.I bought my airfare to Cinc. I did it for 2 reasons, it's non refundable so I have to go. I am hoping this will motivate me to promote & 2 someone needs to kick my tail end in high gear, maybe the airfare will do it. I don't want to be out $239.October is going to be around $2000, but November has to be $6000 (NO MATTER WHAT) Sorry had to quote BelindaI miss chatting w/ you ladies, I have to take more time out to check in w/ you guys!!
 
Um, yeah, my office still looks horrible too! I've got to get it done this week!
My Oct will end around 3K I think. I've got 6 shows booked right now for Nov; want about 4 more. I want the top sellathon & the cruise is in my sights....
one of my potentials is getting married this weekend, so hopefully soon she'll be ready to give it a try. Really wanted to sign someone under the most recent promo & didn't; but still trying to help qualify my first recruit & I'll get the panorama points.
Glad you bumped this Brandi~I was wanting to check in with you all:D
 
Don't forget that Leadership registration opens today! 11 am central time...
 
I haven't posted here on this thread for a long time but thoght I would let you all know that I signed a recruit last night so that makes two total!

So now I just gotta get him qualified so I can get that extra$$!
 
Three more to go till I can be DIRECTOR!!!:thumbup:
 
Way to go Ellen!!!
 
I got an email last night, first recruit signed!!! :sing: :D :eek:
 
Congratulations!!!!!!!!!!!
 
Yahoo! Way to go Cassandra!!!
 
My desk is still a mess!! I can't seem to get it to stay clean for more than a few minutes! It doesn't help that my 17 month old likes to "reorganize" for me everyday. :D So now that my tax season is finally over (!) I have some more time that I can work on the desk and have it done by Friday. That is the goal, and I'm gonna keep it this time!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
Congrats Ellen & Cassie:D
 
Yeah Ellen and Cassandra! See I knew we all haven't forgotten each other... we just haven't been writing on here every day because we are out looking for team members!!! Hope everything is still going well for everyone. We haven't heard from Kathy in awhile! Kathy where are you!?

As for October I set a small goal... I will get 2500$ in sales so that I can meet my $15000 career sales. Notice I said "WILL GET". I am spending the rest of my time building a team and gathering bookings for the next couple of months.

My previous potential recruit isn't signed on yet... just a small wrinkle that will be ironed out soon. She is coming wth me to my show on Friday to help out. She is still intent on signing. Soon!
 
Hey! How's everyone doing this week?!

I will be a FD on Thursday! My host that closed her show last night said, 'I can use my fpv toward the kit right?' It caught me so off guard & I'm so excited!
 
Wow Lacy good for you! I met someone at a show last week and she plans to sign on Saturday! I imagine she will be joining us on here soon!
 
Great Brandi! Let us know how it goes!
where's everyone else.........?:confused:
 
well, I have 1 recruit who is submitting shows 3&4 today..........another who has the shows completed, but "doesn't have time to submit them". So, if she finds the time TODAY, that will be my 4th & 5th QUALIFIED! The other 3 are plugging along doing their shows, so if not Nov 1st, maybe Dec 1st.
PRAY FOR ME!

believe me, it is driving me crazy! I have such a tension headache today. I'm trying so hard not to bother/annoy her, but this show ($1k+) is from September!!!:yuck: It was here sister's show, and since she didn't have the $ for her 1/2 price items and didn't want to forfeit them, she has been holding onto it. I called one more time this morning to see what was going on, and she said that she will submit it by midnight tonight, but to be honest I don't think she will do it. I've even tried letting her know that she has over $200 in commissions waiting on her, and still nothing. I've dangled free products for her to qualify also and she just isn't doing it. I'm beginning to think she is having too much fun watching me squirm:cry: :cry: :grumpy: :grumpy:

on a good note, the other emailed me her confirmations for 2 of her shows, and the other one is going in tonight, she's holding out for a few more orders, but knows that she has to qualify tonight to get that pan, so she's ready!!
