I have two new recruits signing this month (go me :D ). Anyway, I know they can sign themselves up, but I was wondering If I can sign them up. One of them was going to just give me her money for her kit, but I wasn't sure if I could sign her up myself.

Also, both recruits used part of their credit from their show to pay for part of their kit. I submitted both of their parties on Friday, so now what do we do when they sign up? Do they need the show number?
 
Awesome!! Way to share!!

If I want to sign a recruit myself I will have them fill out the paper agreement and I ask their permission to process it on line instead of by mail. They always say yes. They need to pay by credit card or cash or check to ME (then I pay PC with my PC credit card).

There is a place on the agreement for kit credit and yes they do need the show number.

Once the shows show up on your individual performance tracker they are in the system and will process.

Good for you!!!

Yes, you will need the show number to sign them up. As soon as the host's name shows up in the "Host Look Up" for the past host discount, you know it is in the system and can submit their agreements online.

If I am putting the Agreement in online from home (and I have used my own credit card # to pay for one of my consultants before), I make sure that they have read and signed a hard copy of the Kit Agreement, and give them a copy. I keep the other copies (in case there are any problems later).

Enter the information online yourself, when the 'payment' screen comes up, put in your name and cc#, and you're good to go!

Also, the 'show number' is a four digit #.

Congrats! Go get one more and earn an extra $50 HD card!!

OK. How does someone pay you personally via credit card?

They would pay you personally with cash or a check. If they pay by credit card then you enter their information in that place on the agreement. Just like a show order.
 
Congratulations!!!!!

Do you have stickers that say this, or do you just tell the guests?
 
I have stickers like that from my Director (get stickers every month for high sales, bookings, etc)....don't know where she got them, but I can check!
 
I say that line at EVERY show - but it would be wonderful to have stickers to put on catalogs & order forms! I'd buy tons!
 
I'm pretty sure that stickingtobusiness.com has those stickers:)
BTW, way to go Jennifer!!!
 
They do have those at sticking to business! I got some gold triangle ones. I put them on the top left corner of my catalogs & they look great with the cover! People really notice the stickers & like them!
