I have a recruit lead who wants to start first thing in March so we are planning on submitting her contract in late Februaury. Will her kit come with fall/winter catalogs or spring/summer catalogs. She won't need the F/W ones so she wants to make sure she will get the S/S one. I wasn't positive...but I signed in the very end of July '06 with September as my SS month 1 and I got some of both season's catalogs. I'm not sure if they will still do that with the new kit because they eliminated the buffer month. Any help would be greatly appreciated...this is my first recruit!
 
Hmmm...good question! I would call or email the HO on this one.
 
HI
I am doing the exact same thing...I do believe that I read somewhere that if she receives a quick start box it will be all spring summer so I am planning to double check that and order one for her now....that way she can get rolling right away because she wants to schedule some shows right the beginnng of March..I don't see how they can realistically get their business rolling and qualify in 30 days if they don't have that opportunity to have their paperwork and stuff earlier. I think us directors are going to handing out a lot of paperwork at the beginning of our new recruits businesses no matter what month or day of the month they sign up. Just my thoughts.

Ok, I should know this but what is a Quick Start Box? Is that different from the normal kit?
 
Directors can order these so that consultants can get a head start handing out catalogs/order forms, etc. before their kit arrives. :)
 
I called HO on this today as I have a recruit signing tomorrow. They said her kit will be all Spring/Summer and new paperwork - I specifically asked about the 6 pre-made Host packets - she said Spring/Summer catalogs and paperwork. But she will get 25 catalogs of Fall/Winter to hold her through February. As a Recruiter our 25 catalogs will be Fall/Winter (and they couldn't change that). That's how they explained it to me today!

Hold up...I'll get 25 catalogs for recruiting my gal last week? I didn't know that!
