Last year someone scanned and emailed it after Wave 1. I was just wondering if anyone was going to do that this year. I know there are A LOT of use that are dying to see pics!

It'll be online either the last day of Wave 3 or the Monday immediately following.

I remember that, I just know that someone sent it to me early last year.
 
Well, all of us from Wave 1 were sworn to secrecy by Doris, and personally, in honor of those in the latter waves, it's only right to wait until the end of Wave 3. I'd be ticked if I was in Wave 3, had paid for it and was patiently waiting to go to the news and then found out ahead of time. Just my HO. But, I WILL tell you that everyone will be thrilled with what they find out!!
 
Please add me to the list too. I was not able to attend this year due to a family obligation. Thank you!!!

Not able to go due to hubby not getting vacation
 
Question, can the people who went to wave one advertise any promotions to their customers, etc. ASAP, or do they have to wait until everyone gets back to do so?
 
Can someone send me some of the info from NC? I was not able to attend and am anxious to find out what is new and being discontinued. My email address is

EXACTLY!! I am amen-ing everyone saying things like this. For those that go, we are investing money into our biz's to find these things out, we make promises not to tell; so these spoilers shouldn't happen.
You all just really need to be patient!

Yes - you can talk to your customers about it!

There are certain promotions with end dates according to when you attended conference, so to me, that if inferring that we can contact our customers with info!
 
I think that's a tricky one b/c if a consultant talked to a customer about conf. info & that customer knew of another consultant & asked them about it, they may not know. I'd be ticked if a customer of mine asked me about something from conference & I didn't know about it yet.
 
I think everyone needs to keep it to yourself, until saturday. It is just not fair for all of you to be getting early nfo.

But - like I said in an earlier post - There is a dated promotion that is based on when you attended conference (it's only for conference attendees). SO - PC is EXPECTING us to share with our customers as soon as we get home from conference, and not wait for the other waves to finish up. If those who attended wave 1 waited - we would miss out!
 
they tell you to bring stamps for mini-catalogs
 
It this the first year that they have done this Becky or is it new?

The special promo? It's the first year I remember it being dated according to conference time.

But the stamps - that is something they've always done. Plus, in the years I couldn't go, my director always called me with all of the news...she never waited til she got home to share with me! Then, she would have me email the rest of the cluster!

We just aren't supposed to tell anything on loops or places like CS so as not to spoil it for the other waves, or other directors who want to be the first to share with their clusters, that's all. Some people take it to the extreme though.

Of course, I don't think they realize we have all of you Canadian buddies here on CS with us though!:eek:
 
I have been with PC for 7 years and they have always said to bring stamps for mailing stuff from conference.

So will we ruin everything for you if we start talking about NC on Saturday?

Somethings are different but most of the new stuff in the catty is the same. You guys always have one or two things we don't. We sometimes have different recruiting incentives and vise versa.

I'm not getting my knickers in a knot about it, if I didn't want to know I just wouldn't log on here.


I am not going to the Canadian conference this year and was happy to receive information from here cause this IS my cluster. My "director" lives 7 hours away from me and there isn't another one in my area. I NEVER hear anything from my "director".
 
I would like to be added to the list of people getting a copy of the Special Edition Consultant News [email protected].
Thank you
Melissa
