Just wondered your thoughts on this. I'm loving the intro show idea from Lydia Martin and did my 2nd one last night... I have 2 more to do this month!

My question is about long-distance recruits... how do you all handle this? How do you help new long-distance consultants get off to a successful start?
 
I have a document that I send them about launching in the first 30 days--I don't know how to post it here or I would. And I talk to them weekly.
