Yikes! I would call HO and find out before cashing it.
 
Did you recruit after the promotion? They still give you the $100 for Promoting before Jan. 1st.

Did you at all lose FD status this year and maybe gain it back in the last few months? (Consultant go inactive then reactivate?)
 
I think Janet's put her finger on it. Anyone who re-promotes to FD within the promo period will also get the bonus. That includes when inactive consultants on your team reactivate and that bumps you back up to FD.

Okay so this is what happened, I lost my status in Sept. But repromoted Oct because one of my ladies reactivated, so I can get the current promotion but I am only able to do this once. So I am kinda psyched about that!
 
woo-hoo! Bonus!! That helps pay for your Leadership airfare!

I am so glad that I bought my leadership airfare because the price keeps rising!!!
 
Way to go Amanda!!! :)
 
Did not know this!!! Cool!! I will share at my meeting on Sunday!
 
It's only until the end of the year. It was announced as part of the latest recruiting promotion.
 
Does this bonus still apply now? I am 6 weeks new and have just recruited 2 women this week. So, if they qualify before Jan. 1 do I get the bonus? I want to go to leadership conference, too. But, I can't find info on it.
 
I think the bonus was for anyone who promoted to FD through the end of the year, no matter when the people signed. So you should get it. BTW- they don't have to qualify for you to be an FD, they just have to be active.Leadership info is on CC under Consultant and Leadership Training. But the site is down for maintenance this weekend.
 
Thanks Ann. I have silently taken a lot of your advice directed to others these past 6 weeks. I appreciate all you do for all of us!! It will be a pleasure to meet you in January.
 
I got my check too! Awesome!!

Well I am taking my $$ and going to pay for my website because it's up for renewal at the end of the month! Good timing!

That's awesome!!! How did you do it??! What a great start to your business. Not to mention the awesome PC dollar bonuses and the recruiting special bonuses!:)
 
Awesome surprise Amanda!
 
Amazing. I thought that the $100 wouldn't be awarded to anyone that had already achieved FD or Director already. That means my FD will be getting it too once her second recruit sends her order in this month. I don't think I'll say anything to her though in case this was a mistake.

Lucky you!! Now go ahead and earn the $$ for promoting to director!

I also received the $100 check on Friday! What a shock for me also! Woo Hoo. Just promoted to FD in September but before the new promotion started. I am doing the Happy Dance also...
 
I am still waiting on mine! Maybe today will be the day!
 
I thought the promotion was for any new promotions, but it was for ANY promotions period. That was cool!! I had one gal reactivate and signed a new one. was pretty excited about earning the $100 check, although I felt a little guilty since it wasn't my first time as FD. Oh well, they wrote the rules!
 
I took my hubby out to a VERY nice dinner with my bonus check. It was our
9th wedding anniversary, and in good timing too. We've had a million things going on and really needed a realxing night out by ourselves for a change.

That bonus check was a wonderful thing! Can't wait to get a $250 bonus when I promote to Director by Dec 31!! I LOVE MY JOB!!!!!
 
How soon did your check come after you promoted?

Does my new recruit have to qualify b/c I promoted to Director when I signed my 2nd last month and still no sign of any extra $$.
 
For Director they do have to qualify.FD is 2 personally recruited active recruits (not necessarily qualified).
Director is 5 personally recruited QUALIFIED recruits.
