Compared to last year at this time:

Are your team members up? down?

Are your team sales up? down?
 
My team is down, numbers are down, and sales are down...was at 24 last year, now i'm at 18.
 
My personal sales are WAY down and my team is a little all over the place. I have more people, but some have dropped off the face of the Earth.
 
My team is down and they honestly act as if they care from 25 to 18 and yet they do not all turn in anything half the time....
 
Hi there,As a fellow Pampered Chef consultant, I can definitely relate to the importance of tracking team performance. In response to your question, I would say that my team members are definitely up compared to last year. We have been working hard to support and motivate each other, and it has definitely paid off in terms of individual performance.In terms of team sales, we are also up compared to last year. We have been implementing new strategies and techniques to reach a wider audience and attract more customers. Additionally, our team has been actively participating in virtual events and workshops, which have helped boost our sales.Overall, I am very proud of my team's growth and progress this year. We are constantly striving to improve and support each other, and I am confident that we will continue to see positive results in the future.
