In 30 days. The sad part, It cost me alot! Hope it was worth it to qualify. I will make commission, and then I will get the 50 pc dollars. Im really hoping it was worth it. (oh well, if not, I still got alot of PC stuff):D
 
You beat me, I only did 3...you did know you could qualify with $1250 in sales OR 4 shows...you didn't need both...

I have done that in the past... its ok! Congrats on qualifying!
 
If nothing else, you do have some GREAT products to use! :) I love my PC stuff... ...and I admit I buy for myself sometimes...actually after all Carolyn's talk about the microfiber towel, I bought myself an eggplant one... ;)
 
Congratulations Cori!
 
DUH - pardon my being ditzy and impolite tonight!

CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
YOU DID IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

...and you were nervous a few weeks ago...
 
Congrats Cori! You'll actually receive 100 PC$ as it was in your first 30 days... and if your total was over $1250 you will get an additional $100 pc$, so I hope that will make it worth it! Also, I too added stuff to a show to get qualified. I didn't make any money with my first commission check, but I sure did quadruple the amount of PC in my kitchen! Think of what you purchased as in investment that will further your business! Keep on rockin and you will go far!

Congratulations!

BTW, if you added to a show...make sure you used the "consultant's gift" as the payment form and save the receipt for taxes! Those are investments into your business! (and yes, I know this because I have done this quite a few times!)
 
Loce the confetti!
 
Just wanted to say....Congratulations Cori!!
 
Congratulations Cori! What a great start....you should be very proud of yourself for getting it done in 30 days. Way to go!!!
 
Congrats! it feels great, doesn't it?!?!
 
congratulations........and just think you can use your pc dollars during kit enhancement month too!
 
Congrats!!!:):D:):D It will be worth it in the end!!

But if you do both you get $200 bonus (in the first 30 days! $100 for # of shows and $100 for sales!)

Congratulations on qualifying!


PS: You said you get $50! It's $100 because of the 30 day thing!!!
