So I signed three new consultants this month (I know, wow, for me). 1 of them has totally NOT responded to my emails, texts or phone calls about trainings, and I figured was a kit napper. Ready to blow her off...

This morning I get the notice from HO that she took 8 online training courses last week, called her to congratulate her and actually GOT her....she's on board--just not big on returning phone calls or emails. So when and if we do NC training I will have to emphasize how important that is with her.

You just never know...
 
WooHoo!!! :D
 
awesome! Love those little surprises :)
 
Good Luck, hopefully she is just not the hand holding type but still a go getter.
 
goes back to the fact that it has to be right of them
