IF (and that may be a big IF) everyone does what they are supposed to do and closes by Monday I have 3200 sitting in the computer right now and I haven't turned a single thing in yet for this month. I"m crossing my fingers that all of my hosts do what they are told by me!

All of my hosts did what they were supposed to and I ended up with $3800! Woo hoo! And I didn't do a show until after the 15th! I"m thrilled! :sing:

Steph - talk about being on pins and needles and down to the wire. How nerve wracking!!!

I hit $3,000 last week.

I wish they had a level between $3,000 and $6,000. I can hit the $3,000 but have no hope of $6,000. If they had $4,500 (or something else above the top commission level) then it would be a more reasonable stretch. But I love my freebies!!! And usually there isn't much if anything at the $6,000 level that I really wish I had. PC is so good about putting the essential new products in the $1,500 and $3,000 levels. I define essential as being needed for shows and being the most popular new products to display.

No kidding! I was literally closing shows all day yesterday...and I had 2 shows w/ credit cards that were declined, etc. I had a headache by last night and just wanted to be done already!

I agree w/ a level between 3k and 6k! But, it's ok, we get a really decent package at the 3k mark and I'll take whatever I can get!
 
Well, I have three catalog shows and a cooking show to close today. Final at the moment is $12,074 Incredible month including DIRECTOR promotion! 19 shows/4 catalog shows.....I do live in the 48th poorest state in US so have to have lots of shows to get up there!

However, December will be a different animal! I am purposely taking three weeks off of parties to spend time with family as this has been such a crazy year! I have five shows....praying they are awesome!

AWESOME!!!!! Way to GO!!!!
 
All 6 of my catalog shows are bombing. :( I'm definitely submitting one other catty show, but it's a small one. My sister's will close today, but it's also going to be small. And another friend's is at $400. I submitted a small show of my own earlier in the month. But I have those other catty shows where the hosts just aren't reachable right now. I don't know if they have a single order or not. As of a couple weeks ago, they hadn't done anything with them. I've tried to contact them several times but can't ever make actual contact with them to do host coaching. :(

WooHoo!!! Woke up with a phone call this morning from a friend wanting to order some Christmas gifts!!! Almost $100 and every little bit helps at this point!
 
I'm $80 away. :( I don't think I'll buy something just so I can get stuff for free. Right? I wish I knew how much we were going to earn for free in products at the $1500 level so I could decide if it was worth it.
 
What about gifts that you have to buy anyway... teacher, family, friends, etc? $80 is soooo close... Also, do you need any cash and carry for shows?Good luck! I say go for it!!!
