Dee is in my upline . . . my director's director. I'm not sure what she does that is special, but I will ask her about it tomorrow at our cluster meeting and let all you guys know.

Can't wait to hear about it!! I've had a company order before, but only about $300! I was excited about that!! I would have been *flipping out* if she had ordered even $1,000!!!:D Actually, she called me on Friday & is gone for the weekend, but I'm supposed to talk to her Tuesday....maybe she wanted to place a HUGE order!!!!!:rolleyes: :D
 
I do know that she has VERY successful fundraisers.

How do you get company orders? Do you just know the person who is the head of the company? And what companies order PC prods for their employees? That is very interesting...did you approach them about it?

Not to hijack this thread, but a question to you NE Indiana consultants. Where exactly do you live. I may be moving to NW Indiana soon, and wondering if I have low sales to look forward to also. Is it just a NE thing, or should I prepare myself for a change in business.

Where are you moving?
 
We hope to move to Cedar Lake. We have a weekend home there, and want to move there full-time. We are taking steps to make that happen (building garage there, getting this home ready to sell, etc) I have decided once I move, I will concentrate on building my business there, rather than going all over the ends of the earth to do shows, as I am now.

I am an incredibly impatient girl.....cliffhangers are not my thing!
 
I'm new to the board...but after reading this thread - I wanna know! :)
 
Unfortunately, Dee wasn't at the meeting on monday, and no one else really knew what she was doing that was special. Sorry I don't have more for you guys, but I'll ask her about it next time I see her.
