I would like to earn the consultant planner binder but I asked three people yesterday and I even offered to give the host the host special for free. Most people are saying that it would be hard to have a show even a caddy show when they don't go back to work till the 5th! Any suggestions
 
Thats what I am doing because I really really want the binder so I am hosting my own open house/mystery host/customer appr. show.
 
Seems kind of silly, but I really want it too! I think I am going to send out some kind of after Christmas sale email and see if I can get enough to make a show. My January looks good for double points with four shows, but none are before the 15th.
 
I had a lady tell me that she had some friends who wanted some things. I asked her if they needed it for Christmas and she said no, so she's doing a little catty show to be turned in on the 5th! Hooray!! Not like I need it, but I GOTTA HAVE IT!!
 
I am kinda hoping I will be able to get something together so I can get it I am kinda on the fence on how well it would be.

Congrats on becoming a consultant!! Have your recruiter/director email or call HO and request a new calendar to be sent to you. I had this happen to a new recruit last December and they sent her, like you, the current years' calendar and not the next, so I just called them and they sent out a new one.
I would imagine that the binder doesn't come with a calendar since they've already sent those out.
 
Thanks Andrea! I will give HO a call on Monday!
 
I don't mean to ask a stupid question, but what is the Consultant binder?

it's not a stupid question...nothing is!
The info in the December newsletter... It part of the consultant incentives for January... it is a binder to keep our planner in!
I want it... but I don't know how I'm going to get it.... I'm very nervous about January... we've gotten record amounts of snow in Spokane this December and I don't know how much people are going to be jumping up to do shows in January... I'm going to have to get creative, I think!
 
Wonderful! I'm excited! I'm a little worried about January myself, I haven't been doing this long, but I've been pretty good with it so far! I also, LOVE it! It's a great side thing! Especially for extra money! I'm having a lot of issues getting shows right now! Let me know if you have any ideas!
 
I had a previous customer call me this morning & ask if I minded taking an order from her......really??? NO, I don't mind at all! Her items alone were over $130 so I'm getting the binder! Yea! Plus my neighbor has several orders that wanted to wait until after the first so double yea!
