Why Aren't My Qualified Consultants Showing as Senior Consultants?

[PamperedChefDebi]

I have a consultant (1st line) who has one recruit (2nd line) and SHE has one recruit (3rd line). The 3rd line consultant is not yet qualified but the 1st and 2nd line consultants are qualified but NEITHER of them are showing up as Senior Consultants. Everyone is active this month. Does anyone know if this is typical or do I need to call HO to ensure everyone is reflected correctly and that we are all getting paid properly?

TIA!

Titles go into effect 1st of every month. So it will show up by June 10th (once they update all the end of month stuff) but they will be PAID as Sr Consultants for May from what I understand.

 

[chefkathy]

oh, and qualification has nothing to do with it anymore, just activity.

 

[PamperedChefDebi]

Thanks Deb! I wasn't clear on the 1st part (the title) but everything else is what I thought.

 

[PamperedChefDebi]

OK, further question.....So, since LAST MONTH I only had one SC "active," I will only get paid as a TL THIS month? That doesn't seem right.

You would only get paid as a TL under the new plan, but they are paying us at the higher level Apr, May and June, so you will be getting regular Dir pay as long as you were a Dir on March 31st.I am in the same boat trying to keep track of everyone who has an "active line" and those who don't. Right now I am waiting on a SC to turn in a show this month (her recruit did already) and have another TL who is good to go for this month (in fact she may end up being a Director soon).I am hoping to get my structure set before the end of June...it's a lot of work!!!

You would only get paid as a TL under the new plan, but they are paying us at the higher level Apr, May and June, so you will be getting regular Dir pay as long as you were a Dir on March 31st.

But ONLY IF you met the director requirements under the old plan.

So in order to get paid as a director from now until July, you have to have one of two things:
1. 4 active lines, two of which are SC lines (new plan)
2. 5 active, first line consultants (old plan)

You still get paid on performance, even though your title is in effect.

So I could have 5 SCs THIS month, but if I only had 1 last month, I'm still screwed? I wouldn't get all my overrides this month? But then next month I would get the extra in overrides, but potentially on less cluster sales?

Am I totally screwing this up? It's hard to express what I'm trying to ask so I hope I make sense.

And all my questions are in relation to the NEW PLAN without considering the grace period.

 

[cheftiffany]

Here's an example
April you met all the sales requirements but only had 1 SC (4 active lines but only one is a SC) You would be paid as a Team leader but can keep your Director title for 3 grace months. (assuming you were a director as of March 32st)
In May you have all your ducks in a row--4 active lines with two being 2 Senior Consultants and met all the sales requirements. On the June 8th paycheck you will receive pay as a Director. Your overrides don't go into effect until the month end check just like before.

If you were a Team Leader on April 1st with the above scenerio then you promote to Director June 1st but still get paid as a Director for May's paycheck on June 8th.

Hopefully that helps

I do understand what is being explained. However, it still doesn't fit my scenario. Let me see if I can break it down and not confuse myself any further! LOL!I WAS a Director on Mar 31st.As of TODAY, per my performance tracker, I have:
1. 5 active lines
2. One TL (with only one active line)
3. One SC (whose line has NOT yet met the monthly $150)
4. One Consultant who HAS met SC requirements for the month but is still only showing up as a Consultant (which Deb explained).Now when I check my Title Requirements, it shows one SC. I would have expected my Title Requirements to reflect and 2 SCs based on this month's performance so far. Wouldn't my TL show up as an SC for Title Requirements at this point since she's only met the SC requirement?Does this make sense? Can you understand my confusion now?

My bet is that the one SC that is showing up is your TL. If the SC who has met the requirements (both she and her recruit have submitted at least $150 each) isn't showing up it could be that one of the shows isn't posted to your tracker yet. It'll be there soon! One of the shows could be on hold or they could just be slow at updating...

No, my tracker shows they're both well over the $150 minimum.

Well that's wierd then. I'd call.
