Working Towards Disney, Need Help!

[chefkathy]

I am $103 away thanks to some online orders, but I have $700 sitting on my desk and two more shows to go....Yippee!!!I'm also excited because for some reason I had it in my head that level 2 included no travel allowance, but it does! They just won't make the arrangements for us--we get $600 instead. Whew!

Way to go ladies! I'm so proud of all of you!!! HUGS!!!!

I know, isn't it great? Wanna take an extra kid and I'll buy David in?

buying David in is only $30!!!!! So I am thinking my 3rd guest will be his babysitter.

I know! That's great! Buying my 3rd in is $420! HUGE difference!

Last night I went over the top for level three for my own points .... now to qualify my two recruits. One only needs about $100 ... so I know she's there. The other needs about $1000 but has a show this Saturday so she'll be there... I'm just sending her kilo show vibes!!!!! I have to buy in a 6 year old so she just HAS to do it!

 

[Chef Kearns]

You are lucky only having to buy-in 1 child!! I have to buy in 3!! We are a family of 6 (hey Quiverfull7, which kiddos aren't you taking?) and none of our have moved out yet. LOL! I wish a family trip covered your whole immediate family, no matter how large. I wouldn't have a problem just buying in my MIL to help with the kids if all the kids could go. I am in no way poo-pooing the trip, it's just going to be a touch pricey for a FREE trip. That's all.

Yeah, you're right. At least it's a big dent taken out with 4 paid for, right?

We are taking the three youngest ( 13, 11 & 6). I wanted to buy in the others that still live at home, which of course then made me want to buy in our oldest daughter, her DH and our other 2 granddaughters which I don't think is even possible. Anyway, I prayed over this after seeing the cost and before I even told the older girls, God had gone ahead of me. They are cool with not going and are excited for the 3 young ones to experience this with us by themselves. With two generations in our house, it's a blessing to be able to do this with these 3. It's a huge blessing since DH doesn't have a job. I'm praying hard that he gets a job but that he will also be able to take off the time needed to make this Disney trip with us. I can't imagine not having him there. I'm trying not to think about that right now...just celebrating and working hard with both these consultants. It's all so exciting isn't it?

 

[PampMomof3]

It really is exciting. My kids keep asking if we're going and I'm saying yes, we've earned it! They wanted to finish hi-liting the tracker!!

 

[cincychef]

Darcy,
How are you doing? and everyone else?

As of right now it looks like once I send in the shows I have, I will still need $1739 (it could be a little less if any of these shows get bigger) I have already submitted over $5000 this month!! 8 shows turned in and 6 to still submit. I have one more cooking show on Dec 20th and two catalog shows that will close the 28th. I offered all of them a free DCB if they have a $500 show, but we will see if they get there. (I am using my PC $ from this month for the free baker)
I also still need my recruit to qualify and I can't reach her! I called and she may have hung up on me. I was going to offer to have her come to my last show and I would give her the sales to qualify.
I have a list of 7 businesses to pamper this week and am asking EVERY last friend I have if they can get $100 in orders for me.

My last resort is to call people who have ordered seasonings and try for reorders.
What is everyone else doing?

This is way too close for comfort!

 

[cincychef]

Sorry,
Just had to add my three year old has spend all week saying, when we go to Disney I am going to see Mickey Mouse and Goofy and............ the list goes on and on.

He has really missed me when I leave for shows and yesterday he started crying don't leave for work mommy I just want to go to Disney now!

 

[OhmyDLM]

Oh my gosh Chantelle, you have worked your behind off and you certainly deserve to earn this trip, I sincerely hope you get it, and sooner rather than later, the stress of waiting until last second is killing me too! Please keep us updated!!!

As far as I go, my tracker still says that I have 41,000 points. So still need the 11,000 points to get it. My plan is still the same, I have 5 consultants who still need to qualify and I have plans set in place with all of them, hoping that they will do so! I actually have 6 more new consultants out there that need to qualify, but I'm only counting on 5 of them doing so. Then I will only need $1000 more in sales points myself. I've got that more than covered so we'll see! I hate hate hate waiting & depending on someone else to do something for me to earn something, but it's what it has come down too, and it's mostly my fault for taking those 3 months off for the severe morning sickness! I still have hope and I will be sure to keep you all updated! I can't tell you how motivating it has been to log in here and see messages from you all questioning how I'm doing, it's kept me going this past month, that's for sure!!!

<3 Darcy

Oops, nevermind!

That is a GREAT plan!!! So, are you not expecting those 7 businesses to get orders in by the 15th for the cut-off date?? I've been contemplating doing this again but I don't know how open they'd be if the orders won't be in by Christmas. Hmmmm.

I need a consultant to qualify too! She's about $500 away with no shows on the horizon. I've offered her a BIG bonus of some free products I have if she qualifies by the end of the month. Aaah......I don't like this stress. And I won't be here all next week, so I can't use next week to get out and get orders.

 

[OhmyDLM]

OMG!!!!!!!!!!!! Just did all the math out and when my next 5 consultants qualify, (I think they are all going to be by tomorrow!) and I submit my own sales tomorrow too, I'm only $90.68 away from earning Level II Disney!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Now that's a number I KNOW I can make happen!!!

Right now my tracker says I have 40,702 points, that's going to be crazy to see it jump that much in 1 day if everything comes together!!! Took WAY more work and planning than that 1 day, but to see the tracker jump almost 12,000 points over night will be REALLY AWESOME don't you think!!!??? Keeping my fingers crossed that all of my consultants do it tomorrow like they've told me they are going to, it would be so nice not to have this hanging over my head throughout the holiday!

I am still in awe that I'm having our newest little boy in May and I could be taking my one month old son and our 22 month old son to DISNEY with the Pampered Chef!!!

Thats awsome!!! Let us know when it shows up.

I was just going to pamper the businesses anyway. Even if I only get $300 in sales out of it it could earn me the trip.

My consultant who needs to qualify might just come to one of my shows but I am also helping her follow up with some leads.

 

[PampMomof3]

Wow Darcy! That will be awesome!!

Good Luck! Can't wait to share your successes with you!

 

[chefkathy]

go ladies! you can do it!

 

[Chef Kearns]

Darcy!! That is so awesome!! I am so proud of you and happy for you!!

I need one consultant to qualify and $800 in sales!! That sound really far off still. My consultant doesn't have any shows submitted. Her first show isn't until the 20th!! I'm going to shadow her on her host coaching and we are going to plan a Grand Opening for her as well, after Christmas. I hate to still be stressing over it. I wish I were done already, too!!

 

[PampMomof3]

My consultant has $1183! Her 30 days ends on December 21st. She'll get there!!

 

[OhmyDLM]

I might have a heart attack after all the work I did today!

I helped ALL 5 of my newest consultants submit ALL of their first shows today one by one. It seriously took me all day long and if I crunch another number anytime soon, my head will literally pop off...

BUT, if my calculations are correct, and MAN I HOPE THEY ARE!!! LoL Tomorrow (or whenever it decides to update) my incentive tracker should read 52,071 points!!!!!!!!! That's 71 points over what I need right? LoL I'm so serious when I say I'm done crunching numbers LoL

Here's the crazy thing, tonight my tracker is reading 40,702. What a way to make it move in one day huh! YAY ME! LoL

Thanks for all the encouragement everyone, it's been so helpful and motivating to me!!!

Best of luck to everyone else out there crunching numbers, I know your pain...

 

[Chef Kearns]

Yay Darcy!! What an amazing job you did!!

 

[finley1991]

Way to go Darcy!!!!

 

[pamperedbecky]

HOly cow Darcy!!!! That's amazing!!! Way to go!!

 

[cincychef]

Way to go Darcy!!!!!!
I submitted 7 shows in the last 24 hours and the last one made it in at 12:59 central time! As of right now I have $7,820.81 submitted ( I beat my personal best) and I just booked another December show today!! So I have 2 cooking shows left this month and 2 catalog shows. I still need my recruit to qualify but she submitted a show so she needs $751 in sales. She has been an my team for a while so we are going to do my last show together to help her qualify. I also signed two people so far this month!!
I think I am going to make it to Disney level 3! I am so thankful for all of my great hosts.

 

[Chef Kearns]

Also, My team is at $10722 with me included but that's our best month yet! YAY! And I've hit my directorship status (it's showing already!) AND my consultant is only $67 away from qualifying so I'll hit it!

I'm so excited!! Great Month!
