I appreciate the heads up. Thank you for posting!
 
I appreciated the heads up because I have a potential recruit who has been too busy right now and I was hoping there would still be something cool offered next month for her. I think it's only natural that someone who received it in the mail would think it's okay to share the news. Don't beat yourself up about it. I wonder why they sent the e-mail and how they knew who got it early? Are they sending things out in a test pattern or something? Is there a chance they are going to change the specials?March has great incentives going on and I've had an awesome month and so has my recruit. Knowing what's coming up in April has me excited to hit the phones and get things lined up sooner for April, because after the busy March I was going to just take it easy for April. I have one show that a friend is doing and then my in-laws are coming so I felt like I'd just relax. But now, I'm definitely hitting the phone and trying to get a booking for earlier in April.
 
I got a teaser email from our hospitality NED today saying BOOK BOOK BOOK for April! You won't regret it! But from your list, I don't see any reason why that would be her response. (She's not normally one to react that way for the type of things in your list.)By the way- you can wrap a "Spoiler" around the text within your post by clicking on that little "eye" icon in the post tools. (It's on the far right of the buttons- along the top.) I would like to know what happened to the "delete" option though! They took that away!!
See....like this! ;)
But I don't care either way.By the way- just proves that if they give the USPS the CN within a certain period, it CAN arrive by the early part of the month! HA
 
Its great that you got your April CN this early...I just received March yesterday...nothing unusual about that.

I still don't have March yet. I actually haven't received several of them at all. When I call HO, they tel me it's USPS fault and that I can just "download and print" from CC. The CSR was kinda snippy about it. So at this point I don't really care if I get one or not. I will ck the web and if it comes in the mail, it comes. I was a little disappointed in the attitude she had.

Here's the biggest things on recruiting incentives... there isn't always one (lately there has been but you cannot guarantee it). That being said HO wants us to sign our recruits now not have them wait to see if there is a better deal. Any deal on top of the regular kit price is an awesome deal. When I signed up there wasn't any extra incentive! We need to talk about the business and the benefits you get and then talk about the extras!
 
I don't think it should be a BIG SECRET we are all working on our business and if it helps to know what is going on a bit sooner the better. HO wants us to get more and more people to join and more and more sales so is a day or 2 going to make a big differance
The directors in our cluster received there CN already and I am sure working there business just a bit ahead of time
 
I got the email first and the CN in the next day.
