I've been so bogged down lately, feeling like I'm spending so much time on my business and not getting anywhere with it. I'm desperate for bookings and sales, and wanting to bring my biz back to the point where I loved what I was doing. For all of you who haven't joined in on the tele-classes, they work wonders! I didn't actually join in on a live one, I listened to a pre-recorded one, but it was SO much valuable information packed into an hour, and I could pause the recording to take notes or come up with my own answers to their questions.. It was so great. My whole attitude changed from desperation to excitement and anticipation (yay!), and I found the love in my job again!
Anyway, just wanted to say how excited I am now--and how grateful I am that PC provides these classes to us. They're perfect and help a lot!

God bless!

I've been meaning to do some of the tele-classes too. The pre-recorded option sounds great since my house can be a bit nutty at times, so rewinding and pausing would be great. Problem is, I can't find out how to do this. I looked in consultant's corner but could only find out how to sign up for the live ones. Maybe it's different for Canadian consultants :confused:

Eek, yea that could be true. Maybe your recruiter or consultant would know? They probably have the pre-recorded ones in Canada too, wouldn't they?
 
It should be the same. You just have to go to Consultants Corner, and go to Consultant and Leadership training and find Tele classes. You will have to download the iLinc program. Very easy :D, and I'm not that into computers.
Then you pick the class you would like to listen too. I hope this helps. I just listened to my first pre-recorded class and I loved it!! A ton of great advise. Let me know how it works out. :)

Try the live ones tooIf you get an opportunity to, try the live tele-classes too! I had listened to the pre-recorded also, and decided to take a live one. I highly recommend them! The recorded ones are good, but there is something about being able to interact and be a part the class that is so awesome. So far I have taken the Bookings class and the customer care class (live)!

You can mute your phone so that everyone doesn't hear if you have little ones at home. I have a 3 and a 1 1/2 year old who aren't always cooperative during my phone calls!

Limited PM classesI have been wanted to do these but it seems like the ones I am interested in are rarely offered at night.
 
Did you see that some of them are recorded and can be listed to at any time? I've never done a pre-recorded one, but I would definitely look into it because they're great. Also see if your upline (Executive-level) director maybe offers phone conference trainings. Several of them do. Good luck!
