Whoa its been a long time

It's been a long time since I posted and LOTS has happened!

I went through DIQ and made it through my 4th month, when I got a 9-5 job and completely lost my focus. Of course a month later I lost my great new J-O-B and was no where close to be in a position to resubmit DIQ and make it a success.

That brought one a large depression in my life and my business suffered. I was scheduling facials and doing tables at Dress Barn but I was not booking parties which is the backbone of this business.

Over time many of my recruits fell off the face of the earth and I am currently struggling each month to stay a red jacket (minimum 3 active recruits). HOWEVER - I am working my business the right way by booking classes and actually holding them!

I am working with my wonderful Director and BFF at a David's Bridal store which is about 2 and a half hours away from home and spending just about every weekend in Pennsylvania (with my director) holding parties. Go where the people are. I havent had much success yet in building my business in my local area so I am doing what I can to find business.

It's my goal to get 7 active consultants in time to go to the Leadership Conference in Houston in January. Last year recruiting was easy, but the quality of my recruits were not good and many of them either became inactive or never became active in the first place. Now I want to recruit a team of worker bees :)

I got to go to the infamous Seminar and had the BEST time of my life. Not only was the whole thing spectacular, fun and educational but I got to wear a beautiful Tiara because I was the Queen of Wholesale and Queen of Recruiting for my unit! I could write a whole post about Seminar. Maybe I will, but not tonight.

I would just like to end with a little bit about my Director who is absolutely amazing. She is allowing me to drive her crazy and stay with her whenever I need to in order to work my business and be a success! I want to be a Director mainly because I want her to be a Senior Sales Director and for her to get everything she deserves! She works so hard and is so underappreciated. I wish I could do more for her but for now the best I can do is be there for her and (hopefully) not overstay my welcome in the coming weeks ;)
