What is friend: Definition and 193 Discussions

Ok, I have only lived in Canada for around 5 years so I never knew of this amazing feature! I have a host who I am sure is avoiding calls - well until tonight that is! tee hee.....I pressed *67 before the number and lo and behold she picked up :) there is no hiding now folks! m

i had a neighbor call me this morning..who had attended my show last night..and mentioned she was talking with a friend of hers who has some cookware she purchased, which she is having problems with, and needs to return it.. Her friend doesn't remember who her consultant is... What would...

She's on her vacation with her dad. She'll be gone until the 15th. Makes me sad. :( I know I'll be gone & conference will help keep my mind busy, but I still miss her! My heart goes out to all the other parents going through this. I know Celeste & Carolyn are too. Hugs!

Okay, Normally I don't have too big of a problem giving out catalogs but... I met a friend of my neighbors in May and she wanted some catalogs so she could collect orders. She didn't want to commit to an actual show but thought she could help me out collecting orders. I gave her about 4 but...

My aunt has a friend who's husband has luekemia (sp?). This wouldn't really be a fundraiser because the husband will NOT accept any money from anyone. The wife is in need of some new cookware/kitchen tools, but doesn't have the money to purchase them. My aunt is thinking that the friends of...

I'm still a newbie (less than 50 days) and had a question about your specials. Do you just make them up or is there a place that you get your ideas? One of my hostesses asked me what the "bring a friend" special was for her show month. I suppose she's seen one at another PC party. She's inviting...

I have 2 round bottom roast pieces of meat to cook (One for my friend, one for me). I love the PC recipes I have tried so far (the BBQ brisket from Stoneware cookbook is yummy & my kids love it). I've done corned beef in the deep dish baker with great results (you can buy the less fattier/flat...

My mom's best friend, Valerie Ernst, was diagnosed with breast cancer today. It is "invasive" and not encapsulated (from what we understand, encapsulated would have been better). She went in earlier this week for a needle biopsy during which they accidentally punctured her lung...so she first...

Hi, I just wanted to tell everyone to get over their fears and get on that phone! No one I know would say I have a problem talking to people but I am hesitant when it comes to strangers, especially when I go to asking them to host a show. But.....I got on the phone big time this weekend and boy...

Is anyone currently charting on Fertility friend? I recently started and would love to have some buddies over there if there are any cheffers over there. I'm guessing that there might be since I found out about it on this site.

I just co-sponsored a Relay for Life team with my friend Helene who is a two-time cancer survivor. I am excited. DH is going to collect $ at his store and will sell Italian Ices at the walk all night & give the $$ to the team. I am bringing my kids to walk with us as long as they can hold out...

I can't even believe this one! I've been working with my BEST friend (of 30, yes 30 years) to get her to join PC for about 2 months now...thought I had her pretty close to joining. She called me tonight to ask if I would host a PARTYLITE show for her, as she just signed on to sell CANDLES...

Hi All! I have talked before on other threads about my friend Michelle - who has been battling breast cancer for 4 years. Over that time it has metastisized to liver cancer, than brain cancer, and now back to the liver. She has defied the Dr's prognosis time and time again - but this time...

Does anyone have a good recipe for it? I have a friend that is looking for one. Thanks!

But not under me! The host from yesterday's show sent me an email asking if I get credit for her friend signing on, but I don't think the friend signed up through my website and I know she didn't have my consultant ID number. :( It would have been so cool if she had because I've really...

I will be flying to New York next week to visit a friend for a few days. I would like to be prepared to do a cooking show for her if she asks for one. Any suggestions of what products I might take with me and also recipe ideas "just in case"?

I am a US consultant but was approached by a friend in Canada asking to do a party. Am I able to do this? Can they order on my website?

So, I have this best friend who works for a very large engineering firm, plus he's involved in all kinds of organizations. He agreed to do a catalog show for me in October. (September wasn't good and I need the sales). Last night he e-mailed me to tell me that he sent out e-mails about his...

OK... I made a call today to a friend of my Mom's. She had asked me several months ago to please tell her when Mom gets her kidney transplant. Well, it happened last night, so I called her this morning.... ANYWAY!!!! While I was talking to her, we got around to PC (of course ;) she used to be...

I had a friend and customer of ours e-mail me to tell me she wants to talk to me and my husband about her new business opportunity with Quixtar. I googled it and it is the same thing as Amway. I had a horrible experience with an Amway rep years ago and I just don't like anything about that...

I am feeling very inadequate around the new mandolin. I have yet to accomplish one successful slice. It really shouldn't be that hard! Am I really that challenged or is anyone else having this difficulty. Please help - I have no idea how I am going to demo this! :eek:

The help is more for me than anything. I have a friend at church that is a single mom. She has consistently said that she needs to make some extra money to help with expenses for her son. She lives with her mom. I think that she'd be great at PC (I've not even approached her yet), but I...

I have a good friend who just starting selling Home Interiors. (another Direct Selling company) We started our "businesses" at the same time (last month!) and have been trying to support/motivate each other. We agreed to do shows for each other....She is doing A H.I. party for me on 8/24 and...

I almost fell off my chair!

I'm looking for a cluster in Three Rivers, Texas or Alice Texas. There is a consultant there looking for a group to belong to. Please post if you are!:D

I have a host having a party ten days from now (Sat. May 20). She was so sad cause no ones coming to her party and she's taking it personally. She wants to have the party (more for socializing than for the products) but is now feeling like a failure. I tried to encourage her to think of other...

Hey ya'll....need a bit of advice. My friend who recruited me was telling me about a show she had this past weekend. I told her to come here and ask you all but I don't think she's made it here yet. She's pretty discouraged. The show yielded no bookings whatsoever, and no interest for...

:confused: My best friend lives in PA. Her friend said she was thinking about becoming a consultant, so I had my B.F. tell her that I'd recruit her. She said ok have her call me. On Wed. my B.F. gave me her phone # and said her friend said for me Not to call on thurs b/c she wouldnt be home...
