Business Card Swap **Read and Respond**

In summary, Kelly McNamara is organizing an opportunity for 75 different people to send in their business cards with their reasons for beginning and staying with PC. Each person must mail 75 cards with a self addressed envelope with enough postage. The deadline for the cards to be mailed was extended to August 31st. There are 84 people participating in this swap and those who do not mail their cards within the allotted time will be cut from the exchange. Latecomers are still accepted and if someone does not have 75 cards, they can send less and receive less back from the swap.

Ok. With much thought, I am going to have to extend the mail in deadline. You now have till Friday, August 31st to get your cards in the mail!

For those of you who mailed in your cards by yesterday (the original deadline) I want to say a big THANK YOU!! http://www.forumup.com/images/smiles/slider_thankyou.gif
But, in order so that EVERYONE who committed to this can get their cards in I am extending the time frame. Otherwise, many of you who sent in all 75 cards would actually get many of your OWN cards back.

I can not stress enough how important it is that EVERYONE on this list sends in thier cards!

I am reposting the requirements here.
If you are just now hearing about this opportunity and want to participate, just let me know!
As long as you can ADHERE to the guidelines you can be included!

This is a wonderful opportunity! You send in your cards with YOUR reasons for doing PC and for staying with PC and you will get back UNIQUE cards from consultants all over! You can use these as a super recruiting tool! We all started our business for different reasons...and we all stay for varied reasons too! Think of a recruit lead flipping through 75 reasons from DIFFERENT people explaining how it fit their lives...chances are pretty good that one of those reasons will "click" with your new recruit!:thumbup:



Here is the current list of participants. Check to be sure that your name is on this list! (If it isn't, please PM or email me.)

*See below for list of specifics in order to participate.

Please note DUE DATE! We all need to adhere to this time frame, or it won't work.
Anyone who does not mail their cards within the alloted time will be cut from the exchange.

** Check to make sure I included you!

Each person needs to mail to me:

~75 business cards with the back stickered (or neatly handwritten) their reason(s) for BEGINNING their PC business AS WELL AS their reason(s) for STAYING with PC.
For example: I began my business for Free Product and $$$. I am still with PC because it has given me a sense of purpose for my life (helping others) and it is something that is 100% MINE.

~Self Addressed, POSTAGE applied envelope for me to return unique cards to you. Depending upon any late comers to the swap, you will receive 60-75 cards back, depending upon the total number of participants. Be SURE to apply enough postage.

Note for making sure you have enough postage:
Take your main envelope, all of your cards, and your SASE to the Post Office.
Have them weigh the ENTIRE THING. Then, put the same amount of postage on BOTH envelopes. That way, it doesn't matter what evelopes you are using, you will be sure to have enough postage! I certainly can't send out 75 packages if they don't have enough postage on them!!



Mail your completed cards to me POST MARKED NO LATER THAN Friday, August 31st.
Kelly McNamara
3190 Foxmoor Street NE
Hartville, Ohio 44632

Again, remember there are a lot of people participating in this swap...be considerate and get your stuff into the mail as soon as you can!

PS- I can still accept latecomers...let me know if you missed this thread and you still want to be included.

PPS- If you DON'T have 75 cards, you can send less...you will just receive less back from the swap. There are a few folks who really only have 25 to send at this point. Please send the entire 75 if possible. Then, you can "pick and choose" a variety of different "reasons" noted by everyone.
