Do I Need to Hold Monthly Meetings as a Team Leader in Lineage?

Are you sure about this??? I think that everyone gets a recruiting bonus when that consultant qualifies. Maybe it's just semantics....b/c a Consultant would be a Sr. Consultant once that happens.

For the recruiting promotion between now and 2/28 every level gets a bonus based on their level.

After 4/1 it will go based on your level and according to the little book it is only senior consultants.

I am with you, but because of the way she had it broken down...

It was REALLY nice to meet you!!

I loved meeting you too and I can't believe that the only time I saw you was the MnG!

I really wish I would have logged on BEFORE going to leadership to see about the M&G... that was foolish of me not to, I'm so sorry I missed out on meeting some of you! I did listen for names tho as people were crossing stage!

Janice (and anyone else who might be thinking they are in the same boat), I encourage you to remember when looking back at past sales that, of course you didn't have the right structure for Director pay over the past year because that wasn't the goal you were trying to reach necessarily. Of course we all want our teams recruiting but it didn't have the same emphasis that it does now. I would imagine that now we will all place a different empahsis on talking to our new team members about building their teams right from the start whereas before, I'm sure that a lot, if not most of us, would maybe wait awhile until they got the basics of doing a show, getting bookings, submitting orders, etc down first. It's amazing how the things that you focus on grow. I think this is PC's way of making sure that we focus on recruiting.

Also, someone was saying that our position would be ever changing because we get paid according to performance. That really isn't any different than it is right now. If you are in relinquishment, you don't get director pay, you get future director pay but you are still a director. That is the same in the new program. You maintain your title for 3 months as a director (longer for higher levels) despite what level you are being paid at so just because your recruit's recruit didn't submit $150 in a month making it so that you are shy one Sr Consultant, you don't move to team leader status, you simply get paid as a team leader. Your director title stays intact unless you don't meet the requirements for 3 consecutive months. Then you move down but it is easily regained...no more starting over!

Hope that helps to clarify things and gives a brighter outlook! I too am currently in what would be considered team leader status but I know that I can teach people to recruit so I am not worried about it. The new plan creates a better stepping stone for what it takes to maintain directorship and that can only be a good thing. Also, HO is planning to recognize consultants for being active and I would imagine would start giving prizes for consistently meeting active requirements.

I want to know what others, as directors are planning to do. I want to work something into my recognition program but I'm not sure what might be of a big enough benefit to make a difference to someone while at the same time not being too expensive on my end. Don't want to be making a big fuss over $150 but for consistently maintaining their active status. ANy ideas?

I may end up eating my words on this, but I don't think it's the monetary value of the recognition that matters as much as it is the level of sincerity involved.

We all can sense when the sincerity is faked, or when it's given because it makes the giver feel good. Most consultants, IMHO, just appreciate being recognized for what they do...even if their sales aren't the highest or their calendar the most filled.

ps. - I loved your post. Great perspective and food for thought. Thanks!

I will have a little basket with things like season's best cookbooks, paring knives, rubs, etc. If they hit $150 the previous month and attend the meeting they will get a pick from the basket. At least that's what I am thinking about doing.
