Yipeee!!! I currently have three active so she makes #4.

I have four recruits also, and only one is qualified I just can't get them to get excited again, especially with the holidays here!

I would really like to know how everyone does that? I have a potential recruit right now, but I just can't find the words to get her to sign right now. She wants to wait until May since her baby is due. I wish she could just jump in now and be able to use her commissions on the baby.. I don't know how else to make her Jump Aboard.

For those of you asking what to say, what to do...

On your next supply order, buy the "Connections: Key to Recruiting" CD and workbook. Or if you ordered the supply booster when you started, you should already have it.

Register for every teleclass about recruiting. Talk to people in your cluster who are the top recruiters. Avail yourself of training opportunities through your NED (my NED has conference calls that she opens to her downline for those who want to step up).

BE INTENTIONAL ABOUT OFFERING THE OPPORTUNITY AT YOUR SHOWS AND DO IT CONFIDENTLY. Confidence is key. Then if anyone expresses interest, don't throw up on them. Don't give them tons of info to read or tell them how much you love PC. Let them take a catalog, maybe an Opportunity brochure and then SHUT UP.

Arrange a meeting with them. Get together for coffee or a coke. (I've had many a recruiting interview at the mall play area or playland McD's) Then ask them why THEY are interested in PC. SHUT UP AGAIN and LISTEN. Listen some more. Find out what their heart tug is and then zero in on it.

This biz is about relationships. You need to form a relationship with someone before they will feel comfortable joining you.

Those are my ramblings for 2 a.m.

It might just be better for her to wait. It might not be great for you right now, but she may do better if she waits until after the baby, which means you'll do better! I thought about starting before I got pregnant, decided not to when I found out I was, & then joined when she was 4 months old. I started off really well! Last Jan-July wasn't great, but not b/c of my baby. My recruiter started 3 months pregnant & had a hard time for about the first year. She said if she could do it differently, she would have waited. So she may do great joining now or may be better off waiting, who knows. But I wouldn't push her into anything b/c she'll be happier & probably stay longer if she joins when she decides the time is right. JMO!
