How's May Sales, Bookings and Recruiting Going?

In May, one of my shows had two June bookings and the other had 3 June bookings. However, both of those hosts signed up as consultants (though I suspect one will be a kitnapper), so they got those shows! I'm excited they signed up (3 recruits total in May!) so that gives me double points and now I've 4 recruits total -- oh so close to director), but darn it --- I could

Looks like the e-bay poster is just a consultant leaving the biz. There is that bag from last year on there...that would be better for a man. Unfortunately my husband is not a fan of logo wear. I tried. I lost.

My May ROCKED! -- which I thought would set me up for a great SAT month. But I was wrong - I think I have 2 shows and 2 cattys :(
 
  • #61
Well, I ended up with

$5818+ commissionable sales (would have been over $6K, but I gave a cattie party to a sister Director ~ needed it for re-promotion)
1 recruit
Lowest HWC product sales in 7 years!

On to June...here I come SAT!
