Navigating Leadership When You're a Consultant - My Story

In summary, Ann is worried that she can't go to Leadership because one of her gals went inactive and last year she was in a similar boat but then one of her gals reactivated. Her NED said she should call her back so she's nervous.

cheering you on Ann. But I do know how frustrating it can be when the people in your group don't follow through. You can always attach a few loose orders you collect over the next couple of days to hers.

I got a good Christmas present yesterday. My recruit who was collecting orders called and said that she thought she had enough to reactivate. She's going to submit them today or tomorrow. Now I'm on pins and needles until they show up in my IPT.

My recruit just called. Her order had been tied up because she switched to P3, and it didn't include sales tax. But she got it corrected. It's not showing up in my IPT yet, but

I'm going!!
 
  • #61
Yeah Ann! I'm so excited for you!

and me too! It just wouldn't be the same without you there.
 
  • #62
I SO WISH WE WERE GOING THIS WEEK!!!!

And I totally knew it would work out for you! You can't not be at Leadership!!!!

I'm doing a happy dance for you... in the privacy of my own home... I don't dance in public... even if it is the happy dance. It's scary and makes children cry. But I'm doin' it for you Ann!!!!

If it'll make you feel better Ann, ask her to send you a screen shot from her P3 showing the Date Time Group for submitting the show. This way you don't have to agonize over the HO delay. :)
And I'm doing the happy dance for you too...it ain't pretty, but I'm dancing. :)
