Director Promoting FDs: Ideas to Refresh Your Memory

She told me that the thorns represent the obstacles you will face on your journey to success and that the tight bud will come into bloom as your business grows.

I can't recall what we did in my cluster to promote FDs??? It's been a while. I can't ask my (former) AD because she is now ignoring my emails (so mature...).

I know for $15k in sales we do red green and blue balloons (blue = sky's the limit, green = $, red = you're on fire) and the silver whisk charm...
What the heck did we do for FDs???

Anyone remember what I have talked about doing in the past or have an idea that I can start implementing from here forward?:confused:
 
could do a red apron with there name on it--
 
For FD's, our cluster does a presentation of roses (or just an arrangement of a few) with a poem that tells what the parts of the rose represent. I don't have the poem. Maybe someone here does.

Hmmm - I like the sound of this - anyone have the rose poem?

Our upline does the red apron for directors too. I gave my FD's a red PC mug. I still have 2 for future FD's - then I don't know...

I can tell you after conference! My SED does something like that for newly promoted directors. The only part I can remember is that she leaves the thorns on the roses to represent the obstacles that you will overcome. I know there is something about beauty too (of the biz).
 
This is what my director sent me--looks like two versions.> Here are a couple of versions:
>
> The long stem symbolize the longevity of your new career with the
> Pampered Chef
> The thorns on the stem, the obstacles that you may face, but can
> overcome.
> The green leaves, the monetary gain you will receive with your new
> business.
> And last, but not least, the tight bud will open and come into full
> bloom in time, just as your new career.
>
> This rose represents your business. The stem represents the longevity
> your business can have, the leaves represent possible income
> opportunities and the thorns represent the bumps in the road that you
> might face. Just like water and sunlight help this rose to bloom,
> bookings, host coaching, recruiting and coaching will make your
> business bloom.
>
> I've been using these poems as a way to introduce and welcome our new
> consultants at our cluster meetings. I get 1/2 dozen roses at Aldi
> for $2.99! Such a deal - and everyone really likes the ceremony!

That's exactly what my Director does for our team for new consultants.

Hmmmm...now you've gopt me wondering if I should do this for NEW consultants and find something different to do for FDs? Any ideas?

That's the one, I knew each part of the rose had a meaning. Our SED does this at the Exec banquet. Last year I roomed with her and was helping her tie ribbons and baby-breath on the roses. I started snapping off the thorns and she almost panicked (I had only done a few thorns thankfully).
