Finally Fall!

We're nearing my one-year anniversary with 31, and let me say that it has been an amazing journey! When I made the decision to join 31 Gifts I never imagined how much it would bless my life and my family. My team is always growing, and it looks like I will most likely be doing my DIQ(Director in Qualification) next month. I didn't set specific promotion goals when I first joined 31 but seeing how quickly my upline directors made their promotions made me want to aspire to be more than just a consultant. Right now my downline total is 9, I have 8 personally enrolled consultants and one of my consultants has her first recruit!

I love the amazing journey the first year has taken me on and I can't wait to see what happens my second year!

Fall 2011 Catalog

Well, the new fall catalog is officially here!!! :)

I brought home 25 from National Conference and now only after being home only a week I only have one left! But I also have four parties in the works, so yay for me!! I'm hoping to have a busy fall.

National Conferene

Here I come!!!! I can't wait to go to Ohio in two weeks for the 31 National Conference. I know it is going to be a great time meeting tons of other 31 Consultants, Directors, Executive Directors and above. I also get to tour the home office and see how everything works from the customer service department to assembling and personalizing orders. I'm signed up for four or five seminars as well which I'm also excited about. According to the home office, consultants who go to national conference end up getting a 60-70% increase in business and sales due to the things they've learned at conference. So I am really excited to go and of course help my consultants and ladies in waiting jump start their business as well!

I'm leaving Wednesday morning-July 13th-and driving straight there. Well I'm stopping in Ankeny to pick up another consultant and then we're making the estimated 10.5 hr drive in one day. The lady who is riding with me only needs a ride out there, which is perfect because I'm stopping in Urbana, Illinois for the night on the way home to stay with Amanda and Greg. So I am really looking forward to this trip! Oh and of course going to conference means getting free stuff and being able to buy things only available at conference! I can't wait!

Dream Rewards 2011

I am so thankful and appreciative of my amazing hostesses and customers that have helped me earn a $1000 Best Buy Gift Card this year! Now I just need to decide what I want to spend it on!!! =P

May Bookings Needed!

Hey there followers! If any of you have been thinking about hosting a party, May is the month to do it! The hostess benefits are way better than any other month! Here's a quick example, if your party sales are from $350-499, you'll get the benefits of a $500-749 party! So you'll get to step up to the next level of benefits, which is an amazing deal! And the customer special is good too, for every $31 they spend they can get a mini zipper pouch for just $2.31! So take advantage of these amazing deals and book a party now!

April-Almost Booked!

I've now got two parties booked for April, so I'm almost full. If anyone wants to host a party now is a good time to contact me because May and June are going to be harder months for me to schedule since it's planting season. But I am so thrilled that I've had such great luck booking parties! And I still have at least one person at every party who says to me, "I had never even heard of 31 Gifts before I got invited to this party. This stuff is so cute/fun, I want everything!" Hearing people say that literally makes my day! My party sales have been awesome, just closed two more $500 parties today!

On another note, I am so excited for the recruiting ban to be lifted because I have one person who is really interested and said she'll probably sign up. And I have another person who is semi-interested but I'm pretty sure I can convince her to sign up as well. I'm totally shooting to be a director by the end of the year! I can't wait!

March Madness

Well, I survived the five parties in ten days. One was amazing, over $1000 in sales! A couple others weren't quite as successful but still did good. I was thrilled with my overall February sales and am hoping to match them this month! I've got two parties that I'm almost ready to close right now, and then I have a catalog party to close this weekend or early next week. And then next Thursday will be my last party this month, so it'll be nice to have the last part of the month off and not be rushing to enter a party at the last minute. Then April 1st I have a party so I'll be starting off with the parties right away in April!

One thing I want to mention is that my sponsor Mandi finally got her promotion to Director this month! Yay! I'm so happy to be a part of such an amazing company and have such great leaders to look up to!
