    Great thanks, I need another £73 I think for MOV, is that right? I'm not expecting great things just yet as the territory I have used to be someone elses but she's suddenly given up. The ASM warned me that her customers might not place any orders until I've been around for a bit so we'll have to be patient!

  • If anyone is on C5 and wanting to order a foundation brush, then its on C4 as part of the Cynthia Rowley Gift set at the same price, £5 (includes make up bag & eyeshadow brush too). Code is 28555.

    If you're on a very late mailplan, you might want to order one from C5 too as a back-up to be sent back if not needed, since it's in the sale brochure ;) . At least with the stock indicators these days, you can check it in advance.

    I think it's like that in a lot of areas - I know when I was at home, we had lots of different reps over the years, and none of them ever did more than 2 campaigns! Never put us off ordering mind you, but I'm sure it would others.

    Yeah, MOV is £78 (I think it can vary on your area though not sure), and for the Higher amount of commission it's £148 (again might vary) - so if you get close, it might be worth ordering a few bits in order to get 25% commission as opposed to 20%

    I tried logging on the website this evening but it's saying that my date of birth isnt right?! I guess this means my details havent been uploaded yet then? I'm really keen to get started online and find my way around
    Liz I had exactly the same problem. I'm not sure if it's the way they're inputting them or the way the SL's are writing them down. They had mine as 28th Feb where it's actually 23rd... so could have been misread. But if you ring them (with the number on your letter) they should sort it over the phone and get you straight in. They did this with me then sent a letter for me to sign to confirm my date of birth...

    Well I'm certainly not going to give up after just 1 or 2 campaigns, that defeats the whole point of me doing this. I'm hoping that if I stick with it and show commitment I'll eventually get more territory.

    I would think that you should be able to get more territory - I'm trying to get some more houses, but what with the lady not turning up today.....!!!!!!!! Grrr!!!

    Anyway, I think a lot of people give up as they don't put much effort in, so therefore don't make a lot of money... plus I think a lot has to do with where you live. The "posher" areas (I wouldn't call my Mum & Dads posh, but they are larger detached houses) don't order as much from what people have said on here, whereas council areas order a lot. We live somewhere inbetween the two - not council, but not expensive houses either, and the orders were good :D

  • A bit off topic but wanted to share my good news. :D
    We had a call from the council today and they have allocated us a permant house (instead of bing in temp housing like we are now).
    We have a viewing on Tuesday but have been round for a sneaky look at it and the area today and........







    its looks lovely, 2 bed semi detached, large garden, front garden, primary school opposite, shops 4 doors down (and a pub) we really are in a state of shock at how lovely it looks. Just need to see the inside now. :D:D:D
