hi all
just a quick one
how often should i have contact with my asm?
she signed me up on the 19th dec and by the time all the paperwork was sorted started on c2 i am now on c5 (order due 5th march) but have only had one contact since joining and that was to give me my free books.
my orders for c2,c3 and c4 have been in the three hundreds so does she just assume im doing ok or should she be phoneing to check.

Mine signed me up 2 years ago, i got one phone call 6 months after that to ask why my order wasnt submitted (it was 7pm on night it was due and i was adding to it online) and then i got a Merry Christmas voicemail the day before Christmas Eve last year. Thats all the contact i've had with mine in 2 years so i hope yours is better than that.

No point asking me either - as you can see from my previous posts she isn't very reliable, & I can't get hold of her at all.

I'd say maybe she is just assuming that you are ok, but you would think she would ring/email to say congrats on doing so well!

Is anybody on here in area 343????

Yay my Mum's phoned part of her order up, and she was having some suncream....she hadn't noticed it was 2 for £8 or 3 for £10, so has ordered 2 which she's pleased with..... and I can get us some aftersun to make it 3 for £10! So I'm pretty pleased, every little helps so they say!

I must add I think my Mum realises this, but there also wasn't anything else she wanted! I'm making sure I give her lots of samples, and freebies when I get them though, she's being a star, taking a book into work with her and showing her friends (I've moved 40 miles away from the "nest"), and with it being half term (she works in a school) when I dropped the orders off before I went to work, she gave me a cheque for her amount, plus everyone elses order she would be delivering! Yay for my Mum lol!

It's alright, I wanted to see if I could find out if anyone had heard from the Area Manager for 343!

I'm not sure what the area codes mean either btw!:D

I can't wait to get signed up on Wednesday. Am I right in thinking that the lady will bring some brochures with her so that I can get started straight away? I've got Thursday and Friday off work next week and Monday off the week after so can really get stuck into it right away.

I'm going to buy a printer next week so I can do some newsletters to put in with the brochures, I've ordered some bags off Ebay and I'm going to buy some pens from Poundland to put in with the catalogues kind of in the place of free samples for the first campaign and then will order some samples to put in the next campaign's books.

sounds like you are really organised!!! Yeah, she should bring you some books when she comes. I got given 5 on the day I signed up, but she gave me another 40 about 2 days afterwards.

Did you want a territory or were you going to do just friends & family? If you wanted territory, it would be worth mentioning on the day, and say that you are off so could get started straight away - then hopefully you will be given your territory asap.

Thanks. When she called me to arrange a time, she asked me if I wanted some territory and has already put some aside for me. She seemed very keen for me to get going so hopefully will bring lots of books with her .
