    Right Toddler Group replied and date nearly confirmed for that.

    4 people have asked me for details in the last few days about joining, 2 I sent info packs too, 2 I haven't got an email address for yet so not holding out much hope of getting one.

    One of the ladies I emailed though I know has been contacted by someone else too although after me, just have to hope if she does want to go ahead she stays with me.

    I really need to learn more patience...... I get so excited about them joining and then get really annoyed when no reply!!! :cool::o:rotfl:

    I suppose they could just be busy.....:p

    Right..... I need to forget about Usborne for a couple of days.... getting a bit too obsessed with people not getting back to me, saying No is fine I just like closure! :o

    I meant to post this in January though.

    My Usborne goals for this year are to make £2k profit..... achievable I think......

    And to recruit 2 people...... even if hundreds wind me up by saying no!

    Will look back this time next year and see if I managed both.....

    There are so many other companies i.e younique, forever living etc all messaging the same people though I am not sure they will lead to anything..... :o

    I think Usborne sounds a bit more practical though, the beauty products people can live without but books are a staple and every LO needs good quality ones. I hope your recruits get back to you soon!

    I think I need to give up on recruiting for now and just see what happens..... I ended up messaging one lady to see if she had gotten a chance to read my emails and did she have any questions etc.... hate seeing a read receipt and being ignored!!! Ha Ha.

    Seriously though getting a bit obsessed..... must stop.

    Got 3 events on this week though, hopefully I will sell some bits!

    Becky if you ever want to join just shout :rotfl:

    Looks like the other school that was a possibility should be going ahead with a sponsored read too..... and I might.....might get my inheritance cheque this week..... though I have been saying that for 2 months now!

    Credit card 0% runs out at end of the month so I really could do with it now! :o

    It will mean we will be able to survive for another few years of me not working (apart from Usborne!) and do up the house to hopefully sell.

    I will put it to good use to make my Nan proud :):(:)

    Just got to work out where to put it all now, current accounts and regular savers are the first option i think.
