This Is What Kept Me From Being Here The Past Days

The past two weeks has been a busy week for me, because I finally decided to be a dealer of a local company's products aside from having lots of works at the office. I was actually being recruited to be a dealer long time ago,by a batchmate who owns a branch in another province but I kept putting it aside. But not when two weeks ago, when I went to our hometown to visit my parents and sisters. I saw that they are all using the fabric conditioner and the laundry soap of this company. Thus, I registered. With their brochure , I was able to have orders worth more than 9,000 pesos or $180. I got 25% discounts from that amount. Not bad for a newbie like me and my batchmate was surprised I was able to generate orders that big, as a first timer. I can’t believe it too, when I finally had all the sales tabulated in Excel and it produced that amount when I clicked auto-sum. I had to even use the calculator to be sure. But I miss you all here, so I set aside that for the time being.

Yes, I realized that. But I am happy I still have myLot to be my site for relaxation. I come here to relax my mind from my job when everything is already finished.

I realized that too. I guess, I have a convincing ability. Though, I want to rest a while from that too. This site is my relaxation place. I love to interact with all of you here.

I am not at PL anymore. After finally having able to get my more than $25, I quit there. They seem to have a deceiving tactic of paying the members. They give a certain required rating for your writing and interaction there. If you haven't reached that, you cannot withdraw it. So, when their required rating based o the average rating of all members went down, I was able to withdraw and never came back. I give them a two installment payment- one month, because anyway PL give me a 36 day credit also.

Congratulations, did you reached that amount selling to relatives? This is a good sale figure.

@LadyDuck I think that is understandable. But the next ones would be lesser because what they bought aren't fully consumed yet.

@SIMPLYD This is what I thought. When I was very young, for about one year I sold beauty products. The first order was a huge because I sold to all my friends and to my relatives.

I keep praying I will always will. I am resting for a week from selling because I would like the others to pay me on the 15th half of what they ordered before I show them the new brochures and promo brochures. And I hope to find at least 5 recruits so I can have rebates from their sales and be given a check for that every 16th. I am contemplating as to who I will recruit. They have to be good sellers and talkers too.

Thank you. Yes, it is like that. I get a 25 percent discount from the orders. Thus, they pay me full but I pay their order less than 25%, when they pay me already. Then, if I can recruit at least 5 sales dealer, I will be promoted and can earn rebates from their sales. I hope I can find at least 5 within 3 months from now.

@SIMPLYD Oh, I see... Yes, it sounds like direct selling marketing... I've been approached so many times to be a dealer of such in the past, but I'm just not a very good sales person at all. Good luck to you!

I hope I can always get a big sale. Hopefully this month, I will get again a sale as big as that. Also, I am being encouraged to recruit at least 5 dealers, so I can also have rebates from their sales and get a check for that every month. I am still trying to think who amongst my friends working at offices can be my recruits and have a niche in their office, where to sell the products of Personal Collection. Have you heard of it?
