Scatty,
I'd be happy to tell you about CTMH. I did a lot of research before I joined and one of the main reasons I chose CTMH was that we are allowed more freedom in how we conduct our business than some of the other companies. As a CTMH consultant, we can both advertise and sell online and now have shopping carts on our websites. We can also run national mag ads...I have one running now.
Our quarterly quota is $300 to stay an active consultant. An active consultant gets a 22% commission at the time of sale. Also, the following month we receive an override check on any sales over $99. That percentage is based on the amount of sales and can range from 1.5% to 12%. As mentioned, if you can't make the $300 quota, you may drop to a Jr. and still get a 10% discount/commission. Once you have a $300 quarter, you are automatically an active consultant again.
Should a health emergency or something critical along that line come along, you can request a Critical Status exemption for the current quarter. You will stay an active consultant with all the same benefits. Once that quarter is over, you are still an active consultant with nothing extra that you have to purchase. You are where you were when you went into critical status. Should you need another quarter, you may request and it will be reviewed.
As of January 1st, we now have a rewards program called Rewards your Way. Based on sales, we have the opportunity to earn points towards free merchandise, a Sony Cybershot, Epson photo printer, Brighton jewelry, extra cruise points, free website for a year, an Ipod and more. This is going to be so much fun.
We also have a program called Straight to the Top where you may earn free merchandise in the first 30, 60 and 90 days as a consultant.
We get a ton of support from corp. They've instituted a program called Workshops on the Go where they design workshops and sell the merchandise to do them in bulk at a commissionable price. There are also Make and Takes and Create and Takes. The consultant artwork bulletin board is full of wonderful ideas. The consultants are all very friendly and share with their fellow consultants. Corp listens to what we'd like, and, when possible, institutes our ideas. We had been asking for the 1x1 blocks to be sold in bulk so that we can give them away with our incentive stamps. So, at Leadership last week it was announced that they will now be available.
Feel free to email me if you have any questions.
Suz
CTMH Director
