Great News at Thirty One!

[Leanne McGarr]

We had our weekly Director's Call this morning and I wanted to share. I am sure many of you heard about the layoffs from last week. The layoffs were to keep our company lean and strong.

Here are some stats that were shared this morning!

February 1st was the launch of our new Spring Catalog. It was the largest 1st Day of February in our company's history! We had over 1 MILLION dollars in sales on the first day!

The Avg. amount that a guest spends is more on Avg. than last year. Guests are buying higher priced products than last year too. We are having productive parties.

We have doubled # of Consultants since last year Feb ’10. (this was right before the recruiting freeze so that means basically we have doubled in size from July 2011 until now!)

I just wanted to alleviate any concerns that 31 was not a thriving and growing company. Our company continues its wave of growth and expansion. I am very excited for my future with 31! Now that we are having 3 catalogs per year, even better! Having 3 seasons (spring, summer and Fall) will keep our product line updated and fresh.!

Thanks!
Leanne

Thanks for sharing Leanne! Thirty-One is definitely growing! They just 'right-sized' to fit the demand and the new technology.

I have certainly (as a consumer) been hearing more and more about 31. I know 2 people in my town that sell. I'm glad to hear the numbers are going up, it certainly looks that way from what I see as a customer too. I hope that the business just explodes like crazy and 31 can call back the people laid off. Sounds like thats where it is headed! Congrats.
