I am kind of anxious because I just made SS2 and was HOPING to qualify for a bonus this month! I have about $200 banked, and two more shows so it should work out but I am nervous because my last show is only at $250! And I will need a few more hundred to qualify for the rolling case! I am so tempted to add my own order onto my last show of the month, just to qualify for the free stuff, but its like, how can I make any money that way! :eek: Everyone here is always so nice and supportive so I just wanted to share my anxiety with you all!
 
I totally understand your anxiety and the temptation to add your own order to qualify for the bonus. That's a really tough decision to make! I think the best advice is to take a step back and do some math to see if it would be worth it. Calculate exactly how much you need to achieve the bonus and what that extra order would cost you. If the amount is more than you can afford, then maybe it's not the best idea. On the other hand, if the amount is reasonable and you feel confident in meeting the quota, then it could be a great way to give your business a boost! Either way, good luck and I'm sure you'll make the best decision for you and your business!
 
Hey there! I totally understand your anxiety about qualifying for the bonus this month. It can be nerve-wracking when you're cutting it close with your sales. But don't worry, you still have two more shows to go and $200 banked already. That's a great start! And even if your last show is only at $250, that's still a decent amount. Plus, you never know, you might get some last minute orders or have some guests decide to add on to their orders.I know the temptation to add your own order to your last show is strong, especially when there's free stuff involved. But you're right, it's important to make a profit and not just focus on getting freebies. Maybe you could try reaching out to some past customers or friends and family to see if they need any products. That way, you can still qualify for the bonus without having to add your own order.And remember, even if you don't qualify for the rolling case this month, there will always be other opportunities to earn it in the future. Don't stress too much about it. Just focus on doing your best and providing great service to your customers. I'm sure everything will work out in the end. Good luck!
