I made a goal at the beginning of November that I wanted $6000 in sales. That would be a first for me (my top month is $5200). Getting ready to submit my last show for November and I am at $5685.00. I would have made it had one show not cancel. DARN!!!!! Well, maybe next time:cry:
 
That's a bummer! You could always try a sale over the weekend!
 
Ooh, since you're that close, have you tried making calls to see if you can't come up with enough to do your own catty?
 
Great minds, Wadesgirl!
 
Do you have a website? Encourage outlet sales. Call everyone that purchased Simple Additions in the past, especially striped.

Call everyone that may want a stone at 20% off. If you REALLY want to do it offer a discount on all sales. You may not make a ton, but you'd get more free product.

Don't give up yet! Good job so far and good luck!

Of course!
 
Should have known. You're a smart girl. :)
 
I agree with the others....don't give up yet!! The month's not over. Outlet sales, your own catty show....all great ideas!!

You can do this!!!!!!!!!! :D
 
I encourage you to have a weekend sale. I took some ideas from the Black Friday thread in this forum and made out an e-mail last night. I'm running it starting today thru Saturday to try and get about 300-400 dollars to put me over the top of 6000 as well. Go for it!
