I have a neighbor who lives 2 doors down. When we met she said she wanted to buy a stone. Then I gave her info and she said she thought about the business before. So I gave her biz info. Following up w/ her she said she wasn't sure if now was a good time. She's a realtor and was wanting to focus on that and step up her biz there. She said they couldn't afford the kit. I told her about the mini kit, host credit, earning back the money after just 3 shows, she still said no. But she wanted me to keep up with her and let her know of the deals and such to come.
Now, she is hosting a Power Cooking Kitchen show on Saturday. I host coached her so well, I was proud of myself for actually going through and touching on everything. I even brought up the business opportunity again. I reminded her about the kit credit and how any bookings I get could be hers to start her biz. She never really responded yea or nay to that. So I figured we are playing it by ear. See what kind of responses she gets from this hosting experience. Well, she didn't give me 40 names and I reminded her about inviting everyone, long distance and close. Friends, neighbors, co workers, etc.--gave her the 40 in 4 min. sheet. She had about 10 people that I mailed to and about 15 for the e-invitation.
Today she called and invited the kids and I over to play. While visiting, she said she only has 4 people coming. One outside order. I reassured her it's okay. I reminded her about making reminder calls and I offered to help her with those if she'd like.
When we were getting ready to go, her husband came home and she referenced the time and how she needed to get ready because she needed to get to a neighboring town to fill out a job application. She told me she's applying for a job as a front desk agent at a business.
So now what? I felt awkward. I didn't want to say, "Hey, what about PC?" I'm just wondering what is the best way to approach the subject on Saturday at her party. See, this is where I feel weird, because my hobby level status doesn't allow me to demonstrate first hand how the business can really help.
