I have been invited to be a part of a "End of Summer Shopping Event". Pretty much its a multiple vendor show at a Cookie Lee reps apartment clubhouse. I am using it as my "Tasting Event" and titling invites that way. I think more people will be intrigued to come - see items being retired, check out the new catty, taste new recipes!
Well, its about 40 min away from my house so I wanted to have another event so more people have a chance to come, in case thats too far for them. The problem is that the ONLY time and date avail is the morning before the Shopping Event! The shopping event is the 30th 3-5 pm.
I was thinking about doing my other event at my house 10-1. Am I being overly ambitious??? What do you think the turnout would be if I made it 9-12? I have to take into account that I would have to make 2 sets of the recipes (was going to do 4); have my setup broken down and in my car at 1 or 1:30 ready to go to the next place. Plus I would have my 2 kids at home in the am (3 and 1 yr).
I REALLY want to do 2 shows - I have lots of customers spread all throughout the metroplex and wanted to give several options for them to come.
Maybe I should do two recipes in the am (brunch type stuff) and two in the pm (appetizer type).
Hmmmm........ decisions, decisions.......
