OK, I know that everyone on here has occassionally done this, but I can't resist!! For the past year and a half, I have been struggling, going active and inactive, not really getting any sales, keeping myself active with purchases in other people's names, etc.
Well I had the idea/guts to ask the SFA at my daughter's school about a fundraiser and they said YES!. It has been going on for the last month, I will be submitting it on Sun. Right now, the show total is at 2200+ !!! only 4 of the 20+ families have given me any orders. This is a private school so I am expecting some more orders!! One lady called me this morning with a cookware set order (7 pc. plus saute, total 482+)!!! I am in shock!!! I did a show on Sat and so far it is 600+ and she has 5+ more people to place orders, and there is cookware there too!!
I have never had a 1000 show before. I can't believe my luck!!! My fundraiser could grow quite a bit more (fingers crossed) and so could my other show. Talk about getting a new found energy for the biz!!! I only have 715 points right now. But I am so excited that I may actually have a chance at the cookware!!!
Ok, I have gloated enough... I just had noone to really call, that wasn't involved in these shows and I had to tell someone!!!
If I can do this, anyone can.. Last night, I had given out 10 catalogs to complete strangers. Even if they just leave the catalog laying around (hotel, gas station, store) someone may see it, and get my website!!! If anyone is struggling, just bite the bullet, and go out of your comfort zone, it is sooooo worth it!!
