I think I'd like to do this, but I have an idea that I'd like to run pass everyone. I was already planning to host my own cooking show on 11/15. I'm inviting everyone I know and calling it "The Holiday Preview Show" (gift ideas and entertaining focused). What if I did the $1000 mystery...

WOW!!!!!! What an amazing idea that is!

Hi Y'all! Merrill has been on my nerves today. I purchased those recruitment & hosting business cards posters - not the personalized ones. So when I finally used the template off of their website today, the .pdf didn't line up. I have no idea how to fix it. Has any one had success with a...

I really like that!!! :thumbup: I've heard that with elevator speeches, you should be able to present a problem and show how you're the solution. I've just been saying that I teach people how to cook a great meal at home with tools that save time and effort. But I'm switching today...

Hi there! I'm a new consultant (still working to qualify) and I'm planning on throwing a big holiday show in November. I have ideas on what to do there, but I'm looking to use some items that I can't afford to buy yet, like the DCB, the three-tier stand, micro-cooker, and some SA plates. My...

It's been interesting for me to do this without my own car. Even living in Chicago I rent a car every time I have a show, which can be expensive for me because as I'm starting out, my commissions are equal to or less than my rental and gas. The only thing that honestly keeps me going in this...

I'm months behind on this post...but this post alone is worth the membership fee to the forum. Thank you so much!!!!!!!!!! --Akiba
