    How Do You Overcome Not Knowing Many People When Starting a New Business?

    Hi all, I know everyone has heard this one! How do you respond? I also didn't know many people when I started (I was a homebody). To be honest, I've been doing this for over 4 years and have never been consistent with my show schedule - and I attribute it to having a slow start. How do you...

    Hosting a Fun Evening Open House for Moms and Kids

    I'm doing a show with a group of Girl Scouts - any suggestions on cooking with older kids, say 12 years old? Nothing too difficult, but more advanced than just cut n seal sandwiches (which I've done with 8 year olds). TIA!!

    Help With Murder Mystery Docs I Have!!

    Hi all, A while back, I found MM docs that looked good. Not having a MM show before, i just saved it to my files and didn't think about it again. Well, now I have a hostess who wants to have a MM show - at the show I met her at, we did the Chic Ench Ring. So I don't want to do the...

    Wasn't Sure Where to Put This....

    I've sold several of these lately - I didn't know it was on backorder until after I submitted it. I got the email from HO, "Your recently submitted show has items on backorder..." I wonder if the latest update of P3 now gives you the little "error" ! when you enter it?

    What Strategies Boost Confidence in Overcoming Recruiting Challenges?

    I'm with Rae... I have no problems offering the opportunity (I mean, I see what a great company it is and what it has done for so many people - who WOULDN'T want to try it??). My biggest obstacle is getting people to actually SIGN - even the ones who say yes!!

    Ready for Success? How Long Does it Take to Get a Starter Kit?

    I loved the idea they gave at Leadership - it went something like this" Once a lead decides to sign, the 2 of you look at her calendar. Have her highlight 6 dates in the next 2-3 weeks she wants to work (not counting the week you are in). At that time also schedule her "Grand Opening" show...

    Create Healthy Homemade Pet Food with PC Tools: Delicious Doggy Cookie Recipe

    I think it's a good idea, but you may just want to stick with doggie treats. I say that because as a kitty momma myself, I've looked into making his food - it's not an easy task. There are so many vitamins and supplements involved that are needed to make it truly healthy for them. Yes, you can...

    Would You Show Up to a Host's House Without a Confirmation Call?

    It always amazes me how some people don't respect others' time (not returning phone calls, emails, etc). I had a host once who didn't return any of my calls (I did speak with her about 2-3 weeks before and we mentioned a recipe) or emails - I assumed the show was off since I never heard back...

    Unreachable Host - Won't Close!

    Hi all, I had a show on March 30th (yes.. over 2 weeks ago) that I still haven't closed out. The host was supposed to close out that Thursday after her show. I called, left message. I have called and emailed at least 6 times since then - nothing. I've left the "your friends are waiting for...
