Well I have one recruit prospect that has stood me up 3 times for her show. NOw she did show up for the biz opp meeting I set up but all of the times we have tried to do a show she has postponed and cancelled on me. And only told me when I was attempting to do host coaching - Never proactive...

So I was at one of my last PC parties last night, and my hostess was finishing cleaning up some glass shards from when she broke a glass before I arrived. When I was setting up my display, I took my Trifle bowl out of my Show to Go, and broke the pedestal by letting it accidentally clank up...

I am new and haven't got into the swing of things yet. I was wondering what everyone does at shows. Meaning do you use the fill in order blanks, outside order forms, or take laptop along print reciepts later? Right now I take the laptop along and have guest fill in the order form. Then I can...

but hopefully it will get better! I'm doing a HWC Fundraiser, and was planning on closing tomorrow. We're starting to pack for our move and I really didn't want to do a show at the house (it's a mess right now!), so I decided to do a catalog show instead. Now I'm starting to regret it - BIG...

So I have a recruit who is waiting to sign his agreement. I told him last Monday to sign up through my site and wait for his kit. I was then scheduled for a meeting Friday night at 7. He did not order his kit, he wanted to wait until I was with him on Friday to do the deed. No problem. Friday...

A little background: people around here earn less than they would in America, they may earn £1 for every $1 someone in the same job in the States would, however things cost as much or more. A lot of people won't come to PC parties here because they're "too expensive". Far more problems with...

I KNOW I've seen this recipe somewhere on here, but it's not coming up in any searches. :confused: I think you use pizza/pasta sauce, and pour it on the bottom of a baker, fill the baker with biscuits and bake it...something like that Anything? I want to make something easy, yummy, cheap...

I have a customer who is asking for some small boxes that we used to carry that held baked goods (for gifts). Has anyone heard of them? Before you ask ('cause I thought the same thing...), YES, she's sure it's PC (aren't they all!?!?) and NO, it's not tupperware. Anyone? Anyone?? Thanks...

I was reading some funny things on another thread and thought it would be fun to have a thread dedicated to the wacky things that happen to us or at our shows... For me the funniest was this last fall I did a show for repeat host and her husband (They are the nicest people in the whole...

I need to get things kicked into gear again! I use to do 8 shows a month and now I have 2 for this month and 1 for next month. I don't know what has gone wrong or where it went wrong. I know the economy is AWFUL in this area. We just had 2 more large shops close down. Any suggestions?

What's everyone doing to get motivated for 2007 and the new year? I feel like I'm in a slump with no January parties booked. How do you get people motivated for parties in January when most are too tired from their holidays and a little too strapped for cash?? I want to focus on fun and...

I was just wondering when I should expect to receive the things I ordered at conference? I was in WAVE 1 and ordered from Nancy's Artwork. I thought for sure we would have received it by now!:(

My sister, who lives and works in Chicago, suggests these activities while at National Conference: If you want to see how the other half lives, walk along the Magnificent Mile--a mile (or so) of all the glitzy shops you can think of. Good window shopping. Also, Navy Pier is a fairly close cab...
