Hi there! I recently had a friend very concerned about the fact the I am not set up as an LLC (limited liability company). His concern was more about if someone sued me after a show due to food poisoning, etc. While it would be completely unlikely - he said it could happen and I should at...

I was getting ready to place a supply order when I really looked at the booking info (audio) on supply order. I was wondering if anyone had any of them? Your thoughts? Are they worth the money? Did they help you? I'm looking at "Booking Strategies from the Pros", "Bookings Galore", and...

Tonight was our "pig fest" at our cluster meeting. We spent a lot of time discussing how we made the recipe, the total value of all the products, and what we did different from the recipe to "upsell." I was one of the last presenters and gave my outline of how to make the Satay Chicken Pasta...

I closed a show for a host this past week. She had two friends who were going to book, and they both changed their minds. I just got a call from another friend of hers who was out of town, but wanted to book, she just didn't get any of our voice mails. We both feel awful. I would love to figure...
