I met Becky in Oct 2005. We chatted, said she's thought about doing this, but has a neighbor who is consultant and they've never talked about the opporutnity. To me that means the coast is clear.
I left a message in January 2006, then left two messages in July (yeah, I know, a big gap), one in August, one in Sept, and then I just left her a message this week. All along she has received my email newsletter and invites to special events (mystery host party, recruiting event).
For the heck of it today, I looked her up on host lookup. She hosted a show on 8/3/06! I missed her! If I would have stayed in touch....but then again her neighbor is a consultant.
So now do I take her off my list and not try to call her so regularly? I was calling her more for the opportunity than to host. Each time I left a message; we actually never spoke since we met in Oct 2005.
Stuff like this just frustrates me. But if my neighbor hosted with someone else, I know I'd be even more frustrated, so I do see the other side of things.
I guess I'm venting more than asking for advice. I'm sure you've all had something similar happen and it stinks.
