I have a "potential" host who booked a show from her sister's back in March. She scheduled for April, rescheduled for May, rescheduled for June, rescheduled for July and then finally in July decided to just do a catalog show. Every month it is something, "My daughter moved in with me," "I just moved," " house isn't ready". Pretty legit reasons, but waits until the day before the show and when I call her, she cancels. So she has "supposedly" been doing this catalog show for the last 2 months. Everytime I call her, "I haven't gotten around to it, I have been sick" or something else. I have sent her catalogs on multiple times along with order forms, host/guest special flyers every month, etc. (She lives more than an hour away.) I have spent enough time on this lady already for her not to respect me or my time. I told her 2 weeks ago that I would call her in 2 weeks and that is tomorrow. I want a tactful way to tell her "See Ya," because I know from the past 6 months that she is going to give me another excuse as to why she has not done anything for her catalog show. I don't want to be rude, because her family and friends have been great hosts/customers and don't want to step on anyone's toes. I just think that she is not a motivated person and she is never going to do anything. Sorry this is so long, but I could use some advice. Thanks. Hey, maybe she will surprise me and has lots of orders waiting for me.
