Struggling to Keep My Biz Going

In summary, the person is struggling to book shows and recruit in their business. They are advised to reach out to their current contacts and focus on booking shows first before worrying about recruiting. The key is to use the phone to make out-of-the-box calls and not give up on trying to reach the two hosts they are currently trying to contact. They are also encouraged to book shows for Help Whip Cancer and showcase the DCB to fill up their calendar. The importance of not giving up and staying positive is emphasized.

The wonderful thing about this business is that you can absolutely pick it up when you need to. The phone IS your friend!!!! I see that you've been doing PC for a year now, so you are bound to have a plethora of contacts. Start with customer care/out-of-the box calls to those people. See how they are liking their products, do they need any other items, would they like a catalog, would they consider helping you by hosting a catalog or cooking show, etc. Those kinds of calls are always worth-while. As for the 2 hosts that you are trying to get ahold of, don't give up hope.....but don't put all of your eggs in one basket either. Meaning you don't want to waste all of your time and energy on something that may not pan out for you. It's still very, very early in May and there IS plenty of time to book shows towards the end of the month. Encourage people to book for Help Whip Cancer.......or simply to showcase the DCB with fast, yummy and budget-friendly meals. Get your calendar filled up first, THEN worry about recruiting. Still continue to ask, but don't make that your focus until your calendar is where you want it. Don't stop making the calls until you are booked out as far as you want. Personally, I've got bookings all the way into November already. That's future business baby!!!! Just hang in there and keep your chin up and PICK UP THE PHONE!!!!! You can do it!!
 
It sounds like you're feeling frustrated and unsure about your current situation with the cooking show and your sales. It can be tough to navigate the ups and downs of the business world, but it's important to stay positive and keep pushing forward. Have you tried reaching out to the two people through different methods, like email or social media, in case they are not available by phone? It might also be helpful to brainstorm other potential opportunities or ways to boost your sales in the meantime. Don't give up, keep persevering and things will eventually work out. Good luck!
