There were 13 guests and sales were $1500.00 And the host order was $400.00. Talk about BIG SPENDERS Wish all shows could be like that!!

:thumbup: :thumbup: That is sooooo exciting! Congratulations! We want show details (recipe, what you brought to show, what did they buy alot of?)!!!

My average order is about $65. Catalog show orders not so great. But sometimes you get lucky.

I didn't do a demo, and I just did a big table of SA and the host filled everything up with snacks. Then I just passed around a our stoneware, cookware, knives and shears. Just about everyone purchased the kitchen shears, a stoneware pce., scrapers and bamboo.

I'm sorry, I need clarification. Rennea, you say you didn't do a demo, but had a huge table of SA. What is SA? I've been up since 4am and I'm not getting that. I'll probably feel stupid when you answer, but I'll ask anyway...

Thanks.

SA = Simple Additions

 

[maughlinsmith]

Yep, I feel stupid. But thanks...

No need to feel stupid... really. There are a number of times I just can't figure out the letter shortcuts either... I just plod along and usually somewhere along the way it gets slapped upside my mind, which hasn't been too sharp lately so as it is. LOL... the other day, I for the life of me couldn't figure out PWS... I've figured it out since then but no worries... you're not the only one.

There's a thread someplace with a lot of the abbreviations. Check out this one: http://www.chefsuccess.com/f18/what-does-hwc-mean-15090/

The one that really stumped me for a long time was DPDS......couldn't figure it out!


Door Prize Drawing Slip......duh! But - I don't use them - so they just weren't in my frame of reference.
