Book Your Next Party and Earn Credit: The Case of a Rude Potential Hostess

[Chef_2_Four]

I had a lady at my first show for June say she was interested in a show. Her sisters had already both booked a show. Well I called her 2 times trying to get ahold of her and left a message, explaining that if she wanted to book a show to call me so her mom would get the credit for it. She never called me back so the day I was closing the show I called her one last time. (there were days in between each phone call). Well she hung up on me as soon as she heard who I was! I talked to her mom and told well I tried calling so and so but the phone disconected if she wants to book a show tell her to call me. Her mom told me she decided not to have a show. Well she could have just told me that on the phone instead of being rude! Anyway it is really bothering me that she hung up on me. I thought about calling her and offering a 10% discount at her sisters show. What do you think? According to one of her sisters she wants to sign up to sell PC!! She can't even tell me she doesn't want to have a show! What would she do to a customer??? She is pregnant but I was never rude like that when I was pregnant!

You'd offer a 10% discount to someone who hung up on you?!!?!? As for her wanting to sign up - is this someone you'd want on your team?
I'd let sleeping dogs lie.

Let it go.... how would she run a business if she is so rude to hang up on you???

That is what I was thinking after I posted this. As for wanting to sell PC her sister said they both wanted to do it but do as one person as a team kinda thing. I never talked to her about it. Thanks ladies!

Debbie,
I think you should call the sister and talk to her about becoming a consultant, but don't acknowledge the one who hung up on you until she acknowledges you. You can't read her mind and we aren't in third grade. If she wants something or has a problem with something you shouldn't be hearing it from someone else. Unless she talks to you personally, she hasn't said anything.

I am still going to talk to her sister about being a consultant. It really hurt my feelings that she hung up on me! But I will get over it, I know that I can't take things personally. Her sister, Suzie, is the one that said THEY wanted to do it, so she may not have even talked to her sister about it.

No way would I offer a discount to someone who hung up on me...bless and release.

Some people are just plain rude and all you are doing is trying to be nice. Forget em! There's no reason for that. How dramatic! A simple "No thank you" would have suficed.
