I know this is crazy to do, but I have been in my office and on the phone all day making reminder calls for my open house. I was going to wait till thurs. b/c I had 10 people call and say no and not wanting to order. I got on the phone today and 10 people are coming!!!!! I encouraged everyone to bring 2 friends if they are able. I am now looking forward once again to my open house!

So my advise to you all GET ON THE Phone, even if you leave a message at least you tried. The open house gave an invite to call and re connect with people:)
 
Congrats on all your calls!!! What a great feeling!!! Good Luck with your Open House!!:)
 
If only I had that kind of motivation. I really need to get back on that phone!
Good luck on your show!
 
In my pre-PC life I worked for a company that taught sales training. It was not uncommon for our clients to REQUIRE their sales reps to make a minimum of 50 cold calls a day. Could you imagine? That's 250 cold calls a week!!!! I could never! I always think of that when I'm working on my 3 contacts a day!I'm so impressed with your 100 calls! Great job!!!!!
 
Great job on your calls!! Good luck at your open house, let us know how it goes!!
