I am pretty new at the business (6 mos) and thought my booking leads had dried up last month and then I started to read all the great ideas here on Chef Sucess!!
I thought about that list of 100 and how I only talked to about 20 of those folks because I didn't want to be the "pushy consultant". Silly me!!!:rolleyes: I made some calls this week to get some summer bookings and have two shows booked and another host that needs to check her calendar first! I want to thank everyone out there for their fantastic posts-they are full of great ideas and encouragement and even give some of us a kick in the rear when we need it!
Here's to the next 80 on my list! You guys ROCK!:cool:
 
Glad we could be of help. Sometimes we all need a reminder to go back to the basics. Congratulations!
