I had an incredible time at my booth on Saturday. I was nervous at first, because it was held outside of a nursing home/village place. But they had it well set up, attracted lots of the general public. It was a free event and very well done.I ended up with 3 bookings right off the bat, and 5 more possible hosts! I have a couple people who want to get my newsletter, and one man placed an order for a FC! :) I also had one lady who had never heard of PC and was so impressed and excited about everything! She is a potential host and recruit. :) Then at the end, I had a weird experience with another lady who asked all the questions that implied interest in joining, I already made a post earlier about that one.So, as it stands right now for November, I have 7 cooking shows and 3, possibly 4 catalog shows! I hope I can keep it all organized and do a good job. My husband is in shock that I'm going to be so busy. November is also crazy because 2 of my kids have birthdays. Wish me luck that I get through it well. And I really hope all these work out and hold and that I'll get bookings off of them. I'm so excited to be growing my business. :)
 
good for you Amanda~remember that the key to a good show is in the host coaching! Get them on board early to make their show a success!
 
Amanda, Great job!!! My biz has really picked up this Fall, and I am finding that the key is to be organized!!!! With so many shows on the calendar, you really need to be organized, which helps in not feeling so stressed.
 
Congrats to you! Way to work your business...:)
