I have one show left to submit and will be closing that on Wednesday. I am currently at $4231. I am thrilled to make $3000 level as I have been just over $1500 the past 3.

Yah! Way to go!
 
I'm at $2800+ right now and have two cattys and one show left for the month. I will make my $3000 goal. I am so excited since this is my first SAT!!!!!
 
I made it to $3700 with 3 show so I'm thrilled to have earned level 3. Hope there are some great new products in January!!!

I have 6 shows to submit between now and the end of the month - 5 of them are cooking shows, and 1 catalog show.

With what I have for them now, I should close out the month around $5000. Not as good as last year, but I'm happy with it. Life is much crazier for me this year than last, so I feel like I did well.
 
I closed a Show today at $408! That puts me at $1580 with 4 catalog shows and Black Friday Sales to go! WOOHOO! I would love to have $3,000 by November 30th!
 
right now I am sitting at 4541 and I have 3 cooking and 1 catty show to still close. I probably wont make my 6k though. I can only wish.

Hey Susan - that's awesome!! I'm finishing my month at $1953 for which I'm thrilled - only had 3 shows (and one was under $200 total) and a handful of outlet orders as well. Just happy to get some products for free. Looking forward to when you move out our way Susan!:)
 
I am like $800 shy of $7,000 - with one Show left with a VERY UNMOTIVATED Host. I will get on the phone tomorrow, plus send out an Outlet Email - I would LOVE to hit $7,000 but am NOT gonna get stressed over it. I should have easily hit it considering the number of Shows I did - but had 3 REALLY unmotivated hosts this month.....
 
I'm at $1350 one catalog show left, but it sounds like that might run over into December. I'm hopeful that I'll get to the $1500 goal! It's still my first 30 days, so it would be really awesome to meet that SAT goal and get the PC bucks!!

I have a fundraiser pulling in right after the 1st, so it should push me over for an extra spring product for December.

I have a question: can I just order the $150 difference between where I'm at and the $1500 SAT goal? Or does the order have to be from someone else?

I don't know the honest answer about what you make for commission on orders that you place in YOUR name. I have always just put it the name of someone in my family.

hmmm...........
 
I'm at $5270, with 4 more shows to close.
 
Well I'll just have DH have a show then, haha.

If he buys $150 himself, does he get the host discount, too? Because I'd love a 60% off Deep Covered Baker. I have $150 in holiday gifts to buy, too, so it's not exactly cheating.
 
I'm at $4037 with 3 more shows to close. My 3 shows total 831.59 right now...All 3 shows would have to increase their sales by $377 each for me to reach the $6000 level. I'm good with the $3000 level but I'm still hopeful!:D
 
My Saturday show closed last night over $600. With the show I'll be closing this evening (which was $509 when I left her house), I'll be well over the $3,000 mark. Made my goal!Now I'll be putting my Black Friday sales in December with my Holiday Host Raffle and my Dec 6 expo. I'm shooting for $1,500 so I can get my PC Dollars. :)
 
Wow! Everyone's on fire!!! Way to go, Cheffers. PC better be ready to give lots of products away! ;)

I'm at 2,018 so far and have 2 shows left to close. One is at $300 with more orders to come, and another is only at around $50, but will get it to qualify by the weekend. So, it's not looking good for me, but I'm happy with whatever I earn...anything free is good!! :)
 
I have submitted $823 so far, which was my Mystery Host Catalog show. I will be closing 2 shows today, but don't expect them to be more than $200-$300 each. I have one last show on Nov. 29th, and I am not sure if we will close out on the 30th or not. I have a couple of MIA catalog show hosts, but not holding my breath for them.

I think that sounds good. Then YOU get a bit of Host Benefits!

I told my late November host that we MUST close on the 30th in order for her guests and her to get the stoneware deals...this worked!
