MY FIRST $1000.00 show!!!!!!:love:

I just got home, she had 22 people there!!!!! Sales right now are at $905.00 and she has about 5 more orders out!!!!:eek:

I lost my voice though trying to talk over everyone to find the person to total their order with them. They were all drinking wine, laughing and having a great time.

I kept my demo really, really short because I knew if I talked to long I would have lost them.

Will let you know the finally tally in a couple of days!!

I knew if I didn't keep it brief I was going to loose them. It was hard enough just getting their attention to start!!!

Even with my demo short a few starting chatting and I knew I needed to wrap it up quick!

Way to go! Make sure you get the host excited about hitting that high, she'll work harder to get orders.
 


Congratulations Kelly on your first $1000.00 show! That is such an amazing accomplishment and I am so proud of you. It sounds like you had a fantastic time with your host and guests. I can only imagine how hard it must have been to keep up with everyone's orders and keep the party going, but it sounds like you handled it like a pro. I can't wait to hear the final tally and hear all about the success of your show. Keep up the great work and keep on cooking! You are an inspiration to us all. Happy selling! :chef:
