Celebrating my First $1000 Show in 3 Months: A Success Story!

[Kitchen Diva]

:sing:
I had my first $1000 show!!! It's actually a whopping 42 cents over a grand! I'm so excited! It only took 3 months and 2 weeks to do it, too.

I just had to share it with you guys- my cluster is for lack of a better word apathetic, so I am happy and knew you guys would know just how happy I am and would be happy for me!

Whoo-hoo! I'm only $8470 from my $15,000 in sales to get my 2% commissions boost.

Happy dance! ♪♫♪

Rock on, Diva!! I still haven't had a $1000 show but looking forward to the day I do have one. That is just AWESOME that you had one so early! Maybe some of your sales magic will rub off on me! I'm determined to have my hosts in January earn at LEAST $500 so they can get more free products! Ramping up my Host Coaching...booyah!

 

[CookingwithMary]

Kelly, I love your happy, bouncing smilies! Thanks !!!
I am very excited- so super excited!!! It's been a long 3.5 months, and I needed this boost to my confidence more than you'll know.

Thanks for all the happy congrats everyone. You are all super sweet!

Thanks Mary Rose! I really coach my hosts to get outside orders. Most of my hosts are able to get between $100 and $450.00 in outside orders. I made a little flyer that I put in my host folders that points out why outside orders are important to a show... so far it seems to be helping- my average show has 7+ outside orders!

I know you'll do at least $500 at each of your shows in January, because you sound very determined! Keep it up, and I'm sending some of my sales magic your way! (***sales magic***)

 

[quiverfull7]

Would you post your outside order flyer?

 

[Kitchen Diva]

I will sure try!

 

[Kitchen Diva]

possibly helpful flyersHere is the Why outside orders are important to your show, and then another one I put on the back of my lap boards, and some times I just slip it in the host package for them to read...

Hopefully you won't think they are too corny, and feel free to edit them any way that will make them more helpful to you.

 

[CookingwithMary]

Kitchen Diva, I love the 2 fliers! Thanks for sharing.

 

[raebates]

That's great! Congratulations.And, even though I have a wonderful director and cluster, I love the instant love I get here.

 

[lockhartkitchen]

Thanks Diva. I'm going to try your flyers. My shows have always been above the PC average, but since I've moved I've been averaging a lot more. I know that if I encourage outside orders, I can add more to my shows and hit more shows $800-$1000

 

[Melonie Swinamer]

Thanks for the flyers, I am going to modify them with Canadian prices and give them a try. I have had a couple of Kilo shows (as we call them here) but I would really like more. I think the one will really help with bookings too, something I have trouble with sometimes.

You go girl!!

 

[Kitchen Diva]

raebates, I love the instant love, too. it is warm and fuzzy...

 

[Kitchen Diva]

I just closed the show, and we ended at $1016.07! Whoo-hoo-

Too bad that I only had that show, and one catty show because this could have been a whopping month for me. I'm still super-dooper excited that I hit my first $1,000 show!!!

 

[missiemom]

CONGRATS!!!
I had my first $1000 show last week and my director is taking me out to eat. It's so exciting and I get paid for it tom. too! :sing: Just think you'll get that money just in time to go shopping the day after christmas or any last minute shopping.
