I just got the following email from a host who had booked a show in January and was possibly going to sign at her show!

I have been working with her recruiting-wise since last January!!!


Hi

I talked to my husband and he said "go for it". Sooooo.... I am going to give being a consultant a try. The lack of confidence I have, is more that I just get nervous to talk in front of a group of people. Hopefully talking about something I really like will help me with that.

I have to run, but I thought that I would quick write you a note, so you knew before Mari calls you today.

Talk to you soon
Cindy
