These are copied from the website, then sorted by price.

I converted it to a word document for those who don't have excel, and to PDF. It's pretty long.

If you have excel, it should be easy to paste from Word into excel so you can update and sort again when new items are added :) or prices change.

Well, that makes sense then.
 
Love this idea!! Just sent out an email and made it a weekend sale! Hoping it generates some sales for sats! Thank you!!!!
 
I am going to do this NOW... what a fab idea! I think even just sending out a list of items for $10 or less in general would do something!
Nice Job!!

So - this month has been insane. I only had one show booked for the first 15 days (it was a 1400 commissionable sales show though). I submitted the show today, but was bummed because I really wanted that 1 free Fall product for 2 shows in first 15 days.....well at about 2:30 I had a friend call wanting to order the DCB and a stainless steel bowl. So I thought - what the heck - lets do a quick note out and do a $10 express sale. So I sent an email to all of my contacts with the subject line "Could you use $10?" and sent the following...

One day only!!!!! $10 for $10 Blast

Today is a special day!
Anyone who orders $10 in products will be entered in a drawing to win $10 cash (or $10 in free product)!!!

This is for one day only, it will end at 10 PM TONIGHT! If you know anyone who is wanting to purchase one or two items, forward this to them. But remember - all orders must be in by 10PM. You can email orders to me at this address, go to my website at <website> (Host is <my name>) - or call me at <my phone>! Credit cards are accepted on the web or by phone. If you email me, I will call you about payment arrangements.

I have included a list of $10 or less items to help you find what you need!

(I attached a list of $10 or less items)

WELLLLLLLLL>>>>>>>
It is only 8:06 and I've already had over $200 in orders....AND one of my customers called and said not only did she want to order something - but that she wanted to set up a wedding registry!!!!!! I'm so excited!
So - it looks like I will be getting that free Fall product after all....AND I just realized that I will be meeting the $1500 minimum SAT! Yay! I still have 2 shows left for this month ...so things are looking great!

Ooooh, oooh, oooh! I would SO MUCH RATHER do this than try my own show! I only need $200 for the next Sell-a-thon level!

Does somebody have a list of the $10 items? I'd like to do this for this weekend ... maybe a 3-day weekend of Friday, Saturday and Sunday.

It is located under the files tab. I may do the same. Great idea!!!!
 
Great idea! I have been struggling myself to get shows for this month. I think I will try this idea myself.
 
How did you handle shipping? What did they pay?
 
I have started this project this morning on email and have $150 in sales so far..

I am also emailing a photo of the pineapple wedger and the hot upside down pineapple cake in the DCB that I made. I have sold 7 wedgers so far!

"Pineapple for breakfast! I ♥ my pineapple wedger! Want one? I am having a $10 PChef drawing! One blessed person will get $10 off their order (p-wedger is $18) or $10 in free product + FREE shipping ($4.25 value)! Help me meet my goal this month by placing a $10 order! There will be an extra free Mystery gift to the winner too! I am only $600 away from my goal...."

Going to be running this special till Saturday morning and putting the show in before I leave for a week!

I actually didn't know about it until I saw this thread. Funny. They did change my wording quite a bit - but I expected they would. She called me yesterday and asked a few last minute questions. I love this site - I never would have had the idea if it weren't for all of your inspirational stories!
 
Nancy how did you handle shipping and handling?
