Did You Go to the Don Funt Meeting in Oh?

In summary, Don told the group that you can't have a forty hour a week pay check if you only work your business 2 or 3 hrs. a week. And not that he actuall said this but this was my train of tought... Don't make things harder than they need to be. Be practical and real, thats what hosts and guests want to see. He also told the group that you can't have a forty hour a week pay check if you only work your business 2 or 3 hrs. a week. And not that he actuall said this but this was my train of tought...

I know this is kind of late, the meeting was Monday. I also didn't know where to post it but oh well!:) I was the cheap date when we were talking about the bowl of soup demo!:D
For those of you who were there I just wondered what you thought. I've never been to conference so this was my first time meeting Don and I was blown away. He is so funny and so real. He says he's blunt but I just think he is obvious!
What did you take away from the meeting? He told us to take one thing and really focus on that aspect of our business. What did you do this week and what were your results?

I took away two things. You can't have a forty hour a week pay check if you only work your business 2 or 3 hrs. a week. And not that he actuall said this but this was my train of tought... Don't make things harder than they need to be. Be practical and real, thats what hosts and guests want to see.
I really worked my business so far this week. I got on the phone (which weighs a ton to me!;)) and I booked four shows and have one that may be interested in the biz.
How did you do?
 
I didn't see him at your meeting, but did see him at NY Regional & thought he was awesome!! Its really hard to think of 1 thing because he gives soooooooo much info!! :D

Why because they make good money?
 
I was WONDERING!! :)
I was sitting on the floor in front of the coffee table...

I still need to implement things from that meeting. I had already started doing a no-demo/walk through the catalog show... but really want to put more effort into making those phone calls. I also like his humor... I wish I could have that same effect!

I'm under Pat Poldruhi and she is also under Terry. Pat was the one he was calling cute, she wasn't wearing a name tag.

I didn't know the training was happening, but I have heard him before on a booking CD. Let me know if you want me to toss you a copy the next time I drive through Garrettsville ....

I did like what he said about deciding one day to take his business to a new level, filling his calendar and not making a call to book a show since .... he has had a full show schedule and books all his parties at shows. Something this "catalog queen" needs to model ...

This was a directors monthly meeting. She is under him. (that doesn't sound good!:blushing:) She opened her house up to some other directors and we were invited from there. It wasn't a training per say.

I like that part too. I don't really know of a part I didn't like actually!:D

LOL that made me laugh. OT- The other day I was listening to the radio and the DJ said when he was growing up his Mom always worked the polls! (They were talking about the upcoming election) So after everyone got done laughing he said I meant P-O-L-L-S NOT P-O-L-E-S!
Funny how some words have new meaning nowadays!
Made me laugh too but I am easily amused!
