Wow - I love my husband!! :love:
He took some flyers for my grand opening to work last week, then came home on Friday and said he needed to take catalogs to work b/c several people wanted to buy, but couldn't make the show. So, sent a few with him on Monday, he came home Monday night asking for more b/c there was such interest. Came home today and handed me a stack of 6 OOF with the disclaimer - "that's not all, I still have more to collect tomorrow and Thursday." His 6 orders were over $260!
And there are more coming! 
Right now I stand at almost $650 in sales, with 3 people that attended my show still owing me orders...one wanted her husband (who does most of the cooking) to look at the catalog and add to her order, two others wanted to see if any of their friends wanted to order anything. (If those orders are over $150, I'm going to offer to make it their own show)
Oh yeah, did I mention that one of the top VP's in his company called me to book a show today? :balloon: :balloon: So, from my grand opening, I stand at 3 solid bookings, 2 on my calendar, one is tentatively penciled in (but is good for a show). Things are looking good!!
I'm very hopeful that my first show will top $750-800. :love:
When I first approached him with the idea of becoming a PC consultant to earn some extra income so I could continue to be a SAHM (and contribute to the family income), he was quite skeptical. He didn't feel it was realistic at all, that you couldn't make a decent income, etc. (you know, typical guy responses - no offense KG and scott) Which is funny, b/c he's the one who introduced me to PC when we first started dating (he had several products, including the rectangular stoneware pan, which we still use). Well, great husband that he is, he has held true to his word and supported me 100% since I signed. And look who's going to be eating his words now!!
Sorry so long, just excited!!

The bonus free product is a nice incentive and nice treat to help me build my products/kit...so I have more I can make and show.
