First Proper Show for 2 Months Tonight

[britishchef]

The last one I did was a fundraiser that only TWO people showed up to and I barely made it through the show, I was so upset. The time before was the host-from-youknowwhere, so that ruined it. Those were both in January and now tonight I have my first show.

I'm all prepared.. new catalogs, new products, I've borrowed the book-to-look gift box idea and have 4 really cute little boxes with tissue paper and a laminated product cut-out inside. Let's hope that works, I desperately need bookings. Also this is a Chocolate theme show (we're a year behind the US) and I got 2 huge boxes of mini candy barsto play "Have it love it got a ?". I haven't played it in the uk yet so hopefully it goes down well.

I have my lovely new show to go set all packed and ready (I earned it by getting all 3 ss bonuses). Prizes wrapped and ready. Pray for me! I need this to go well.

Have fun! If you have fun everyone will have fun! And, hey, aren't you relieved you got those other shows out of the way?

 

[raebates]

Go get 'em!

Good luck Amber! I am sure all will go well. I get a little nervous too when it is a while in between shows.

Go get 'em!!!

Well, the show is at about £300 - which is above average for here (£275). I got a booking and a catalog show. One lady put she was interested in everything -recruiting, having a show, etc but she was very drunk... still, I will call her later.

Everyone kept leaving to have a cigarette and they were drinking lots of wine, and when the show was done and I was taking orders they started rolling joints. I asked them to wait until I had my things packed and out of the room before they lit up because I didn't want my things to smell of pot... (I asked in a nicer way though!) and they kind of scoffed at that "No-one will be able to smell it". Anyway, they did oblige thankfully so I only had to do a bit of clearing up while they were passing around the joint... not much of a second-hand high then!

And these women were driving home last night!

Congratulations on a solid show.

Wow, just wow about the drinking and drugs. If someone started passing around joints at one of my shows, I think I would just about flip. I have had drunk people at my shows, but never high people. At least I do not think so!
