I'm so excited to start, but a little worried as I have only one kitchen show and one catalog show scheduled for January. Only 12 more days of December :eek:
 
Hurray!My kit just arrived Thursday. Be sure to make a list as mentioned in the Welcome Booklet. I sure helped me to think of more people to ask than I had initally thought of.
 
write a letter to EVERYONE you Know!I started in November and before starting I wrote a letter to all of my friends and family(to get an idea if I would even qualify or not)! I got 13 bookings from them! It does not hurt to ask! And highlight all of the hostess rewards they will receive, while helping you out! Since then I have done 13 shows and got 7 bookings from those shows! Good luck with the start of your business!
 
PsI forgot to mention I had 3 Grand Opening mystery shows of my own to help jump start my biz! Just an idea! And offer Theme shows to add a little spice and make it different to spark some interest!
 
Also, this time of the year is excellent for promoting your new business! Simply make and bring a PC recipe to every function you have - in whatever PC stuff you have. People just start raving about the products, and what they want .. and that's your opening to ask them to help you!

Good luck!
 
me too me too!My kit just got here too! Faster than I expected by several days!

I'm having fun playing with all of the new tools...it's just like Christmas early! :)

I was hoping it would get here in time to take it with me to family functions and convert the nonconverted relatives! (I've got an engaged sister who's registry contains LOTS of stuff PC sells at the same-ish price! ;) )
