Okay, where I live we have a great big Halloween parade. I usually love halloween and our family always goes all out.
Well this year I am just not feeling it do to personal issues. But, my kids are still gung ho.
So, since I am focusing best I can on my business I decided to do something at the parade.
***here's the important part ***
I had gotten a ton of pen flags from when I had ordered from nancy's artwork.
I used some on my pens at shows with cheater questions for the ticket game.
The I decided to do some to put on candy canes for the parade.
one side had my name consultant # and phone
the other said
need cash?
free presents?
I can HELP!
So, turns out I can't get candy canes around here till after halloween, but I did find packs of big red & green Large j9ingle bells at the dollar store, so I stuck it on them. I also had 50 glow necklaces I handed out to the kids.
Everyone was
a) so surprised I was giving something to mommy
b) so happy I was with the Pampered Chef!
anyhow, the only down side is that I don't have THEIR contact info, so I can't follow up...which I hate!
But, you never know who will call, so it was worth it. and made me happy at an event I probably wouldn't have been.
Needless to say I am making more and will take them with me and hand them out everywhere this holiday.
 
Great thinking! I'm sure your kids were thrilled to have their mom out Halloweening-it with them, and you're getting your name out there...double score!
