(though my DH tells me it's not the recipe that sells the products, it's me:blushing:

My DH told me the same thing yesterday as I was fretting about my set up for a fair last night. I didn't have it as together as I would have hoped and he told me (paraphrased) that it wasn't my pretty table that would attract people, it's my personality.

Take your man on a trip, ladies, and he will be behind you 100%! Set your goals NOW to earn a trip in 2008!!!!!
 
Way to go, Ginny! You ROCK!

I hope everyone is striving for the top of the sell-a-thon. So far, I have 2 shows in and $100 short of $3000.....YIPEE!!! :D
 
Wow!!!! You Rock!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
Great job everyone. I just got home from my 1st show of the month and it closed at $1150. My host ordered about $800 in cookware so that will get me to the 7 piece set that I want. I am so excited!!!!
 
$1459! That is so great! Sometimes I forget to give multiple uses for products. Thanks for the reminder...duh!
I was pretty excited about my show, Monday night. When I left it was $693, but she did hold it open. Today, the show is at $852.52 from 15 orders, and she will close tomorrow. I would love for her to buy cookware, but I'm very happy with the show results so far.
