I just wanted to take a moment and share how fantastic my first cooking show went! Tomorrow will be my thirty days... could say I was cutting it close. I have had 4 catalog shows already, but its quite different.

Well I forgot quite a few things and had to go back to my house to get them, thankfully the host lives within a rocks throw of my own home. Other than that, it went off without a hitch! Good people, good conversation, good food, and good orders!

I must say I lucked out with this host, she had 16 outside orders BEFORE her show, isn't that unbelievable!?!?!!!! I was just so impressed! Well I hit way over the 1250 mark to qualify today, AND I recruited someone! So.. with all the PC dollars so high within my first thirty days, I just made 350 PC bucks today! How awesome is that?!

Ok enough tooting my own horn. I know you gals are pros but its nice to have such a good start. It makes me very motivated to keep going at full speed! Wish me luck!
 
Oh my gosh - congratulations on such an awesome start! Keep up the momentum, and we look forward to hearing more from you.
 
Wow!! Congrats!! I hope you keep your momentum as well! I am lucky to get 4 outside orders, let alone 16!! That is a show in itself!! Was the host your recruit?
 
Fantastic!! 16 outside orders? Unbelievable. Keep up the good work.

Actually no, but you'd think, right? She's obviously got the personality! I told her the other day I'd like to get the email she sent to everyone at our work, because whatever she said, it got the job done!

The recruit seemed to be someone who was stewing over it for a while, I just happened to be the person who asked at the right time! (Also, kudos to the recruiting benefits, 2 stones? I think that sealed the deal!)
 
Great to be in the right place at the right time. That was me. I went to a pc party looking for some thing to do. I was an easy sell. So happy to be here!! I think your host is your second recruit.
 
Sounds like you're off to a great start. Congratulations!
 
WOW! Awesome way to start your business.
 
Congrats to you and the host on the wonderful party! Very exciting....
I can't believe you got someone to sign at your first show! WOW You go! :D
 
Congratulations, what an awesome show! Keep up the good work, and be sure to share your tips with us :)
 
WOW! What a first show. Keep up the fantastic work, and the momentum. Look forward to hearing from you in the future!!!!
 
Wow! Nice work!
 
Great job on a great start. What a great host, too.
 
Congratulations! What a great way to finish off your first 30!
 
WooHoo! Congrats!
 
That is MARVEY! Way to go!
 
Wow 16 outside orders! That is awesome. I would love to see the email she sent out also, if you would be willing to share.
