Well, i first want to say thank you to everyone here who gave me their 10 cents on pointers of doing my first show.....here at my home..which was my kick off show!

it went well -----

I had 16 people come to my show! ( one neighbor who I met 6 days ago by stopping by her house w/ a flyer telling her i was new to the area..brought 4 of her friends!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

I had 5 bookings for future shows!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!FIVE!!!

And I had $400 in sales ( if I count the $100 in orders I had prior to the show from some family/our realtor)

So thanks again. I think everyone who came had fun, and it was an enjoyable experience for all, so I'm just feeling good. Plus, since I got some great bookings for people who I don't know all to well, it will help me get into NEW circles of people!

YEAH!
 
How Great! What a great way to get your business started on the right foot!
 
Bookings are key and it sounds like you got 'em, so YEAH!!!!
 
Heather,
Five bookings! Yay! I'm glad everything went well.
 
That is fantastic. What a great kickoff. 5 bookings are a good start to your business.
 
Congrats! That sounds like an awesome kick-off show to me!
 
Woo hoo! Way to get started!

FIVE BOOKINGS is amazing! That will really get your business rolling, especially since it sounds like they will be moving you out of your circle of family and friends!
