Gosh, I am off to a good start! I already have 11 shows for February and just received a call from a past host who wants to have a show! This is only the second time in my business a past host has called me to schedule, but I love it when that happens:)!

When they first came out with the incentive for the electrics I thought there is no way I'm going to get any of the free products - now I just may get there.

Thanks:)! I will be trying very hard to get good sales and bookings for the rest of the year! Hopefully I can get some free things at the same time:)!
 
GREAT JOB!! That's wonderful. I can't seem to get any shows this month but I am having morning sickness so I guess it's for the best. The Lord must know it wouldn't work really well right now.

Thanks all - I've figured it's the telling them at least 3 times they can get whatever they want 60% off in February:)! What do you know, it works!!

I'm going to start talking about the 50% off benefit they get at all my shows from now on. That seems to work better then the monthly special - at least when it's not a big one like 60% off!
