7 Cooking / 2 Catalog Shows for July
3 Cooking Shows for August!

It's been my best summer ever too! I am sitting at $4700 in sales for June - with one catalog show to close - that is my BEST EVER month fo sales (not counting my big fundraiser) and the most shows I've ever had in June!

Even if not all of my Shows stick for July - I've never gone into July with this many shows on the books before!
 
(Hanging my head low) I only have 2 for July and 2 for August right now.
 
I have 2 for July I did have 4, and I have 4 for August. I did have 4 for July but 2 moved to August.
 
I only have one for July and one for August. I'm doing my customer care calls from my first two shows at the end of the week. I hope to get more from those *fingers crossed*
 
Right now I only have 3 for July and none for August. I have a show tonight that might get me a July booking or two. But I really don't care if I have anymore July shows. Last year I had 0, so I'm already better than that! I was going to make some calls for July bookings, but I think I'll just wait until the Monday after I get back from conference & do the calls then to book August & September. I'm having a baby in October & am planning on taking that month off, so I want to do all I can right before so I can book up November & December from those August & September shows.
 
I have 4 for July. None in August yet, but working on that. One gal wants the knives bad so we will see what happens!!
 
I have 1 cooking and 1 catalog for July and 2 cooking shows for August - hoping to get 2 more in there for each month.

Yeah, I have a few leads for the knives, but no definite dates yet so those don't count! The past hosts from those shows really want the knives, so they are going to hound the potential hosts for me!!!:D
 
1 catalog for July. 1 cooking for August. I have GOT to get on the phone!
 
7 cooking & 4 catalog is July

4 cooking & 3 catalog ~ so far!

(I need to get crackin' on August, but I want a few more to buffer myself for cancellations and reschedules that are bound to happen in July!)
 
So far I have 1 in July and 3 in August, but I will be doing customer care calls tomorrow so I'm hoping to get a few more for July.

I have 3 in July after Chicago plus I am doing a 1000$ mystery host catalog show while I am away. I could potentially have another one before I leave for conference but she hasn't committed officially yet. Then I have NOTHING! for August! I am out of ideas... I guess I am waiting on my next few shows to generate some bookings... I have 3 for September though!!!!
 
I have 3 Cooking/1 Catty Show for July. July is sort of hard since conference and then we are having a family vacation at the end of July.

4 cooking shows in August.
 
For July I have about 3 catty and one cooking (one just cancelled the other day)

I have 2 cooking for August so far
 
July- 2 cattys, 3 cooking
August- 2 cooking

Just booked another cooking show for July - up to 2 cooking/1 catalog for July and 2 cooking for August - plus I talked to another friend who's looking at her calendar as well. Hopefully it will keep going!
 
4 for July and 2 for August so far!
 
2 for July - have time for 2 more
4 for August - want 2-3 more + a maybe bridal shower
 
We have 8 shows booked for July and 2 for August so far! Keep up the great work everyone!!!! :)
 
I have 1 definate and 1 maybe in July and 1 in August... I need to get on the phone!!! I'll be doing that Friday!!
 
3 Kitchen Shows, 1 Catalog Show for July

4 Kitchen Shows, 2 Catalog Shows for August

and 1 that hasn't decided on July or August
 
Keep calling everybody - keep up the good work - I was able to talk to two more people tonight - one wants me to call her back early next week (she was headed out of town) and another said to keep her in mind in a couple of months (too many family obligations right now) and these two ladies I met at a booth a couple of weeks ago. So you never know who might be interested.
 
I have 4 cooking shows for July amd 4 caddy shows
for August I have 5 cooking shows

7100.00 for June Whoo whoo , still need to get on the phone for Aug and Start on Sept . So far 2 in Sept , 2 in Oct
 
Wohoo I have 3 cooking shows for August now - 2 actually booked today. I do a lot of catalog fundraisers so getting this many on my books already pleases me I also have at least one catalog show for Sept and cooking show for the fall (need to pin down a date still).
 
Just 1 at the very end of July. My career with PC is starting so slowly. I am really kind of discouraged.:confused:

Oh well. I will keep on going.
