I was at my son's Cub Scout meeting tonight and got to talking to the den leaders wife. (We all met at Mr. Gatti's for food & fun.) I mentioned that I sell Pampered Chef and she replied, "Oh you do? I wish I had known that! I just booked a show with another lady." I said, "Really? Who?" As she was trying to recall she said, "Oh well, it doesn't matter. I could just cancel it with her and have it with you. Can I do that?" I was kinda stumped, because I hate to do that to any other fellow consultant. When she saw me kind of hesitate she added, "Well, I don't really know this lady, I met her at a Taste of Home show....." I threw out a few names, and finally hit a jackpot with her. She had booked a show with my Director!
She went on to say that she was going to have to reschedule anyway, because she hadn't realized at the time that she already had another committment that same day and said she would just have a show with me since we know each other.
I'm kinda at a loss. I really would like to do her show and my director will be earning money from my show anyway, but at the same time I feel guilty. I suggested she call my director and tell her she needed to reschedule and mention that she met me and was interested in doing a show with me to see what my director says.
How would you handle something like this?? I totally didn't try to lure her away from my director. She wants to do the show with me. I don't think my director would care, but I would feel bad anyway.
