I am a new consultant (just started November 1st) and have had my first party already but 3 people came and the host bought something and so did one of the guests, another guest booked a show and no outside orders so its not enough sales to count as a actual show. I am closing a catalog party tonight and I have a party this Thursday but other than that I am relying on the parties to get me at least 2 more parties before November ends so I can get my 4 parties in before deadline. I have had 2 people (that I know and on my 100 list) book parties but canceled on me. I have no idea how to get 2 more parties DONE before the end of November which is 2 weeks away. I know a lot of people but they are really shady and don't really want to committ to having a party. The first party was my mom's party and everyone canceled at the last minute and we took it to work and no luck and we both work at the Health District! HELP ME PLEASE!!! :eek:
 
first, I hope you are adding to your catalog show tonight the party that did not qualify. Also, it is my understanding that you can either submit 4 shows or 1250 in sales. How close are you to that?
 
host your own grand opening shows!This too is my ss1 month and I actually did 3 shows that I hosted. I did a mommy and me which I was the host. Then did 2 grand opening shows with Mystery Hosts. Invite EVERYONE you know -send them a letter asking them to come support your new business or ask them to help you out by hosting a show! That has been my best response so far. I had 13 freinds and family book a show for my first three super starter months.

So far with my 4 shows submitted I qualified & reached my sign on bonus, and with my 5th show soon to be submitted tonight, I will have reached my ss1 bonus and my bonus plus package!

AsK EVERYONE you know to help you out. BE excited, generate interest & excitement from your friends and they will help you out, esp. after explaining how wonderful our host program is!
good luck!
