I Earned my Tablecloth with Just Two Orders! :chef:

[chefannie]

I was really feeling bad about not earning the tablecloth - I had four parties scheduled for January (1 was going to be the party that earned me the tablecloth, but the host cancelled due to family issues). My second party cancelled due to more family issues, my last two are pretty firm so far. I have spoken a couple of times with each host and all OK so far. But I was really upset about not getting the tablecloth. I had resigned myself to not earning that incentive, I decided to check my email this afternoon. Guess what - there was an order from a a lady who had attended one of my earlier parties with an order. I was so excited - she was one of my customer care calls to all those who placed stoneware orders telling them of the great stoneware special for January! Out of more than 20 phonecalls I got one order! I was so excited - so I opened up a catalog show under my sisters name as she needed to order two little items and then I made another phonecall to a sister-in-law and hurray she placed an order and my catalog order came to $151.53. I made it with $1.53 to spare! :love: :love: I am pumped up again and can't wait for my other two parties!

Way to go, Annie! That's awesome!

You guys are so lucky in the US, you only need $150 to make a show. We need $200!!

Never sell yourself short!!! I learned that early on in this business. My first three months (back on Super Starter Months when you had to have $1250 in sales each month to earn a group of products - I like the free PC$ better that they have now!) I had two shows each month and was suprised my first month when I made it! My 2nd month, I had both shows in one weekend and they were both $300 when I left. Emailed my director and I remember telling her "I won't make it this month " She told me to not count my eggs before they hatched. Sure enough, both hosts pulled through and I got over $1400 and earned my products. I learned to never count anything as gone until the deadline has passed.

Long story short - enjoy your tablecloth!!
