Thanks K!!!
 
Your so welcome!! :D
 
Sooo awesome...thanks!
 
So I downloaded this and figured I'd use it to fill my calendar in January, for my charter month. What a great motivator - to cross out all those no's...and in the process get some yeses. :p So, I have 4 shows in Jan (including my grand opening) and it was looking good. I'd only contacted a few people to get that...others I want to contact are working odd shifts or out of town. I'm going to wait until Sunday to call again...haven't made any calls since Tuesday.

My question is - if someone who originally told you no about hosting a show comes to you and tells you she'll host a catalog show, do I lose that no? :)

LOL!!! I've already gleefully erased the mark over that no! :D

I'd have to say NO to that ... A dear friend of mine did that and her catalog show was over $300!
