I'm so excited. My disaster of a show has a great host who tells her friends you HAVE to order (get this) the can opener! lol and the large bar pan! So right there she has a big sale. Then they add more on. She is at $905 right now and has at least 2 more orders coming.

All this from a show where the grandma burned my micro cooker on the STOVE! and the deep dish baker did NOT fit in the microwave as the host swore it would.

I'll let you know how it goes. I'm so excited.
 
why awsome good luck
 
Wow, that is great. So close I'm sure this host can make it to that magic number.
 
CONGRATS! Don't forget to change your highest show number!!
 
Go Tina Go Tina :D :D :D
 
Don't you LOVE when the host gushes about a big-ticket item and everyone buys it? That's a definite lead in to, "You are better at this than me! Did you ever consider doing what I do?"

Believe me.. I'm trying!!!! She used to sell Tupperware and I told her that she's a natural. Is she SURE she doesnt want to try this? She hasnt said No so we'll see.

Thank you all... I'll let you know how it goes.
 
I have a past host who STILL sells Food Choppers for me...I run into people she knows at shows once in awhile and she's not even there and they buy one! I too have tried to use it as a recruiting tool, but she's not ready at the moment (pregnant with her third child)

Fingers crossed for you that it hits the magic number. How exciting!

Thank you! I hope it happens b/c she's been telling me since I first spoke to her that she was going to have a huge show. With 8 showing up I wondered, but she was right! lol
 
This is where I would offer the host an incentive to get the show to $1000. Tell her you'll buy her a stone if she makes it, and give her an extra day or two to get those orders!

Great job!

Trust me, she works it very well! lol She tells her friends Ok the 2 things you are buying ARE... and she makes them buy the can opener if they dont have it and the large bar pan. She's waiting for 2 more orders at least. She's in no rush and neither am I but we would like to close it out this week b/c its been a week from her show.
 
With two more orders yet to come, you will get your $1000 show.. I can just feeel it!!! :) I'm still waiting for my first $1000 show.. hmmmm maybe I'll get it this month in one of my three shows!!

Keeping my fingers crossed for you!!

Cheers:rolleyes:
