How did you advertise? Did you only get e-mail orders or did people call you? What kind of notice did you give them? What incentives did you offer that people took advantage of?

Sorry so many questions I am working on doing this next Friday???

Thanks,
Leea
 
I sent it out last night via email. Kinda short notice but I didn't want to wait anylonger! They did email replies. No extra incentives just the sale hours. If anyone contacts me this weekend saying they just received thier email to add to it I will happily oblige!

Soo happy! I thought I was closing this month out with a ZERO sales (two hosts postoned to August) . And now I have this to add and a host changed her catty show to July instead of August! Whewww, I feel so much better now! Thanks again!
