I got an email asking me for my ring size. Gotta keep bookin' and cookin'

I know, me too! Isn't that cool? I am so excited...but I need another finger for another ring :p

Can't wait to do the TPC Handshake with you, Deb!
 
Okay ladies...an updateI have two INCREDIBLE catalog shows going. One is at $863 in online orders! I know she has a couple orders on paper too. We are closing tomorrow. The other host told me this week she has $700 in orders so far. :eek: (And yes, I've talked about the biz to both of them.)I had a show tonight that was $1036 and I know she has more orders to come. Of course we aren't closing until I get back from the cruise, so I'm expecting at least $1200 on that one. So I'm $2700 closer! That leaves me with roughly $9000 to go. I have 3 more cooking and 2 more catalog shows in April and 7 cooking and 1 catalog show in May. Oh, ladies, I am going to DO this! Plan to watch me walk!!! :D:D
 
That's awesome, Deb!! Keep up the great work. I KNOW you'll be walking. What a great attitude you have!
 
Deb, You are ROCKIN!!!:party:That's such AWESOME catalog shows!! I just booked another catalog party so I'm really hoping to get A LOT!!! See you in 2 days!!:D
 
WOW!! The catalog show closed at $951.67 commissionable. I'm actually still hoping for a little bit more. It was all online orders and several people were very close to the $60 mark, so I called (and had to leave messages) to let them know. The past host also didn't order the host special (wish there was a way for folks to do that online) so I need to hear back from her as well. So it may go up. But even still, this is AMAZING. I am TOTALLY going to do this you guys. I have less than $10,000 to go after these couple shows are turned in, and I have 10 cooking shows on the calendar. So I'm going to make them count. I have a few catalog shows to fill in the gaps and of course I want to book more shows. My only fear is I'll focus so hard on May that I'll have nothing in June. So far June is EMPTY. :eek:
 
You'll get bookings from those May shows, don't worry! Also, you need to change your signature line!
 
As soon as I hit submit, you know I will! I'm waiting on a couple calls back to hopefully push that show up just a tiny bit. I figure it makes no difference if I submit it tonight or tomorrow, the warehouse still gets it on Monday. And I'm here in Chicago so one day doesn't make a whole lot of difference in terms of delivery. Just not counting my chickens before they hatch. :)
 
What awesome results Debbie!! You're going to get on the ship TOMORROW and be SO excited that you have such stellar sales!! Great Job!! I'm also excited because I have $1750 turned in right now! Yay!:D
 
Ok, down to $8531 to go....I have 11 Cooking shows left in April and May, and 3 catalog shows going AND a HUGE FUNDRAISER event (got me over $4100 in sales last year!).

Oh my, can it be?? I am not "counting my eggs", but am still hopeful! Thanks for letting me jump on your TPC wagon, Deb!

Hubby is on board "You'll do it, what are you worried about"...hmmm....so cute!

GO JANICE!! YOU CAN AND WILL DO IT!!!:D Kick some major SALES butt!!:D
 
Woohoo Kate. 31 shows in 31 days...I say go for it!!!

Deb, Janice: You two are rockin! Love those high sales!

I'm still at $8800 to go. DH and I just got back from London, so need to make some phone calls. I had three catalog shows running while we were gone and have a show tomorrow night. Seeing your posts has me so motivated!
 
I am down to $7400 to go. I have a show tonight and 2 to still close, with a big Fundraiser this weekend and 11 shows on the calendar before the end of May (I keep booking MORE May Shows)!

It's getting down to the wire....how are you all doing??
 
Still at $8800 here. I have a 1K show closing tomorrow, a $400 catalog show going in tonight, and a $600+ show going in next week. Two catalog shows are floating around, though one is possibly drowing and the other appears waterlogged :(.

I don't have anything else until May 2nd...but that weekend is going to be crazy: a show Friday night, a fair Saturday morning, a show Saturday afternoon, closing a Fundraiser Sunday at noon, and a show Sunday afternoon. I didn't really plan it that way, but no one can say I shy away from a challenge.:bugeye:
 
Just had a cancellation for 5/3 and a Mega Show I am hosting is not looking good, but I'm not giving up!!!Have 9 shows to go, I have two Cooking shows and 1 catty show to submit, and have 3-4 other catty shows going.
 
Get on the phone ladies!!
Call everyone and tell them of your goal! Offer a free SBRC with every order!
 
Turned in two shows totalling $2115 in the last 24 hours (which is included in the new figure in my siggy). Still have another $1745 sitting here that will be turned in tomorrow. Plugging along....

Wow, keep it up!!! You'll get there!:chef:
 
Geez Deb! You're rocking girl!!
 
When I grow up, I want to be Deb!





Oh, who am I kidding, I am never growing up! I will just have to settle on being Lisa! ;)
 
I'm down to $6500.
Because I'm still rebuilding after moving in Feb, I was willing to book full, uh really full. This weekend I have:

Friday night- a show that has $350+ in outside orders and 11 est attendees (bless her).
Saturday morning - a small fair I'm doing w/a new consultant (to help her w/booking leads and possibly generate a small HWC show from sales).
Saturday afternoon - a show (est 7 guests)
Sunday morning - closing a fundraiser (no idea how that will turn out)
Sunday afternoon - a show (est 10 guests)

I know this is a crazy schedule, but it's still tame compared to some of my past military days. (Regardless of one's thoughts on the military, it's good for teaching you what you can accomplish when the option to quit is taken away :bugeye:) It also helps that I truly enjoy this business.

After moving twice in three months, I didn't think TPC was even an option. Then Janet started the TPC thread on CS and I saw Deb's post, Carolyn's and some of the others. The support everyone was giving motivated me to give it a serious go.:blushing:
 
Go Kris! That is FANTASTIC!

You can do it!!! I know what that crazy schedule is like. It's completely nuts and you'll feel like you're losing your mind, but it'll be SO worth it! That was me last year when I did $10,000 in sales in May to get TPC. I even over-shot it by about $2000. This year - not so much. But I'm rooting everyone else on!!! You can do it!!!
 
Go Kris!
You CAN do it - you are so amazing!!!
 
Just closed a show at $1149. Inching closer and closer. Updated my siggie to reflect my new goal.
 
Woo-hoo Deb! Love, love, love your show amounts.
 
DEB!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You are SO going to make it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
Go Deb Go!!!!!
 
I have another $600 sitting here ready to go once I receive checks, then I have two or three catty shows out there and 8 cooking shows for May and two fairs, so we'll see.....I HAVE TO MAKE IT!!!!! :D
