Looking for a Good Blemish Concealer

In summary, the author is trying to earn $16,000 in one month and has been unsuccessful. She has 16 shows left in March and April and if she can sell most of the products she has in those months, she can make her goal. She also recommends broadcasting her goal and asking for help.

Hey, it's worth a try! Just keep track of your "Consutlant Gift" in your expenses so you don't have to pay taxes on that "income".

With this deal you are actually paying less than 25% out of pocket and like Kristy said, you can write 50% off.

My math: Customer pays 50%, your commission is between 25-30%. So a $100 item = $50 consultant gift (tax deduction). Commission on the item is $25 or more. And then with TPC you get all those PC$$, ring or diamond on the ring, etc. (I know... I don't have to tell you all that.:rolleyes:)

I would so do this if I was that close to TPC!!

Thank you for clarifying this Beth...I don't think I fully 'got it' at first!

I am down to needing $703. I have over $6000 in sales this half, too. At 27% (no overrides this check) it's $1620, plus the other $100 they owe me for earning free conference..woo hoo! Putting more in the savings than normal this month!!

Can't wait to see the total sales for the month. It could be my largest to date. Geez, maybe I should work like this every month ;)

Wow Janice, this is awesome! Congratulations!

Uh-oh...looks like my Tuesday host may have to reschedule due to a major event most of her invitees have to go to the same night. {{{heavy sigh}}}

Tomorrow's show has 15 rsvps as of today's reminder calls...here's praying that holds.:angel:
 
  • #156
I am rooting all of you on!!! You CAN do this!! I can't wait to log on and read that you've reached your amazing goal!! GO, GO, GO!!!!!
 
  • #157
15? That's going to be a great show...how about encouraging each to take a catalog or two to work so they can get their own Host Specials!!

If even 5 took you up on it, that's 5 catalog shows you could close by the end of May!!!
 
  • #158
She's aiming for a $1000 show...and the signs are good. At this point in the race though, I'm a little gunshy about making projections.:eek: I like the suggestion of generating catalog shows...maybe offer an incentive.

I'll make a decision next Wednesday or so whether to offer a full blown fire sale. (I think it's a great idea...thanks Kristi.)

The category I'm really holding my breath on is recruiting...I'm one consultant shy. The gal most likely to qualify this month has her second show tonight and is scheduled to close two catalog shows on Sunday and submit them on Monday (her 30th day). If that happens, I'll be doing happy cartwheels!

i got a $22.50 online outlet order yesterday from a past customer. Then she called me and said she needs some Italian Seasoning as well, but couldn't figure out how to add it in. D'oh. So I'll place that order for her.I went out for dinner last night and gave away a catalog. It was an acquaintance from my mom's church, so I told her to get her order to me by the end of the month and she said she would. :)I have at least another $600 in orders sitting here waiting for payment, so I'm under $5k now. Inching closer and closer and closer....
 
  • #169
Ooh, just booked a show for May 30th! And my show tomorrow already has $280 in outside orders. I talked to my host for my 5/23 show and she has 20+ people coming. I will make it, I will make it, I will make it.....
 
  • #170
Update your siggy Deb...let us see that 4K mark!!! :)
 
  • #171
How about offering an extra incentive if your hosts have over $1K show...for the one on the 23rd, suggest a 2K goal!

  • #176
Online order of $65 and catalog show turned in $218.90 surprise catalog show, so I'm now under $5k. :eek:

Nope...no shows til Sunday. She should put me over, though. A little over $600 to go!

Deb, you still have time!!! GO, GO, GO!!!!
 
  • #178
Ugh, my show tonight was one of the rockiest I've had. The 15 confirmations turned into cancellation city (not so good weather here). Four guests showed (all at different times) and three have done shows with me in the last two months. The host miscalculated the amount of her o/o (not the $350 she thought); with four orders at the show the sales are sitting at $381 (versus the $1000 she was going for).:cry: She plans to follow-up with everyone, so the sales should go up...but I'm feeling a little disheartened at the moment.

(the pity party is temporary...tomorrow should be a better attitude...thanks for letting me wallow)

Go Leggy!!!


Go Debbie!!

Go Janice!!

Way to go Beckie!!


I'm not sure it's gonna happen for me, just lost 2 shows that were scheduled for today, they cancelled last night, ugh. Might have to offer a fire sale, would be easier to figure out if these host would just close their shows, yeeeesh!!

What's a fire sale?
Good luck Lori - it's not too late - you can still pull it off!
 
  • #181
Hi Carolyn! A fire sale is what Kristi posted about earlier...offer an incredible discount so as to generate sales numbers. (I think I'm going to have to do this myself.)

Thanks Ladies!
What a difference a day makes! I just met with my host from Monday to close her show (she'd been out of town). Her sales were $858, but the commissionable ended up being $1057! She also made me feel good by being so amazed and excited at what she was getting. The kicker is she gave me the name of a friend who wants to do a PC wedding registry and who just opened her own small restaurant. (I called her and we're meeting next week...she loves Pampered Chef and, besides the registry, wants to do periodic shows in her banquet room!)

So, back to TPC. I just submitted this show; $2649 to go! (I also have about $750 in sales from open shows that will go in later this week.) Feeling hopeful again. Thank you for the cheering you're giving us all...it helps!!!
 
  • #186
Yeah, Kris! Way to keep it moving along!!
 
  • #187
Oh! I miscalculated in my favor: I 'only' have $2463 to go!

I love seeing you post with a high show...keep knocking the amount you need down, one thousand dollars (or more) at a time!

That's my plan!!!! I have a show on Tuesday and the host's goal is $1500 in sales. Then next Friday my host has 20-22 people coming. :eek: So between those two, I know I'll knock out another $2k+I also have a show next Saturday and then the following Friday (May 30th) so it really will be down to the wire.
