Yeah, Deb! I am trying to make sure that all my May Shows hold...lots of Host Coaching and letting them know my goals.

With what I am sitting on (I hate it when they don't close shows when they say they will!!) I am down to needing $4547.

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

You WILL!! Are you doing your own show? Or just your own catalog show fundraiser for all those random orders you might get in May? Just to give yourself some leeway, have you ever done a $1000 Mystery Host Catalog Show? This may be the month to do it. Knowing me, if I were in your situation, I'd ALMOST get there.

But you're looking GREAT!!!
 
You WILL make it Deb! I know you and you'll Do it! I have faith!!
 
Lordy Deb. With your recent show average, you'll make your goal and maybe double! Keep the updates coming!
 
Yes, I had a talk this morning with one of my May hosts that she must have a $1000 show. :D

My own show/HWC fundraiser is tonight. It's going to be a small crowd because I just didn't get it together and call people as much as I should have. Having the cruise in the middle of it there kinda threw a wrench in my plans. I haven't done a Mystery Host Catalog show since last spring, so maybe it's time to pull that one out. :D
 
Girl, it is time to pull all the tricks out of the bag!

Good luck at your show tonight! If you decide to do the mystery host catalog show, maybe announce it tonight and see who might be interested. Although you don't want it to affect their orders tonight!
 
Woohoo!! Online activity for $24! Every little bit helps. :)
 
That's funny Deb! I just got one for $26!! Yeah!!

Good Luck tonight!
 
Wow, people must be in the shopping mood! I just got one for $48.50!! A good way to start May off.:)
 
Oh, and I FINALLY hit level 1 of the Dream Escapes incentive too.
 
Am less than $400 away from level one as of my show tonight! :)
 
Yeah Colleen! Woo-hoo!
 
Well, every little bit counts...I just got a call from a Host who I didn't know was going to actually get enough sales to make her catalog show. $165 in sales.

I am down to needing around $4400. The Fundraiser I was supposed to do was a complete flop, but I have 9 shows for May (after cancelations and reschedules so far).

I have 37,000 trip points and just signed a recruit yesterday. Have a meeting with a lead today. Those 4000 points each will sooooo help!

Everyone else is really moving along, too!! Yeah Colleen and Deb!!

I can't wait to see everyone at Conference and cheer you all on stage!
 
37,000 trip points! That's awesome Janice!
 
Stupid TPC calculator is not updating! GRRR!!
 
I am determined to do this without having to beg (i.e. offer a sale).I sent out an email yesterday about HWC then one today about the outlet updating. I got an order for $60 for HWC then I just got an online activity with $84.75 worth of orders! WOOT!AND a friend from church (who is a former consultant) asked me about doing a show for HWC. Finally today we set a date and we set the goal for her show as $1500. :):)
 
Go Deb!!!!
 
Whew. Another $1000 down. Tonight's show is at $1063. We're submitting on Monday, so may hit $1100. I'm hoping to generate another $1000 between tomorrow's show and Sunday's (both are small groups).

Great response on the emails Deb. I am totally broke in the whole newsletter/email department. (Carolyn even tried helping me, but I just don't have my act together to get those out.)

If I wasn't using MyEmailDesigns and Benchmark, my newsletters wouldn't get sent either. I love those services.
 
Submitted Friday's show at $1074 and a Fundraiser I just closed for $1063. Need $4403 more to make it.

:pray:Praying for no cancellations!:pray:
 
Go Leggy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Woo hooo!!!! How many shows left???
 
My # of shows left will be updated tomorrow. I have a host who needs to reschedule--ugh--but I may pick up one more from a guest from Friday's show.
 
Tied up another loose end--$308.45. This was just a small show of orders I collected and ordering gifts for two upcoming weddings. :)Down to $6243 to go with about $700-800 still sitting here and 7ish shows in May.
 
Oh my, I am going to scream. Friday's show just cancelled. This woman has rescheduled twice already.NOW, I realize part of it is my fault because i haven't kept up with host coaching her. Last I heard she sent out all her invites, so I *thought* we were good to go. (This is a woman who insisted on sending her own)AAARRRRGGGHHHH!!!!!!Okay, now I really need to get on the phone and replace this booking.
 
Oh that sucks!!:( I'll cross my fingers that you get 1 or 2 to replace that! Last year when I was pretty much right where you are, I pulled out all the stops. I do a lot for May anyway, but I pretty much started begging when I knew I was so close to TPC I could taste it. It actually worked! I don't know if you've gotten to that point yet, but maybe there are some friends or acquaintances who could help you out and who you wouldn't mind "begging" to.

GOOD LUCK!!:)
