You guys are so close I can taste it! I know you can do it!! Go! Go! Go!:party:
 
I was thinking of doing a Preferred Customer/Past Host sale. I'm going to see how the weekend goes--two big shows--and go from there.
 
I am just totally impressed that you have not just one, but 2 shows on Memorial Day weekend! YOU CAN AND WILL DO THIS DEB!!!!
 
Thanks Meg. I had a $1200 show the day before Easter, too. I just tell them if their people will be around, let's do it! My host on Saturday is doing her show as a holiday barbeque--the guys will be grilling while the girls make the new red white & blue trifle. :)
 
COME ON DEB!! You'll do it!!!:D Anthony and I are cheering you on!!:D
 
Hey Deb.... that's me in Chris' post with the pompoms cheering for you!!!!(yes... suddenly I'm blonde!)
 
Just submitted a small show (orders I collected) of $270. Signature updated.
 
Go Deb Go Deb Go Deb GO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
Woohoo! It all makes a difference!
 
$32 online order, plus I have another $60 placed over the phone that I'll hold and hopefully put together another show with other orders.DH has catalogs out at work and one of the single guys mentioned he's going to buy cookware. :eek: We'll see on Tuesday....
 
Go Deb Go!!!
 
Deb, way to work it!

I had my show tomorrow night re-schedule for May 31st (that makes 2 on that day), but I have 2 catalog shows to close and should be reaching that goal soon...the suspense is KILLING me!!!! :rolleyes:
 
Just submitted a $300 show and will close another small one today. After that, I think it's down to a few hundred dollars.
 
I am not anywhere near TPC again this year :cry: BUT I just wanted to chime in that I am having my best month in over a year. I have had lots of $4000 months in my 6 years and even a few $5K and $6K months but in the last year it's been a stretch to get to $3K.

In May I have already submitted $3K and have another $1K waiting to close and 2 cooking shows and 4 catalog shows still to go. I also recruited 2 this month and have a couple that are considering.

I know compared to some of you this isn't high sales but for me lately this is huge! It's all relative.

Thanks for letting me toot my little horn among you STARS! :sun:

I WILL JOIN YOU AND GET MY BLING IN 2008/09!!!!

Congratulations Beth!! That is Awesome!!

I couldn't agree with you more! I am no where near TPC either but I'm having my best month since February of 2007! :eek:

I have $2787 turned in and another $1525 show that is getting submitted today. I also have 3 catalog shows out there so over all, I may be hitting $5k this month!! I also have a new recruit signing as I'm typing this and hope to at least get one more. We shall see!

I just had to share as well with Beth that I'm also have my best month is over a year and a half!!:D

Awesome, Beth!!! Way to go. Keep up the great work.

This will end up being my 2nd best month EVER in the five years I've been a consultant. Hello awesome commission check!!!:money::money: My best month ever was last May when I was REALLY cramming what I could in to earn TPC - it was a $10,000 month!
 
Way to go Beth and Kristi and Becky!!!!
 
WOW you guys, these are great achievements!!!! (I'm a firm believer in shout-outs for 'personal bests'.) Woo-hoo and congratulations!
 
Awesome job Becky! That is fantastic!! My best is $6200 and I was thrilled!

CONGRATS!!
 
Whew. Just submitted the other show I had open. So now I need about $315...and I already have over that in outside orders for tomorrow's show (which is good since they are only three people coming...)

Anyhoo, it's not official, but looks like I made it (channeling barry mannilow in this thread too)

Thank you Deb, for inspiring me to go for it. Here's cheering for you as hard as I can!!!!!!!!!!!!!

(thanks to everyone else too of course...just have deb's amazing push on the mind)
 
My show tonight is expecting 24 people. Now, this is a crowd that normally brings their husbands along too, so I'm not sure if this is 24 women or 24 women and men. My host is also having a rep from Wildtree herbs who is featuring some of their oils, so she's making a pasta and having bread to dip. I've got two recipes ready to do interactively, so we'll see what kind of mayhem ensues. :) I did a couple hands on shows at Christmas time with this crew, so I think it will work out okay.My host tomorrow said to prepare for 20. She's making it into a holiday BBQ, so I'll be giving our BBQ tools to the guys and the girls will go inside and make the red white & blue trifle. :) I'm hoping that these two shows will give me at least $2k.But enough about me....WAY TO GO KRIS!!!! I'm so honored that I inspired you to do it. Thanks for cheering for me, too!Oh, and my newest recruit has her first show tomorrow, so I'm excited for her. I talked to her this afternoon and she's ready. :)
 
Awesome, Deb and Kris!!

I just love this thread. I come check it several times a day to see what our TPCers are up to. This is so fun!!

I totally remember the moment last year when I was calculating everything by hand like crazy (because that dang TPC Calculator wasn't updating) and I was home by myself tallying up shows. At one point I entered all the shows up until that day into my own calculator and the number ended up being EXACTLY 55,000. I got chills! I actually took a picture of my calculator with that number on it. It shows up on my screen saver slide show on my lap top every so often and it makes me smile.:D You guys will feel SUCH accomplishment when you see that little (well....BIG) number!

That is such a great story! And I understand what you mean about the chills.

I wonder how late we all need to stay up tonight to get Deb's after-show update?
 
you know she is having a blast!

I am going to have to just check in in the morning....DH & I have some unfinished business to take care of later!!!!;)
Our marriage is at the point that the only time we see each other is passing in the driveway or when he is coaching baseball and I am in the stands! We gotta have some "alone" time and that trumps Deb's trip to TPC! I know she will understand!

Deb, you better post as soon as you get home!!!!
 
way to go everyone!! Just did my last kitchen show this month, but have tons of catalog shows to close and booked 2 more catalog shows tonight, so who knows, I could just pull this off. I've been offering everyone who does a catalog show, and it hits $200 in sales, that they'll get entered in to a drawing for June, for a $100 shopping spree. Seems to be motivating them.
 
I am home. I wish I had better news. I counted I think 12 or so women who participated in my demo while their husbands stood around the kitchen and talked. Not everyone ordered, though (which is fine, really). I don't have exact numbers but sales are only around $500. :cry::cry::cry::cry: I talked to DH on the phone the whole way home so I wouldn't cry.I did get one good recruit lead and one catalog show booking and two maybe cooking show bookings.But I also came home to an email that my show for 6/13 is cancelling. It's okay cuz this woman has small shows (repeat host) and I wasn't excited about working with her again but now I have a hole in my schedule that will be difficult to fill at this late date.Off to enter it all into P3 to see where I really stand....
 
Sales are $523.87 in 9 orders. More to come I hope.
