Monica,
I'm happy to hear about the order. Sorry to hear your son is sick. Things will start looking up just give it some more time. How are the drawing boxes going? Haven't finished mine yet. Got a flyer to post through the neighborhood though for this week.

thanks..he is better...but the swelling wont leave his jonts for about another week and the rash will stay for about 6 weeks. but he's running around like his usual self...thank GOD!!! i think the reason this show has took such a good turnaround is because i havent been worryin about it. i had actually forgot that i had it open until a guest that goes to church with me handed me some money. when you dont worry somthing to death good things happen. i havent had time to fix the drawing boxes up pretty yet. between drama practice, singnig practice, church, and my son getting sick i have had NO time!! hoping to get them done this week though

meat lifterWonder if the person who got the board would need the meat lifter or some other "accessory"?

 

[monica_sweetconsultant]

not sure...have to call and ask her that. she went to her friends show the month we had t he cutting boards on guest special. she was upset because her friend led her to believe it was the rbc board instead. she asked me to tell her if we ever had them on sale and that was it. and then she went ahead and ordered it. but again, thanks for the reminder about the meat lifters!!

Monica, you could ask about the carving set or the roasting pan too!! Those are both high priced items that would put you over your goal!!

I have this one that has 13 recipes on it, I don't know if this is what you are looking for or not. It was copying from someone here, of course!

Give a giftGive a Season's best or something FREE as an incentive for her giving you a referral for a show, or for another order.
Ask her if she can gather one or two orders for you, she will receive a FREE gift from you. Either a door prize, or FREE shipping on her order, etc....
Let her know you are trying to reach the $200 mark.
I notice when I let people know what my goals are, they are very quick to help me out.
Just an idea!
Debbie

 

[monica_sweetconsultant]

thanks for the ideas!! Debbie, I have several doing that right now and I sent out an email before and after my show to everyone I know asking for help to reach a goal......like I said earlier, I'm really not worried about making it or not. If I dont hit it this time, I will at my next show which is next month. I just wont have to work as hard..lol...since I wll be closer. Since I stopped stressing about it, I have had more success and fun doing this.
