Just checking in....as soon as I submit my shows from this weekend, I'll have 8000 points so far (all from sales).

Next?
 
That's great Janice - you rock! I have to submit two shows this week (one catalog and one cooking) and had a small catalog show at the beg. of Jan. - so I'm hoping to have around 1600 points (obviously hoping for more) and then I have a mystery host show on the 27th which has close to 20 people coming - hoping for some high numbers there!
 
Janice! You are awesome girl! (of course we knew that!) What a great start for you:)
 
YOUR ROCK!!! I'll be lucky if I get 1500 this month
 
I am glad somebody is doing good because my January is falling to pieces. I had 4 bookings and so far 2 have fell away. One rescheduled for February (kids with strep throat) and the 2nd (suppose to be tonight) cancelled when I called her to confirm and she stated only 2 RSVP'd. And those 2 know the catalog inside and out. This is the 3 rd time for this host to re=schedule. UGGGGG!!!! I did talk her into having a catalog show instead. Our temp is very cold (single digits) so maybe that is keeping people inside. Not a good start to the year. My last 2 are next weekend so I am keeping my fingers crossed that they stay. GOOD GRIEF!!!!
 
I have $2,232.62 ($632.20 submitted and included in total), plus 2 cooking and 3 catty shows not yet submitted. I should definitely get the $1,500 bonus for $3,000 sales.
 
Janice - THAT's AWESOME!!!I'm at $1300 in guest sales - with a show that I did this past weekend - $500 and counting - plus 2 more shows. I'm aiming at $3000 guest sales for the month and the xtra 1500 bonus points!
 
AWESOME Janet! Go girl! I wish my #s looked that good! ;) Give us your total at double points deadline! Love to see how you do in the end! Good luck!
 
You rock Janice! No real points to speak of here (back-to-back moves in two months), but your business is inspirational (as always!).

Well after I submit my catty show today I will have a whopping 400 points. Sad huh?

I do have a show on Sunday though and then 2 more early February. I got SOOO many points last year and this year is just very slow for me so far. Hopefully the few shows I do have will be BIG.
 
I'm at 1983 so far... and planning on LOADS more before this double points session is over! :) It's SUCH a super opportunity and I am going for as high and I can go! I know ya'll are doing the same!

Don't feel too bad Ellen. I'm only at $253.50! I've only got one more show so no big hopes of getting any bonus points. My one show does promise to be a good one though, so that's good for double points!
