Okay, I agreed to do a candle show for a girl, but only if she did a PC show in return. I did the show, had about 15 people show up, and ended up getting (seriously) hundreds of dollars worth of free candles.
Time for my show-- she does a catalog show, not very enthusiastically. I offered to take goodies up to the office to generate interest, she says no thanks. A week into her two-week show, she has less than $100 in sales, so I pretty much hijacked it, brought treats in and sold about $400 THAT DAY.
Since then, no more sales... until today, the day after it's scheduled to close! She just jumped the $600 mark with these last two orders, so now she has to reevaluate her free stuff, etc. I said we could adjust her part of the order tonight, but I explained we have to close it tonight.
I really need this for May, and I'm worried she's going to be wishy washy (as she has been). I feel like I owe her a good bit of patience since I got so much free stuff, but I also worked harder for the candle show than she has for this.
Sorry this is so long... but do you think I'm being selfish by meeting my May needs using her show?? Technically, I guess I could turn it in in a couple of days... and I kind of feel bad for not offering that option.
