Hi Terry! I'd Love To Share...I'd love to share my story with you! I have to say- for how hesitant I was at starting 2 months ago I am in shock at how well my PC business is doing so far! I was horrified about presenting my demos (had a total fear of public speaking) and afraid to leave my 4 month old baby -with her being so young. But so far everything has worked out incredibly. Honestly, my goal was to make $200 a month with PC and so far my very frist pay check was $540 and I have 4 more shows to transmit before the next pay day 12/8/05! I made all of my 3 ss1 bonuses (including my sign on incentive bonus which not everyone has this opportunity, I just signed at the right time)! And My Plus bonus is on it's way to me as I speak! I honestly never even thought for a second I would be getting any of these bonuses as I was signing! Now I want to reach all of them!

First I sent out a letter to all of my friends and family telling them about my new venture with much enthusiasm and could they please help me start it off with a bang! So I fortunately had an overwhelming response with 13 people saying they would book a show with me! My first month has been insane for me! So far I have had 8 shows in Nov. And 3 of them were Mystery Hosts where I had the shows at my house. I did a mommy and me with my daughters class, and two grand openings. But what really put me over the top (in comm. sales) was my very first hosted show with my sister in law who had a $1210 show! She got me off to an amazing start! Sadly, every show after that has been anywhere from $200-450 (which in reality is great for me) but setting the bar so high from the beginning is hard to keep up!

Unfortunately this time of year (december) is so hectic for everyone that I have only gotten 2 "yeses" on bookings for after the holidays and a handful of "maybe after the holiday" respones out of 8 shows. But I am hoping those maybes turn into yeses once I call them after Christmas. I am glad I signed when I did to start my ss1 in Nov. rather then Dec or else I don't think I would have gotten so many shows in that month! I also brain stormed and put together a vendor event at my house which is tonight. I have friends who do Mary K, Scrapbooking and a purse and jewlery lady and we invited some 140 guests. So I am hoping we have a decent turn out w/ either bookings or sales for the night.

Next week I have 3 shows in a row and that will conclude my December schedule. Jan has 3 booked so far and 1 in Feb. So I am keeping my fingers crossed that I can get more bookings at these next few shows for the New year for the Jan and Feb. host specials!

So that is my PC story so far! I want to wish you luck with your new business and you can mail me anytime just to correspond with!
 
new const. letterWould you post the letter you sent out! :)
