I have a director Buddy that does 2 shows on Saturdays. So I decided to try it. I booked one...then another...then another... then another
Sooooooo...
I just did my very first 2 show Saturday!! It was fun, not hard and actually easier than waiting between shows. I actually found that since I knew what I just forgot to do at the first show I did remember at the second show!
Anyhoo, sales from the first one wasn't so great. This host has always (past 3 shows) closed at over 700 so I am not to worried. My second show was an hour away and I had never met the hosts. Well, I get there and she says we should have 5 people. So now I am starting to get concerned. Gas is expensive. So I just mentally decide that we are going to have a good time and that it will be all good.
We did the Deluxe Cheeseburger Salad and the micro chicken. Sold 4 of those ( to 5 guests :) ) and one girl signed!! Right there, booked her shows and everything! Wahoo! That's 2 before the 1st week is up! Gotta love it.

:eek:
So, we are all sitting around talking and the girl next to me is having some salad and then she gets up and goes over to the sink, turns out she starts wheezing and choking! Holy crickets! The girl that just signed had to give her the heimlich (forgive the spelling) and a chunk of crouton came out. It was crazy, the poor thing was purple with embarrassment.
Crazy day.
I am so glad I did it though. I worked one day and so far I have 1300 in sales and a recruit. Not too shabby!
 
Way to go, Cheryl!
 
Cheryl I just said it, but your hot!!!!

Thanks! Crazy about the crouton though!
I told my new recruit that she can say she signed because the other consultant was trying to kill them off!
 
That does suck about the crouton, I like your response.
 
Cool!!! Congrats on the sales and new recruit! What made her want to sign?

One question, though... where did you wash your dishes between shows?

She is young, loved the stuff, had fun and needed another job. Lots of the same reason's we all sign.

I actually came home and did my dishes between. I had about 2 hours of downtime between and my house was in the middle.
Try it, it was fun!
 
YAY for you!! Keep it up!!
 
I would have freaked out if one of my guest did that. And two shows in one day! Id have to work myself up to that! But congrats on it all!
 
That is awesome Cheryl! Just curious, what times did each show start?
 
Just wondering, did you make the same recipe at both shows?

This is the technical aspects of the day for those of you who want to try it.
I schedualed one show at noon and the other at 6:30
I made the deluxe cheeseburger salad at both shows and I bring a chicken in the DCB as my hostess gift so we did that also.
I had time between to come home and do my dishes
If you have any other questions let me know!
Oh, both hosts knew that it wasa my first double show day and were happy they were first!
