I just felt like posting this for extra accountablility for myself. Some of you may remember me mentioning that I have figured out that wedding or bridal consultant is what I want to do with my life. Also as I'm earning my certification and gaining experience with friends and families weddings until I'm comfortable reaching out to strangers for business, that I want to turn PC into my main FT income, since it is much more flexible to start that business around.
Anyway I figured out how much I would need to sell a month with PC if I cut down to 20 hours a week and to PT at my day job. I figured to make the same amount I make working here full time, I would need to sell around $5000 a month.
I've used a conservative number of $500 show avg, mine is a bit higher, which works out to 10 cooking shows a month. I'm not factoring in catalog shows or extras because I'm still going to want the extra since this will no longer be my extra. I also want to have an active team under me as well which will obviously help with the extras.
I've given myself until September to have a consistent enough show schedule that I can be comfortable looking for a PT position at a branch I'd like to work in.
How I intend to achieve this is through many aspects. I will learn to love the phone and instead of fear it. I will consider how unhappy I am at my current day job position. (the pt position I want will be much less stressful) I will make sure I ask every single guests at all my shows first if they are interested in the oppurtunity, then hosting, then if I can contact them with future specials if hosting isn't for them. I will also start collecting more emails and sending a newsletter. I will do as many booths as I can manage and follow up right away with any leads. I will improve my host coaching and find more recruits from hosts. I can do this and I will do this.
Just wanted to have my goals out there as much as possible. I've already told my director and we started our weekly coaching calls again so that helps with my accountability!
