I am so excited!! I sent the HWC Press Release to some local papers and I had one Editor reply back (over a month ago) that if they had room, they would consider it. I didn't think much of it at the time, but when I got the paper (its a community paper that comes in the mail~reaches 30,000 people) I opened in up and on about the 3rd page there it is......They condensed it to about a 1/4 page but it is great!!! It has a bold title that says "The Pampered Chef Dedicates May as Help Whip Cancer Month", plus it has my contact info. I am so excited!!
It talks about how PC raised the contribution this year to up to 25%, How PC does it in May because of Mothers day, etc.etc. (all the stuff from the Press Release)
WOOHOO!!!
 
Good for you! Sounds like you can create some good business from that ad.
Congrats on your 5 qualified recruits & walking at conference!!

Awesome! I gotta try this! I saw it earlier, but didn't really think my local paper would put it in!

You can find the Template on Consultants Corner under Promoting you Business. Click on the promoting your business tab and it is the HWC Press Release template.
I hope this helps! Good Luck! The paper just came out on Saturday, but every time the phone rings, I wonder if it someone who saw the ad!
Good Luck!
