I started the month of October with 10 shows on the books. Really exciting, but almost overwhelming. Set my goal to hit $15,000 by the end of the month (was about $5,000 away). Well, then 5 of them cancelled, rescheduled, or turned into catalog shows. I was kinda bummed..........








Fast forward to tonight. I knew the hostess had 6 outside orders. The demo and such was kinda average. Sales were decent, until the last customer. She wrote me a check for over $800. Too bad she is a relative that lives almost 8 hrs away!!!!!!

The show is sitting at almost $14,000 right now! :eek:

I haven't ever had a show like this, so I am totally pumped!!!!!
 
WOWZA! Great job!!!! You'll be in CN for sure!
 
woohoo! you can just never tell
 
Here comes 2% extra commission!! Sounds like she's there, she's just waitin to come up and knock on your door!!


totally realized how dorky that was, but I'm not sure it matters :D
 
$14,000 or $1,400? I'm guessing you accidentally added an extra zero? ;)But it's still a great show! Congrats!!!
 
Congratulations!
 
Great show!! Congratulations

I think she means $14,000 Career Sales since she was talking about getting her $15k this month.

I think the confusion is because she typed that the SHOW is sitting at $14,000

HAHAHAH, yes, the show is at $1,400, but I am at right about $14,000 in carreer sales once it submits. I don't think I'll hit $15,000 until November b/c it was my last live show of the month, but it definitely saved my month and is totally exciting!!!!
 
Congrats!!! And thanks for the clarification. A $14,000 Cooking Show that wasn't Fundraiser related would definitely have been something that Corporate would have needed to acknowledge! LOL

Ok, I am about to close the show and it is over $1700!!!!!! I can't believe it!!!!! This will be my first month to hit $4,000 in sales. I am a little short of my goal to hit $15,000 this month, but will definitelly make it next month.
Now, I wish We weren't so broke that the comission wasn't already allocated to go to bills. God is providing though and we are really thankful.
 
Yay! Congratulations!
 
:love:Way to go, girl!!!:D
 
That's awesome! Congratulations!
 
Congratulations leslie! Fantastic work!!
