Ok I know we have done this thread before buttt....I am doing a yardsale in the morning and I figured I would set out some flyers, opportunity brochures, and maybe the book to look box or something like that to do a drawing and maybe a few of the spring products just to display. I am starting to feel that burning desire to make this work again so keep your fingers crossed that SOMTHING...ANYTHING.....will happen!! am I forgettng anything? any advice?
 
Good Luck!!!!:)
 
Have some profiterole puffs available!!!;) ;) :cool: :cool:
 
1 more thing....have you ever tried the mini Pecan Tassies....another pastry I DID NOT mess up
 
Monica,

Let us know how it goes! We're not quite into Garage Sale season up here yet but I am planning a sale and thought about trying this as well. Hope you get lots of bookings and leads!
 
Let us know what you did and how it goes - and good luck on the yard sale too!
 
Offer a door prize. Put out drawing slips and get their information! The door prize I usually offer is $10 free products that becomes $25 if they hold a show (and I use their show discount so it doesn't quite cost me the full $25). Then I call others and tell them they won a runner up prize of a free cooking show.

I'm praying for you!!
