Ok. There's This Girl From My Church That I'm Pretty Good Friends

[tabnat80]

Ok. There's this girl from my church that I'm pretty good friends with. We are in the same Bunco group and have kids the same age. Anyways, I always bring my pampered chef recipes with me to bunco to show off my pieces. It's gotten me 2 bookings from 11 folks so far. She's always so interested in it and I have been talking to her a lot for 3 months about doing a party. She just moved a month ago and I told her that it would be a great time to do a party to show off her new house. She sounded so excited. I called her and she said she couldn't do it then because she had boxes everywhere. She said maybe in a few months. (this was 1 month ago). So, I get home today, go to my mail box, and there is an invite to her house for a princess house party!!! I am so upset. It's like a slap in my face. Anyways, I just had to get that off my chest. Thanks for listening

I had almost the exact same thing happen to me when I first started. I was very hurt. I went to my friends party, had the best time I could, never brought it up, and bought the cheapest thing I could.... It happens, move on but do not count her out. One of the people that did it to me eventually had a PC show and it was over $600.

So sorry that happened to you. Some people just can't be honest.

Take it another way - go to the party - smile and wear PC wear or have a caddy sticking out of your bag - meet all her new neighbors and mention how you do shows for PC etc. You never know - one of her guests might book a show and then a whole new group of contacts -

Try to brush off the hurt and look at it in another positive note - good luck!!

I'm not sure that this is the right thing to do. You don't want to be to overt about being a PC rep at another consultants party. Maybe make it known you are a PC rep by wearing PC clothing or something, but don't talk to anyone about it until after the other consultants demo.

And then, when the other show is done, march right up to your "friend" and say "OK, I have my calendar here, when should we schedule your PC party you've been wanting to have??" See what she says to that!
