Organizing My Party & Tax Details with Spreadsheet

In summary, this simple spread sheet is a way for the host to remember a few things for their next party. They give out envelopes with items inside to guests that have booked a show with them in the next 6 months. If the guest books a show with the host before the 6 month period is up, they can look at the envelope and whatever is inside is ordered for them free at the show.

What is Book to Look?

Um. its something i got from someone else. I choose 10 items 10.00 or less, I just used a photo of them, cut them out and put them in envelopes. I give one envelope to to each guest, and say if you book a show with me in the next 6 months, you can look at the envelope and whatever is inside, i will order for you for free at your show...i haven't done it yet, tomorrow is my next show and i'm gonna try it there to see if i can get more bookings. Make sense?
 
When you do purchase it for the guest/host, just use the "consultant gift" category under the payment options on her order. P3 will automatically categorize it for your tax report print out from P3. Really no need to keep a separate log.
 
You also order it under the host at the party and receive the discount for which she qualifies. This saves you a little bit.

Good for you! THAT IS AWESOME! what items were you giving away?
 
I did a mixture of everything... I picked mostly my favorite products that I feel are essential to the kitchen... I did mix a DCB in there and that was the highest priced item.

Wow what a great result! I'd love to get 7 bookings! I think maybe I'll try this at my shows this week. But I don't think I can afford a DCB just yet. ;)
