I'm moving to Mass. then! Have room for me?? :D
 
Mine has gone down over the last couple years. I live in Michigan, and people just aren't spending as much. It used to be around $600, but now my average is $475.

The good news is that bookings have never been better!:thumbup:
 
Mine is around $700 - I live on Long Island -

I think Host coaching really pays off - I encourage my hosts to have outside orders - use my pws - (to get orders from around the country as well as NY) and over invite -
 
My career average is $636.

2006 was $556
2007 was great $740
2008 has gone down a bit to $590
 
Catalog shows: about $200 average...this is because I have a host that does repeated $150-$200 catalog shows for host specials - doesn't want to aim for more but it is repeat business.Cooking shows: about $450Note: Mine are com. sales - guest sales would have brought the average up, especially in February! I had some hosts pick big items at 60% off.Oh, and I'm in hick country in northern WI with a VERY active neighboring cluster of about 19 all in the small town of 8,000-10,000. So, I'm very pleased with my totals with them here too. It proves that small towns and number of consultants nearby doesn't really have as much to do with sales as you think!
 
catalog shows about $400
cooking shows between $755-$825
online orders about $80 small town about 20 miles form the Dallas Metroplex ,
