At a show a few months ago, I met this great girl who had plenty of questions about the biz but mentioned that she lives in a basement apartment in her dads house and doesnt drive. We never had an in depth conversation past that but I'll be doing a show for her tomorrow night and I noticed that the last few emails and newsletters that I sent out that she has clicked on the opportunity tab a few times. We've been away for the past week and a half and i just got back so I said I'd call her tonight. I want to offer her the opportunity since she seems interested but what to I say with regards to her not driving or having a car? Any helpful suggestions would be greatly appreciated!!
 
I think PC could be a great way for her to pay for a car! It all depends on her interest. Definitely follow up with her, I wouldn't even mention her not having a car. She's probably been dealing with it for a while, it is really up to her how she deals with not having a car. She might take the bus to homes, or her parents may be supportive and drive her places. Be supportive and offer suggestions, but only if she asks.
 
I understand where you are coming from. I have had a few people interested and don't drive. I personally just keep them updated on what is going on. I have thought about suggesting doing catalog shows only but I am not sure how good that would really be.

Best of luck and i will be following this thread!
