Sent out the letter last night that Janet posted - with a couple changes. Woke up this morning to this:

Becky,
I ordered the carving set w/platter. Host bonus for Sept. is 60% off a set or cookware piece. The apple corer / slicer thick slice rod is on sale for $2.25. I hope that you are having a lovely summer and enjoy this beautiful weather.

Take care,
Peggy Xxxxxx
(P.S. We have moved, our new address is ......)



Hopefully more comes today! Off to a good start though!
 
I just got my online activity report for the past 24 hours....$142 in sales! Whooo Hoooo!
 
I sent my e-mail out last night, and have received an on-line order of $84 and 4 phone calls about orders. Thanks Janet for the reminder.
 
Oh - and I got a reply to the email from a past guest who wants to do a catalog party still for August!:thumbup:
 
Thanks Janet :) I like the idea of doing a contest and hadn't thought to do that before. I now have 2 bookings one for Sept and one for Oct that I didn't have before and 5 people emailed about the contest, 2 of them saying that they placed orders :) The two bookings were looking around while doing the contest!

See, we gripe that it isn't interesting to us, but spin it positively and you'll hit SOMEONE out there who likes what you don't. :)
 
I promise not to gripe anymore! LOL I got 2 orders today!

Yep! Out of $142 in orders - $100 of it was the Platter and Carving Sets!
 
Thanks, Janet. I added a reminder about the retiring items, and sent the e-mail just a few minutes ago, so probably won't orders (if any!!) until tomorrow. Praying this works, because nothing else has this month!!

...and THAT has been on there for more than a month!

So, customers either didn't look last time OR YOU HAVE TO GIVE THEM A NEED OR USE FOR IT! ;)
 
Thanks Janet! I just finished sending mine out! I am now off to bed and hope to wake up tomorrow to lots of orders and emails. ha ha :)
