Starting to Breathe a Little Now.....

[soccermama]

Well, really, it's all out of my hands now, right? I sent home the FUNdraising packs... I have flyers and notes and coupons EVERYWHERE in the school, a reminder will be posted in the school's newsletter..... now I'm just hoping this goes well!

I did get order #1 through my website tonight, so that eases my mind a little. At least ONE person saw the stuff! lol And a Mom at the school was pulling out of her parking spot this afternoon, saw me crossing the the street and pulled back in, then jumped out faster than I've EVER seen her move, just so she could get a catalog from me! LOL

::::::breathe in, breathe out:::::::: This will be a successful FUNdraiser (or at least not a complete waste of energy )

Attaching 2 more flyers I made up.....

Congratulations! I think it's a great sign that you already have an online order! May the fundraiser continue to pick up steam!!!

 

[soccermama]

Thanks! I'm thinking it's a great sign, too.... especially since it's open til April 11th! lol

Here's one of the threads about it: http://www.chefsuccess.com/showthread.php?t=18063

I was hoping to come home today after work to find more orders, but didn't. I guess I'll have to be more patient than that! lol I have found, though, that the majority of my online orders that I've ever gotten get placed in the late evening hours.......

I'm up to about $400 so far..... one of my good friends (also one of my BEST customers!) just placed her first order with the new catalog, so is making up for her lack of order last month! lol (yes, she orders almost every month!!! I love her! She keeps me in business some months )

I have only 4 orders, btw.... so this is a good average! lol Lots of people will still be ordering (all my friends will order at least a little, and I know there are LOTS of procrastinators who will turn their orders in at the last second! lol)

Celeste - I know where Cle Elum is , and I really like the coupons!

Good luck with your fundraiser!!!

 

[soccermama]

LOL! Not many people know where Cle Elum is My Aunt lives in Olympia... and I'll be there next week for the kids' Marimba group concert at the capitol building rotunda!

Thanks for the good luck. It's picked up slightly... this week is Spring Break, so I didn't expect to get any orders, but a couple have come through the website And EVERYONE is ordering enough to get those free dishcloths YIPPEE!!!!! Next week is when the orders should all come in... by Friday! And then I can get them entered and submitted by Sunday for payday on the 22nd! lol I might recruit a friend to come help me input the orders by reading off item numbers to me! lol

Think of those fun mid-season products you'll be earning too! Yay Celeste!!!

 

[soccermama]

Oh yeah! I actually timed the closing date of the FUNdraiser so I could earn them!!!! It's really the only show I have this month, because everyone is buying from the fundraiser..... but May & June should be good! lol
