I had show yesterday at noon. Well, everyone except the host & myself, forgot to change their clocks! The host made reminder calls, while I took care of her outside orders until everyone showed up. She had $594 in outside orders... only 3 people showed up for her show ... BUT - we closed out at $1,025, got one booking and a recruit lead!! We did the Ham & Cheese Brunch Squares as an interactive show, and it was a big hit! Just had to share with you all.
