I closed a catalog show today and it closed at only $149.70. The lady didn't even have enough to count it as a show. I just got home tonight and she left me a message that her sister wanted to order the 7 piece executive cookware set, the 5 piece executive set and the 8" saute pan for a wedding gift. I am so excited that I wanted to share with someone. I am getting really close to the 7 piece set that I wanted for the Pan-O-Rama.
 
Don't you just LOVE those 'silver linings'?! Congratulations! Now, call that lady and see if she'll host a show.
 
Wow, congratulations on the new orders! It's always great to hear about unexpected sales, especially when they come from a previous customer. It sounds like you have a great relationship with this customer and her family. Keep up the good work and I hope you reach your goal for the Pan-O-Rama soon!
