That's exactly how I book Susan.
My kids are with Dad this weekend so I have shows Friday night, Saturday night and Sunday at 1pm...whew!
 
At one time I booked up every weekend and one night a week for an entire month. I submitted TONS of shows and earned SO much money, but man I was burnt out!!

Best of luck!! I find the closer I do the shows together, the better I do at them (my own performance so to speak).

Best of luck to you.
 
Must be a good weekend, I have three shows over the next four days also. Friday is my only free night. Then Sunday will be none stop between family stuff and a show that evening.

Good luck with yours!
 
Me too!!! Tonight, Tomorrow night and Sunday Brunch - AND I am tired already!!! Good luck all!!
 
I have done that once and it exhausted me, so I try to space them out.

Godd luck to all of you with your shows. I just have 1 tomorrow night, hope to get some more bookings since my next one isn't until the end of the month :(

I had 6 shows in two weeks last September. The shows themselves didn't burn me out but all the host coaching, follow up calls, closing shows, etc did. I had so much to do with so many people in so few days!

I had my first show tonight, $860 and counting! She wants to beat my high total of $1140. I'll let her if she really wants it.

Make sure to let us know how yours go Lindsay.
 
This isn't my busy weekend as I purposely didn't book Friday or Saturday as my son (we coach) is in a soccer tournament this weekend. I did have one tonight though (GOT 2 JUNE BOOKINGS!!!), and I have another on Sunday. I then have one next Thursday. The last weekend of the month is my crazy schedule though. I have one the 29th, 30th, 31st (2), June 1st (working a vendor show) and one on June 2nd (I booked today!) WHEW! That week I'll be really dead!
 
Awesome guys!

Well, my show last night had 7 people with sales of $400! Amazing!
Then tonight, I left with $1301 in sales!! YEAH!! I'm stoked!!! My last one for the weekend is tomorrow! We shall see. She's expecting 13 tomorrow at 2. I'lllet you know what happens!! I made $390 tonight and she still has orders to get!

Congratulations!

I love doing back to back shows like that. I paid my 6 year old to prep catalogs, order forms, and door prize slips. He re-loaded my clip boards for me between shows. :)

Thank you!! I'm really excited b/c last year was my first year for career club so to be sitting at a new table is AWESOME!!

My show is at $1392 but I have a call into a lady who ordered one of each sheet pan. I'm hoping to get her to swap those out for something else.:)

How did everyone's 3 shows go this weekend? My first is around $880 with more orders to come, 2nd around $650 with more orders and my one yesterday is only at $90! I feel pretty good for getting all those shows done. I honestly wish I could do three every week! I would have to quit my full time job but that's the final goal anyway.
 
That's great about all those shows!
In the fall, I normally do one on Friday night, 2 on Sat and one Sunday! Every weekend!!!:eek:

Oops, guess I didn't go back to the first page!

For those of you who haven't tried the Club House Chicken Squares, it's a must! It's such a simple wonderful recipe that can be modified to different tastes. It shows alot of products and can get great group interaction.
