What are you placing your PWS calendar?

Or do you leave it blank? :)

Me too....In fact, now that December shows are over, I need to go update mine and put in my January shows.
 
I put everything in mine. I like to have my entire calendar with me at shows, so I just use it as my personal one too. I think it's true, that people like to book with busy people. Having everything in mine makes me look very busy!
 
I put available show dates and upcoming shows. I also put our cluster meetings.
 
Oh... available dates... good grief... I love this site! Thanks for all your ideas!
 
I put the shows that I have done and the recipes I've prepared on it. At the beginning of each show I announce that if they want a copy of the recipes I'm making, they need to visit my website. It's been a great way to generate traffic there.

How do you access it at shows? I have had a couple shows where I had internet access, but not most - just wondering how you get to your calendar?

What a dork I am. I completely missed the PWS part of your question! I thought you were talking about our regular consultant planner. Sorry!

I put available dates and upcoming vendor events.
