I got Level One of submitting two shows. And looks like I will get the same for Dec.
 
Level 2. Really didnt work as much as I needed to. I am packing my calendar for January though.
 
I am just shy of $6k but I think I'm going to make it. I have a couple cattie shows yet to close.
 
After my show tonight I will hit Level 2 $1500.

I'm still working on getting one more show for December, so I hit that incentive. Maybe at my bazaar tomorrow, I will get a Dec booking.
 
Just getting ready to call a host to close the show that will put me over $6000!!!

Whooo Hooooo!!!
 
I about $300 shy of Level 2 ($1500). I really thought I would get there because I have one more catty show. I told her it HAD to close by December 5th, but her sales are only at $65 right now. Darn!! I did submit my 2 shows at least.
 
I submitted my 2 shows. I am hoping to do much better in December. Already have 4 shows booked in the first week and a half!
 
Level 1... not to far from Level 2 but just no more for this month anyway...
 
I hit the $3K level. That was my goal and I'm glad I got there! One of these days I would like to hit the top level, but today is not that day!

Congratulations to everyone who will be enjoying the new products (even just 2) for FREE!!
 
Level 2. I was sooo close to Level 3, but alas, it seems it is not to be.
 
Right now, I've officially hit level 1. But when I submit a fundraiser I've got open, I'll have hit level 2.I love free stuff! :love:
 
Hit the $3k level and getting the Directors Benefits Box ($6k level). LOVE FREE STUFF TOO!!!!!

Ann have you packed yet? :)
 
Level 2! And I didn't think I'd make that level! WHoohooo, love FREE!
 
Level 1 for me
 
I have a ? that is a little off subject, so please forgive me, but for those of you who hit level 3 and did 6k, HOW do you do it? Do you just pack your calendar? How many shows do you do a month? Are alot of those 1k shows or what? I have always been amazed at those of you who reach 3,4k a month consistently and this is the first time in almost 5 yrs I hit 3k...
I do think alot of it might be location, I don't live in an area where customers like to spend over $25, but still...
Any tips would be helpful and also what do you guys demo to have such high sales? Sorry for all the questions! I'm just amazed by all of you!
 
I'm at $4,400 for the month. I'm so excited to have hit level 3! YAY! :D
 
I hit Level 3 was hoping for level 4 but 2 of my shows canceled on me and my catty shows never returned my phone calls

I did a ton of shows - here are the totals for them:Catalog shows:
1) $709
2) $358
3) $190 and counting - closing todayFundraisers:
4) $130
5) $320
6) $364Cooking Shows
7) $388
8) $1018
9) $569
10) $708
11) $225
12) $648
13) $746
14) $120 - still gathering orders - supposed to close todaySo - as you can see, my shows are all over the board - some high, some low....
My most popular show - and the one that garners the most bookings - is the 30 Minute Chicken Show. The DCB is #3 on my top sellers list. My location, as far as economically, is the pits. I live in an area with high unemployment, and every facet of the market has been hurt. I actually think that right now this is helping my bookings! People are looking for a deal, and also having to eat at home more - so they are willing to book and buy because the can get stuff for free and discounted, and they need the tools so they can prepare decent meals at home!I've also been selling for 5 years - and this is my highest month ever. I routinely have made level 3 for sellathons - but this is my first time making the highest level - but this is also the most shows I have ever done. I had 12 shows total in Oct - and that was a $5330 month. Last November I did 8 shows and had $4400 in sales - so I guess it's all in the #'s!;)
 
Filling my calendar and doing good host coaching. That is my secret. The main thing I coach my hosts to do is to invite as many people as possible, remind them like crazy, and collect orders from people that can't come. That is their main responsibility. The recipe is SOOOOOO secondary.

I actually choose one recipe for the month and don't give my hostess a choice unless she booked off someone else in the same month--I don't want to repeat. This way my show is polished because I'm doing the same demo over and over and I can focus on connecting with the people. The personal connection goes a long way.

Oh, and I also have show totals all over the place. My highest show this month was $1306 and my lowest was $356. I also had $359 in online orders from people I don't know--Directorship has its privileges!!! :)

Becky, I am so glad you posted your show totals. It makes me feel so much better. Mine are all over the board like that too. One day I have a $1,000 show, then the next two are like $250.00. I guess I just need to take them as they come and be happy I have some shows coming. I reached level 2! I love free stuff!
 
Good idea Deb. I am so wishy washy. I like to make everyone happy and offer a variety. In January I want to start offering one recipe. It makes it easier to mingle with guests when your not having to keep reading the recipe your preparing.
 
I got the two show incentive and the $300 in freebies with $4500 in sales this month.
 
When I close the last of my November shows tonight and transmit it with last night's show, I'll have earned level 3: $3,000 in sales. Yippee!
 
Level 2!!! Woo Hoo!!!
 
Level 2!! Looking forward to the goods!!
 
Level 2!! I am so excited, as I didn't even get to Level 1 in the summer! Can't wait to see what the new products are.
 
Level 2! I'm excited to see what's coming out, I don't think I can wait until January!
 
Level 3 a little over $3,000 in sells!!!
 
I didn't think I'd make it , but it looks like it's the $3000 level for me, too!! Wahoo!!

And, on a personal note, I'm even getting the $4000 in personal sales for the first time ever!! Double Wahoo!!

Awesome job everyone!! I can't believe all of those high numbers!!

As long as I get my last show closed out tonight that I"m expecting to...I'll be a little over $4000 for the month, so I earned level 3 of the SAT. I still will have two Nov. shows to close by 12/5. If by some miracle my show tonight has sales of $1200 (or last night's host gets a TON more outside orders), I may even hit $6000 for the SAT but I doubt it. I can always dream! As we have heard about those fluke last minute orders people have gotten lately, you just never know!!!!

Way to go everyone! I can't WAIT to learn all the new products.

By the way, this was my breakdown of show totals so far that would be part of the SAT:
K 236.20
C 184.34
K 161.06
K 403.00
K 1056.17
K 518.66
K 160.52 (she supposedly still has $300 in outside orders to give me)
C 291.45
K 232.95
C 549.87
K 464.25 (still to close - hopefully she'll get $200 more in outside orders!!)

Oh and $275 individual orders/leads so far this month on my website!!

Wow, talk about ALL over the board! This has been a weird month. These few extra catalog shows have been a huge help. And one more show tonight. My advice when you know you have a big goal you want to reach in a certain month is to pad your big Cooking Show schedule with catalog shows. Those will really help, but don't count on them to be huge. Woo hoo!!!!
