Okay I called HO and they said, "Oh we don't see them under your name, so wait a few days and call again." I turned in 2 shows as early in the month as I could so I could start showing the cups. Its been 11 days since I submitted my 2nd show:(
 
Got mine on Saturday and I submitted my last show on the 14th.

Christa,

Were both of your shows dated as March shows or was one or both a February show? To earn this incentive the shows had to be HELD AND SUBMITTED between March 1 and 15.

Beth,

Ooohhhh! I knew I was getting them because I had 2 shows between Mar 1 and 15. However, one host cancelled and I turned in a catalog show but you're right-the catalog show was Feb show:( :( :( I had a show 3/15 but she wasn't ready to close that night.
waaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!
 
Display ideaI got mine in last week and they are adorable. I have a show this Saturday and I plan to use them.

Here is an idea you guys may want to do:

Right before you close the demo., explain to your guests that you have a small suprise. From the kitchen comes you holding the the two cute pink ploka-dot cups. One can be filled with ice cream and the other with a small bouquet of flowers, or you can place the small whip with a ribbon wrapped around it inside a bowl. Place a small card on the saucer plate next to the bowl. Explain to your guests that these bowls/suacers are to raise awareness for breast cancer and that they would make the perfect gift for someone they may know who has or who has beaten breast cancer. They could give them to their friends/family during the month of May.

This may raise your sales and assist with show bookings.

(You could also explain that in May, hosts recieve them at 60% off - great savings for an awesome cause.)

Hope this helps,
Cynthia
 
I love that idea! Most people know someone or knows someone who knows someone w/ breast cancer or a cancer. Also use these for all the fundraisers that are coming up
 
I got mine today! They are so CUTE! I have them sitting on the bar/table in my kitchen. They make me feel so happy when I walk by them! I just love 'em! I want more!!

I thought they were only available to hosts? :confused:
 
they are only available to hosts in May. Consultants had a chance to earn them this month. By showing them now you should be able to generate bookings for May because people will host a show in order to purchase them. I plan to host a show and get another set.
 
Right, I earned mine - they're cute! I was just making sure, because I thought the previous poster was talking about showing them to increase her sales from guests. But guests can't buy 'em. :)I plan on holding a show in May for myself as well, to get another set, too! :)
 
I wasnt all that excited about them untill i recieved them. They are sooooooooooo cute!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
I love them and can't wait to show them off at shows!
