Why did a fellow vendor leave the show to support me as a new consultant?

[PCTE2010]

So I was incredibly peeved today when I had to do a vendor show...set up my table and promptly had a PC woman tell me she was about to set up, but felt bad because I was already there.
The woman organizing the vendor show had told me I was going to be the only PC consultant there so imagine my surprise when another shows up!
Anyway, I felt bad because the vendor people basically screwed us both so I told her to set up next to me and we could split any leads we might generate and we'll both work at it. She said she'd think about it, and then I never saw her again.
Found out later she had been at this a while, and I'm a new consultant so she decided to leave so I could get my feet wet. Seriously unreal!! Makes me love PC...ended up bragging to another direct sales person with a diff company about how our consultants support each other in our business which I feel is SO true. Glad I joined PC. <3 my fellow consultants!

Glad the veteran was so gracious. You're right. PC ROCKS!

That was so awesome of her! I love the camraderie and generosity of PC! It's one of the perks of being with PC. Kudos to her!

Hi PCT... I have my first vendor market coming up on July 31st. So how did it go after you were on your own? Did you get lots of leads, orders, etc? Did you have enough stuff or too much stuff? Please share!

It was a very small vendor show, and not well-advertised
Ended up with one lead - who has booked and changed his show date a couple times already...ugh.
Got 3 or 4 orders, and I really only have my starter kit to work with. Also had ordered some "camp-friendly" items for my table because it was at a campground. It seemed to work well enough for what it was.

I also have a show coming up and wondered what kind of literature should you have besides the recruiting info. Also wanted to know what type of things should we take.

I always make sure I have several current catalogs, which I hide behind my table. I put minis or old catalogs out for people to take. I also make sure I have order forms and information about hosting as well as the upcoming specials with me.
