Hi Everyone,

I'm excited cause I booked another August show today (that's 3 for me along with a vendor event) - I had a friend who's a teacher who wanted to do a show before school started again and with my persistence in calling her - she's finally booked for August 16th - hoping to generate lots of bookings from my 2 shows this week and 3 shows in August.:)
 
yay G! That's great! I need more August myself (only have 2) want 2 more so I need to contact those who said maybe for august! and the other list of maybes I've accumulated that I haven't contacted yet to get my fall filled!

Hey Heather,

Good luck getting more August shows - I was just glad someone finally called me back! I'm still working on filling up my fall as well (have 1 in September so far). I have a list of maybe's myself - hoping that they still want to do a show (or maybe I can just get some bookings at these upcoming shows - which would make it a whole lot easier - if people could only commit to a date! - not like we all haven't been down that road:)
 
Good job - I wish I had booked a little more for July but I think I have the two shows that I need
 
Congrats Gina! Isn't it a good feeling to fill up your calendar the way you want? (I think August will be the 1st time I will actually do that!)

Got another show booked from my show tonight and it's for September! I'm up to 2 right now in September and I'm going to follow up with my guests from tonight about possible others. One lady may have her niece do a PC bridal shower (her daughter did one in April - different consultant) and she said she pretty much got the catalog (9 boxes in all) and $300 in free product on top of all her gifts! So I'm definitely keeping my fingers crossed!
