Hello, I'm wondering if we can claim a per diem rate when we travel to different towns to do shows? The one town in particular that I travel to several times a month is 90 miles each way, but I do not stay overnight (except once due to bad weather when I stayed with a relative). Does anyone...

If you live in an area that is a small town, has bad weather a lot, or realy bad winters, how do you book and hold shows continuously? Do you just wait until the weather is better and do a lot of catalog shows in the mean time? How do you keep your business going in these circumstances...

Okay... here's one! I am on vacation with my family in NY and saw my cousin yesterday who is a consultant in my downline. She is a hobbyist... works sporadically throughout the year when she needs some extra $$ or if someone asks her for a show. She lives in a town of about 3000 people...

I am trying to get a few more July. No luck I have called and called...still nothing. So my thought is to take books around town and leave them(hair salons, Dr office, dentist, and so on). If I collect enough orders maybe I will have a show. Has anyone done this and what is the outcome? Any...

Just curious--for those of you who have done an outdoor festival in a small town (ok more like 3 small towns that run into each other), how well did you do? Do you get many bookings? Or mostly just contact info on the slips? What did you do to set up? This would be two days on a weekend or I...

I am doing a show out of town (3.5 hrs away in the next state) for a friend's sister next month. I did one for the friend last year, just drove there and back in one day, so obviously claimed mileage, tolls, etc. This time, DH and I are going to make it a weekend trip and take advantage of...

I know that a lot of you have families, but maybe were in my situation prior to all of that...and maybe have some suggestions! Here is a little background on me:I graduated from a state college here in NY, about an hour from my hometown... in May of 2005. I had a great internship, and was...

I have been doing PC for a little over a year now. My husband is in the Navy and we just got transferred. My question is: Can any of you give me tips on starting in the new community? I have not been out to very many things yet, because it is really cold here. I really want to have a good summer...

I really need advice about how to get bookings in a different town than where I live. My town is very small and the town I grew up in is 30 miles away and has like 100,000+ people. Someone told me to do fairs in that area but the fairs are $600 a pop! Advertising is about $150 for one week in...

I'm doing a craft fair this weekend associated with the town festival. I have a few ideas. I'm trying to keep it nice and simple, so I'm looking for feedback and suggestions... -put a sticker on the back of business cards to offer other vendors 10% off anything ordered today at the fair...

2 of my dear friends in Florida and Texas are going to have a competitive catalog show through me- whomever sells the most in the 10 day period, gets a freebie from me. I've only had 3 cooking shows- I'm new. SO- this is my 1st long distance show as well as catalog/net shows- any advice? They...

What is the Town & Country website and the Merrill website addresses???:)

Which hotel are most of the activities held??

There is a town not far from where I live, and my pal had one of my first shows there for me. From that I've generated quite a bit of business for myself, as no one had ever heard of PC there. Two weeks ago I had a relatively good show. One of my customers then went on to mention to her...

since we no longer have town and country how can i get a personalized decal for my window?
