Thanks for all the congrats!!

My secret.........shhhh...here it comes. LUCK!! LOL. I have been doing this for 4 months now and most of my shows are around the 400 mark. This last one, the girl used to be a PC consultant many moons ago and she basically knew how to get people to either order, and or come to the show.

I am still a little bummed because I have not gotten one single booking, and I haven't made it out of my circle yet. I hope I get there soon!!

Thanks again!

Have you made morning after calls and asked everyone that was at her show if they want to host?

 

[Paula R. Lewis]

Congratulations!!

As for customer care calls, you may also want to try asking for referrals. If you ask people for help, they're usually willing to try!!

Good luck,
Paula

I was thinking about waiting til they got their products and then doing the customer care calls and asking then. Is that too long to wait???

If you ask before you submit the show then you can add them as bookings to the show. If the show has been submitted then sure do the CCC a few days after they should have received their product but confirm with the host that everyone has their product before making the call as it would be embarrassing to call asking "so what do you think about x..." and find out it is still sitting at the hosts house.

I did ask at the show, and I got alot of maybes. So I did set it up on the show that they were going to host, just in case they actually did and so my host could still get the benefits. I thought it would be safe than sorry.

That works too as long as you put them in as real bookings and not "possible" bookings. Good luck, may those maybes turn into real dates.

Yes, thank goodness I have a great recruiter!!! She coaches me very well. I am just having a hard time because I have just moved here about 2 years ago, and in this house only a year, and have not meet alot of people. So my small circle of friends have been my first 4 shows, but NO ONE other than my friends have wanted to host.

I believe it will happen soon, but it's just taken alot longer than I had anticipated. Not to mention August is a hard month to book shows!!
