Urgent Sell-a-Thon Stress: What Do I Do Now?

In summary, Debbie called Leslie and left a message asking if she had decided on her half price item. Leslie was up cramming for a test and was not able to answer the phone, but she did say that lunch time was still a good time for her to decide.

Okay, to add to my sell a thon stress (which I thought I was over).
I have a lady who won a 1/2 price item from my mystery host show. I have emailed her, she said she would make a decision at lunch. Still haven't heard back from her. I left her a message and told her that I have to close this tonight. I still haven't heard back from her.
What do I do now?????? I need to get this show closed!
 
close it by midnight---if she misses out get it on the next party---

I would give her the last chance call.
"Hello this is XXXX with Pampered Chef. I am calling to find out if you decided on your half price item. I am closing this show tonight and need to know within the next half hour what you have decided, if not I will have to submit and unfortunately you'll lose out on this great deal! Have a great evening, I look forward to hearing from you soon!"

Hopefully that works, if not too bad, so sad! :( Offer it to someone else who maybe placed a big order or anyone you can get a hold of before you close that show! Mass email for first come, first serve!

Debbie :D
 
She/you may return it if it isn't what she wanted. You/she can pick a different half price item once it arrives.

Thing is that is almost 10 p.m. here. I have never called anyone that late before.

I know I hate doing that too but it's an emergency. Believe it or not I called someone at 10 pm once, I didn't realize it was so late after getting the kids to bed and feeding all the animals for the night, I immediately apologized when I got her on the phone after looking at the time on my pc and she said it was ok, she had forgotten and was glad I called her.
Anyway, I'm not saying this will happen with you, she may see the caller ID and ignore your call because she either is not interested, can't afford to make a purchase right now or is not home. Either way you did your part, made the last ditch effort and she can't say you didn't try to reach her.
But whatever makes you feel comfortable. She did say lunch time and it's way past that so I think it's safe to offer this to someone else. That's what I would do, it's a hassle to have to return something and then hunt her down for the item she wants later on.

Debbie :D
 
Can you text message her? I've done that with a host at 11pm and she texted me right back! I knew she was a "texter" tho. GL!!

Good for you, Leslie! I don't get people though. You're giving them a great deal like that and they keep putting you off! I'm glad it all worked out for you! :)
