Ijust saw our company newsletter for December and I was #1 in sales for the month and YEAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Holy cow I can't believe it!!!!! Plus I broke a company record with more than $17,000 in sales in 4 months (ok, for some of you that's not much, but we're still newsmileys/smiley2.gif). I'm just flying now!! Plus the most exciting part wasn't my sales but my Unit, which was brand new last month since I promoted Dec. 1 was the #4 unit!!! They are so awesome! smileys/smiley32.gif Now I really can't wait to get to Las Vegas next month!! They'll be awarding us all there and I can't wait to see what we get!

That is such a tough question and I get asked it a lot. I pick the dates I want to work, and I rarely let people book out farther than 5 weeks. That's a biggie. I play booking games at my parties, which helps get those "fence-sitters" to commit to a party. And I try to have fun and enthusiasm too. My parties are quick lasting 90 minutes usually (including order time) and I think our products have a lot to do with it too. The company offers great specials and I've offered some too in slower months. But lately I haven't had to offer any at all, because I'm nearly booked (and the company specials keep getting better). I always have catalogs with me and I leave them everywhere. While that's not the best way to gain customers, it's rare to have people call me, it does get the company name out. Oh, another big things is events, craft shows, fairs, etc. I did a lot of those this past year and they paid off big time!
