Working on a $1000 Week!

In my previous post, I posted my crazy schedule for last week. I wanted to give you a brief update on my progress.

Monday - the facial was okay but didn't sell anything.
Wednesday night - I had a skin care class and sold a litte over $150.
Friday night - I had a "Girls Shopping Nite" and sold a little over $300.
Saturday - I had one of my Christmas Open Houses but turn out was not very good. (My fault) But I did sell $260.
Sunday - I had a purse party at my house and sold another $75 dollars.

SO, so far I have sold around $780. My goal: $1000!!!! I have until Wednesday this week to sell $220.

So what does my week this week look like? Not quite that busy.

Monday - phone calls
Tuesday - X-mas stuff to office
Wednesday - More phone calls
Friday - Drive-by appointment at the Hospital

I have LOTS of phone calls to make!!! SO I better get busy.

Busy Week!

Sorry I have been away for so long. Things have been absolutely crazy!! So I have kind of fallen off the band wagon this past week or so, but this week, I hope to make up for that.

Monday: Facial at 9am
Tuesday: Phone calls for Open House
Wednesday: Skin Care Class at 6:30pm
Thursday: Pack for weekend
Friday: MK Girls Shopping Nite in Columbia at 6:30pm
Saturday: Open House
Sunday: RELAX

WHEW! I am pooped just thinking about it. I have no idea how I am going to pull all of this off. But believe me I will.

Also, don't forget that Wednesday night is the CMA Awards!!!!!! (Mary Kay is the Official Beauty Sponsor.)

My MK Office!

Okay here are pictures as promised from way back when. My office is still a work in progres but there is progress. I should have taken before and after pics but......

Before, my office had no work space what so ever. I did all of my Mary Kay work and scapbooking on the floor.

The above pictures are pics of me and my director, Renee, together at different events. She is such a blast!!

I added bright colors and bright pictures to livin' up the room. When I walk into my Mary Kay office, I want to fill motivated and powerful.

And now I do!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Harvest Fest Update!

Okay, so Saturday was the Harvest Fest 2008 in Downtown Jefferson City, Missouri. They were predicting a crowd over 10,000 people but I don't think that many actually came. Anyway, I had a Mary Kay booth there. This was my first year so I didn't have a clue as to what to expect. I was a little "low class" compared to some of the other vendors but that is okay next year I will know better.

There was two of us working the booth. Each of us left with around 10 or so names, which was okay. I had expected a little better turn out but that is the way things go. I did have one girl that was intereted in hearing more about selling Mary Kay so I am working on scheduling something with her in the next couple of days!!!

I am going to call the rest of the names this week and next. Keep your fingers crossed!!!

DREAM BIG!!!

Leads Update!

This week I made it a goal to call all 11 of the leads that I got at the Fall Festival a couple of Saturdays ago. I have 4 that I have to call again this weekend that didn't answer. I had 2 no's and I had one that already had a consultant but so far I have 3 bookings, another to put on my PCP. I thought that was pretty good! I am very excited about the other 4 that I have to call!

Tomorrow I have a Harvest Fest here in Jefferson City, MO that I am looking forward too. Me and another consultant friend of mine are going to have a booth there. They said that they are expecting around 10,000 people. I AM EXCITED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I will keep you posted on Monday to let you all know how it went and how many names I got.

Also, I promise to post pictures of my renewed office! I had to do something to get it organized and make it exciting and empowering when I walked in and now it does.

DREAM BIG!!!!!!!!!!!

FALL RETREAT!!!

We had our fall retreat this past weekend and it was AMAZING!! Our National Sales Director, Janet Tade, is phenomenal! We learn so much from her. Also, our area directors are outstanding! Each and everyone of them is so unique.

Hands go out to my roommates. We had a blast!! The poor pizza delivery boy didn't know what to think when he delivered to a room of 4 very giggly girls at 11pm at night. HILARIOUS!!!!

Our guest speak was from Corporate and her name was Nancy. She was Mary Kay's personal body guard. Yep, you heard me right SHE!!! She told some amazing stories of Mary Kay and who she was. Did you know that Mary Kay was robbed and tied up TWICE before she actually agreed to hiring a body guard, and even then she demanded on driving herself places. Nancy said that she would get phone calls from the body guards saying that they lost Mary Kay and she would ask them how they could lose her. When Mary Kay got to a stop light and it was yellow, she would floor and leave them in the dust at a red light. FUNNY!!

I love to hear stories about her and the company. It makes things so real.

So do you have a fall retreat where you live, if so what is it like? Who is your National?

Fall Festival

This weekend was our local Fall Festival. Of course, I had a booth there for my Mary Kay business. Our overall turn out was pretty good. I displayed a spa basket that I made up for a drawing incentative to get new names. There is another lady in town that also sells Mary Kay and we are really good friends so we did the booth together. Between the both of us we walked away with 3 or 4 bookings and 30-40 new names.

All-in-all, it turned out pretty good. Now, I have to get my butt on the phone and call those ladies to get bookings. YIKES!!!

Off to work I go!!
