FACJeweller replied:

Its great to see that I am not alone in this challenge lol.

I booked two shows earlier & then went to the gym for an hour.

Now that I am totally exhausted, I am ready to attack my list of people to call.

How many people have you got down on your lists?

Also, I am open to swapping shows with you if you're interested?

I live in Dee Why, NSW.

Let me know :)

Good luck with your calls.

FACJeweller replied:

Hi ya,

Unfortunately I have had to do some other office work for my past two hostess' (held shows over the weekend just gone).  I have to then go to the post office to post some hostess packs that were booked at those shows, plus I then have to go to the gym for an hour...and THEN after all that is done...I can then concentrate on making those calls to get the challenge shows booked.

Wow...talk about a challenge...lol  Whose great idea was this anyway? lol

Me and my bright ideas lol

You are going great Karen!  Keep up the great work.

Watch out...I will sooon be right behind ya :)

I wonder how Deb is doing?  You watch, she will come on later with the whole challenge completed lol

FACJeweller replied:

Woo Hoo!!  Phew...mannn that was fun lol

Let me tell you about it.

I rang one of the hostess' that held her show last Saturday to let her know the following:

Kieran...with the 2 half price jewellery, the free jewellery based on your show sales,

the Hostess gift - Gold bracelet valued @ $85 plus the make up bag you chose...

You ended up with a total of $236.75 in FREE Jewellery just for holding your show with me!

Needless to say, Kieran was soooooo excited...soooo she booked another show !!!

Woo hoo :)

Im sooo happy.

Thats 4 shows booked!!

Bring on the challenge ...I say...Bring It On!!!! LOL

kathymollie replied:

Hi

Well what a day

I booked another this morning so thats 5 booked and 7 to go

Then my brother calls and tells me I need to get my 9yo over to Liverpool so that a friend can pick her and take her to Canberra

So thare went my day just walked in the door

Its days like today I wish I had a licence

So now I have lost the afternoon and still need to get another 7 bookings

I agree this fun watching my diary fill

Deb

thelilacangel replied:

Hi

Well I got to 5 booked yesterday and then everything went downhill

So in the 48 hr timeframe from 12.30pm Tuesday to 12.30pm Thursday i booked 5 parties

Thats 5 more than i had before i started the challenge

I have decided i am going to do the challenge again starting on Monday as i wont have any distractions as the kids are going to their father for the week

So if anyone would like to join me you are more than welcome

Deb

candlekaren replied:

Hi Ladies,

While I didn't quite get to the challenge of 12 parties, I did get 10 which I was extremely happy about! I also have another who is interested but hasn't confirmed a date yet, and one of my 10 is going to be a starter show!! Thanks so much for putting the challenge out there - you never know what you can achieve if you don't try!!

Karen

thelilacangel replied:

This challenge just showed me something which i have always known

I work better under pressure if the post had read go book 12 shows i would of eventually got around to it but it probably would of taken me a while however as it read book 12 within 48 hours i got off my backside and set to work. 

Im going to do this challenge again starting Monday as I only did 24 hours and booked 5 parties due to family committments and my health (came down with the flu and now battling with my asthma) so im taking the weekend to recover and then back into the full swing of things again Monday

Anyone wishing to join me and full your diary you are more than welcome

Hi Girls,,

well done.. 

i just want to say don't stress too much about getting 12 booking.. the fact that you all got over 5 is all you need now to make the business grow..

for example out of thos 5 bookings it should go...2 bookings, 1 booking, no booking, 2 bookings  1 booking. so you should have 6 bookings and then from there you will have 8 or so ..

i remember when i started the first 3 months were so so slow, but  then it all just comes together..

the only pressure now is you cannot go below what you have now in your diary..

you need to rebook from your shows and if you are not  booking from your shows then you have to evaluate.....

cheers

marina

FACJeweller replied:

Hi ladies,

I just wanted to say that all of you did extremely well!! :)
What you all achieved is impressive!!

I booked 7 shows & thats more than I had in my diary to start with.

With creating the Challenge & Goal Club, I can put more challenges up for grabs on a weekly basis.  I think we have proved that working as a team (even though in different Companies) we are able to achieve more with the support and friendly challenge of each other.

I thoroughly enjoyed it & excelled more than I thought I would in such a short space of time.  I will put this challenge out there again some other time :)

It was fun!  Thanks for joining in the challenge with me :)

If you would like more challenges like this one, don't forget to join the Challenge & Goal Club.  First official challenge comes through on Monday :)
