Lesson Learned

For months I’ve been putting off calling some leads I got at a bride show way back in January. Tonight I finally coughed up the courage to just get on the freakin’ phone! Well, I made five phone calls. The first person I called told me she has a consultant. I know I asked her if she had one when I met her. She said she is surprised she even checked “yes” to a facial! She was very nice. My second call was my most promising. This woman can’t do an appointment now because she is moving. She is having a house built literally around the corner from me. She said a makeup party would be a lot of fun to get people over to her new home when it’s ready. So, she is keeping my number. Of course, I’ll call her in a month or so to follow up. Third, I called the bride who won my gift certificate. Her sister is now a consultant. That’s what I get for freaking out and waiting! I told her to make sure she tries the new minerals! Next, I called another bride who just flat out said she decided on NO MAKEUP for her wedding! What?! Well, at this I decided to call her matron of honor who also entered in my drawing. She was a very made up lady. Not overly done at all, you could just tell that she cares a lot about her appearance. She had a great manicure the day I met her. This woman’s number was disconnected!

So, that was my phone call experience. But, you know what? I’m glad I got on the phone. It showed me some things. (more…)
