*** TOOT
YOUR HORN TUESDAY ***
Each Tuesday, I invite you to share an accomplishment from the previous
week. Something *stamping related* that you are proud of,
something that worked especially well at a workshop, high workshop
sales, interesting ways you've gotten bookings, etc, any activity
toward building your business (for some of us, it is as simple as
making customer care calls or organizing our workspace!).
Everyone who "Toots" will have their name entered into a drawing each
week. Sometimes we just want to scream about something great that
has happened and don't quite know who to share it with. This will
be your opportunity to share it with all of us who can truly appreciate
it. So . . . . . get ready for this Tuesday and every
Tuesday from now on. Do something to "Toot" about! Send
your posts to the Stampy
Wackers TOO Yahoo Groups to be entered into the drawing. Use
"Toot" in the subject line. Use this link to join.

*** BUSINESS QUICK
TIPS ***
"One is Better Than None"
Here is an example of how "One is Better Than None". I had a
Stamping 101 Class scheduled for Monday 1/30. I made calls last
week and only had one person registered. I made return phone
calls again on Monday and had no one else sign up for the class
(although I did get 3 people to sign up for the Feb 15th class!).
With the attitude of One is Better Than None, I taught the class
to the one person registered. This gal walked through the door
and said "Am I the only one here?". "Yes," I responded, "for
tonight". She mentioned we could have rescheduled. I
explained this is what I enjoy doing whether for one or many in a
class. We had a great time, she was able to ask many questions,
and she placed a $50 order to earn a Sell-a-bration set for free and
signed up for my Quick Cards class. Had I rescheduled, how much
in sales would I have had that night? None! How much
customer service would I have provided that night? None!
It is always better to service one customer than to service no
customers. Start with just one!

of the One-on-One from Belinda Ellsworth.
