Is it really the end of my 60 day journey?
Nope!
It's only just begun...with every action I take, it brings me closer to my goals.
It's been a long time since I've posted and there is good reason. Or are my reasons just excuses?
Since my last post, I've had some good success and not so good success. The fundraising with 2 churches are still going on and are in the process of introducing our gourmet candles to more events within the parishes. This is a good thing, I've always believed that good things come with time and patience.
I thought I had one fundraiser in the bag, but lost that one to another product. I will still keep in touch with them about using our candles in the future.
Am I bumbed? I was for an instance, yet this is what business is all about. You win some, you lose some, yet you can't let things like this get you down or you'll never get to where you want to go.
I've always known this, although it feels good to say it again...that my candle business is one of the best things that I've done as far as business goes and that with each and every thing that I do to get my name and product out there in the marketplace it will come back to me ten fold.
I've done 3 vendor shows in October and all were a great success as far as I'm concerned. One of my shows gave me 210 leads that I'm still calling. It was a first time exposure to that area.
One thing I've learned on my journey is that it's ok to work my candle business around my life. I'm not racing anywhere. Because of the work I did in the beginning with the Internet, shows and etc my business is growing every month. I'm so glad that I found this candle company.
Our company has excellent training and leaders that have everything we need in place to help us with our success. The only thing is, is that we are the only ones that can truly get it done.
I want to thank everyone that has sent me emails, posted and called to let me know that they have been following me and wishing me success.
I do hope that in some way I can inspire you to 'just do it' and know that there will be ups and downs as there is with anything. It's all about attitude, you must let go of the outcome and keep on truckin.
My blog will take a somewhat of a turn from now on. As time goes on I'm going to share with you some tips and resources that I share with my team in hopes that it will help you also.
Keep an eye out for these coming soon...
TIP: Give yourself credit for taking the step in having a home business and time to create a dynasty for you and your family.
Cheers,
Susan
