Do You Smell Smoke???

So here I sit, as it seems to be my permanent place at the computer. I believe my bum is asleep yet again from the hours of sitting here pouring over successful ways to advertise your business. I love the group the MOMPACK, those ladies have sent me some wonderful ideas, and then there have been some that have just gone totally over my head. I know due to my lack of height that is easy to do but that is besides the point.
I try so hard to give myself a break from time to time on the business but I just can't seem to shut my brain off. I spent 6 hours in the hospital today waiting with "family", on my best friends mom's operation, and all I could think about was working on my business. All I can say is thank goodness for unlimited internet on my phone.
Even when I try to take a break and watch a movie or tv, I constantly have my notebook beside me ready to right down any good ideas, promotional ideas, website ideas, or things I need to look up. Is this becoming an obsession?? I must just be an impatient person, for I know that this isnt going to take off in a day, or week, or maybe even a month.
I think the frusterating part is that I am so new to this area that besides his family I really dont have anyone here that would want to host a Spa Party. However, God bless him, Presley (best friend), talked to his mom who is a teacher, and she is going to coordinate a Spa Party for all the women teachers at work the week after school gets out because none of the kids are there, AND.... the women in the office that he works with, he has already asked one of them if I could host a spa party for them. Man he's sneaky..lol.
However, back on topic, geeze..lol...my business is all I can think about, even in my sleep, ways to improve, ways to advertise, making mental notes on where to set up a booth, that I believe I am beginning to smell smoke...lol. I keep being told to put it away for a few days, but thats the issue I can't.
Any suggestions would be FABULOUS!!!!!

Oh the possibilities!

After doing some research I come to find out that I am the only Jordan Essentials consultant active in the state of Oklahoma. There is one other woman but she isnt very active. Which means that the state is virtually my playground. What that means for me? I have the potential for making a killing here. My first start is to rent a booth at the local flea market. If nothing else that will get me some leads as to people wanting to host a Spa Show. After that I am going to do more research to find out where there are trade shows, expos, and craft fairs. Can you see the wheels turning?? I also learned that people don't necessarily have to be in the same state as you to sign up under me as a consultant. That makes the wheels spin faster lol.

My sponsor also gave me some good ideas for conversation starters. For example: If I go out to dinner to a resturant that is sit down and we have a waitress, get the lotion bar (one of our best sellers), use it or simply sit the tin it comes in on the edge of the table at the end where she comes up to. She told me that 9 times out of 10 this starts a conversation about it.

I finally got my business cards in and there is a stack in my wallet. I am going to pass those bad boys out as often as possible. I was also given the suggestion of the 3 ft rule. Anyone who comes within 3 ft of me hears about my business or products. Not really sure how to strike up those conversations but this is me, I am sure I could come up with something.

Stress

April is National Stress Awareness Month - Now personally I dont need a whole month to know where my stress lies. We do however offer an amazing line of Aromatherapy products. I know that I like to destress with a nice long bath, cup of coffee, and a good book. In that bath I use the bubble bath and within seconds I feel the days stress just melting away. The scent is not over powering like some I have smelled that about burnt my nose, but soothing and relaxing.
