building and continuing my Business

I am still with Close To My Heart, celebrated 5 years in August of 2017. Gone through many ups and downs with building my business with them. But I am currently on an upswing and hopefully be able to keep it there. I have several people join my team and then leave, now I am rebuilding again. The next couple that I will be working with are all in different small towns. This means that coaching them and teaching them might be difficult if it wasn't for technology today. There are so many different ways now to connect with people in different areas of the country or world, it is simply amazing. I will use appear.in, I have my own channel there that is completely private that I can then show them different techniques, how to use tools etc.

Besides building my team I am also working on the class or customer side of my business. I have finally found a location that I can hold once a month all day crops at no cost. It is at a local Church, they just rebuilt their building and have a beautiful kitchen/multipurpose room for me to use. It has been great so far. I plan to donate a bunch of my supplies that I no longer use for their kids to craft with. It will be my thank you to them. It has been slow to get people there but each month I increase by one or two.

I have a huge event planned for NSD this year! So far I have had great interest, now I just need people to register and pay the fee and it will officially be GREAT. I have several draws planned from other local Direct Sellers to help them reach new customers too. So far 7 different companies will be represented. All proceeds from the sale of tickets for the draws will go to Operation Smile, which is a CTMH charity to help fix dental issues in 3rd world countries. The event will also be catered. I am super excited for this as I have been trying for the last 5 years to have one of these.

Next I will fill you in on other neat opportunities that have started happening for me.
