It's S&D National Blitz Day!!
Definition of BLITZ from the Webster Dictionary: a laser focused hour, by a Stella & Dot Stylist, to book in-home Trunk Shows through phone calls, texts, facebook messages and personalized email reach outs.
The results are phenomenal, trust me!
Blitzes begin at 7pm/ET, 8pm/ET and 9pm/ET and are led by two of our very own RockSTARS! Allyson Feller Houchen (7pm) and Missy Hauck Bryan (9pm)
Dial In: (800) 747-5150 | Access Code: 6977091
POST a picture of your WHO DO YOU KNOW LIST to the RockSTARS facebook page to be entered for a STACK OF TRAYS for your display! Stay tuned for more FUN tonight from Cindy!
Print out your booking tracker and let's get READY TO BLITZ:
Words to say! Warm up 10+ gals prior to the booking blitz tonight!
Hi there, pretty lady! I Hope you are having a great 2016! I have beenthinking of you since I received the new Spring Collection from Stella and Dot. So many pieces are your style!!! Not sure if you know this but February 18th is National Drink Wine day (as if I needed a reason) and I am certain you and your friends would have fun celebrating that day! Friends gather together, have fun, and you end of with the hostess free shopping spree! I have a back up plan - Bachelor Monday, the 15th (or the 29th)… WINE is a must anyway!
I'll call you tonight to see what you think!

Hershey Kiss Follow up Words to Say
The "answer" to this is 188. Don't post the answer-- it could ruin it if your friends follow another stylist. Just post who is the closest person as being the winner. Make sure you rule out stylists. I also ruled out people who just hosted for me within the past month because I wanted to book for NOW.
WTS to the winner: Happy Tuesday Melissa!!! Congrats you were the closest guess to the correct answer for candy in the jar, 107. Wine & chocolate for you and 10 girlfriends in February coming up...maybe we can do a happy hour after work one day??!! Yay, so excited!! Let me know what day of the week is best for you!!
