2. Book your September NOW...Don't wait until September.
This will now be my 5th year going through a September so please trust me when I say "Book Your September Now." I've done it both ways: booked Sept. shows in August to feel comfortable and coming from a place of abundance; and booking Sept. shows IN Sept. which is stressful, frustrating, and truly didn't really build much momentum in my business until October. Less thinking...more doing...just GO FOR IT! Here are a few ideas:
What's your message?:
What's your message?:
- We have a gorgeous NEW collection out!
- Our engravables have been a runaway bestseller and they're the perfect gift.
- Women like to reconnect with their friends post summer jaunts. This is the perfect excuse. They can catch up and learn about the new fall trends plus get personal styling tips and check off their gift lists early.
- Great way for women to meet the other moms in her kids' classes (drop off and drop in coffee and style!).
- Vendors like to bring people back into their stores--offer up an event to draw attendance at local restaurants, salons, boutiques, etc.
- Email your Spring customers.
- Pick one hour today or tomorrow and make those calls. Or do 15-min increments, or 2 calls/day for the next week. Whatever you do PICK UP THE PHONE AND CALL :)
- Wear your new collection out and about.
- Pack your bag with mini lookbooks and sticky notes to get people's contact info when they compliment you.
- Share your excitement through your words and your smile.
- Devote some S&D time each day through High Value Activites (HVACs). Then move on and enjoy the season!
