Mary Kay table for Teacher's Day

Today was Teacher's Day at local Staples and Office Depots. I was able to talk to the manger at Staples and set up a table outside with Mary Kay products.

All week I have been perparing and I was excited to for this event.

When I got to Staples, it looked like the people were waiting for a concert. When I arrived I called the manger so I could introduce myself and give him my business card. He did mention other people were inside selling other things.

As Thiago and I were setting up the table. I made an annocement about my table, which I am glad I did because little did I know there was a Sales Director from Mary Kay inside.

I was able to talk to people as they were entering and as well as they were exiting Staples. People did mention that someone was inside and that they had a different basket to raffle, but I didn't care. That made me want to get more business :)

In the end I had 18 Skin Care Survey's filled out and handed out a bunch of free samples. After the people filled out the Skin Care Survey they were able to take a free sample; Satin Hands, Color Card (eye shadow, blush and lip stick) or lip gloss (3 different colors).

I did not get any orders placed while I was at Staples but I did give the handouts out to everyone who walked by. The hand outs explained that if they place an order up until midnight they will recieve tax free and 10% off.

When I got home I was exhausted, I had a yummy frozen Margarita and took a nap. Then I picked a name out of the surveys and contacted the Winner. When I brought Nancy her basket she was so happy. She told me she was going to contact me to order some more blush and I reminded her about the 10% off she can recieve up until midnight.
