Donna Salazar is going in a new directon

I wish her the best on her new chapter. I am sorry for her friends recent loss.

To be honest I like blogs that aren't specific and talk about a variety of things. I feel like I know the blogger better.

elannah- I don't like sales tactics either. I all about supporting my friends. I will be the first person at their new coffee bar or help promote their new album. "Friends" one time called my DH & I up to go out for awhile. My child was very ill that week. It was a horrible stressful week. My Mom told us to go and relax while she watched our child. "Friends" take us out and take us to the Amway's owners home that my DH was building at the time and then started selling us Amway. We were so pissed. Thought it was a really low blow when every one knew our child was sick and we were scared and stressed. DH & I now avoid sales tactic people like the plague.

I didn't even know who she was.

I found her post very ADd (as she said). She said she will no longer be posting about crafts. Except she will when she when she feels like it. And to showcase her product (? Never heard of her product). And once a month for 3m because she HAS to. And maybe at 3 am or 1 pm or just whenever.

I've found that people do that, obliterate their blog schedule when they think they have enough of a massive following that people will check their blog 24 hours a day hoping and begging for a new post. And that's rarely the case. That's usually when I stop going at all.

No skinnoff my back since I've never heard of her...

She is obnoxious about Pampered Chef. That is all I will say.

The interpretation I got from her last post I read was "I am not going to meet my monthly goals if you don't book parties this month. I have lots of openings, people". I was Ok done!

This is why I hate these home marketing jobs. I buy lularoe but I can't buy local because the blood hounds want me to sign up.

When I was a SAHM I couldn't go to a party and buy stuff without them assuming I needed a job. Mary kay, pampered chef, Tupperware.

Seriously. Sell me the stuff. I'll job hunt on my own.

I go through that too as a SAHW. I buy my items online or at the mall. I like a lot of Avon things. Luckily, when I have used local reps from Avon no hard sales pressures. Now, I just mainly order online because it is easier for me. Stampin Up I would love to go to SU classes. The demo's in my area are usually part of large church groups. When I have asked a local demo I have been invited to go to church. I am not joking. I have looked hard for a regular SU demo and only find church groups. That is life in the Bible Belt. Nothing against churches or religion. I am one of the religions your born into and don't usually convert. I get the hard sale to convert. The only demo I ever found that was not part of a church group retired the week I found her. My area is very church crafting oriented for MLM's. It is a lot of or was CM or CTMH. Now, I just order SU online. I do make large SU orders when I do order. It will be like $600-$1000 at a time. I know I am making an online rep's day and gave her a big surprise.

The only times I ever went to one of these hostess parties was with a girlfriend whose Aunt was selling something or other. We were only 16 and it was a bunch of her elderly friends that were really excited about the party. It was so fun and so cute to watch them. My girlfriend and I helped out at the party.

A friend of mine started selling jewelry from one of the MLM jewelry companies. She asked me to model the pieces. I never got a sales pitch but I got free jewelry. I still have some of it but can't remember the companies name. I also modeled for Avon which was fun. That was a local agency thing. I had fun to do that. Got to hang out a beautiful historic mansion.
