Thanks 
Now that my family flew back out of town today, I can refocus on the calendar. I'll hopefully have the qty field for checks and cash in today, and Leslie, I'll be in touch with how to access those orders.

I think Leslie is doing a great job with the cross posts and trying to keep the calendar on the forefront. Y'all know how you can help her? If you see her Cross post sliding down the page, just give it a little Bumppy Bump back up to the top..... I know she'd appreciate it... we'd all appreciate it... and the KIDS would REALLY appreciate it the most!!!
Come on WOR !!!! Get your Pom Poms out and start cheerleading !!!!!

Ok, Kevin and I have been talking about the lack of interest this year......we've only got a bit more than $2000 in the Paypal account so far...and we think we have a good idea for generating more sales off the list.
What if I do a flyer/poster thing with a shot of the kids surrounded by thumbnails of the 16 photos, and a small write up about the good work that Rennwish is doing, with little tear off stubs at the bottom giving the ordering website. How many of you (not just our calendar girls, but any or all of you!) would be willing to take such a thing around your area and maybe post it on the bulletin boards of your local grocery markets, liquor stores, convenience stores, small auto parts stores, laundromats, pizza places and the like? We have this really nice convenient ordering system this year thanks to Cassandra, and the calendar has come out so much better this time around, and I have Kevin and Katie to help me do the shipping....I feel we can handle getting a lot more than 500 out the door.
How many of you have forwarded the website around to your family and friends? I've sent a write up to everyone on my contact list, just about....if you want to use the text I used, feel free to ask, and I'll forward the email to you.
We're thinking that just advertising to Rennlist is a good effort, but more can be done. Much more. We need to get the word out to more than just our own bretheren (and sisteren (sp??))...and the end of the ordering window is fast coming upon us.
WE HAVE TO DO MORE!! I have to do more. This is not enough...I feel we can do much, much better. This is a fabulous calendar this year, and we should be able to increase sales over last year, since it's our second year in publication....and instead, it's flopping.
Who else is willing to help? We need more mouths speaking up and spreading the word. WE NEED HELP. THE KIDS NEED OUR HELP!!
Cassandra, any chance your publisher would be willing to print something up? If not, that's perfectly understandable...but I'll do it on a regular color printer, if necessary... And I think we may need to extend the ordering window beyond the 10/1/08 deadline a bit. A lot of girls have gone to a lot of trouble to get this calendar together, we should be going to at LEAST that much effort to get it sold too.
So who's with me? If there is ANYONE who is willing to take such a notice around your area, please send me a PM with your address, and one way or another I'll make sure you get something to hang up.
Thanks!
Leslie

I think thats a great idea Leslie. I would want to be willing to put it at my work but it'd probably not go over too well. Its a really upscale retirement home & unfortunately, I imagine that many of the elderly lady clients might not view the calendar pics with the same level of enthusiasm that others would. I can just hear the cackling hens! Now the men residents, they would most certainly love it!
