WOOOOOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOOO!! Day one done...70 phone calls in 10 hours! A lot of time is spent with each call checking skill levels, writing a hard copy, entering on PC too, then a double check before moving on. Even with 3 of us working today it is slow going!
We didn't start calling until 10:30am (1/2 hour late) because we had to have everyone's number at hand to start...so we had to go back to entries to get info.
All in all, everyone was super happy with classes! Remember, there were 24 spots for each featured artist and there are 75 people coming already including staff. That means only 1 in 3 got a Melanie or Rose class!!!
Even staff had the same limits, one class per featured artist, 3 torch classes, so we have to follow the same guidelines you did!
BUT, they will all be demoing at least one night and there will be a schedule of these done by Jill Knapp this year in the next few weeks. After staff sign up to do evening demos then attendees will be able to jump in and show us some more (great way to find our new teachers!).
Anyway, poor Sue and Ashely are dead....I am wiped out (we all started at 7 this morning!). So...I am off to a nice bubbly HOT spa with a large glass of Merlot. The rest of you will get calls starting at 10 am tomorrow...we have about 20 more calls to make.
BIG thanks, hugs and sighs of amazement.....you all rock! deb
