Here are just some the cast in my world: Me - The world revolves around me of course! 34, intellegent and capable but having made a lot of suspect decisions in my life now feel like I've got a lot to prove (to myself). No doubt you'll learn a lot about me as we go along! Gemma - My fellow Makeover Mate, my gorgeous younger sister. Likes to live the lifestyle of a footballer's wife but without the cash or the footballer. She's generous and kind and the kids just love her. Most revealing secret - she once tried a mushroom, oh, and didn't like it. Tom - My long suffering husband (poor man), seems to have blind faith in me and he seems quite happy to let me get on with it as long as he can persue his many sporting interests. He's always there with advice if I need it even if he's hanging off a rock at the time!(although whether I take it is to be seen, it'll be a first) . Daniel - My lovely 12 year old son - I've no doubt if he was head of the company we'd be cracking America by now, little brain box that he is. Our mum Jan - Head of Crafts. Greatly supportive, loves a good story - actually she should be writing this! An ex management whizz kid before giving it all up to sew bags for her lovely daughters. Our dad Bri - Our personal walking newspaper, dad loves to tell everyone about our venture - everyone knows dad, his name opens doors and his name alone can make a deal! He is supposed to be my gym buddy, however, I've got to join him first! The question that is on my mind today as always is how I am to take our business up another level? So far we've had what I would call a moderate amount of interest in our project. The parties we've done over the last couple of months since we started have all gone brilliantly and we've had word of mouth bookings from all of them. 2 months in and I thought we'd be millionaires by now. We've had some sales from our ebay store http://www.stores.ebay.co.uk/Makeover-Mates . I wonder if anyone would like to take a look at our shop, get a feel for what we are trying to create and suggest some things that would be good for us to stock. We are in the process of saving up some business earnings so we can become a stockist of the BarryM make up that we use at our parties so watch out for that in our store. Oh and our mum, who is always doing something for us behind the scenes has assembled a production line of friends and they are sewing us some funky bags to sell in the ebay store. No doubt you'll here a great deal about mum, she's a great character. We are waiting for our website http://www.makeovermates.co.uk to be ready - when you click on this link and it is there then this comment becomes irrelevent!! We've got a talented chap called Rob making it for us and we can't wait to see it. My tasks for today! -
- Post some items that we sold on ebay
- Try to get in touch with Gemma in Bulgaria to see what she's up to
- Wait for the email from Rob to say the website is ready!!!
- Buy some paint for the TShirt painting parties(x2) that we've got booked in this weekend.
