Ever since my post titled, “Happy Holidays and Welcome to December the last month”, I have been playing around, trying to explain to my followers my Black Friday experience. I even have a post half way written, so I can just plop it onto this blog, and be gone. It is not easy being a business person.
One of my goals with this particular blog was NOT to write a blog post, have cute frilly words, give you guidance, and then when the hook is securely firm into your neck, I will hit you with 500 products you can buy from me, all with a low price of $1000 a package. It has never been my way.
So, when I talk to you about my Black Friday experience as a seller, it is MY experience. Nothing fancy about it. Can I tell you what I do when I am not writing a blog post? I have mentioned it several times, but for those who are just finding my blog, it would be helpful if you knew about people behind the blog.
I am not going into the whole, “when I was a little girl” type of story because I sort of fell into selling. I only figured out that I liked marketing and advertising 20 years ago, and it all started when I was a baby, and my parents told me that I would play during the television shows, but stopped when a commercial came on. OK, enough of that. Let’s fast forward…
It was really a failed attempted on getting marketing internship jobs that lead me to becoming an Independent Longaberger Home Consultant. I thought, “why am I acing an interview, and then suddenly they could not hire me. I understood that in order for a company to even offer an internship (paid or unpaid), they had to have money to do so. Every single one of the internships I interviewed for, offered me the position the day of my interview, but then turned around to tell me that through budget cuts or some other odd reason, the position was dropped. I thanked the interviewer, and reassure he or she that I am available, should the position become open again. One marketing firm I was interviewed 3 separate times.
