Help Marie Get Out of Her Comfort Zone!

I just started selling jewellry in June. I sold to all my friends and family. Now I need to expand!But first I need to get out of my comfort zone (difficult!) and get over my shyness.

I want to contact social clubs to offer a jewelry presentation, and in return I would give a % of my sale to the club. I have a list of phone numbers but no contact person.

These calls would be cold.How would you approach the person in question? I need a script to get me started...I don't know what to say at all to get the conversation going. Help!I would really like for people to give a "script" example of what they say when they call people or organisations.

I think that doing presentations in social clubs will get the ball rolling as I could meet different people, probably get bookings and so on. I just need to know what to say to get started.

Any suggestions anyone? What ideas can you offer Marie?

Are Samples Really Worth It?

After reading another blog and the comments about samples, I thought I would start the debate on samples.

Here's the debate:

With today's technology allowing web surfers to view products and a business presentation online, are we wasting our money and time with those who request samples and catalogs?

What's your feedback and experience?
