So here is our first newspaper article. One more should be coming out on Saturday.

http://www.county29.net/cms2/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=6185&Itemid=1

One kind of funny thing in the article. I told him that SR is on target to start grossing $500,000 a year. It showed up in the article that *I* am making $500,000 a year. LOL! I was on the phone with my best friend and she said that if I am making that much money, I had better pay for our families' spring break trip this year. I told her that if I were, I WOULD! It's actually our revenue target for the business to GROSS next year before payouts and expenses.

Thanks so much to TommyGirl for her terrific comments in the article. I didn't even tell her in advance that they might be calling her. But I love what she had to say!!

Oh, that is just crazy. :rotfl: I keep talking up SR and can't get any of my friends or family to join. They look at me like I am the crazy one. Won't be so crazy when I am paying for WDW with free money.:sunshine:I;ll be like the Little Red Hen (I think that is the right story).

They'll take a look at my old mini van and my house and my clothes and wonder if I have a Swiss bank account that I am hiding the money in. LOL!

The good news is that they changed the article to SR making the money and not me. Of course, 500K is our goal for the next year, and I do think we'll make it next year. Which will mean that we will be paying out much more than this year as well. YEA!!! The numbers on the front page of SR don't do us justice since they don't take into account all of the special cashouts or prizes.

It's only because we're trying to sell the house. LOL! The little stack of stuff on the desk are our SR notepads, pens, and pins. I showed him our buttons in hope that he might use a picture of them because our members made them and I love them. :heart:

I totally forgot about that!!! How could a tour or "SR Headquarters" be complete without showing him the minivan? After all, it's where I do some of my best work. He was probably afraid that it wouldn't look as glamorous as my built-it-yourself furniture did.

They are harder to mail because I am afraid that they will get smashed. But I do have some new ideas of what to do with them. AND!!! We just ordered the Super Member gifts for this quarter and they are VERY cool. Probably my favorite SM gifts so far.

Oh my. I had no idea this addiction I now have was being run just north of me. I live in Columbus, IN.

I just joined on 8/21 and have been working so hard to hit that 100 mark by the end of Sept. I was so surprised to see this article and realize that you are doing this in the Indy area.

Great article and I wish you much success in this venture.
