Thank God no one (openly) judged me as I clumsily set up for my first trunk show. Props? No. Invoice book? No. Prices on Jewelry? No. I had no idea what I was doing! Luckily, I had plenty of help from one of the greatest sales people on earth: my boyfriend's mom, Leslie.
This woman, with her impeccable taste and wonderful friends, could sell a rock, let alone diamonds. So we went at it, grabbing random objects lying around her house to serve as props and calling up her friends. Did I mention she also introduced me to chilled red wine at noon? Probably the best advice I've ever received - every occasion calls for wine.
Needless to say, we had a blast selling jewels and before we knew it, we had sold every piece on the table. I think I'll credit the vino.
