This color will be available only for this weekend, and at the insane price of only 60L$. Be sure to pick it up, the vendor won't sell it after midnight SLT Sunday. Click the pic for a full-size view. The matching lingerie is included, just not shown.



And I did a beautiful lavender shade as a group gift for the Calla Update group. You can get it from the notice history, or pick it up in the lobby. This color will not be sold!



Come on over to Calla and pick them up!

Group Gift!

I totally intended to have a release for you yesterday, and ended up spending all day outside at the park with my kiddos. It was one of those perfect Spring days and I just couldn't resist. So in lieu of a release, I've sent out a group gift! It's the Lily's Favorites pack of the latest release, Adonis.



Also, I will start setting up Employee interviews on Monday for CSR's, so if you haven't gotten your app in, please do so this weekend! Then go outside and enjoy the sunshine!

Love and hugs,
Lily

Freebie & Fabulous Business Tool

If you're a business owner in Second Life, you have to try this new Transaction Tracker. It is seriously amazing. It's just gone to Open Beta, so take advantage of being able to test it for 5L$. If you help Beta test, you also get a free month! They're even offering to give you the 5L$ back if you don't like it, so you really have nothing to lose. Trust me, it will be worth every single L$.

It makes sense of all those transactions we all have. It can create graphs and charts in seconds so you can track how well your products are doing. There's a "Top Ten" list for products, freebies, and even customers! It's a great way to send something extra special to those who buy every release you put out. You can also track sales by region, so you can tell if the shop you're renting at X-island is doing well or not and worth keeping! In just a few minutes! You don't have to sort through pages and pages of excel files to find out!

Instead of trying to fight with excel to figure out what all those numbers mean, or to try and figure out how well a particular product is selling, I just upload my transactions into this tracker and it tells me everything I need to know, and some things I didn't know I needed to know! I really couldn't live without it, and I know so many creators who have been wishing for something like this that's easy to use and simple to understand. I've been super lucky to be part of the development of this amazing tool, and as an almost 4-year SL content creator, I can tell you this thing ROCKS.

Seriously, go read through the website, there's a ton of information there about how it all works.

And finally, I've put out a little freebie for Earth Day today.



You can pick it up here: http://slurl.com/secondlife/Calla/145/150/21.

Freebie, Today ONLY!

I'm sorry I don't have a pic to show you, but today has been...insane is probably the best word. Anyway, there's a freebie ponytail style in the lobby on the desk. It's a Limited Edition style in the I Want Them All pack which is available ONLY for today! So come on over and pick it up while it's still there.

I've sent out a group gift! It's a lovely sculpted Lily to wear in your hair. If you didn't get it, check the notices history of the in-world group if you're in that. Or if you're in the subscriber group, come to the store and touch the sign. Choose "History" and then the message from today, 6/27. It will be sent to you again.



A few reminders: There are only a few days left to submit your pictures for the Store Poster contest. They must be in my Tuesday at 11:59pm SLT.

50L$ Sale!

All the Holiday Limited Editions are on sale for 50L$ from now until Jan 1st. Click here and here for the pictures.

Be sure to wear a Calla Store Card while you shop and get 10% of your purchase back on your card. Which makes these 45L$ each!

Just look for the 50L$ Sale flower sign at Calla!



The Holiday Hunt is still on also until Jan 1st, so grab some stockings while you're there.

Happy Holidays & Treasure Hunt

My Christmas wish for all of you,



Also, the Holiday Hunt is on at Calla! Santa has left stockings everywhere. There are 42 gifts. The stockings will vanish and reappear in a new location every ten minutes. Take a ride on the sleigh for clues. They are inside the store, and on the grounds. But be warned, Santa knows if you were naughty or nice! Find the stockings at Calla!

The hunt will be on until Dec 31st, which should give you some extra time amongst other holiday plans to find them!

There are also a few of the holiday colors left, the Gold is a beautiful to-die-for blonde, the Cranberry is a fabulously rich cranberry red, and Holly is a magnificent firey-red. Of course, there are the yummy candy cane stripes, too! Get them before they're gone! *They will be deleted on Jan 1st!*

Happy holidays to all of you, and a joyous New Year!

Introducing the Shopper Rewards Program!

Look for these signs around the store:



Earn L$ back with every purchase!

Simply wear the Calla Store Card you'll receive in the folder (after you touch a sign in the store), or any other Calla Store Card you may already have.

Purchase items as normal, and your card will be refunded 10% of your purchase.

Let your L$ accumulate on your card, then use your store card for a future purchase or give it as a gift! You can also add more L$ to it at the Top-Up station located near the front door to use your 10% savings immediately on your next purchase.

Important:

PLEASE DO NOT FORGET TO WEAR YOUR CARD PRIOR TO PURCHASING AN ITEM IF YOU WANT TO RECEIVE THE 10% REWARD! Due to the overwhelming popularity of this program, I will not be able to keep track and manually add your reward to your store card. Please, please don't forget to wear it before hand!

If you have any questions, comments or concerns, please contact me or one of the Calla Store Staff.

Thank you so much for shopping with me! Your patronage is appreciated, and hopefully this shows you how much!

Trick or Treat @ Calla

Pumpkins will be popping up all over the Calla Lily sim today, starting at 3pm SLT. Some are tricks, but there are 42 with treats!

The hunt will be on until sometime early Nov 1st, at which point Calla will be closing until Nov 2nd. More coming soon about the exciting things that will be happening on Sunday!

Have fun Trick-or-treating!

Group Presents - Free hair & a free skin!

I sent these out to the in-world group last week, and tried to send it out to the SoM group members too, but my controller bit the dust and I had some issues with it. But that's all fixed now, so I'm resending it!

In the box is an unreleased skin. It's a makeup I did for myself that I haven't released yet. I wore it in the RFL ads - so here's what it looks like:



There is also a Lily's Favorites pack of the new release style Ash. That has 5 colors in it, Auburns (Cherry Wood), Brunettes II (Mocha), Dirty Blondes (Honey), Dreams (Honey Brunette Highlights), and Reds (Golden Red).



Go touch the kiosk located at http://slurl.com/secondlife/Calla Lily/149/156/38 and view the history to get the gift! It's not staying there forever, so grab it quick!

Hunt Extendend, Group Freebie, RFL, and Lily's MIA!

Due to borkage and quite a number of reports of people losing the hunt items, I'm going to extend the hunt until Tuesday morning. I'll go around and gather up the boxes early am Eastern (probably 4am SLT) so you have a little while longer to pick them up if you lost them or haven't been able to get over there.

Apparently someone has made and been handing out a handy-dandy note card with all the box locations. I'm kinda glad, cause now I'll be able to find them.

Head on over if you haven't yet! http://slurl.com/secondlife/Calla%20Lily/128/110/35

Also due to my own borkage when coloring, I've sent out the Willow-herb style in the LTD Editions colors to the Calla Update Group and the Calla Subscribe-O-Matic group. If you haven't joined, you can go over to the store and touch the kiosk. I will be taking them out of the past notices tomorrow as well, so hurry if you want to catch them.

My RFL team raised 410,000 L$ last night! I want to thank all of you who came out to support the fundraiser, both with your bids and your spirits. There was quite a crowd! I must brag on my team a minute. We are the Designers in Seclusion team, and not only have we raised over $5,000 usd for the Relay in the last two months, most of my team members run full time businesses within Second Life as well. That's no small task, and I am so grateful for all the effort they have put into raising funds to fight cancer. They are an amazing group and I as Team Captain have had the immense honor and pleasure to work with them on a much deeper level and can assure you they are some of the best folks on the grid. So a huge thank you goes out to each of them as well! We're not done yet, though, so keep an eye out for more events from the DIS RFL team!

On a personal note, I won't be around quite as much the next two days. My youngest daughter turns 5 tomorrow so there are birthday plans tomorrow evening, but I will be around most of the daytime.

In case you haven't heard, I tore a ligament in my lower back about 2 1/2 months ago.
It's making my life very difficult; I can't empty the dishwasher or move laundry or lug around hay and horse feed. I'm not able to do much of anything and have been given the pretty handicapped parking tag. This is a huge blow, especially given the fact that I'd do just about anything to be out riding right now.

I've been in a constant state of a good steady 8 on the pain scale for a long time now. (I had to have an MRI on my RL birthday!) I go Wednesday for some kind of injection to numb the nerves in that area. It can take up to 18 months for a ligament to heal. They're going to explain it all and then do it so I'm not exactly sure what is entailed, or how long anything is supposed to take or what my limitations afterwards will be.

So please, if you have customer issues, send me a note card and I will get back to you as soon as I possibly can. Just know it may be a few days. If you need urgent help, you can contact Katoria Stevenson who is my new Store Manager, or Always Loveless who is also Calla Store Staff. If you purchased something and it didn't get delivered, please go touch the cash register at the front of the store to have it redelivered!

Treasure Hunt All Weekend!

There are 65 boxes hidden throughout the entire island, in the store and outside of the store!

There's hair in them there hills! (And some unreleased skins and other goodies too!)

Come get 'em! http://slurl.com/secondlife/Calla%20Lily/128/110/35

Have a wonderful weekend. :)

Happy St. Patrick's Day Weekend!

Feelin' lucky?

There are greens and green tips packs of hair in the lucky chairs for the weekend. They will be there through Monday.

There are LOTS of different styles in there, and some for the men too!
