Her Life Magazine Erin Klink ** Expo was a Hoax, NO Entertainment as promised, furious vendors!!** Rubicon, Wisconsin

3rd of Oct, 2011 by User387667

We attended the All About You Women's Expo in Milwaukee Wisconsin on September 23 & 24 as a vendor. When we signed up for the booth we were told that 40 busses from the surrounding areas with 60 people per bus were chartered to pick up individuals and bring them to the event where Lisa Rinna and Danny Goeke were going to be the celeberity guests. We were told that 5,000 tickets were sold in advance and that this would be an incredible expo experience. On the day of the event, when nobody came thru the doors and Danny Goeke didn't show up for the bachelor auction we began to discuss our options with the other vendors. Vendors were charged different prices for the same size booth without any additional advertising given to them. On Saturday, people were asking about the meet and greet tickets for Lisa Rinna and we were told that her plane was delayed 3 times but she was on her way. According to Lisa Rinna's facebook page she was contacted on the Wednesday prior to the event to cancle her appearance. Her flight was never delayed as she never left California. We also found out thru her mother Bonnie (who was one of the event coordinators) that they could only fill 3 busses to less than 1/2 capacity so they ended up cancelling all the busses on Wednesday. Even though the event was falling apart, the vendors were promised outrageous numbers of attendees that never materialize. When pressed about the number of tickets sold, the individuals in the ticket booth admitted that they sold less than 30 tickets for BOTH days.

There was also supposed to be a biggest loser contest that never happened on the stage and they finally did auction off a date with Danny Goeke (even though he didn't show up for the auction) and they had to beg 3 women to pool their money for the minimum bid of $750 - and it never went any higher.
