I have a show on the last day of the month. How long do I have to close out that show, so that the hostess receives the May special and her guests get the HWC products? And If I close it out on June 3rd (for example) that will count towards my June totals, not May, correct?

Thanks,

Dawn
 
I believe you have 30 days from the date of a show to submit it. I've never waited that long, so I'm not entirely sure. As long as your May show is dated in May, you can submit it June 3rd.

And, I assume that it would then count toward the sales we need to have to earn the free fall products, right? :D
 
ExactlyWhen you submit your show, the show total goes towards the month that it was submitted. Just think, you'll be that much closer to the FREE fall products!! :D
 
Special Bonus RequirementsBut, if you want to earn the Special Bonus: "Hold and Submit your 2 shows June 1-15 and you'll also receive a special product with an approximate value of $20."

Right....to get the bonus, though, any May shows won't count toward this since shows have to be held during those June dates. But, overall sales (even from May shows) would be counted in the monthly sales.
 

Frequently Asked Questions

What does it mean to close out a show?

Closing out a show refers to the process of finalizing all orders and transactions after a Pampered Chef party or event. This includes collecting payments, submitting orders, and ensuring that all host rewards and guest orders are accurately processed.

How do I submit orders after a show?

To submit orders after a show, you will need to log into your Pampered Chef consultant account, navigate to the 'Shows' section, and select the show you wish to close. From there, you can enter the orders, apply any host rewards, and finalize the submission. Make sure to double-check all details before submitting.

What are host rewards, and how do they work?

Host rewards are incentives given to hosts based on the sales generated during their show. These rewards can include discounts, free products, and exclusive items. The amount of rewards a host receives is typically determined by the total sales amount, with specific thresholds set by Pampered Chef.

When should I close out a show?

It is recommended to close out a show within a few days after the event to ensure timely processing of orders and delivery. This also helps to maintain good communication with your host and guests, ensuring they receive their products as soon as possible.

What if I have issues with closing out a show?

If you encounter issues while closing out a show, you can reach out to Pampered Chef's consultant support for assistance. They can help troubleshoot any problems you may face, whether it's technical difficulties or questions about order processing and host rewards.
