Hi everyone! I'm trying to help someone in my downline come up with a show format for a "game show" theme. I don't have much more to go on than that.
Any suggestions?
Melinda
 
The first thing that comes to mind is Price is Right but my fear is that would emphasize our prices and could turn people off. Maybe a Jeopardy theme would work better... you could come up with 5 categories like food trivia, the business opportunity, the product line, hosting a show, and maybe "what's new" to focus on the new product line in Sept... work the questions in around the demo?
 
Seems like someone on here has a "deal or no deal" format - check in files or do a search - I'm sure there is info here for it.
 
Let us know what you decide to do.
 
,Hi Melinda,A game show theme can be a fun and interactive way to host a Pampered Chef show. Here are a few suggestions to get you started:1. "Cooking Challenge" - This game show theme can involve a series of cooking challenges where contestants have to use specific Pampered Chef products to create a dish within a certain time limit. The audience can vote on the winner and the winning dish can be featured in the show.2. "Kitchen Olympics" - This theme can involve a series of kitchen-related challenges, such as slicing and dicing competitions or blind taste tests using Pampered Chef products. The contestants can earn points for each challenge and the one with the most points at the end wins a prize.3. "Pampered Chef Trivia" - Test your guests' knowledge of Pampered Chef products and recipes with a trivia game. You can include questions about the company's history, popular products, and even fun facts about the consultants. The winner can receive a Pampered Chef gift basket.4. "Product Showcase" - Turn your show into a game show by featuring different Pampered Chef products and having the guests guess their uses or benefits. You can even have a "Price is Right" style game where guests have to guess the price of a product to win it.I hope these ideas help in creating a fun and engaging game show themed Pampered Chef show for your downline. Best of luck!
