Just had to share my excitement! I just did a show yesterday and it is currently at $1081!:) She has a few more orders to collect too! So stoked! I was beginning to think I may never have one of these again! (I Had my first $1k show at my very first kitchen show!) How can you top that of all shows and none have come close ($800 was my 2nd highest) since then, until now!
Yipeee! Now I will be getting the midseason product~ hopefully (if she closes before than!):D

If only every show were $1000!!!:rolleyes:
 
Congratulations Heather! Hearing about other people doing it is great motivation to a newbie like myself! Keep up the great work!

;) Congratulations Heather! That's fantastic! Isn't it great when you motivated hosts? :p I have been doing PC for exactly 1 year and now have 9 thousand dollar shows! I even have a catalog show that is almost at $700! More than a lot of my cooking shows!!:p :D
 
That is so great, CONGRATULATIONS!!! This is my SS1, and I am sooo motivated to hear things like this from all of you. I have one show under my belt and my second one is next week. All of you motivate me.

Keep up the good work!
 
YippeeCongratulations!!! I look forward to the day I get my first $1000 show. I just closed my first show at $330. We had to work hard to get that but we did and we closed it tonight. I will put the cheques in my bank account tomorrow

Cheers:rolleyes:
 
That is awesome...keep up the good work. I have gotten close on 2 shows but still waiting for the first one. You are an inspiration. Congratulations.
 
That is so funny! My first show (in January) was 1300+ and I just had my second 1000+ show on Thursday!

It really is all about the host, isn't it? In both cases my hosts were REALLY motivated and they did great jobs. And wow... what a difference having a 1000 show does for your paycheck!

Congratulations!

Yes, the host's motivation makes all the difference!
I give them a Hostess Tic Tac Toe and the ones who want to black it out do the best! So far the 3 who were motivated by this challenge reached $700+- $1000+!
Plus I am doing a Hostess of the MOstess 2006 challenge and the host who reaches $1000 or higher with the highest show total by Nov. will win my $139 sign on bonus pack I received when signing up in November. So hopefully I get a couple more of those kind of hosts from now until November!

Good luck To everyone on your $1k show quests!

Yes that is the one I use. Thanks Becky!
 
Do you stack the prizes for their tic-tac-toe achievements? Meaning, if they blackout the board, do you give them the free piece of stoneware for that, and the free cookbook for the "T" and the extra 10% off their personal order?

thanks for the document :) now if only my microsoft office worked so i could save it.. :( i hate computers.

I just give them one thing, but if it gets to a black out, I'll let them pick. I've only had a couple hosts get that far!:)

Frequently Asked Questions

What strategies did you use to achieve a $1000+ kitchen show?

To achieve a $1000+ kitchen show, I focused on several key strategies: I built a strong guest list by inviting friends, family, and potential customers who were genuinely interested in cooking. I also utilized social media to promote the event, creating excitement and anticipation. Additionally, I offered incentives for guests to bring friends and provided engaging product demonstrations that showcased the value of the Pampered Chef products.

How did you promote your kitchen show to maximize attendance?

I promoted my kitchen show through a combination of social media posts, personal invitations, and follow-up reminders. I created an event page on Facebook to keep guests informed and engaged. I also sent out personalized messages to my contacts, highlighting the fun aspects of the show and the benefits of attending, such as exclusive discounts and the opportunity to win prizes.

What role did product demonstrations play in your show’s success?

Product demonstrations were crucial to my show’s success. They allowed guests to see the products in action, which helped them understand their value and versatility. I focused on interactive and engaging demonstrations that encouraged participation from the guests. This not only made the experience enjoyable but also led to increased interest and sales of the showcased products.

Did you use any special promotions or incentives during the show?

Yes, I offered several promotions and incentives during the show to encourage sales. For example, I provided a discount for guests who placed orders over a certain amount and held a raffle for attendees who made purchases. Additionally, I highlighted exclusive offers available only during the show, which created a sense of urgency and excitement among the guests.

What were some challenges you faced, and how did you overcome them?

One challenge I faced was managing the flow of the show while keeping guests engaged. To overcome this, I prepared a detailed agenda and practiced my demonstrations beforehand. I also encouraged questions and interactions throughout the show, which helped maintain energy and interest. Additionally, I remained flexible and adapted to the guests' reactions, ensuring a positive experience for everyone involved.
