What is gifts: Definition and 178 Discussions

Hi Gang, I am looking for some help. I know likely no one is an expert.. I won't hold anyone accountable. :-) Just need some guidance. I printed my Income and Expense report out of P3 and I have one entire show that is not showing up under my consultant gifts. I noticed because it was a...

I am considering doing a show with a person in a rural area who has a 31 show first. Has anyone done a duo show like this and gone last? ( The 31 host said she was going first or could't do it) Is it a waste of time? I am new and have NO other shows this month so I don't mind going, BUT I want...

I've had two empty houses in my cul-de-sac for a while and today we have two new sets of neighbors moving in. I want to take a little something to each of them as a house-warming/introduction. What is your go-to recipe for something like this? Marci P.S. Send up a few prayers that these are...

I've been invited to a 31 Gifts party by a friend I haven't seen since high school. This might be a good opportunity to share the word about, and promote, my Pampered Chef business. I seem to remember some threads about bags that would be a nice substitute for the catalog tote with a...

So...this is my first year doing taxes with a home business, and it's been lots of "fun" figuring all these things out. One question that I haven't found an answer to yet is "gifts" - now I'm not talking host gifts - but discount "gifts" - or consultant "sales" where we give a discounted rate...

where do you usually put your consultant gifts that show up under P3 in on your taxes? thx. laurie

Hey everyone! I came across a list of ways to add to your PC business and one was to contact real estate agents in your area and offer to deliver housewarming gifts to them every month for them to give to people who purchase homes from them. What would you think would be good to put in that to...

How should I order gifts for multiple people at various addresses, either as "consultant gift" or using PC dollars, if possible? TIA! I mean, I know "how", I'm just trying to figure out the BEST way, yk?

I have a contact who wants to purchase 10-20 client gifts from me, shipped directly to the clients. He wants to spend around $20-25 each including shipping, and asked for recommendations. My thoughts were the RUFTH trivet, or the 1-2-3-Dip Set gift package. Can anyone think of anything...

I'm trying to decide what to give this year. Last year I did small batter bowls with a cookie mix layered in it. The year before I gave the sprinkles to the dance teacher and the trivet to the school teachers. I don't know what I want to do this time. The teachers are different, so I guess I...

I've been trying to think of what I'd like to do for my son's teachers for Christmas... I just found out that his teacher at school is a vegetarian, and in her little bio on the school website, she says that she enjoys cooking. She's young, married, and has a new puppy. :) We also ADORE...

I need some help! I want to give a gift to my cluster for Christmas - but I'm having a hard time coming up with something that will fit into my budget, and still be meaningful/thoughtful. I have 16 on my team - some are MUCH more active and productive than others (who do only what they need...

What PC gifts do you plan to give, and to whom? I am going starting to think about the holidays, and I have a discount coming my way next month when I hit the 3 month mark, so I thought I better get planning! I know I will be getting my MIL the holiday glass dessert plates, because they go...

I'm doing an event in Dec. and they have asked to have pre-wrapped gifts for guest to purchase. I have to admit, I'm not the best at this. I'm sure some of you have great ideas on what to have on hand and how to have them wrapped. I do have some inventory but most of it is small things...

So I had a good customer call me tonight and wants to order the KH35 Go Green Gift set. I had to close down my website because I no longer have a checking account or a TPC Credit Card so, they won't accept any other form of payment, but I digress although I am still mad that I can not send them...

I am a former consultant, going to resign in about two weeks. I want to mail out a flyer this weekend letting everyone know I'm selling (again) so I can get some bookings before I sign to have a strong start this go round. I was wondering what the current charter host gifts are so I can...

I'm looking for ideas similar to the batter bowl gift mixes. Any ideas out there?

I am new, so forgive the questions if they seem to have simple answers. What do you all do for door prizes, or guest gifts? I was told we could buy the $1 Seasons Best and give them out...but anything else? And I assume we would have to buy everything ourselves that we want to give out. Is...

I'd like to do a guys only show, where guys can shop for themselves or purchase Christmas gifts for their wives with a personal shopper (me). I was thinking of approaching a male-friendly organization like a hunting/fishing club or veterans organization or firehall and offering to do a...

Hello all, I recently found out that I am doing a party with consultants from 31 Gifts and Lia Sophia on the 25th. I believe its going to be similar to a 'house warming' party to get more people to come, they recently just built a home. She said she sent out 30 invites yesterday and 25 today...

So I think someone here had posted about 31 gifts so I went to the website to see what it was all about and get a catalog. So I used the find a consultant tool. My consultant is in Hawaii. I'm in CT. That really doesn't make sense that the closest consultant is in Hawaii. PC goes by...

Okay I am looking for some ideas, but let me tell you the scenario first so you understand... One of my dearest friends is getting married in Hawaii next week. I had to miss her shower, and now her "bachelorette" party is Monday (first day of Conference) so I have to miss that too! I want to...

I have at least 3 team members going to conference - YEA! One of them came with me last year, but for the other 2 this will be their first year. If more come, it will be their first year, also. So, I'm looking for some creative ideas for gifts for them. Anyone have any great ideas that...

I just got home from a Cooking show and I wanted to ask your guy's opinion on this. I met a guest who is a Real Estate Agent in my city. She asked me if I would be interested in putting together some items for her to give as gifts to the people that she sells homes to. (would I ever!!!!! )...

What category of expenses do Consultant Gifts fall under?

I have a friend getting married in June. She is having a shower in May and, to my knowledge, doesn't plan on registering anywhere (I think she hopes to just get $). I've suggested a PC shower and she doesn't seem interested :thumbdown:. I am planning to buy her a couple items from the catalog...

What is everyone's favorite items to use as host gifts and/or drawings at their shows??
