    Does Anyone Have This "Problem"??

    My first kitchen show at someone else's house is 19 July, and I asked the host for the $15 upfront. She kind of had a little attitude about it (she said that she'd never been asked for that before from other consultants, she'd always had to just pick up the ingredients) and I simply said, I...

    No Propane Needed: Compare No-Stick Sprays and the Kitchen Spritzer

    Btw...That story you got in your email is true. http://www.snopes.com/toxins/dustoff.asp It has happened to a number of kids. Imagine for those of us with asthma or allergies, what breathing in all that Pam in the kitchen has done to our lungs.

    aCouple of My Stones Have Yellow

    Definitely!! I don't recommend using Pam for anything any more. The only kind I have a hard time giving up, now, is the butter flavoured because I put it on popcorn (I'm strict vegetarian, and the butter flavour doesn't actually have butter in it lol)

    No Propane Needed: Compare No-Stick Sprays and the Kitchen Spritzer

    I ordered two (I used to have two, but my husband melted holes into both of them and they lost their seal lol). One is EVOO (extra virgin olive oil), and one is standard flavour-less vegetable oil (canola, saffron, etc...whatever I have on hand).

    aCouple of My Stones Have Yellow

    FyiYou shouldn't use Pam or any other cooking spray with propellant on any quality cookwear, not just stones. This includes hard-anondized pans like the ones in our catalog. The propellant is TERRIBLE for cookwear and builds up over time. I've used Pam for years and years and could never...

    Maximizing Sales: Tips for a Successful Direct Sales Party with 13-15 Attendees

    Two people came to my first show, and they both knew infinitely more about Pampered Chef than I do. I ended up just letting them go on about the different products, as I made the recipe, and I ended up with $160 and a booking.

    Maximizing Success in Larger Markets as a Pampered Chef Consultant

    Well, I am a consultant on a military base, situated between a good sized town and a large city. On the base, of course we have the Base Exchange, and we all have access to AAFES.com (base exchange online sales) which sells kitchen goods at cost, in addition to having kitchen stores and *marts...

    Can You Charge Fees for Bounced Checks?

    My first show, last weekend, had only two people and one order. That one order was $160. And the other guest booked. Don't knock small shows! ;)

    Managing Customer Orders in Pampered Partner: A Guide

    Okay, I have Pampered Partner pretty well figured out, submitted my first order and everything, but how do I enter customer orders where they pay for part of it, but I am paying for part of it? For example, when I made up my catalog show packets I put the kitchen show host benefits instead...

    Help Needed: Struggling to Increase Pampered Chef Catalog Sales

    My husband is also super supportive of everything I do, he's really sweet and thinks as long as it doesn't take me away too much, and doesn't harm our family, it's great. However, he adores the Pampered Chef. He's got a much longer wish list than I do ;) and he doesn't even cook! I had my...

    First Kitchen Show Success: $160 Order and Host Benefits!

    ...only two people came. I was a little disappointed because my friend across the street told me like, 10 times that she was coming, but didn't. AND only one of the two people placed an order. BUT... She ordered $160 by HERSELF! AND gave me the host benefits (it was supposed to be a...

    Is There a Way to Ask so People Won't Say No?

    Well, so far everyone I've asked to host a show has scheduled one. Of course, that's only three people ;) But I can tell you what I do, maybe it's different from what you do. I read in a book ("How To Win Friends and Influence People" by Dale Carnegie) that you can't get people do to...
