Call Home OfficeThese 2 women are ruining your Pampered Chef experience and that is not fair to you at all. Let home office know what is going on and don't give up. The beauty of Pampered Chef is that it is YOUR business not theirs. You're husband obviously supports you in having a PC...

No-Balke or Cook but good demosI have done 2 no-bake receipes at my last 2 shows and everyone has loved them. I did the Crab Spread (I use real crab meat because you can actually get it for the same or cheaper than the fake stuff) and the Autumn Fruit Salad (if you have the microplaner don't...

Wow!I just got a catalog show order for the carving board and I was psyched to have sold one. It's a beautiful piece - I'm a new consultant so I haven't been able to earn it yet but I think that hosts who like to entertain will love adding this piece to their collections. Quality wood and...

CoolThank you so much for your help! I love this site!

I have a host doing a catalog show right now and she wants the September host benefits... does she have to close her show in September or can it run over into October? I'm using the show as credit for October SS2 month.

Ss2I hope to earn that SS2 this month - Mainly because I want that US&G. My director reminded us at our last cluster meeting to 1. always use the guard because the blades are SHARP and 2. the food should be in MANAGABLE pieces. I think that's an important tip for just about anything you're...

I am doing my first home show booth on the 25th. Any ideas what I should do? What should I have with me? I have a 3 1/2 hour slot with another consultant. I have my Super Starter Kit and I made my 1st SS bonus (in 2 shows-I was so excited) and I earned the Roasting Pan as my sign on bonus...

Encourage, encourage, encourageI'm still new but in trying to get bookings I always make sure to point out how much they can earn in FREE products! I usually use a $500 show as an example because it doesn't seem like an overwhelming amount and that they can get almost $100 worth of stuff for...

Car DecalsI have the plain white lettered "The Pampered Chef" decals from Nancy's Artwork - they go on the outside of your vehicle so they work great with the privacy tint which my car has.

Cluster MeetingsI'm kind of lucky - my director lives less than 5 minutes away from me but she gets together with 2 other directors in my area to do cluster meetings which they have on Monday evenings - the same night I have a class for Grad School. I went to one of the meetings over the summer...

Thanks!Those are some great tips for encouraging potential host in order to get expensive items for 1/2 price. I'm new at this (only 2 shows done) and I don't seem to be able to get booking information into my "routine" yet. Thanks for the tips!

Thinking about it...I'm a new consultant and I've offered to hold shows at my home for people who seem hesitant because of current remodeling or just the thought of having to clean. I figure it's a good incentive for me too since I'll have to keep it nice and neat in case someone takes me up on...

Lookers... Possible hostsI think lookers at shows are good, especially if they think they cannot afford anything. It makes the perfect opportunity for them to become a host! I have a friend who is going through a divorce and she wants the stoneware baker with the lid but thought it was too...

Great ideas...It does seem daunting sometimes when you're trying to come up with ideas for bookings. Thanks everyone for all the different ideas, literally if not for the information I've gotten from this site, I probably never would have signed up. I've only done 2 shows so far (both $500...

ThanksThanks for the sheet with info on how to set up for the show. Great ideas for things to have.
