I am flying to conference, and I'm a new consultant. I don't want to have to pay for my bags, so am trying to pack light and just do carry ons. I bought a big purse for both carrying stuff during the days, and to have extra room, but will be getting a lot of stuff that I will need to carry back?

Check out the new home page look when you log onto pamperechef.com Very nice and professional looking!

So I have an outside order who wanted to book a show. We'd only texted back and forth, and I mailed her a host packet. A week later she texts that she's wondering when to expect the host packet. It seems it never arrived! I tell her I'll drop it off so that she can get going. I look...

I like hosting my own fundraiser show sometimes and have a large contact list on my personal website "Customer Connection". I wish the home office would design a proffesional looking email in Customer Connection that we could send out to everyone at once stating that we are hosting a show...

So, I just went on Jamie Oliver's home site to see what kind of recipes he has, etc, and he has a link for his own direct sales company called Jamie at Home...It is very similar to PC, consultants are selling his own line of cooking products, etc and the commission is similar as well as the...

I am putting this thread here in Team Training- because I thought about how many consultants (new and old) who probably could use a little training or tips or something in this area. We all know that many consultants start this biz and don't know much or anything about cooking. So it stands...

My April is looking pretty sad. So I was thinking of doing a large event like this one. The person I spoke to in charge of the booths said he can give me a booth at half price. Which would be $450. It is a two day event So we could work on shifts or I have ideas on how we can make this work to...

Hi all! Today is my 30 day anniversary! :D I have a question about Home Office leads and team leader status.... Can anyone explain how this works? I've looked everywhere! I have signed two recruits and wondering when I will have the title of Team Leader? When will I be eligible for HO...

I am VERY upset at the email one of my customers just forwarded to me sent to her by the home office. I was NOT copied on it.On the surface, I appreciate that the Home Office wants to be proactive and let 're-up' customers with expiring discounts, but I do NOT appreciate that they are...

I've complained about these things to home office, yet they still haven't been fixed. Perhaps if more of us complained, these will get fixed. Have you noticed that when your guests send their email invitations through the website they were only able to send Holiday invites? That might have...

Anyone have any news on the home office phone systems. We are getting either a busy signal or this phone has been disconnected. Even the Opportunity Line is only a busy signal. Anyone know what's happening?

I did our local home show today (a first for me and a the first time they had a PC consultant). The fee was more than I normally pay for a booth but I was told this was common for Home show fees. The show ran from 10-6 today and continues 10-4 tomorrow. My results for today are 95 slips- 1...

Our small local paper publishes a list of homes purchased in the county each week. The listings are generally about a month after the purchase date, and include the address of the property and the name of the purchaser, as well as the sales price. I was thinking about sending a letter and a...

Ok so I may be abnormal but probably 8 times out of 10 when I get a lead for someone who is interested in learning more about starting their own Pampered Chef business I will send an email and never hear back or call and almost always have to leave a message. When I send an email I always ask...

my first recruit. She came to a party I was doing tonight and she said she has been thinking about signing up for the past year and her hubby told her to go ahead and do it! So after the party we got on the computer and she filled out and submitted her agreement! :thumbup::D:D:D

Any ideas on what I should do to stand out at our Home Show? I've never done this event before and there are normally over 5000 people that come and go between the two days. http://hbade.org/content/page-42.html I was thinking of making a few fliers about low budget meals and the meals in...

My home computer crashed today :cry: Thankfully my sister had told me about carbonite yesterday and I started the backup process and most of my files were backed up when it crashed. My question is does anyone have an all-in-on touch screen computer and what do you think of it?? I have looked...

Hello,I am working on a multiple vendor open house in my home. I have heard of others in my cluster having success at theirs so I am trying as well.So far it will be PC, Arbonne and Longaberger. I am hoping for Scentsy and maybe a jewelry company.I started selling in November and I am still...

The weather here is killing my show schedule and from mid-January until last night, all of my shows have had to reschedule and i had one reschedule for last night. An hour's drive from here. I've been host coaching them (mother/daughter co-host) and encouraging outside orders and talking up...

I got my first home office lead!! I contacted her today and she's SO excited to start her business!! We talked for about 20 minutes! She had some questions but it sounded like she had pretty much made her mind up and just needed to know how to get started! I'm so excited for her, it sounds...

So I was psyched to get the HWC products because I had a cooking show tonight and a catalog show to closer prior to the 15th. Well living in the effing snow belt has wrecked havoc on my perfect little plan. My show as cancelled tonight and isn't rescheduling until March. Has home office...

I have had 2 shows in the past 2 weeks that came from HO leads. They total $2050 in sales, 3 signed recruits, 10 bookings (dates on the calendar for most), 3 of which are this month and are thinking about signing too!!! Heck, those 2 shows could have just put my entire year onto an amazing...

I went to my first team meeting and a few people asked me where I had come from, was I a home office lead? I just answered who my recruiter was, but did not ask about what they meant. I've seen it mentioned regarding recruits and bookings, so what is it?

A couple years ago, I shared the cost of our local Taste of Home booth. I did benefit with several shows, a recruit (which shortly fizzled out), and a few orders. Now, I may be on my own for this year's booth. With the economy, I'm worried if the booth cost of $330 plus a $25 door prize...
