I'll be wrapping up my first Mystery Host show tomorrow (with a wrap-up party!).
I had 5 people participating initially, and then I added one more whose scheduled cooking show was canceled, but she had some orders (I don't have those orders from her yet, so am going on faith that she does have...
A good friend is hosting a party next month - she told me about another PC she went to where the consultant made mini lava cakes in little flower pots - anyone heard of this??
I have just finished tying 150 baby spoons to 150 mini catalogues with ribbon for an Expecting Mother show I am doing next week. It took a couple of hours but I have the time, so that's ok with me. I guess I just wonder if I am doing too much sometimes. I needed to put together the giveaways...
Ok I need some help!!
At a show on Saturday I had a lady ask if I could do a show, but she wants it to be w/ her little girls bday party friends.
They are around 5!
My creative bones are on vac. and I'm needing some ideas!!
Thanks

I have a May show on a Thursday evening. I'll be going from work, with maybe a few minutes to stop by the house on the way to pick up anything I need. The show starts at 7pm, and I would REALLY like to get out in no more than 2 hours, since everyone, including me, will have to get up early the...
Hi everyone, I'm coming on just for a few minutes tonight. My middle dd is in our little miss pageant tomorrow night. She is wanting to win so badly. She just woke up crying because she'd been coughing and thought she wouldn't be able to do her pageant tomorrow. If you could, say a little prayer...
Well, I always tell guests at my show that these little things are great for breastfeeding moms to close breast milk bags....oh my one of my friends took me a little to serious when I said there were so many uses for a new mom.
She went into labor at home and delivered before the ambulance...
So my mom's neighbor is a DS consultant for a spa products. Last August/September we "swapped" shows and each hosted shows for each other. She's a huge PC fan and also a past consultant (her director left for this new spa DS company and she followed) and her husband is also a huge PC fan. She...
I admit, I'm a little slow. Only recently realized that PC has put bamboo in the host special for 3 months in a row: this month's choice of sets, Feb.'s rev. bamboo carving board, and March's choice of bamboo. That's a lot of bamboo! I had a good March last year when it was the host special, but...
I have been emailing several area bridal shops and bridal consultants to try to get my name out there to get more into the bridal registry and bridal shower market. I basically introduced myself, explained the company and how I thought their brides could benefit from what the Pampered Chef has...
I haven't had a cooking show since July and was a little nervous heading to my show tonight. I've only had catalogue shows for August and September and nothing for October. What a great feeling to get back in the saddle again AND get a new highest show total - $1490 and counting :D:D
She...
I honestly have never used the little bamboo ladle that comes in the bamboo serving set until today. I thought it was adorable, but it's just been sitting in a drawer, until now! I made the little "mini" pumpkin pies in the mini muffin pan, and in order to get the right amount of pumpkin pie...
I moved to DC from Germany and want to get back into PC. I have a sale over $150 in June....do I have to restart?
Also, I need to find a director in the area to help me get my website back up and running. I want to do a charity show to raise money for the Organization for Autism Research...
I got a small jotter-type notepad from my director a few months ago. It's black pebbled leather with the PC logo embossed on the front. I don't use it much, and asked DH if he would like it (thinking hey, good way for him to promote my biz!) He was all over the idea, said he'd been eyeing it...
Hey all,
It's been a while since I've been on. I wanted to share our newest pride and joy with you. It was a long ordeal beginning with being induced for two days, pushing for 5 hours and finally having a C-section, but the end result was still perfect and wonderful!
Moving four days...
I know I haven't been on lately - marital issues, but I know I can count on you guys to be my prayer warriors.
My Best Friends little sister committed suicide early this morning. I am so torn up about it. My Best Friend's whole family lives near me, but she lives in Florida and I can't be...
So my new recruit tried to sign up last night - apparently her agreement didn't go through. Because we no longer get notification when it does go through, I didn't know that it wasn't showing as submitted. We're going to complete it today, but yesterday was the last day for conference 3...
There's really no good section to post this under, so I thought I'd throw it here :). I feel as though my shows go long, and they are starting to get a bit shorter (after being in biz a year) but I still feel as though they are taking way too long!
I know the cooking part should only be...
My host from Friday night keeps calling but she WON'T LEAVE A MESSAGE!!!!
I do not call people back if they don't leave a message. I will eventually call her to touch base with her about her show, but this is ridiculous! She has called several times today. If she calls again, maybe I'll...
OK, lemme pick your brain...I'm thinking I'd get the little ladies with their stickers at this, but then I wonder who would they bring with them? What are your thoughts...ideas...gimme whatcha got. Not sure if I'm gonna do it yet....but maybe!
First of all let me start by saying that I don't know this family personally, however it is a friend of a friend. Mom works part-time and dad was recently laid off and is out of work.
Braedon Monthony is a soon to be 7-month-old little boy who has been fighting the flu for the past couple of...
Okay, so this is a little urgent. I've been inactive for a while after being with PC for about 4 months. I desperately need to order the S/S 09 catalogs because of all a sudden I have 3 people interested in doing shows with me. I am thrilled to get started again, I love PC! BUT I cannot...
yea me!!!! I got my new little purse size computer today and love itl...It's an Eee PC...10 inch screen with built in webcam and all,...and wireless...it's so fun and cute...got my PP3 transferred over to it and ready to go...I had to buy a mouse though, cuz I just can't function properly with...
Since I'm so new to this, I am a little confused about paying taxes.
For instance, if I am only doing this as a hobby & I don't intend to earn very much.... Do I even have to file the taxes? (Let's say I make less than $1,000 a year in commission.) At what point am I required to pay taxes...
So my friend that is suppose to be BEST sells party lite. In the last 6 months I have held 3 shows for her. Well the last one was a catalog show and I got like 200.00 in orders but needed 250.00 to be a show. She said I can add orders of ladies at my work to help you.
Well a few days goes by...
I have a Consultant on my Team that is really starting to concern me. She is competitive, which can be a good thing, but now I think it is starting to cross an ethical line.
Recently she told me that her mother was trying to collect some orders for a catalog show at her office. She said her...
And we didn't even get to bring him home yet! :(:::::::::::::::::O (tear drops)
He was only 8 weeks old :cry:.
My aunt called and said she took him to the vet, as she came home from work yesterday evening and noticed all 3 puppies were laying around listless, no energy, etc!:eek: So she...
I'm so proud of her...
They do the "Accelerated Reader" program at school where you take a test on comprehension on a book after you've read it.
For this year she just hit:
Tests taken - 100
Words read - 501,500
Average book level - 3.7
(She's a 2nd grader).
:D:D:D:D:D:D:D
Ok, so if I want to sign up for a newsletter service (trying to decide between Mike and Joy's...I like both samples I've seen.) It sounds like iContact is the way to go. Do I sign up for the newsletter service, then go through their link to iContact and sign up for the Free Trial. Do I need...
How can I prevent this in the future?
I had a hostess who used to be a Pampered Chef consultant. She knows how this works. She invited 40 people to her show tonight and assured me there were 10 confirmed guests. When I arrived, she changed to "4 confirmed guests" but she's sure more will...
