What is party: Definition and 200 Discussions

I booked a show over a month ago. I have emailed and left messages coaching the host about her party and every day this week I have tried to get in touch with her about her party this Saturday. I went on facebook before going to bed to find that she has over 14 confrimed coming and about 15...

My last party cost the host's mother $750 for 2 new tires and 1 rim driving home by taking a wrong turn. She called me and asked that I void her check because she would have to take a few things off her order.

Before I get into the problem, I'm going to outline how I handle payments at my parties. I have never had a problem doing it this way until now. I see the flaw in my method know and will begin to keep a log so I will know exactly how people pay. Okay, anyway...I do not accept checks or cash...

I currently have a catalog party going. One of the guests ordered online from my website and put in the hostess' name and placed her order. I got an email today that said I had online activity and I saw that it was this guests order. When I went to my PWS, and clicked on the catalog show...

I left it at home and need to get to the grocery store this afternoon. Can anyone tell me the ingredients? TIA!

I have been reading the November special over and over, but to get the Butterball Turkey does it have to be a home show from Nov 1-15th or can it be a Catalog Party?

I'm having my first true show by way of kick-off parties (I have multiple catalog shows going right now). While I have invited neighbors (and anyone who seems interested), the majority will be my friends. I'll be doing one on a Wednesday night and one the following Sunday. I'm not quite...

Hello. I am going to do my first taste testing party. I am trying to cut down on the amount of tools that i carry because I am 5 months pregnant and just cannot carry the weight of the bags. My question is- what bowls and things do you use for all of these testings? Has anyone used paper bowls...

I asked my SIL to let me practice a Chicken Your Way show on her family. It was planned for last Saturday. She forgot but called me and asked if I wanted to bring my things to her friends house where they were watching the LSU game. I didn't know the other two couples there, but they were...

It must be the change in weather, fall fever or something. It seems like everyone I talk to is interested in hosting a party. Please understand that 2 shows a month is normal for me. I've already got my 2 shows for August working. I've got November and December shows booked too and that's...

I was asked to do a divorce party for someone. I guess it doesn't matter what the occasion is. Can't wait to hear the conversations from those ladies.

I was going to do a tools and tasting party to introduce the new products and pantry items and wanted to do a half page flyer. Has anyone else done a party like this and made up a flyer? Thanks!

My daughter leaves for college Sunday and hosted a Tastefully Simple party last night to stock her dorm with yummy dips and cheeseballs. She is 3 orders away from more :p product. It was so cute last night to see her add to her wishlist. She had a great turnout and 3 friends booked...

HELP! I am going to a poker party tonight and will be providing the snacks. What are some good finger foods that I can prep in a short amount of time?

Hi there, I am hosting a DS jewellery party next week and of course want to serve PC Recipes. Which would be the best ones to serve that are easy and possibly be made the night before? I was also wondering if any of the new ones would be a good fit. Would also be great if it was a recipe...

My hair dresser owns the largest salon in town and has offered to let me set up in her salon gor four hours next Thursday. She wants me to mingle with customers and manm y table. I was going to make a trifle and dips in the MPF. A drawing for a free party. Does anyone have any other...

Sorry, I need to let it out...So I had a combo party tonight with 31. I went in knowing there would only be around 10 people, but was still hopeful (the last combo party I did with even less guests turned out to be over $700). Out of the 10 in attendance, 8 were in the room during my opening...

I did my first party by myself today. It was for my mom & her friends, so I did a lot more than I probably should have. Anyway, I made the pecan crusted mozzarella salad and the apple tart. Everything turned out great until I was cutting the apple tart with my pizza cutter. We had the...

How do you get your parties to start on time? Mine never seem to start on time and then I get home later than I plan on too.

I'm a new consultant and have a question. My first catalog party was submitted and is $160 before s/h & tax. What does the host get? All I can find is what she gets if she sells more than $500. What if the sales are lower? I want to know what to tell her she gets....

Where do you find people who are excited about doing a show, when you don't have shows on your calendar already? I am so frustrated. Last year started out great. By this time (half-way through the year) I'd had over $10,000 in personal sales and 26 shows. It's not a huge amount, I know, but...

Hi again! At a party last week, one of the ladies attending did not purchase anything, but she called and wants to book a show. Is there any way to add her in P3 so that last week's host can get the booking benefit? I haven't submitted the show yet (planning to tomorrow). Thanks!

Apparently one of my ex-coworkers had a Passion Party last night. I don't know when I was invited, but it had to have been in the last couple of days. I didn't even see the invitation and I was just going through invites about 4-5 days ago & doing RSVP's to all the new ones. Anyway, the...

I am going to a party tonite for a mexican theme. I am making a taco salad and bringing beer bread. Any suggestions for a dip for it? Thanks, Amy

OK- i am doing the Cool & Serve Party all summer because its already SO HOT and it's one of my favorite summer parties! My question is- does anyone already have a made up shopping list of sorts to give to their host that I could use? Just a thought! I'm trying to think through everything and...

One of the girls on the team (Karen's downline) posted this on FB earlier: Had to have been one of the guests ... right? I mean who else would take all the stuff and leave the wallet & iPhone?

Remember in December when PC did that cooking demo on FB? Looks like this consultant is trying to do the same thing... I didn't sign up for it and saw it on Twitter. http://virtualhiredhand.com/pampered-chef-party-social-media-experimentAnd I can't tell if she's the consultant or sponsoring...

I'm hosting a 31 party for my friend who sells. It's tomorrow at 11am and so I want to serve something that could count as their lunch. But I don't want my kitchen to look like a disaster from preparing it. ;) Any ideas?

Hi, I am doing a show at a flower nursery, outdoors. There is no oven. Can anyone recommend something to make?? Thanks so much!

I want to make an easy trifle for a party on Sunday. I am doing the BBQ Pork Tenderloin and Slap yo Mama Margarits. All of the trifles I have looked at need to be refrigerated several hours or overnight. Any suggestions? I was looking at the Tiramasu Trifle and the Kahlua Cheesecake Trifle...
