What is real: Definition and 78 Discussions

We hosted our monthly cluster meeting at our home last evening. Everyone was asked to make a dish to share & I had the luxury of using my own kitchen, so I decided to make a variation of a dish we saw on the Food Network Show, "Cooking For Real." Sunny Anderson made this recipe with shrimp...

My introduction is coming after ... oh i donno ... several posts :blushing: I guess I just got excited and jumped right into things! So, other than being slow, I'm new to PC as of last October. My name is Laura and I just moved to the Lake of the Ozarks in Missouri. What a different world...

How exactly does this work? Working with a realtor??? My director suggested it and I have heard some about it on here but what do you actually do?

Today was the day. I had my first real cooking show, and I hated it. I don't think I could have done worse and thats not just being hard on myself. First, walking in the house I step ankle deep into mud (brand new house, no grass). Then I realize I left my Jerk seasoning for the nachos at...

Ok, I know this has been talked about a lot before but I was just working on a letter to a coworkers husband and I thought of something. The letters I've seen talk about ordering $200 in product and being eligible for free and discounted products. Wouldn't this really just be an individual...

So I have a BIG Spring kickoff show comming up in 2 weeks to show off all the new products. Since I am new I depend on my director alot to guide my through things. I am waiting on my SAT to arrive, my director told me I was at the $1500 level, I called HO to see where my package was and they...

I have a question? First I need to know if this is legal advertising? Has anybody ever made their own coupons? I have a friend who is a realtor wanting me to put business cards and maybe some type of personal discount coupon in there packets they give to customers. It would just be a coupon...

I have a customer that attended a show back in the middle of October that wants to return some things. The show shipped the end of October which means the free 30 day shipping ended the end of November. She never received her products until the 18th of November because although it arrived to...

Hi, I am really excited because I called our old agent and she helped me to get time at their next regional meeting (3 different offices) to present Pampered Chef as gifts to give to clients when they close on a house. I will have about 10 minutes to present, so I want to make sure that I...

Does anybody know the pizza recipe with the sugar cookie crust with powdered sugar and cream cheese? topped with fruit?

I want to start approaching real estate agencies in my neighborhood with the possibility of giving Pampered Chef products as gifts for new home buyers. I would really appreciate any information (and/or flyers) you may have to help me. This site has been a godsend to me! I don't have much time...

I am seeking a small cadre of committed PC consultants with at least 1 solid recruit, who want to -promote to FD within next 30 days -promote to Director by NatConference -ramp up their business to 2 shows/week -commit to one another and "knock their PC business out of the park" -contact...

Has anyone used the downloadable invites from CC? I was so excited at conference to have them announce this. Today, I created one for my party in a couple of weeks. I printed it & was so disappointed. I can't stand how it leaves the outline of the box where you can type a personal message...

I had a customer ask very specific questions about the pastry mat last night. Anyone who has the pastry mat and has used it please let me know how it really works. The customer is my host's sister and the host is a friend. Not that it makes a difference, a customer is a customer, but I really...

I need some quick help. I need an easy recipe to demo for a group where there is no oven/stove and only a mini fridge. Anyone have a good non-cook suggestion. I will be doing it during the evening so daylight is also limited. This is a last minute show opp and I am at a lost on what to suggest...

I am loving this theme! Everyone that I am booking wants to have a Real Food, Real Fast show. I also just saw a commercial for Hormel microwave meals.... The last thing the announcer said was ....Real Food, Real Fast! Do you think any of the recipes would be good reheated the next day...

I have my first, what I call, "real" show (not for a close friend or relative) coming up. I don't know the host from Adam, she was my only booking (and by default winner) from my Yard Sale advertising (I offered a drawing for free ingredients of you booked in June, July or August). The...

I just returned home from the Bridal Shower I had today......WOW! I know my best Show Total shows $5000 - but that was a fundraiser that I worked on for a whole month. I consider today to be my REAL highest show total! $1525! I knew it was going to be good when I walked in and was handed...

While searching the internet today I found a few sites where people have made their own "Pampered Chef" website, using the discover the chef in you slogan. My question is this, I feel like I would be a tattle tale but I want to tattle about it. Who do contact?

I have a booth at an upcoming Real Estate Convention that will have over 5,000 real estate agents in attendance. The convention is for their continuing education requirements. I'm trying to figure out what to display on my table and the kinds of hand-outs I want. I have a prize drawing wheel...

Does anyone have a letter or something they have submitted to a real estate office for gifts at house closing and such? We have like a gazillion real estate offices here and I would like to get something out to them in case anyone would be interested.

I've seen alot of games listed on here that basically the person "wins" doing a PC party. I'm curious as to how many of you have had people upset about their "prize"? I know that in the past, when I have been at a party (not PC) the consultant had little "gadgets" that she passed around to...

I have three shows scheduled for March. My first one is on the 19th. (I scheduled them out that far because I wanted to make sure I got the freebies that are between 3/16-4/20) Anyways I was thinking about making the 30 minute chicken recipe with the aioli spread for sandwiches. For dessert I...

I've been home just about 2 hours now and have entered all the orders from this show!! I'm so excited!!!! This hostess was a former consultant, so she knows her stuff, which made it really nice. I didn't have to host coach really. She had 9 guests in attendance and brought me 8 outside...
