A popular thing that some consultants had been doing was putting a small amount of a rub in a small resealable food-safe baggie (very small, like 1" x 2") and handing them out at vendor events with a recipe and consultant info on them. Then I could've sworn that HO asked us to stop doing it...
Unless you are one of the minority who actually PAYS OFF the credit card every month, you are wasting money on interest. After going through Financial Peace University, boy did we ever learn a lot. We haven't accumulated new debt in about six months, including having our FIRST debt-free...
For those of you who have had a rough go of it, I am in my 11th year as a PC Consultant. And I had no parties in June or July. Just could not get it together enough what with the new job and weird, ever changing schedule. It has NOT been the same days or times each week so I could not schedule...
The best FREE recruiting tip I can give you is to STOP using the word recruiting!
The word itself is a technical term with negative connotations. By eliminating it from your vocabulary and replacing it with words like sharing, creating income or sponsoring you will improve your ability to...
A friend of mine sells 31 and asked me if I'd like to help her organize a Stop & Shop event for the beginning of December. She has a friend who runs a local hotel and might be able to let us use a banquet room for free or at a low cost.
Having never done one before, I'm looking for ideas...
Aaargh. I was horrified when I tried to submit my host's show from February. Got a message that the small & medium cranberry plates were gone!
Didn't collect all the funds from the host until Monday on the way to work. Had to wait until Tuesday to deposit to my bank. Wish I would have made...
I had a lady that booked a catalog show with me at a show in August, I sent her the information and did host coaching the beginning of September, she seemed to be really excited about it all. And that was it........I have not heard from her since, I have left a few messages and nothing. So do...
I posted a picture of an Ice Cream Nachos recipe that I made at a show recently and shared it on the main Pampered Chef page. Several people have requested the recipe and that's fine--I will share it.One gal keeps sending me a friend request and even sent me a private message saying she looks...
Just got an email about the DCB's being on stop sell, and as of July, the cranberry one will be host only!!! That bites, I have been pushing them hard!!!!!:cry:
I sure hope the issue gets resolved, I have no parties in June, and 2 parties in July. I may have to send out an email to my past...
I'm guessing I'm going to have to call someone at HO for help but I thought I'd ask if this has happened to anyone else:
So the party I did on Friday was a booking from my party last month. I want to order the mixing bowls for 60% off. I put it in P3 along with my past host number and for...
I was at a mechanic shop today wearing my PC shirt and started talking to the only 2 females that worked there about PC. A mechanic (male) came up to me and asked if he could order a pizza stone. I would have never thought to approach him first about PC.
I had a show last month. A TW consultant was the host. During her PC show she kept referring to her TW biz. It was annoying, but was tolerable...kinda.
Fast forward to last weekend. Did a cooking show for the SIL of the TW consultant. Saturday's host booked off of TW lady's show. So, of...
Sorry for the dumb question...I have been "out of it" business wise since Connor was born, and I just had a customer email me about her strainer, so I popped online to check how long the warranty was...but I can't find it on my webiste online catalog!! (It's the one you would drain pasta by...
And, what will we all want to stop doing in 2009? My first thought is no more than 2 trips to my car to carry into parties, if I have to make 3, I'll cut down my stash.
Hey guys~
I scheduled a Holiday open house type event (called it a Stop N Shop) on a Saturday, Dec 6th and I'm not getting a good turn out in terms of RSVPs..do you think I should either keep it that day and hope the maybes come or reschedule to a weekday evening? Just not sure what to do...
Hello everyone!
I just have a quick question. I am doing a Stop and Shop tomorrow and hopefully I will get some orders.
My question is, can I put the orders in like I hosted my own show? The reason I am asking is, I do Quarter Auctions and I would like to use the free products for my auction...
Sorry to sound so silly....with all that is going on in our family life, I can not remember what items are currently on stop sell! Is it still all of the Christmas stuff...plates, platter, and spreaders?
I remember reading that the spreaders will NOT be available at all, but I don't remember...
I'm starting to get confused as to what is okay and what isn't! This is what I think:
Holiday Spreaders - Stop Sell
Dot's Wine Glasses - Back Order
What about the Holiday Plates and Platter?
Anything I'm missing?
Hey all!
I haven't seen one of these yet, so I made one up for my show.
You can track guests who are interested in our stop sell items (Holiday stuff) and then call them when they are available!
I just sent an email to HO asking for a section on CC that lists the info we get in the PC News Wire for discontinued/stop sell products.
I know we have the BackOrder section, but it doesn't really provide good info. For example, why is the Chillzane mini-bowl still listed when many on here...
Maybe I'm missing the boat on this one, but why isn't the fork and spoon on stop sell if the spreader is? I e-mailed HO about it and never got a response. :confused:
Just got this E-Mail I have a very large fundraiser and almost all 900 packets are almost done how the hell am I going to put stop sell stickers on all 900 catalogs for 3 products .Can't they find these things out before the products are ready to be sold

Dear Consultant...
I have a new consultant that told me to stop calling her so much because she doesn't need help. Well obviously she does because she's had 3 shows where no one showed up and we're now past her 30 days. Well that's fine...I can let that go.
What I'm frustrated about is I just received an email...
With all the talk of theme shows and power cooking ... I am finding myself sending recipe lists to my hosts that may seem just a bit overwhelming!
Can someone please suggest to me some fun, easy, popular recipes to pitch to hosts?
I was thinking of keeping it simple .. three themes with...
I am sorry if this had been addressed over and over, but I searched and can't find an updated answer.
I have a host asking me about her backordered sheet pans. Have we heard anything new? She wants to know how much longer it's going to be.
Thanks! I feel so out of the loop, since I...
