You got me... I am the girl from the call! :D

Here's the gig.
I will ask during host coaching if they have a microwave and the approximate size. If they have booked from a recent show, they know that I will be doing this, so they will tell me if the DCB should fit.
I buy and bring the chicken in the DCB and I bring a prep bowl that has a bit of paprika, a bit of the rosemary seasoning and a bit of kosher salt.
When I arrive I check to see if the DCB fits, if it does fabulous, if it doesn't the gig is up and I put the whole thing in the fridge and take it back home with me. (It's the thought that counts, right?)

So after the guests have arrived and before I do anything else I tell them that I am so happy they came and that I have something AMAZING to show them and a special present for my host...
"A raw chicken! Ta-Daa!" and I open the DCB and show them :)
Then I do my spiel about the baker and what it can do, yada yada. While I am talking I just sprinkle the seasoning on and spritz with olive oil (cross sell, of course!) and COVER IT and put it in the microwave for 22 minutes.

I then proceed to do my regularly scheduled show.
When the Microwave goes off that is my mental que to hurry up and finish so I know I have about 10 minutes left.
The I go get it and with much fanfare uncover for them to see how yummy-licious it is!
I then remind them features/ benefits/ uses and direct them to my website for recipes.

At my first show I did this I sold 4.

So..... 4 x $65 = $260 um, that is the present for the host :)
More guest sales and a bit more food.

This is way longer than I ever type, but I wanted you to get a clear picture, feel free to ask questions if you need clarification.
Thanks,
Cheryl

Thanks for sharing that Cheryl. I think you were the one that came to the phone call really early, weren't you. I was like 2nd or 3rd there. It was a great conversation to start the call with!
 
That was me :) I broke more than one speed limit getting home :)
I LOVE Nancy Jo and I do my best to never miss her when she is available to us.
I really didn't know others were on the call me and that girl Trish were just chatting about her show average. It was a nice lead in for Nancy. Thanks:blushing:
