My newest recruit got a couple of orders while sitting at her desk as a receptionist at a tire store just by having a PC box near her desk. She had her order delivered there. Unfortunatly her boss made her bring it home.
 
LOL That's thinking outside the box! Too bad the boss didn't like her doing her PC business on his clock. ;)
 
maybe she can pamper her boss and he won't mind having an extra box in the shop.
 
That's a great idea where allowed but most businesses actually want employees to work while on the job and the distraction is frowned upon. How about the break room? Or a decal on their car?
 
I worked at the same company for 10 years. I too would have loved to be able to stuff like that but alas, it was considered a distraction to even have anything PC on my desk. So, I made a deal with HR. I could bring in products at the beginning of each selling season and put them in the break room for a week. That was it. I kept catties and order forms and even a full copy of P3 on my computer, my immediate boss knew I had it and was not worried about it as long as I did my job and the upper ups did not find out. So...
 
John, that's funny, because I have the opposite problem at work. I'm not allowed to leave catalogs, etc., in the kitchen, but can leave a note (or send an e-mail) stating I have them at my desk, and please feel free to stop by to check them out.Somehow, having them in the kitchen is viewed as 'pressuring' people to buy. Employees are also not allowed to go around asking people to buy GS cookies, or whatever, but they can send an e-mail.

I work at a plant that is open 24/7. I can sell or advertise anytime before or after my shift. I don't know how that rule is doing any good. The people that I'm selling to are working. Shhhh. Don't tell my boss.
 
Hi there! It's great to hear that your newest recruit was able to get some orders while sitting at her desk at the tire store. The Pampered Chef delivery box is definitely a great way to advertise our products and attract potential customers. It's also convenient for those who may not have time to attend a party or browse through a catalog. I'm sorry to hear that her boss made her bring it home, but hopefully she can still use it as a conversation starter and attract more orders in the future. Keep up the great work and happy selling!
