Are you fully booked for March yet?

[K_Jurich]

I have 4 cooking shows, right now but I AM HOPING TO get MORE!!!!

 

[Gina M]

Only 2 cooking shows but I have a show tomorrow night so hoping to book some more there.

After recovering from a very busy February, I have 3 catalog and 1 cooking show on my calender. I'm satisfied with that because of the Easter holiday and I will be on work training trip to Denver at the end of the month. I need the break....

 

[PartiesbyJamie]

so glad i'm not alone
i only have one that's mine - on the plus side I have a new consultant kick off show & another consultant that I gave up 5 shows to in march!! At least they will do well in 1st 30 days!!

 

[stacywhitlow]

I have 6 cookings shows (which is all I can do since DH will be gone most of month & we have 4 kids) plus 2 catty shows. I have 1 cooking so far for April.

 

[akggirl]

Do I count my own Open House as a party? That's all I have, maybe one catalog show too. My 3 week vacation in Jan killed my business! How do you all get so many catalog shows? G-

 

[baychef]

9 shows and 2 catalog (possibly a 10th, but it is getting too close to the date and I can not reach the host)
April I will be going on the cruise and I only have 2 shows for right now. From then on, I may have trouble getting bookings because I start opening my parents' cottages:yuck: The darn things are cleaner than my own home!!! This along with a full time job and a son graduating in June (that is if he can stop being late for his first two classes..he may be looking at summer school):cry::grumpy: That is a whole nuther Oprah show!!!

Are you using the new products to Tease them Gina?!? When I brought my Fave Collapsable Bowl with my last show I got 2 bookings from it!:love: Good luck!

Yes, count your Open House!

You need to talk about catalog shows. Or at the very least, when you ask everyone (you are doing that at checkout, right?), when they say that they're too busy or whatever for a live show, ask them if they want to get the benefits of a show by passing a catalog around.

Hey Heather! You betcha! I actually have some guys who are supposed to be at my show tomorrow night as well - so I will be pushing bookings to get the cookware and cutlery (cause you know how the guys love those!)

 

[AZPampered Chef]

Ok, well I'm glad I'm not the only one having trouble with March. At THREE of my Feb. cooking shows I had moms literally announcing to the room to NOT BOOK IN MARCH because of Easter and Spring break. Do you think that had anything to do with it?!?!

I do have 4 catty shows, but I'd much rather them be cooking shows.

Oh well, at least I have a good start on April.

 

[Brandi2007]

I have 5 cooking shows booked so far. I will have more. My goal for the month is 10... even if it comes out as catalog shows. I had 12 this month and it was very profitable. Gotta stay on track so I can get myself to Mexico!

 

[bsaxman]

ugh. i have ZERO! But I do have one booking for may already, so does that count????

 

[baychef]

Here in NY state, we had our winter break in February. We have our spring break in April. If you want to meet anyone from my area...just go to Myrtle Beach, SC. For some reason everyone likes to go to the same place (won't find me there..when I go on vacation I go to get away!!)
Luckily, March will be fairly good for us. When Easter is in April, it is a very bad month...it blows a good two week time frame out of the month.
Our colleges end in May and our schools end in the third week in June (graduation is usually around June 24th). We are on a different schedule. (Darn Yankees can't cooperate at all!!!!)

 

[mama2emma]

I have 4 cooking shows and 1 catalog show booked for March; I already have 6 cooking shows booked for April! Half my April shows are because of hosts insisting their friends book in April so they can get the collapsible bowl as a past host benefit.

 

[letscook04]

So far I only have 2! :yuck:

 

[c00p]

For whatever reason, folks aren't wanting to book in March. Maybe it's the host specials???Dunno - but April is looking good for me. I've got 4 in March, but I normally have 6.....

 

[DebbieJ]

Booked another Catty show....so six cooking and four catty

 

[climbercanoe3]

Yup here in MA Spring Break is a college term. They have vacation in March. The other schools all have Feb and Apr vacation the same as Ann E. The rest is the same except graduation is usually June 6th or so. Usually the Seniors get out a few weeks/month earlier than the rest of the kids.

[DebbieJ]

Nah, it's easier when you pick up the phone and ask people!

 

[rennea]

Nah, it's easier when you pick up the phone and ask people!

Yes your right!! But now you can say "hello this is Debbie calling your famous Pampered chef Consultant"

When host coaching you'll have to let the hosts know you'll only sign autographs at "check out" time

Just got another catalog show tonight from an old friend of mine who I haven't spoken with in eons..she called me saying she wanted to catch up before she told me of her "Pampered Chef disaster"...we chatted for a bit and when I asked what was going on w/ PC, she said her husband broke FOUR of her stones tonight..!!!!! She said he was making dinner and one fell right after another on top of him, apparantly she stacks hers..four of them shattered, including her prized seasoned round stone so she asked if she could do a book show to get some of them back! LOL

OH, and she bought ONE from me, which is still under warranty, BUT, she bought the rest from GARAGE SALES!!!! She was so proud when she got them too, she called me saying "I just bought such and such for $5..." I told her tonight that came back to bite her in the you know what cuz those aren't replaceable!!! LOL

Don't you just love the "I told you so" moments Well it's good that she thought of you right away.

 

[epimomma99]

I have 3 cooking shows, 2 catty shows, & my open house this Sunday. Has everyone called past hosts to let them know about the NEW Spring products and maybe offer as an incentive to have a show in March the Season's Best as a free gift when their show is submitted.

 

[StacieB]

1 cooking, 1 wedding Shower, 1 Vendor Booth

 

[JAE]

I have 4 kitchen shows and one catalog show. My show tonight cancelled due to illness, so I could possibly get another show. I only have two or three open dates for March and it's possible to fill at least one with a booking from Monday's show. One can hope.
