Booking Binder...what Do You Do?

[EgresiPC]

Hello all,

Just wondering what you put in your booking binder and why. I've been wanting to get one together for a while but I don't want to overwhelm my guests with too much information. So, I want to know what you include, why you include it, and how you use it. Any other advice you might have about using a booking binder would be helpful as well.

Thanks in advance!

My binder includes:

Theme show display cards, What you get for $150 flyer, What does it take to host? flyer, upcoming host specials, current recruiting special, a couple of paychecks, Level 1 Certificate of Achievement from last year & Once Upon A Consultant flyer.

As for the why... I think it's kind of self explanatory (sp?)... My What you get for $150 flyer shows differences between spending $150 as a guest, customer & new consultant. My What does it take to host flyer is just a word document I created showing what I do for my hosts.

Crystal,

Could you post these please?

Thanks!

I use a Reminder Binder. In the front cover I have a copy of the current host 1/2 price combo sheet w/host benefits. In page protectors inside, I have the current & upcoming host & guest specials, theme show info, HWC, RUFTH, wedding registry/bridal shower, fundraisers, recruit info w/personal story & commission check. I use it during my talk demo to make sure I cover all pc offers. I will go into detail with some. Then I pass it around for everyone to take a look at.

In my binder I have the current specials for this month and next, the host rewards sheet, my 1st commission check, a picture of what I've done with my PC $$, a wedding flyer and a fundraising file. I go through it quickly at the end and it never seems to be wasting time, plus it gives people more of an opportunity to actually see what a difference PC could make in their lives.

- Current specials for the months I'm booking for (if I'm booking September, I don't put October's specials in for example)
- Host Rewards brochure
- My last 10 cooking shows
- Apron Recruiting Flyer
- Any current recruiting special
- Pampered Bride
- FundraisingI try to keep it really simple, and really...my binder is more focussed on recruiting than bookings.

I promise I'll post it later this week. My schedule is crazy for the next week but I'll get it up Thursday when I get home from vacation.

Thanks for the ideas...keep them coming please.

Winnipegk, when you say you include your last 10 cooking shows, do you mean the rewards the host earned?

I have the current guest special on the front cover, and a theme show card on the back (it is the Game Day one now).

Inside cover: a few copies of my newsletter.
Apron recruiting flyer.
My biggest commission check.
My receipt from the first show I hosted (I earned $215 in products, and wanted to show guests and hosts how easy it was. This is where I throw in the 'why I joined Pampered Chef.')
Fundraiser information.
This months host special, next months host and guest special.
Registry/Bridal show information.
RUFTH flyer.
Come Join Us brochure.
Whatever recruiting promotion and consultant promotion that is going on.
Inside back cover: Mini catalogs.


The biggest reason I do this? Time management. I could talk for hours and this keeps me from doing that. I just say, did you know the Pampered Chef offers fundraisers for any organization? When the book comes around, take a flyer and see me at check out for more information!
