I am missing my sales also and I just got off the phone and they told me that it will take a day for things to show back up

i did not start over i called my director and she said no i did not
 
My Career Sales shows $0 also- but if I switch the view to Previous Month (June), I see my sales #s again. So probably just how the program switches over at the beginning of the month and playing catch up.
 
I also learned this week from Patti Mocerino that if you go to the Incentive Calculator, everything shows up on it within hours...
 

Frequently Asked Questions

What are outlet orders in Pampered Chef?

Outlet orders refer to products that are available at discounted prices through the Pampered Chef outlet. These items are typically discontinued or seasonal products that are still in good condition and can be sold to customers at a lower price, helping consultants boost their sales while providing value to their clients.

How can I incorporate outlet orders into my catalog shows?

You can incorporate outlet orders into your catalog shows by showcasing these discounted items alongside your regular product offerings. Highlighting the savings and unique items available through the outlet can attract more customers and encourage them to place orders during the show.

What are catalog shows and how do they work?

Catalog shows are a type of Pampered Chef party where the consultant provides catalogs to guests who can then place orders from the comfort of their own homes. This format is ideal for those who may not be able to attend a traditional cooking show, and it allows for a longer selling period, often resulting in increased sales.

How can I promote outlet orders during my catalog shows?

To promote outlet orders during your catalog shows, you can create a special section in your catalog highlighting these items, use social media to showcase the deals, and personally reach out to potential customers to inform them about the outlet products. Additionally, consider offering incentives for purchasing outlet items, such as discounts or free shipping.

What are the benefits of understanding outlet orders for my sales career?

Understanding outlet orders can significantly enhance your sales career by allowing you to offer customers great deals, increase your overall sales volume, and attract a wider audience. By effectively promoting these discounted items, you can build customer loyalty and encourage repeat business, ultimately leading to greater success in your direct sales efforts.
