I just got this email from the bride of the PC Shower I did last Saturday. This woman and her bridesmaids were not the easiest to work with to being with and now this!
This is my original email, which I send after EVERY show. I even edited hers a bit so as not to reveal more information about her earnings.
How do I respond to this???? I am so fed up with these people! What do I have to apologize for? Of course I'll have to eat crow or lose customers..........ugh.
I have to tell you that the first part of this e-mail was nice to send. The second half disturbed me since you let everyone who had already bought me gifts how much free product I got. This was a bridal shower, not a regular Pampered Chef Party, and I wish you wouldn't have given them the information about hosting a party, buying more products, and especially the detailed information about how much I earned by being host and how much I saved. I thought it was kind of tacky. I never knew you were going to send out that e-mail. I wish you would have ran it past me before you sent it out. It would be much appreciated if you would send an e-mail to the guests you originally sent the e-mail to and apologize. Thank you!

Hi everyone!
It was so nice to see you all at XXXX’s Pampered Chef Bridal Shower on Saturday. Thanks so much for coming to help us pamper xxxx and xxxx.
Hopefully you had a great time, sampled some delicious food and picked up a few tips! I have attached the Mandarin Pasta Salad recipe that we made. Let me know how it turns out if you make it for your family.
xxxx and I completed her order and everything has been submitted. It will take two weeks or less for the products to ship out. Everything is being sent to Gloria’s house. Once they arrive, you can pick up your new tools there.
A new feature that Pampered Chef is offering is our spectacular ONLINE OUTLET where you can find retired products at huge discounts. To access the outlet, visit my website. Scroll to bottom of page, click on SHOP ONLINE. Click PLACE AN ORDER under Option #2. Click OUTLET SPECIALS at the bottom of the menu on the left. Past hosts receive an EXTRA 10% off on all Outlet items with their PHD number! The Outlet changes from time to time, so be sure to order it TODAY before it is gone. Bookmark my site so you can visit again.
This email is also your notification that you are being added to my newsletter mailing list (if you are not already on it). I send out email updates a couple times a month with recipes, tips, and specials. You may change your email address or unsubscribe at any time—just let me know. I hope you find it useful - please feel free to pass it along to anyone you think may be interested!
I am always looking for fun loving people to join my team or host future parties, so please keep me in mind and let me know when you’d like to take advantage of all Pampered Chef has to offer. With your help, xxxx received many items on her registry list and then received many more20for free, half price, and at a deep discount by using the host rewards. xxxx received $140 in products for free and saved over $250 on her order as the “host”!! Throw yourself another bridal shower by hosting your own party and you can get similar rewards!
If xxxx had been the Consultant for this Show, she would have earned $153.90 for a few hours work and fun. If you would like to explore how The Pampered Chef business might fit in your life, please let me know! I’d love to treat you to a cup of coffee and chat about it. Join in April and you can receive our Deep Covered Baker (valued at $69) for FREE!!!
I love referrals, too! Do you know someone who is looking for a part time job or has a great personality? Know someone who throws great parties? Send them my way and I’ll give you a referral gift when they become a consultant or book a party!
Please keep me in mind if you ever need anything in the future....birthday gifts, bridal shower gifts, housewarming gifts, "any time" gifts, something for yourself, etc!! You don’t have to attend a party to place an order.
Once you receive your products, please be sure to give each of them a try as soon as you get them, (TAKE THEM OUT OF THE BOX!) and let me know if you have any questions or concerns. Pampered Chef will pay for return shipping within the first 30 days, so be sure to check that everything is in one piece. Remember, most of your Pampered Chef products are guaranteed for at least a year (others 3 years, 5 years, or even a lifetime), so hold on to that sales receipt in case you ever need it.
Thanks again for such a fun time. Without you, I'd have no business in the kitchen!
