jasonmva said:I am in a dry spell as well. My March host had cancelled and she was the only one I had on my books. But since she is planning her wedding, I am hopeful she will do the wedding registry.
One thing I tried was sending an email to all of my past hosts and guests letting them know what the host special was for April. Figured I would jump ahead since I only do weekend shows and the next couple of weekends are a bit busy personally. I am having the fear now of going inactive if I don't get April shows.
Jodi just remember our Personal websites will be DOWN on tuesday for maintenance. ARGGhhhhh I was going to do that too and decided on a NON-Open house for Tuesday. I think i will TRY a WACKY Wednesday. I need it before the 15th also.jodistrauss said:I can't get it together for "Fabulous Friday", but I am trying a "Terrific Tuesday" so I can put the order in before the 15th for the HWC products.

Chefgirl2 said:I went through a slump,last fall...I was getting the sales but no one booked. I started listening to some of the$2 CD's Pampered Chef sells on the supply list.
They are the best.
I found that people want Theme shows and fun.
Instead of going on and on about how much host get free, I talk about how fun it is to get together for a cooking class that we get to leave owning products not just knowledge! Then I compare it to the local cooking classes that people are paying big bucks to attend.
I have been offering soup shows, St Patrick's shows, Mexican Fiesta's, Death by Chocolate, etc...
One tape said a theme is any recipe and how you market it.
Last month I had 11 shows and sales of $7,300.
This month looks even better.
I wish there was a way to conference call through Chef Success. There is so much more I could add.
Thanks ANN, I missed or didn't read the times. I just panicked when I saw Tuesday That is a relief. No Night Owl shows for mechefann said:The websites will be down from midnight to 3 am (CT). So unless you know a lot of night owls, it shouldn't affect you.

lisacb77 said:Elaine, you can set up at a Starbucks?? Please tell details!
One way Starbucks can help is by hosting a "coffee and cookware" event at a local Starbucks location. This will not only expose potential customers to Pampered Chef products, but also create a fun and relaxed atmosphere for booking future shows.
Instead of relying solely on phone calls, try utilizing social media and email to reach out to potential hosts. You can also offer incentives, such as a free product or discount, to encourage bookings. Additionally, consider hosting a virtual party or offering online ordering options to reach a wider audience.
First, try to understand the reasons behind the cancellations. Is it due to scheduling conflicts, lack of interest, or other factors? Once you have a better understanding, you can tailor your approach to address these issues. You can also focus on building relationships with your current customers to encourage repeat bookings and referrals.
Vary your methods of communication and timing when reaching out to potential hosts. Instead of calling every day, try alternating between phone calls, emails, and social media messages. You can also ask for permission to follow up at a later date if the person is not interested in hosting a show at the moment.
Consider hosting a themed party, such as a holiday or seasonal-themed cooking show. You can also collaborate with other local businesses for cross-promotion or offer special promotions and discounts to attract new customers. Don't forget to utilize your personal network for potential hosts and customers as well.
