Just had a July Show cancel...sure hope it's not starting a trend!
At least I have over a month to fill that date!
 
That stinks. Hope you fill it!
 
I haven't offered to kick anyone's ankle in a while. Need me to pay a visit to this non-host?
 
If I get one more July show, I'll send them your way... I usually only do 3 or so shows a month. Now this month since I decided to take the week of conference "off", I have about 6 people wanting shows and possibly two more fundraisers! Yikes!!! But could I get two shows in June to save my life or earn free stuff you ask, NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. But EVERYONE wants July. Oh well. At least my Aug 8th check will be a nice one!

Not this one! She has a very good excuse.....she's caring for a friend w/ a brain tumor, who just took a turn for the worse, and is canceling most commitments for July, because she wants to be available for him.

But if I get another one - I'm calling you up for duty Rae!:D
 
My foot is at your disposal.

And there is still plenty of free stuff to be earned in July too!

Right now, I still have 6 Cooking shows and a Catalog Show for July......but I really want to hit the $3000 mark for July too - it would be my first ever $3000 July! My goal is to sell $3000 a month for the next 6 months!

Yahoo!!!Just filled the date!

I remembered there was someone who wanted that week. She was going to be on vacation, and wanted to do her show during that week - but the days I work were already filled. I just emailed her to see if she wanted the open date - and she took it! :D

I'm just glad the other host let me know in time to fill the date!


Katie - I'm crunched for time in July also! All of my shows have to be held between July 14-July 30. And I don't work Sundays, Wednesdays, or Fridays! So, I want a full schedule, but all the shows I book NEED to hold - because I don't have any room to over-book for July!
 

Frequently Asked Questions

What should I do if my July show was cancelled?

If your July show was cancelled, the first step is to reach out to your Pampered Chef consultant. They can help you find a new date that works for you and your guests. It's important to communicate your preferences and availability to ensure a smooth rescheduling process.

How can I choose a new date for my show?

When selecting a new date for your show, consider factors such as guest availability, holidays, and any other events that might conflict. Your consultant can provide a calendar of available dates and help you choose one that maximizes attendance.

Will I lose any promotions or discounts if I reschedule?

Typically, any promotions or discounts that were available for your original July show will still apply to the new date. However, it's best to confirm this with your consultant to ensure you don't miss out on any special offers.

How much notice do I need to give when rescheduling?

It's recommended to give at least two weeks' notice when rescheduling your show. This allows your consultant enough time to prepare and inform your guests about the new date. However, the sooner you can communicate your new date, the better!

Can I still invite the same guests to the rescheduled show?

Absolutely! You can invite the same guests to your rescheduled show. In fact, it's a great opportunity to remind them about the new date and encourage them to attend. Your consultant can also assist in sending out updated invitations or reminders.
