Choosing the Correct Show Number for Receipts: A Guide for Direct Sellers

[thehaleykitchen]

I'm new to all this but I have a question:

I have shows booked in P3, some with later dates than others. I have had a show booked for Feb 28th for almost a month (show #4 in P3, but really will be show#11), but I also have two catalog shows this week (show #7 and #8). When putting the show number on the receipt, should I use the show number that matches in P3, or use my actual show number?

Thanks,
Karen

I personally do not put the show number on the receipt but you should go by the number in P3. It doesn't really matter the order of how your shows are entered but the numbers need to match.

They do need to match- because when you submit it, that's the Show Number that Customer Service will have on record. If the customer ever calls to do a return (or another consultant, or even YOU), you'll need the Show Number of record.This is why I am going to start sending P3 printed receipts to my customers- not just the 3-ply receipts you hand write. (Since you're knew, that's the Receipts you print through P3- you have to by the P3 Receipt Paper from Supply because it has the back-side filled out with the guarantee information). But when you print them, it has ALL the information: Host name, show date & show #, your name/consultant ID, product they purchased and it's warranty coverage info. And the customer service info is on the back. So no matter where they are, as long as they have their receipt, they can get their customer service taken care of.

This is one of the reasons I use the P3 receipts. I always forget to write in all that stuff on the 3-ply one. It does have my stamp on it, which does have my contact info and consultant number, but no show number.

Hi Karen,Welcome to the world of Pampered Chef! It's great to hear that you have shows already booked in P3, and even better that you have a show coming up on February 28th. As for your question about show numbers, it's completely up to you. Some consultants prefer to use the show number that matches in P3 for consistency, while others prefer to use the actual show number. Ultimately, it won't make a big difference, as long as you keep track of all your shows and their corresponding numbers. If you're still unsure, you can always reach out to your upline or the Pampered Chef support team for their advice. Keep up the great work and happy cooking! Best,
