Excited for My First Interview with The Pampered Chef: Any Tips?

[DZmom]

from the festival on Friday and Saturday! I'm meeting the girl at the local coffee shop to talk. I'm a little nervous! I'd really like to recruit a couple of people since I did hand out 12 packets and still have another 10 or so to contact that I didn't even talk to about the biz. They just marked the slip and folded it up and didn't ask any questions at the booth.

I believe I know what to say and that I need to learn to shut up, but if any of you have any words of wisdom I'd really appreciate it.

Thanks so much!

Do you know about the 7 questions?

 

[supergirljennie]

I'd like to hear the 7 seven questions!

 

[DZmom]

I have a print out that I got from here, but from who and what it's called is a mystery.

Ten Questions to ask a potential team member.

1. Are you ready to order your kit, or do you need more information?

2. What did I say that sparked your interest in PC?

3. Why are you interested in PC?

4. What qualities do you have that will make you a great PC consultant? (Some will say none...I'm a stay at home mom or something like that...I then go on to explain that they must be able to multi task well to be a stay at home mom...you can find qualities for everyone! If they were a waitress, WOW, I'm sure you have wonderful peole skills!) Whatever their answer make sure you suggest other qualities they might have!

5. What do you want from PC? (Heart Tug)

6. How can PC make your life better? (Heart Tug)

7. What is your biggest fear with joining my team? (Some have none...others will have many! If you get those fears out in the open and address them...you are helping her/him get over those fears!)

8. How much do you want to work? How much money do you want to make?

9. When do you want your first paycheck?

10. THE MOST IMPORTANT THING!!! Can we fill out your kit order form??

Don't forget to make the close(question 10)!!! A lot of people get scared and don't ask the final question! Don't make that mistake!!!


I typed that up verbatium from the printout I have. If it's yours, THANK YOU!!

Here we go:Recruiting is EASY!!(It REALLY is!) · Breaking the Barriers· Leading by Exampleo Recruit “half of your Hosts” each month is a great place to start§ What is the average number our Directors are holding each month?· (8 is what Directors usually tell me!)· Then that would be 4 new consultants each month WITHOUT even considering other guests at shows.o Once we consider those guests:§ 8 shows x 10 in attendance = 80 people we have an audience with each month. · WHY is it hard to consistently recruit? J o It all starts at Host Coaching!Most people talk themselves into, out of, and back into joining before they sign. Right then & there when you are booking the show, say: “Mary, I make it a point to tell all of my Hosts about the earning opportunities available to you as a Pampered Chef Consultant, because oftentimes Hosts like to use their show as a springboard to start their new business. I especially wanted to talk to you about it because … (insert personal compliment! J) Have you ever thought of doing anything like this before?” If the answer is yes, or if the answer is no, proceed, and tell her you would love to have her on your team, and invite her to have a cup of coffee with you to hear more about it.Remember, you are not asking her to sign right then & there, your INTENTION is to get the interview…set the appointment! o THEN even if she decides NOT to join your team, you will have another opportunity to present it again the night of her show! “Mary, I know when we last talked, the answer was no, but I still haven’t given up on you! Let me just show you something! First, look at the sales tonight…do you realize that I just made $XXX for hanging out & eating with you girls!? But here’s what I really want to know: Three of your friends booked shows here tonight…Are you going to go to those shows and spend money? (Of course the answer will be YES!) Then why not go out and MAKE money those nights!? I know you were thinking about it, and you know that you’ll never know if our opportunity is right for you, unless you TRY! What do you say? Let’s just do this! “· Besides the Host, who else is there?o What is a recruit lead?§ Fold the corners · The interviewo Seven Questionso Ask every potential consultant these 7 questions and then tell the Pampered Chef Story as it relates to his/her answers: 1. Why did you agree to see me today?2. Have you ever done anything like this before?3. What other work experiences have you had?4. What clubs or organizations do you belong to? (hobbies)5. How would your family feel if you were going to do something like this?6. How much time would you have to give each week if you decided to do this?7. How much money would you like to make? · The closeo It’s only a REAL interview if you ask for the commitment§ Recruiting algebraa. If “X” were not the problem, would you do this?b. Then FIX “X”§ Scale of 1-10a. On a scale of 1-10 (one being “no way.” 10 being “sign me up!” where would you say you are?b. “What would it take to get you to 10? Remember, once you secure the interview, you are 90% there!“I know you are at least thinking about it, or we wouldn’t be talking so much about it…you’ll never know for sure until you try!”
