After finals and the holidays I wasn't super excited about pc because I didn't have a lot of shows booked due to finals, and cramming a 14 week course into 3 weeks over winter break (which I ended up dropping this class :p)

Well I am only $532 away from $15,000 in sales and a 2% raise and I have only been doing this for 7 months so I am super excited about this. I just got off the phone with my host that is having a show this friday. She already has $200 in outside orders and 13 firm yes's for the show!! Then to top it off she already has 2 people that want to have parties :D The host is from my dh work place that has been having a lot of parties and the bookings are not from work so that means new people! I am so excited about getting the raise that I just had to share!!
 
Congrats to you. A Grand job done. Hope to follow in your footsteps I am on my 2nd month.
Wish me luck.
 
Way to go! I was at your level (made $15K) at 7 months also, and the 2% Raise is awesome! Congrats and keep it up!~

Thank you.

Deb I'm sure that you will not have a problem. One thing that helped me out was I did a couple of shifts at fairs in the summer. This helped me expand out of my comfort zone. I also always have fun at my shows. I like to play pampered poker and I just found a game from another ds company of deal or no deal. I'm going to be typing this up tonight or tomorrow and I'll share it with everyone when I have it finished.
 
Oh, I want deal or no deal too!!
 
yes, I was reading others ideas on games. My husband made me a pair of big dice out of wood to play roll a booking game. I can't wait to try it out.
 

Frequently Asked Questions

What does it mean to have 2 parties and $200 in orders for a 2% raise?

This means that if you successfully host two parties and generate at least $200 in sales from those parties, you will qualify for a 2% increase in your commission rate. This is an incentive designed to encourage consultants to boost their sales and party hosting activities.

How can I ensure I reach the $200 in orders?

To reach $200 in orders, focus on inviting a diverse group of guests to your parties, showcasing popular products, and offering promotions or incentives for orders. Engaging with your guests and providing excellent customer service can also help increase sales.

Is the 2% raise permanent?

Yes, once you qualify for the 2% raise by meeting the criteria of hosting two parties and achieving $200 in orders, the raise will apply to your future commissions. However, it's important to maintain your sales and party hosting activities to keep your commission rate at that level.

What if I don't reach the $200 in orders?

If you don't reach the $200 in orders, you will not qualify for the 2% raise. However, you can still benefit from other incentives and opportunities within Pampered Chef. It's a good idea to analyze what worked and what didn't to improve your future parties.

Can I combine orders from different parties to reach the $200 goal?

No, the $200 in orders must come from the two specific parties you host to qualify for the raise. Each party's sales are tracked separately, so it's important to focus on maximizing sales during each individual event.
