I have a show this Sat. with my hairdresser. We set her show up a month and a half ago. I mailed her EVERYTHING she would need, mailed postcards, called her on an every other week basis. She seemed so busy that I couldn't seem to host coach her as well as I wanted. Even though I spoke with her while she was doing my hair it seemed as though it wasn't enough. I finally called and left a message telling her I needed to speak with her tofind out where I'll be setting up, demo/hands on, etc.
She calls me yesterday frazzled stating she didn't realize how much work this all was. Than she asked me if she needed to buy the items for the recipe. I told her yes and even had mailed her the recipe with instructions, letting her know this was how her show would work. (Right now I can't afford to buy the ingredients myself or I would)(If she would have given me the time on the phone it would have been easier). She went on and on about not having the time to do this and that and I finally said Mary you don't have to stress about a thing. I will follow up on calling people who were interested in coming to the show but couldn't, placing orders etc. She finally said everything will be okay Sat. I agreed and assured her.
My next dilema is she wanted to do the 6'oclock salad grapefruit/chicken recipe, she declined the cheeseburger salad. Since I'm a new consultant I don't have three products, The grill pan which is okay because I'm going to grill the chicken ahead of time in the grill basket. The smaller batter bowl which is also okay because I can improvise and last the salad choppers. I guess I can cut the chicken into strips with my knife. No big deal. But as far as interactive hands on. Not sure what to have guets do. The garlic press, mandoline but I need help maybe because I'm worried. I don't want my host to think it was a big mistake. With 20+ people coming. I want this to be a great interactive hands on show.
What prizes to I give. I wanted to do pampered chef related. But I really haven't made much to go out and purchase products in time for Sat show. HELP!
