OK I have my 1st. show this Sat. I was wondering if I could get some feed back on playing a game during my show.
 
I would highly recomend the queen of shoppers. I do this at all my shows and everyone loves being able to see the new products and of course winning. If you need more info on what exactly Queen of shoppers is, let me know

Tell me more about Queen of Shoppers. Thanks:love:
 
I don't do games, but I do love the ticket activity game. Great way to inform guests about host rewards and biz opportunity. If you do a search for it, you'll see lots of great versions of it.

Good luck on your 1st show!
 
If you go under the files sections and search queen of shoppers several files will appear. Make sure you open the one for the fall/winter 2010 catalog. In this file is a list of little rhymes about our products.

Essenitally you are doing a scavenger hunt through the catalog. So you read the first clue and at the end you will list a product everyone grabs there catalog and flips through till they find the product, they then yell out the page number and the first one to get it right gets a gift.

The gift is usually a sesons best and or seasoning wrapped in a bag you dont want anyone to know what they are playing for just that they get a gift.

Ok so you will then read clue two and the person to get the page number takes the gift (no peeking) you continue this process as you go through all the clues. Once you get to the end the first person to guess the last clue gets to keep the gift.

I find this helpful bc it helps me talk a little more about the new products and its a productive game.

I really hope my explenation makes since if not PM me and I can get your email or phone number and can try explaining again.
 
I don't play games either. The ticket activity has opened so many doors for my business. You can find the questions and answers on consultants corner. You can also find the labels on CC that you can print out on your catalogs and have your guests read them. This idea is in the newest consult news.

Good luck on your first show!

Make sure to gather all necessary supplies and materials, including order forms, catalogs, and any tools you'll need for the demonstration.

How can I effectively invite guests to my first show?

When inviting guests to your first show, be enthusiastic and personal. Use a combination of methods such as social media, email, and phone calls to reach out. Share what they can expect from the show, including fun recipes, product demonstrations, and the opportunity to order products. Encourage them to bring friends for a more enjoyable experience.

What products should I feature during my first show?

Choose a few popular and versatile products that showcase the Pampered Chef brand well. Consider featuring items that are easy to demonstrate and have broad appeal, such as the Food Chopper, Mix N' Chop, or a popular stoneware piece. Highlight products that can be used in the recipes you plan to prepare during the show.

How do I handle questions from guests during the show?

Encourage questions throughout your presentation to create an engaging atmosphere. If you know the answer, respond confidently and provide additional information. If you’re unsure about something, it’s perfectly fine to say you’ll find out and follow up later. This shows your guests that you value their inquiries and are committed to providing accurate information.

What should I do after my first show?

After your first show, follow up with your guests to thank them for attending and to remind them about their orders. Send personalized messages or emails to express your appreciation.
