Hi everyone!
I just got a message from our community life desk - they are doing a Taste o Hometown and asked if I wanted to set up a table for my PC Business.
ABSOLUTELY! Since i've been doing this since Aug and I am my best customer. I would like to sell to other people. =)
But i don't know what to do?!!!
i figurd i would maybe make the applebery salsa and have that in my small bowl caddy and have some recipes out and do a drawing...
I'm so excited that I don't want to miss anything basic.

Yesterday I submitted my supply order and got another 25 catalogs - i figured that would get me threw the summer months... now i wish I ordered more!! Guess i could if this takes off...

Any thoughts?
 
Got a tip for you.We had one here in Racine Wisconsin last October I believe and a couple of consultants from the area were set up there. Together of course. All they did was s simple display of products and had drawing slips out. That was all. I know a lot of people had put in drawing slips so...
Sometimes the bet thing is to keep it simple. The LemonAid lady suggested that one product would be best. Simply put out something great. Then ask people if they are party people? Then explain wha you do if they ask or say yes. (I am not so sure I would go that far as to show only one product but...) But I love the line about being party people.
Best thing, keep it simple! To much is distracting from being able to talkt o people.
 
Hi there! Congratulations on being invited to participate in the Taste of Hometown event with your PC Business! It's always exciting to have the opportunity to showcase your products to a wider audience. It sounds like you have a good idea with the appleberry salsa and having recipes and a drawing. Have you thought about offering samples of your products as well? That way, people can taste the deliciousness of your PC products and be more likely to make a purchase. You could also consider creating a display that showcases the versatility of your products - for example, using the appleberry salsa in a variety of dishes or pairing it with other PC products. This can help attract more attention to your table and give people ideas on how to use your products in their own cooking. In terms of ordering more catalogs, it's always better to have more on hand than not enough. If this event is successful, you'll want to have enough catalogs to hand out to interested customers. And if you do run out, you can always take down their information and follow up with them later. Overall, just have fun with it and be confident in your products. Good luck at the event!
 

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the best ways to set up my booth at the Housing Community Fair?

To effectively set up your booth, create an inviting and organized space. Use a tablecloth that represents your brand colors, display your products prominently, and include clear signage with your business name. Arrange products in an appealing way, and consider using vertical space with shelves or stands. Ensure you have brochures or catalogs available for visitors to take home.

How can I engage visitors at my booth?

Engage visitors by offering hands-on demonstrations of Pampered Chef products. Encourage them to try out the tools and taste-test any recipes you prepare. Be friendly and approachable, and ask open-ended questions to start conversations. Consider offering a small giveaway or raffle to attract more visitors and collect contact information for follow-ups.

What promotional materials should I bring to the fair?

Bring a variety of promotional materials, including business cards, brochures, and flyers that highlight your best-selling products and upcoming events. Consider creating a special fair-exclusive offer or discount to entice attendees. Additionally, have a sign-up sheet for your newsletter or a mailing list to keep potential customers informed about future promotions.

How can I follow up with leads after the fair?

After the fair, promptly follow up with the leads you collected. Send a personalized email thanking them for visiting your booth and reminding them of any special offers discussed. Include links to your website or social media pages, and invite them to reach out with any questions. Consider scheduling a follow-up call or offering a virtual consultation to discuss their needs further.

What should I do if I feel overwhelmed during the event?

If you start to feel overwhelmed, take a moment to breathe and regroup. Prioritize engaging with one visitor at a time rather than trying to manage multiple conversations. Have a plan in place for busy times, such as enlisting a friend or fellow consultant to help. Remember to stay positive and enjoy the experience—your enthusiasm will resonate with potential customers.
