So I got to looking at the Stoneware on sale in September. A host has to have more than $550 in sales to get the DCB at 60% OFF ?? And, it's not on the 20% list. Erg! That's not going to help some of my guests and hosts who really want the DCB. I know I could offer the $99 DCB special. Any other suggestions about how to promote this so they'd save on the DCB.

Host coach the hostess to have a really big party (Be sure she knows that the more people there, the less people are uncomfortable and don't feel obligated to spend money- they get what they really want!), and have her use your website to invite people out of town and people she knows that live out of state to order with her show. That has made a big difference for me! Then let everyone know they can get the DCB for 50% off at their own show, or even free! Free is definitely better than 50 or 60% off!
 
Hey Trish,I totally understand your frustration with the Stoneware promotion in September. It can be tough when we want to offer our customers and hosts the best deals possible, but the restrictions make it difficult.One suggestion I have is to focus on the benefits of the $99 DCB special. It may not be the 60% off that some customers and hosts were hoping for, but it's still a great deal compared to the regular price. Highlight the versatility and convenience of the DCB and how it can save them time and effort in the kitchen.Another idea is to offer a bundle deal where customers can purchase the Stoneware at full price, but get a discount on other products they may be interested in. This way, they still get a deal and you can make up for the lack of discount on the Stoneware.Lastly, you could also try reaching out to your customers and hosts individually and offer them a personalized deal or discount as a thank you for their support. This can help build customer loyalty and show them that you value their business.I hope these suggestions help and good luck with your promotions!Best,
 

Frequently Asked Questions

The DCB Special refers to a promotional offer on the Deep Covered Baker (DCB) from Pampered Chef. During the September Stoneware Sale, there may be restrictions on how the DCB can be promoted alongside other stoneware products. It's important to understand these restrictions to effectively market the DCB without violating any guidelines.

Can I still promote the DCB if it's not included in the September Stoneware Sale?

Yes, you can promote the DCB even if it is not part of the September Stoneware Sale. Focus on its unique features, benefits, and versatility in cooking. Highlight recipes that can be made using the DCB to engage your audience and showcase its value.

What strategies can I use to promote the DCB during the sale?

To promote the DCB during the sale, consider creating engaging content such as cooking demonstrations, recipe videos, or social media posts that emphasize its benefits. You can also offer exclusive promotions or bundle deals that include the DCB with other products that are on sale, while ensuring compliance with any promotional restrictions.

Are there any specific guidelines I need to follow when promoting the DCB?
