I came home from work this afternoon and found two HUGE Pampered Chef boxes in my living room! ooh my!!! What lovely new toys to play with! I love the stoneware pieces I got and I can't wait to start cooking with them! I have a pile of recipes to sort through now and get them ready with my name and information!!! I will spend the weekend getting all my paperwork together and getting more organized. I have my first show booked for next Saturday night. My best is going to be my first guinea pig!! hee hee! I will drop by her house probably on Sunday with her host kit. We might go over some recipes now too. My boyfriend in Ottawa plans to take some catalogs from me and will do a catalog show in Ontario for me! What a sweetie!

Welll I just finished putting some things in piles out in the living room and I just noticed the time.. Its 12:40am.. oh my... I need to get some sleep!! I have another busy day ahead of me tomorrow getting all my things organized and ready to go!!!

Wish me luck gals!

Playing with my new kitchen toysSo over the weekend I got all the toys unpacked, unwrapped and washed up.

On Sunday, I really wanted to play with my new 6 muffin stone. I found a great recipe using granola/dried fruit cereal. the muffins were amazing! I loved how golden they baked all over!! I kept them in the stone until I was ready to eat them. I made a dozen muffins. I only have the one muffin stone.. I think I might need to get a second one hee hee!

My first show is this Saturday night. My best friend is hosting the show. I plan to call her tonight to see how her invitations are going and the response she has received so far. I'm thinking where its a Saturday night show I might make it a dessert night! I found this really easy to make peach dessert in the All Best cookbook that came with my kit. It will get me to use my large round stone. I was also thinking I might make up those Puff Profilerates (I think thats the name of them ) for Wednesday night for my Quilting Bee group to try them out on. If they work out I might suggest making those on Saturday night too :)

I managed to get through half of the paperwork last night after supper. Tonight I might try and get some of the recipes set up with my name and contact information at the bottom.. I want to hand out a copy of each recipe I make to the guests. I believe I got little recipe cards for those puff pastries with my kit. Seems I received an Italian Theme brochure with my kit too. I has recipes for appetizers, main meals and desserts. They also come with a pkg of 30 cards each to hand out at parties!! Sounds good to me!
I also got a start on listening to the Getting Started CD.

My boyfriend, in Ottawa, plans to do a catalog show for me. He will give out some catalogs to his sister, friends and co-workers. I plan to send off a little package to him later this week. Perhaps I'll send him a little edible treat from the PC recipes too.. I'll then send it UPS overnight!!! :) Perhaps the pecan tarts. They should keep well! :)

Anyway, its time for me to dash again. I"m checking messages here in between little jobs here at work! LOL you can see my mind is NOT where it should be!! I would rather be playing in my kitchen again!

Cheers:p
 

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know if my first Pampered Chef show was successful?

Your first Pampered Chef show can be considered successful if you met your sales goals, received positive feedback from guests, and generated interest in future shows. Additionally, if you were able to recruit new team members or gather leads for future sales, that's a great indicator of success.

What should I look for in the feedback from my guests?

Pay attention to comments about the products, the recipes demonstrated, and the overall experience. Positive feedback on the food, engagement level, and your presentation skills are all good signs. Constructive criticism can help you improve for future shows.

How can I calculate my sales from the show?

To calculate your sales, add up the total amount of orders placed during the show. Don't forget to include any orders that were placed after the show ended, as many guests may decide to order later. You can also check your Pampered Chef consultant portal for a detailed sales report.

What are the next steps 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. Consider scheduling your next show and reaching out to those who expressed interest in hosting. Additionally, review your performance and set goals for improvement.

How can I improve my performance for future shows?

To improve your performance, gather feedback from your guests, practice your presentation skills, and refine your product knowledge. Consider attending training sessions or workshops offered by Pampered Chef, and observe other successful consultants to learn new techniques.
