Okay, just more questions...

I am planning on hosting a "relaunching" of my PC biz, combined with an open house/fall kick off. I plan on having all the food just coming out of the oven, or made before guests arrive. I am thinking of not doing a demo, but to have everyone in a relaxed setting where they can eat, drink and buy!! Absolutely no pressure.

Am looking for ideas on how this would work best. I have joined a neighborhood women's group that has at least 50 women right now, so there is a lot of potential.

Any and all help would be appreciated!!
 
Becky (ChefBeckyD) has a very successful fall kick-off. If you search the threads for posts by her and the words "kick-off" or "fall" you'll probably find the info.

Lisa - this is how I do my Fall Preview.....It is a big job to be the consultant & the hostess at the same time, so I don't do a demo. This year, I had recipes from each theme ready as guests arrived - I did the Avocado Salsa Cups, Mini Pesto Pizzas, BBQ Pork sandwiches, Brownie Truffle Cups, and Double Chocolate Cinnamon Dip, and Cran/Rasp. Fizz.
I had a table set up with all of the new products (if you don't have them, borrow from director & cluster mates!) and I did a 10 minute presentation about the new products and Host Specials! Then, I let them just play with the new products, and eat and chat and shop. I booked 6 Shows (3 Sept, 2 Oct, and 1 Nov) Bookings are definitely my goal! The sales are nice, but my main goal is to book for the Fall Selling Season
