Yes, they are door prize type gifts.
 
Thanks I'll let you know how I make out!
 
Finally submitted my show from 9/6--commissionable sales are $1904!!! This was a HO lead for a fundraiser. Even with the reduced commission rate, I'm making like $300 on this show. WOOHOO--I needed the boost!I'm looking at $3500 submitted with 5 cooking shows to go and several catalog shows. Plus I have at least one recruit signing at the end of the month. Yay! Things are looking up!!!!
 
Wow Deb! Great job! Congratulations on the HOT month!
 
Great news to read Deb!
 
Great job Deb! Here is my update too. We are at the half way point, I have about $2000 so far (the hard way, 6 shows!). I just scheduled another show for next weekend, so I have 2 cooking and 1 catty to go. Plus I think my team might come up with a little bit... Hopefully about $1000. And as I learned the year I got TPC, I haven't forgotten about next month, so I have some shows for Oct too.
 
my show last night generated 3 bookings but I don't think it was from the "pick or pass" game~one booking was for a catalog show for this month because she wants the cookware; one is for November because she wants the DCB @ 60% off; the other didn't set a firm date because she needed to check her calendar. I do have one recruit lead that I will be talking to tonight! Sales were blah, but my host is a former consultant and has a wish list a mile long...she is determined to get sales to $600!
 
Congrats on the bookings. Some have their mind made up before hand that they want to book and some want the specials. But for those that are sitting on the fence, I think the game works well.
I had used it at my show last night and got 3 bookings.
The funny part of last nights show is, I had put products in my grill basket. These were the products for the recipe. I was going to pass it around and have everyone take one. That would be the one they use to help out. Well, right before it the host says I hope you aren't going to make them help. My face dropped( we talked about it already). A few ladies said we were at one a few weeks ago and she worked us and we had no choice. So in my head I'm thinking these ladies aren't going to help me. So I slowly take the products out of the basket. It was the PB torte, so really there wasn't a lot to do.
At the end of the show the girls told me about the last show. The consultant did 3 recipes and made everyone go to stations to make them. So I thought it was a power cooking. NOPE!! She really did 3 recipes. Oh well all in the end it was a good show still for me and they were happy and it was a $650 show.
 
what are some people thinking when they demo 3 recipes??? I did just the Chicken Fajitas at my show last night and that was plenty! I just cannot imagine the time 3 recipes would take.
 
I agree. All that does is turn people off having to go through 3 demo's.
I like one easy recipe.
 
Woohoo!!! Last Friday's host is using kit credit!!!!!! :):):):):)

That will be two for me this month...although this gal might not sign until Oct 1st when her husband gets paid. I'm dropping off the Quick Start box to the other recruit tomorrow. :)
