Okay, so as some of you have probably read in previous posts, I have had to email each person in my email contact list to make sure my newsletters where coming through. I have gotten several that just say "Yeah they are coming through", but this one I know I want to reply back to this one, but don't know what to say. This is how she replied my email
"Yes, I am getting them.. I'm really broke right now...but I'm getting them..."
What would you say to let her know it is okay to be broke (don't I know it:D ), but maybe persuade her into a possible show.
 
You could offer to supply the products for the show then she wouldn't be spending anything for that.... tell her to get lots of orders and people to come to her show and she would earn lots of free product.
 
I'd send her an email saying that you're glad she's getting them. BTW, you're sorry she's broke. If she wants to know how to make a bit of extra $$, you can help her out. ;) ;)
 
I would talk to her about becoming a consultant and earning some extra money. What do you have to lose??? Go for it!! :rolleyes:
 
Ditto the above! Tell her you got from the tone of the e-mail that she loves PC but can't buy any...ask if you can show her how to earn it for free and a little cash on the side?
 
Book a show!!

This is a great chance to get her to book a show. If you are desperate as I am to book shows for September, I would offer to do a FREE kitchen show for her and kind of reply like this:
Hello XXXXX,
I know all about being broke, that is why I am actually selling pampered Chef products, not only do I get free products all year round with consultant incentives but I get a paycheck too. By the way, the best way to get FREE products is to host your very own show. I would like to offer you a FREE cooking show. That means you have nothing to lose, all you have to do is invite friends, family, co-workers, neighbors, and anyone else you think might enjoy a sampling of some yummy recipes and helpful tips to come check out my demo at your home. I have these dates available XXXXX so please let me know when you would like to have your show. Have a great day!
Then just make a cheap recipe and dessert for her guests. You never know, she might be broke, but hopefully her friends and family are not!!!
Debbie :D
