[Chef Tasha]

Thanks!Thank you!

I didn't want to look into the "future", but couldn't help myself! Hopefully, I won't be tempted to talk about them at shows b/c I really need to keep focused on Nov. & Dec. I will definitely be taking advantage of the cookware for myself!

Also, I heard on one of my CD's that if you book further than 2 months out, you risk more cancellations.

Another thing that I just thought of....December is an important month for earning the Spring/Summer products for free, isn't it? I'm nervous about that b/c I feel pressured to get as many shows as possible in before the 14th due to Christmas.

Can someone PLEASE tell me where you are finding all this good stuff? I went to the PC Website and I can't find ANYTHING.

pull up the december specials for the host and guest and change the 05dec to 06jan or however they have it. You can do the same thing for February. You also can look up Novembers KCN online by changing the month on the Octobers KCN.

Share NOW!!I share the specials for all months I know about and here's why/how:

By telling them what's coming up I can urge them to book for the earlier month and be able to get the specials for ALL of the months by having friends book for the other months.

I am urging close in bookings by pointing out that everyone needs to get gifts and it's the time of year that people want cooking and baking products for all the extra cooking that the holidays bring. I also urge them to book soon because it is proven that hosts who are excited about their show have the best shows and hosts that book close in keep the excitement that made them book in the first place - and they want to get as much free and at a discount as they can. I remind them that they can shop for gifts too whith their discount.

If you want the show to be November but she loves the January host special then just tell her that we can do her show now and she can get some Simple Additions on special to use over the holidays and then when her friends book in January and February she can get those specials too.

All that being said, I find that most people book the date they want and the bonus is just that, a bonus.


I am also using the Sell-a-Thon as a recruiting tool! I'm telling potential consultants that they can get some or all of the new Spring products for free and bonus points for next year's trip to ??????? on top of the regular SS bonuses. It's powerful!

Yes you are very right! Go back to the beginning of the thread, some has posted what new spring/summer items you can earn with your December sales!

My director said at our last cluster meeting that now is the time to start pushing Jan. If you don't start getting people to think about that now, in just a few weeks they will be so bogged down in holiday prep, that they will tell you to wait until after the holidays. When you do call them, you will probably need at least 3 weeks to send out invites, etc, so your first shows won't be until Feb. So January will not be good and things will just SLOW DOWN!

Her suggestion instead, which I am doing, is to suggest that Jan will be an awesome time to book a show. The inlaws are gone, the decorations are put away, its cold and dark out - invite the girlfriends over for a glass of wine and some great food. Oh, and BTW, you can get an extra 50% in free products!

Paint a word picture to entice them and you will keep your business going into the new year.

Yes, my director also suggested having January booked before Thanksgiving. My November is full, Dec and Jan have one booking each, and I have one "maybe" for Feb, so I'm hoping to get them all filled up as the month goes on!

Jan Booking BenefitHow will the booking benefit work for past hosts whose guests book in January?

 

[DebbieJ]

The Booking Benefit for January is either the new Sweetheart kitchen towels or the dessert plates for 60% off. Not very exciting.

 

[ChefLoriG]

guess it depends on the host. I have a host who will have 2 shows that booked from hers in Jan, she is excited she will be able to get 2 sets of the plates.

 

[whitetiger]

about KCNwhen I go to the web site I cant change the month to see what new
Help please explain how you do it

Finally had timeto work on a flyer for my November hosts. Since they all have the host packet already I will just mail this flyer to them. I have already shared this special with them so it will not come as new news (unless they weren't listening to me).

Here is the special I was talking about...each November host is encouraged to receive 3 bookings; one in Dec, one in Jan and one in Feb. When their friends hold the party that makes them eligible to receive the Feb host special for FREE. It's the cookware so you'll have to DIG DEEP for this one. But there will have been 3 shows from their's so it's not so bad!

I'm sure someone can think of something to enchance the flyer and all comments are appreciated. Thank you!!

Okay...this site is experiencing technical difficulties with the file attachment area so I'll try adding it to my post later.

Chef Kearns,
Were you ever able to post that attachment? I just came on here to post on this thread because I'm desparately searching for a flyer that highlights Jan and Feb host specials. Most of you out there are much more computer-savvy than me and can do flyers beautifully, so I thought I'd see if anyone has one like this they'd be willing to post.

I put flyers like this in the clear pocket side of my homemade lap boards (made of 3-ring binders...an awesome idea I got off this site) and I was hoping to find a flyer here. If I started from scratch and did one, it probably wouldn't be too pretty. If anyone has something like a flyer that promotes the Jan and Feb specials, I'd love to borrow it. Thanks SOOOO much!!!

 

[DebbieJ]

Try this one BeckyI got it somewhere, maybe here. Who knows.

 

[pamperedbecky]

Thanks Deb, that's perfect! Now that I see it, I do remember seeing it on here, but I had no idea where I saw it. Thank you!!!!!

Just remember you can close some of your later November shows on Dec. 1st and have them count towards your December totals (but still be November shows). Also call in all those favors and friends you haven't asked, people who have said "maybe" and encourage catalog shows! It's easy this time of year and the hostess benefit is AWESOME! Don't beg & plead - treat it like you really want them to take advantage of the holiday sales boost. If that doesn't work, you can plead and beg with some friends. *wink* - Just tell them you get free Spring/new items based on your sales and could they help you out.

 

[Chef Kearns]

Trying againI went back to try to post it and it didn't work. So, I'll try again.

Sorry ladies, it still won't take it. If you really are interested just send me an email and I will try to attach it for you.
