Director July/August Open House Table Setup: SS Bowls, Mandoline, Cookware, and More!

[chefkathy]

I'm drawing blanks on how to set up.

I want July/August bookings, so I'm thinking SS bowls, Mandoline, Cookware.

I'm bringing Oil Dipping Seasonings and Pineapple Rum Sauce over cream cheese for sampling.

anything else?

It's a neighborhood/HOA ladies shopping night and they have 30+ RSVPs with about 6 vendors. Should be good!

Give me your ideas!

If you have enough space, you could set up a cooking demonstration station for the ladies to observe. You could also have a few recipes printed out and ingredients pre-measured for them to follow along. You could also provide small samples of dishes prepared using your products so they can get an idea of how they can use your products in their own cooking. Additionally, you could have some interactive activities such as a trivia game or a raffle. These activities can help get the ladies engaged and more interested in your products.
