I want to get some recruiting bags done up again and want to do the bag of popcorn thing. Does anyone have a little poem that goes along with that type of recruting bag? I want to put some kind of little note in there!!

TIA!
 
I placed a Season's Best with a tag "any season is best to start your PC business".

You could say something about eating it while watching the DVD (if you're including it).

I got some gift bags and in them put...
- Come Join Us! brochure
- DVD
- Bag of popcorn
- Can of juice (actually stuff I got that I really don't like...don't tell my potential recruits! :p )

I'm not very poetic, so I was hoping someone had something already. I could put something about "Pop the popcorn and sit down to a great movie about how you can make your dreams come true with PC!"
 
Do you remember what HO included in the letter we received with the interactive DVD - if you have it or remember what it said - you could just change it up a bit but use the same idea.

what about 'sit back and relax and watch a short video on how PC could/will change your life' or 'sit back, relax, and see how PC could/will change your life'
 
I think you need to find 1 more thing to put in the bag. Maybe a notebook with a pen attached.
Oh, and I'd maybe use the new consultant rewards brochure instead of come join us. (CJU doesn't provide any real info & is largely duplicated with the DVD). Then call it your "Take 5 bag"In five minutes, they can 1) pop the popcorn, 2) browse through the flyer, 3) pour their drink, 4) pop in the dvd, 5) write down what they would do with an extra $100/ mo & what they would do with an extra $500/ mo.I've been toying with doing this, too. Wondering about adding some sort of bath thing - bubbles or a ducky. Only b/c I remember studying the new consultant rewards brochure over and over again while in the tub. I had myself recruited days before my show.

I like the pen/notebook idea....Don't think I have new consultant rewards brochure right now, but it's a good idea. Will make that change when I get them.

Here's something that I've used in the past, but am not a bath person, so I wasn't really excited about it:

Recipe For Relaxation:
Tea Bag
Chocolate Kisses
Bubble Bath
Votive Candle

Make Cup of Tea; Fill Bath Tub with water
and add Bubble Bath; Light Votive Candle;
Immerse in Bath while enjoying your cup of tea
and some chocolate. Take 5 minutes to consider
the possibility of owning your own business.


Print on pretty paper, you can fit 4 to a page, and add some clipart, if you like. I cut mine out with fancy scrapbooking scissors (sp?).

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a recruiting bag in the context of direct sales?

A recruiting bag is a tool used by direct sales representatives, like those from Pampered Chef, to share information about the business opportunity with potential recruits. It typically contains marketing materials, product samples, and personal testimonials to help convey the benefits of joining the team.

What should I include in my recruiting bag?

Your recruiting bag should include items such as a welcome letter, brochures about the company and its products, a list of benefits for joining, personal success stories, and any promotional materials that highlight upcoming events or incentives. Including a few product samples can also help showcase what new recruits can sell.

How can I effectively word my recruiting materials?

When wording your recruiting materials, focus on the benefits of joining your team, such as flexibility, income potential, and community support. Use positive and inviting language, and include personal anecdotes that highlight your own success and satisfaction with the business. Make sure to address common concerns and questions potential recruits may have.

What are some catchy phrases I can use in my recruiting bag?

Catchy phrases can include "Join the fun and earn while you learn!" or "Turn your passion for cooking into profit!" You can also use phrases like "Be your own boss and create your own schedule!" to emphasize the flexibility and independence that comes with being a Pampered Chef consultant.

How can I personalize my recruiting bag for different audiences?

To personalize your recruiting bag, consider the interests and backgrounds of your potential recruits. For example, if you're targeting stay-at-home parents, emphasize the flexibility and family-friendly aspects of the business. If you're speaking to career professionals, highlight the income potential and networking opportunities. Tailoring your message will make it more relatable and appealing to each individual.
