I have been selling Pampered Chef now for about 6 months. I have already went through everyone I know to book parties and now I have no one left. Any ideas to get new customers?
 
Go to your mall, while doing your shopping, and ask the cashiers "Are you allowed to have magazines in your break room?" and the go to it from there.
 
Make sure you mention it in your holiday letter to everyone on your card list.
 
Call all of your past customers, check in with them about their products and ask if they are enjoying them. Let them know you can take orders for holiday gifts anytime before 12/15 to get them in time for Christmas (before the shipping rates increase for expedited shipping). Offer to send them the mini holiday catalogs that are on the supply order because they have great gift-giving and entertaining ideas. Or direct them to your website to look at it if you have one. AND ask them if they'd like to host their own Express Show before the holidays or a fun, relaxing show after the stress of the holidays is over. Customer Care Calls can go a LONG way and if nothing else, they keep your name in their mind because you've cared enough to follow up with them and their products. Good luck!:)
 
I like the bag you can get from Merril that has a pocket for the catalog on the front and has the PC logo embroidered on in it, just carry it around with you, and it can speak for you too!

That bag is on supply order, not from Merrill.

The bag is on the supply order form? Is there somewhere that I can view these products before I buy? I also seen that they have Show Door Prizes and Show Accessories (there is no price listed and I would also like to know what exactly comes in these packages). Anyone know where I can get this information from?
 
There are no pics. In the door prize category: these are just products packaged in multiples. Same as pictured in the catalog.Most of the show accessories are also just catalog items, with the exception of the food handling gloves (latex gloves) and product bags, which are the same bags that HO packs in show shipments.The Consultant Accessories area on the form is where the totes and things are. The Consultant Tote is the one that comes with the kit. The Catalog Shoulder Tote Bag is the one with a clear pocket on the front for a catalog.
