I have been getting that comment alot whenever I approach people about Pampered Chef. It makes getting bookings pretty difficult. So I was thinking about it and came up with this flyer as a response to "I don't cook". I haven't used it yet but will be printing out a bunch to have at my Open House on Sunday. **The margins and images such seem a bit off in the working version of the file but they print up just fine.

That flyer is great! I hear the same thing from at least one person at each of my shows. When I hear that, I try to show some things that even the "no cook" person can use in their kitchen.
 
I'd have to say 'you may not cook but you do eat'... there's tools even if they get take out only... pizza cutters cuz the pizzeria never seems to make it through the crust all the way. Servers, SA, quick mix pitcher... your flyer gives a lot of great ideas too! I think some folks have it in their head that not cooking doesn't involve kitchen tools... but even just opening a can of soup will most likely require a can opener and I have to admit... I LOVE ours! I'll never go back to those other types again...
 
I love this! I will have to borrow it.
 
Great flyer - but the format got wonky on my compauter - it has to ladied heads upside down over teh heading words...how do I fix that?
 
LOVE this flyer-gonna have to "borrow" it!;)
 
This is a great flyer! Just a note though, the can strainer doesn't work with most tuna cans, it's too small for them.

Thanks for that info.

I had an issue with the caricature also...my computer is ancient and loves to mess with me. :rolleyes: You can just take her out and try your own little image. I actually got her from VistaPrint. She's from the build your caricature section. They have lots of really cute options.
 
Great! This is helpful for the 'open can, put in pan, heat, eat!" folks. I tell them they NEED a stone for pizza, seagoing sausages (fish sticks) etc.

Unless you flip the can strainer upside down and then it works perfectly with starkist tuna cans! :thumbup: My husband uses it all the time, he loves canned tuna.
 
Flipping the strainer upside down works for canned chicken as well as pineapple to squish out all of the extra juices!!
 
I love clipartIt's a great flyer!! I love clipart so I just added a few pics to add some humor!! And to give a visual of our great products!!!

I love tuna too.

And I sell so many of those SA mugs to people who love to eat micro soups, or stews but hate to eat out of those little cans!! It's funny, maybe the mug makes it feel homemade!!

Debbie :D

That flyer is a great idea! Thank you!

I took out the cooking eggs parts for people that don't make breakfast, and the stuff about making lunch for kids.
(edit - A lot of my customers are office workers)

I just checked out the two edited versions and I love them both! The graphics give an extra punch & the change in product choices fills yet another niche. I'll be snagging these to keep on hand for the office types. Thanks!
 
I've just told people that they'd probably cook more often if it was easier for them. I really feel that if cooking was more fun and easy, more people would do it, and save money so basically, the products pay for themselves!
