I had just sent out the following e-mail:
The August contest has ended, and the winners have been notified. I'd like to thank everyone who participated; your continued support in helping to grow my business is highly valued.
On to the next contest! You'll be receiving the September Newsletter, which features the beautiful new products for the Fall/Winter '08 season, in a separate e-mail. I need to increase my mailing list, so I'm offering you the chance to win one of the new products!!!
It's probably the easiest contest you'll ever enter, and NO PURCHASE NECESSARY (though, it would, of course, be greatly appreciated). All you have to do is forward this e-mail to anyone and everyone you think might be interested in hearing about The Pampered Chef (and, even to those you don't think will be interested, because you never know!). If they're not interested, they can always opt out. The contest is so easy, you don't even have to inform me that you forwarded the e-mail!
Here's how the point system will work:
Each e-mail forwarded = 1 point
Each forwarded e-mail which results in someone joining the mailing list = 2 points
Each e-mail which results in an order being placed = 10 points (whether it is your personal order, or from the forwarded e-mail)
Each e-mail resulting in a Show being booked (Cooking, Catalog, Fundraiser, or Bridal Shower) = 20 points, plus 20% off one item purchased during that show (outside order is acceptable).
Each e-mail resulting in a new recruit = 0 points, you just get a free gift!!!!
Forwarded e-mails which get forwarded again, result in the above point schedule for the secondary forwarder, and the same points are added to the total for the original forwarder!
Everyone reaching 100 points or more receives a free gift from the new product line.
Deadline = 5:00pm ET on Wednesday, 9/3/08. So hit that Forward button, and fill in that To: field NOW!
Fine Print: The value of the gifts will be at my discretion, and based on the total number of winning entrants. Though purchase is absolutely not necessary, any orders received will increase the availability of gifts selected.
When, almost immediately I received this response (which, by the way, is from someone to whom the above was forwarded!):
Hi Sarah!
I sold Pampered Chef about 3 years ago. I wanted to re up but my leader doesn't sell anymore.
Can you send me a catalog and if so, I'll re up under you.
xo
Now, I know not to get excited until it's a done deal, but I was yelling at God earlier for the horrible day I had (work related), and that I just don't know anymore if He wants me to be doing PC, after all, or what He has planned for me! Then He hits me with this! :angel:
And, yes, I did tell her if she signs up no later than 8/31, she's eligible for the 50% reimbursement!
Ok, now I have to forward the e-mail to my Director, and then it's nighty-night for me!! (Guess I'll be having sweet dreams tonight!!)
