Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between active and inactive customers in Pampered Chef?
Active customers are those who have made a purchase within the last 12 months, while inactive customers are those who have not made a purchase during that time frame. This distinction helps consultants target their marketing efforts effectively.
Can I order samples for inactive customers?
Yes, you can order samples for inactive customers, but it is generally more effective to focus on active customers who are more likely to make a purchase. However, re-engaging inactive customers with samples can be a good strategy to rekindle their interest.
How can I encourage inactive customers to become active again?
To encourage inactive customers to return, consider sending them personalized messages, offering special promotions, or providing samples of new products. Highlighting the benefits and value of the products can also help reignite their interest.
Are there any restrictions on the number of samples I can order for active versus inactive customers?
There are typically no specific restrictions on the number of samples you can order for either active or inactive customers. However, it’s important to manage your budget and ensure that your sample orders align with your overall sales strategy.
How do I track the status of my customers (active vs inactive)?
You can track the status of your customers through your Pampered Chef consultant portal. This platform provides tools to manage customer information, including purchase history, which helps you identify whether they are active or inactive.
