I realized that I never had a good "recruting packet", or resources to hand out at my show. Here is what I came up with... but... being new to this, I was wondering if you guys had any other ideas, or input - thanks!

Recruiting Packet:
Catalog
New Consultant Reward Brochure
Come Join Us
Agreement
“PC isn’t for everyone…” flyer
Apron Options flyer
New Consultant Recipes
Kit Coupon
 
Seems like overkill to me. Keep it simple and duplicatible. My recruit leads at shows take home their catalog and a Come Join Us with a phone appointment time written on the front. That's it. The rest can come later.
 
Deb, I am with you- I put a label on the front that says, I look forward to talking with you. Our appointment is________________ .

I find this so much better than the packet I used before. I realized before, when I gave them more info, I was still throwing up on them, just not with words !!!!

I am going to go over this tonight in my 3rd class of step up. Great point! I am trying to get through to everyone (including myself) that attending these classes, doing on line training, etc. is all very good, but having conversations and getting past the jitters is going to grow their teams!

I made up a stupid little thing I am going to give them.
Forget
About
You

Consentrate
On
Them

Fake it or FAY COT!!
 


Hello there! First of all, congratulations on taking the initiative to create a recruiting packet for your shows. It's a great way to attract potential new consultants and share all the amazing benefits of being a part of the Pampered Chef family. I think your list of items for the packet is a great start. One additional idea could be to include a list of frequently asked questions about becoming a consultant. This could help address any concerns or hesitations that potential recruits may have. Another idea could be to include a testimonial or success story from a current consultant. This personal touch can be very impactful and inspiring for those considering joining the Pampered Chef team. Lastly, consider including a small gift or token of appreciation for those who sign up to become a consultant at your show. This could be something as simple as a Pampered Chef kitchen tool or a discount on their first order. It's a small gesture, but it can go a long way in showing your appreciation and making them feel welcomed into the team.I hope these ideas are helpful and wish you all the best in your recruiting efforts! Happy cooking and recruiting!
