Poll (I Guess): What's Your Average Show?

[redsoxgirl]

I'm curious to see if it differs in different regions of the country.

What is your average show and what pat of the country do you live in?

 

[heather223]

Mine is between $350-$400. I am in the Cleveland, OH area. :chef:

 

[redsoxgirl]

Mine is a little over $600 and I'm in New England - about an hour West of Boston

Mine has gone down over the last couple years. I live in Michigan, and people just aren't spending as much. It used to be around $600, but now my average is $475.

The good news is that bookings have never been better!:thumbup:

 

[PamperedDor]

Mine is around $700 - I live on Long Island -

I think Host coaching really pays off - I encourage my hosts to have outside orders - use my pws - (to get orders from around the country as well as NY) and over invite -

 

[pamperedlinda]

My career average is $636.

2006 was $556
2007 was great $740
2008 has gone down a bit to $590

Catalog shows: about $200 average...this is because I have a host that does repeated $150-$200 catalog shows for host specials - doesn't want to aim for more but it is repeat business.Cooking shows: about $450Note: Mine are com. sales - guest sales would have brought the average up, especially in February! I had some hosts pick big items at 60% off.Oh, and I'm in hick country in northern WI with a VERY active neighboring cluster of about 19 all in the small town of 8,000-10,000. So, I'm very pleased with my totals with them here too. It proves that small towns and number of consultants nearby doesn't really have as much to do with sales as you think!

Greater Toronto Area

07 average was $650

I've had 2 shows this year over $800. (keep in mind that the Canadian prices are higher- easier for us to get larger numbers!)

 

[Intrepid_Chef]

Mine is artificially high because I just turned in a big show.

Now it's $386.37

Before that show it was $100 lower.

My catalog shows were 300 to 400 each.

 

[KellyTheChef]

Catty shows are $300 or so

Live shows are $600-700

I live in NE Ohio. My average show has gone WAY up since my first year (about $300 then) because of host coaching, mailing out invites myself, and Post Calls.
