Recipes to Give to Potential Hosts or Businesses

[ChefAndiHV]

I am looking to restart my business. I would love ideas on small inexpensive recipes that I could possibly hand out to people I meet or bring to businesses for PAB. I would like to attach my business card and a monthly specials flyer so people know who I am .
Is this a good idea or does anyone else have something to share? I am at a loss for bookings. I have asked my family and FB friends but I am having no luck.

Please Help ...

Hi Andi- did P. Chef for 10 yrs., took 8 years off. Now, I'm back , just became a widow and this business is going to be my lifesaver. My son just told me the other day he noticed that I've been laughing instead of crying . I've been looking thru some of the earlier recipes for Apple Nut Ring, Mushroom Pizza is another good inexpensive one. Also, go thru some of your cookbooks, lots of good recipes in there. Do you know anyone in a local woman's Club that would let you demonstrate some products for a monthly meeting? Check with your local Chamber of Commerce maybe for some local clubs in your area. Don't give up and keep the faith! Alanna

Hello! I'm also a Pampered Chef consultant and I would love to offer some suggestions for small and inexpensive recipes that you can hand out to people you meet or bring to businesses for PAB (Pampered Chef at Business) events. One idea is to create a mini recipe booklet with 3-5 easy and budget-friendly recipes that use Pampered Chef products. You can include your business card and monthly specials flyer in the booklet as well. Another idea is to create small samples of a popular Pampered Chef product and attach your business card and flyer to it. This will give potential customers a taste of what Pampered Chef has to offer and entice them to book a party with you. As for booking parties, have you considered reaching out to local community groups or organizations and offering to do a cooking demonstration for them? This can be a great way to showcase your products and services and potentially book parties with attendees. Don't be afraid to think outside the box and get creative with your marketing and networking efforts. Good luck with restarting your business!

Hi there!

Restarting your business can be both exciting and challenging. I think your idea of handing out small inexpensive recipes with your business card and specials flyer is a great way to introduce yourself to potential clients and businesses. It shows that you are not only a consultant, but also someone who is passionate about cooking and sharing recipes.

In terms of recipe ideas, you could consider creating a simple recipe card with a few ingredients that can be found in almost any kitchen, such as a quick and easy dip or a no-bake dessert. These types of recipes are budget-friendly and can be easily shared with others. You could also try hosting a recipe exchange party with your friends and family, where everyone brings a dish and a copy of the recipe to share. This can be a fun and interactive way to get people interested in your business.

Additionally, have you considered reaching out to local businesses or community organizations to offer cooking demonstrations or workshops? This could be a great way to showcase your skills and get some bookings. You could also offer special promotions or discounts for those who attend and mention your business card or flyer.

Don't be discouraged if you haven't had much luck with bookings so far. It takes time and effort to build a successful business, but with your determination and creativity, I have no doubt you will start seeing more interest in no time. Best of luck to you!
