Record-Breaking Show: $1,615.89 in Sales and $465 in Free Product!

[cincychef]

My Highest show last night closed out at $1,615.89!!!!! She got $465 in free product! Just had to tell someone who would get as excited as me.

 

[pamperedlinda]

Woo Hoo! I know both of you are excited!

 

[ChefBeckyD]

WOW! Was she just freakin' trying to decide on all of her free product? What a great deal for both of you!

I had a host who had a $1000 show this month, and she felt guilty for getting so much for free! She ended up using part of her free, discounted, and 50% items for gifts for family and friends. It was funny watching her figure out how to spend all that FPV!

 

[Oklabell]

WOW It would take my weeks to pick stuff out. That is a good story. Did she do anything different with her show?

 

[nikki70563]

congrats way to go

 

[pamperedbecky]

Holy mackerel!!! That's awesome. I think that is one of the best things about this job-when people just rake in the free stuff! Congrats on an awesome show!

 

[christinaspc]

WOW !!!! Congrats on your show you must be doing things right It is great to have high shows and feel the warm feeling inside for you and your host Congrats again.

 

[cincychef]

She did have trouble using her free product up, I think some of it was gifts for family. She also gave her 4 half price items to her mom and sisters. She didn't need to spend any money at all to get what she wanted. I told her her Free product alone was more than alot of entire shows.

How exciting!! Great job!

 

[chefmeg]

that is soooo cool!

My host who's show I closed last night, had a show total of just over $600....she had 12 ordering guests.....she got $204.40 in products for a grand total of....get this....$6.30!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am SO printing out the recipt for her order and showing it to those people that always say "I just don't know why you would want to have a show....I don't mind paying full price"!!!!!!!

 

[pampchefsarah]

Awesome, cincychef!!! Praise God! Did you submit the show last night, so it counts as a July show.

I don't think I'd have any problem, personally, using up my FPV, but it would take me some time to decide!!

This is so inspiring! Thanks for sharing.

I had my highest show and my lowest show ever and both of them closed last night. 1 girl worked followed my host coaching and she had 1100.00 in sales, and 1 girl just ignored me and dragged her show closing out and she had $152.30 in sales..... I think I will print out both of those recipets and black out the names and use them to show what a difference a some effort on the hostess's part makes...................

What do you do for host coaching? Do you just follow the example from the company, or do you have your own take on it? Do you give a letter or checklist, or incentives?

Did you do anything different than you usually do to have this success? That's so amazing! Rub off some of that luck on us please!

 

[Kitchen2u]

Can we get a WAHOO!?!?!?!

 

[Jenni]

You super seller..... I have ?s how many came to the party? How much of it was outside orders?
BRAVO

 

[cincychef]

I didn't do a great job host coaching at all. I was at conference and then she was out of town the next week. She used to be a consultant 10 years ago, but that doesn't always mean a good show, some of my worst shows were past consultants. She said 16 people would come and had 20 or 21. (my other shows this month who said 15 or more had 3-5) I started mailing my invites a few months back and she had a big guest list 35-40 people and then she sent evites to another group of people. We had 29 orders 8 outside. One thing was she was really excited, she didn't stop when she hit $1300, she started calling people and telling them what a great show she had and collected four MORE orders that way! I got SEVEN bookings. I really didn't do a demo, did 30 min chicken which they loved, tried to do an icecream social but no one ate it so I talked about the cookware for 5min and started taking orders. I was only there for3 1/2 hours.

That is amazing! SEVEN bookings is crazy-awesome! way to go! Sounds like you will have a customer for life with all the free stuff you helped her get! and can you ask her whatever she is taking to send it to us so we can give some to our hosts

 

[pampchefrhondab]

Wow that host rocks! You have to keep her in your contact list!

Congratulations!!!

I would suggest using the Thank You letter from P3. That way you can remove the name, and it will show exactly what she earned and how much she paid - PLUS, how much commission she would have received if she had been a consultant!!!

And, if you were feeling REALLY generous, you could send a copy to me to use (since my biggest show, as you can see <<<<< has only been $345).

 

[Intrepid_Chef]

WOW! That is INCREDIBLE!

My $1200 host "only" got $265 in free ... but that doesn't count her half price items!

 

[scottcooks]

Wa-HOO! Way to go, DiCanCook!!

 

[Intrepid_Chef]

Thanks ... but don't congratulate me, congratulate her ... mine was almost 6 months ago and no show has come close to getting that much ever since!
