A host gave me this idea and I am trying to figure out if it is a good one or not. I am interested in your opinions good or bad I want them all. Here is the idea...
Host a Pampered Chef Swap Meet. You know how customers (and consultants) have PC items that we do not use. Items purchased to help out a host or purchased and then did not like etc. This show would be at a set time at the consultant's home or other general place. Customers would bring their new and used unwanted Pampered Chef items to sell or trade. Customers could also come just to find a good deal. I was thinking of setting it up in February, showing the new products in hopes of getting some bookings, selling some discontinuing products etc. Probably not a big sales show, but good for customer care.
+ Have a guest list with phone numbers so I could follow up with everyone and do a MAC call - in case I did not get to chat with everyone about a show or the opportunity.
+ Offer some sort of booking incentive - any ideas on what to offer???
+ Offer a small snack (PC recipe of course).
+ I do not want to spend a lot of money on this by sending hundreds of invites, so most would be by email (probably 200 on my email list)
+ Do I call everyone for an RSVP?
Is this too negative or do you think it is a good idea? Any other thoughts or things you would add or do?
Please help, I can't decide.. THANKS!!
