Anyone have anything really different and fun planned for their back to business meetings? I am holding mine tomorrow as my schedule to did not permit me to hold it on the 5th...just wondering if anyone had anything "fun" to add to my meeting
 
If anyone shares what they are doing, then it kind of gives away the theme and a spoiler on where the trips are this year. ;)
 
What we have done before is everyone come dressed or bring something of what destination you think is our next dream trips. We always have fun with that one. Everyone comes really dressed crazy. but we have a crazy group.
 
We're having a Recipe Night 45 minutes prior to the B2B and having all the potential new consultants stay to experience the fun and excitement of the
B2B, set their own goals, and see how fun it'd be to be a part of such a great company.
 
I am having my meetings now with Frieale talking more about bookings and Selling and having a GREAT business .
yes we will talk about the Trips and watch the DVD but most people start there PC business for more than just the trips . So if there business is good than the Trips will be even more exciting .
 
We're having a training for new consultants/recruit opportunity prior to our mtg. and a baked potato bar for those who want to be there in time to eat.
 
We are having those who have been on a trip wear our tshirts and then at our winter retreat next week we will have the consultants dress for whichever trip they'd like to earn. We came up with these ideas before finding out what the trips were ;)
I also make a group trip tracker and made a quick stop to JoAnns for coordinating stickers after getting the info - now I just have to keep everything covered until the big announcement.
 
I am having them bring a recipe from where they think the trip will be to Wahoo!!! Lots to do that night whew I'm tried and the party isn't even started LOL. A little nervous this is my first BCB meeting that I have done. I keep telling myself no pressure.
 
It's all about the fun Dina! You can do it!!! :D
 
Thanks Sheila I knew you would pick me up by the boot straps and tell me to get my big girl ****** on LOL will do I am excited about it.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are some fun icebreaker activities for a back to business meeting?

Icebreaker activities can help set a positive tone for your meeting. Consider starting with a quick round of "Two Truths and a Lie," where participants share two true statements and one false one about themselves. Alternatively, you could have a "Show and Tell" segment where team members bring a favorite kitchen gadget or spice and share why they love it.

How can I incorporate Pampered Chef products into the meeting?

Incorporating Pampered Chef products can make your meeting more engaging. You could host a mini cooking demonstration using popular products, or have a tasting session featuring recipes that utilize Pampered Chef tools. Additionally, consider giving away small Pampered Chef items as prizes for participation in activities.

What themes can I use to spice up my back to business meeting?

Themes can add excitement to your meeting. Consider a "Culinary Adventure" theme where each segment focuses on a different cuisine, or a "Spice It Up" theme where you explore various spices and their uses. You could also have a "Recipe Swap" theme, encouraging attendees to share their favorite recipes and the Pampered Chef tools they use.

How can I encourage participation during the meeting?

Encouraging participation can be achieved through interactive activities. Use polls or quizzes related to Pampered Chef products and cooking tips. You can also create breakout sessions where smaller groups discuss specific topics and then share their insights with the larger group. Recognizing contributions with small rewards can also boost engagement.

What are some unique ideas for follow-up after the meeting?

After the meeting, consider sending out a fun recap email that includes highlights, photos, and any recipes shared. You could also create a shared document where participants can add their favorite tips or recipes. Additionally, hosting a virtual cooking class or a follow-up Q&A session can keep the momentum going and maintain engagement with Pampered Chef products.
