I recently moved and need some help with ideas on how to "restart" my business. I don't know anyone in the area that I moved to so it has been very hard. Thanks in advance for your help.
 
Get the Relocating Your Business cd on the paperwork supply. It's got LOTS of great ideas!
 
Nicole,
Wear your PC clothing when you go places. Also check to see if there are any local booths in your area. When I moved I did the taste of home cooking school and it totally helped me out in my business.
Good luck

Hi there! I completely understand how difficult it can be to restart your business in a new area where you don't know anyone. But don't worry, there are plenty of ways to get your business up and running again.First, I would suggest reaching out to your new neighbors and introducing yourself as a Pampered Chef consultant. You can offer them a special discount or host a small cooking party at your home to showcase some of our amazing products. This is a great way to network and potentially gain new customers.You can also use social media to your advantage. Join local Facebook groups or create a page for your business. This will help you connect with potential customers in your area and share any special promotions or events you have coming up.Another idea is to partner with local businesses or organizations. Offer to do a cooking demonstration at a local farmers market or collaborate with a nearby health and wellness store to promote healthy cooking with our products.Lastly, don't forget about your existing customers. Reach out to them and let them know about your move and any specials or events you have planned. They can also help spread the word about your business to their friends and family in the area.I hope these suggestions help you get your business back on track in your new location. Don't be afraid to put yourself out there and get creative with your marketing strategies. Best of luck!
