Can we order this on supply order yet? I made my own, but it's not that "flashy". (I typed the info on paper, put the paper in page protectors, then taped the page protectors together with clear packing tape).

Hopefully it will be a while before it can be ordered on the Supply Order! Those of us who earned it would be a little miffed if after working hard to get in those two shows, someone could order it at $20 or less! Sorry...that is the way I feel!

The times I have used it, it always gets a big "WOW"! I also used the "Recruiting Side" at a booth a couple of weeks ago. I am talking to the lady about signing and she was very impressed with all the great wording on it that she would "receive" as a Consultant!

Not to mention the time it took me to make one up!
 
I made my own booking slide, since I didn't earn one, and it turned out about as nice. I used it at my last show for the first time and everyone literally went "ohhh" when I made it "fall" down to show all the benefits! It grabbed everyone's attention and I got 2 bookings and 2 possible shows.
 
It's in the Newswire we just got! It is available for $15 on the Supply Order!

Glad I'm not the only one. I hate when they say limited supply. I get panicked.
 
Me too!!! I was ready to hit submit before I finished reading the email! LOL!
 
I like that. Now if I'd just get some BOOKINGS! LOL!
 
Hi Everyone,
I am pretty new to PC and I am still trying new ideas and would love it if someone could explain what a Slide is to me?

Thanks so much!
 
Thanks Noora! That is great! It looks like it would be a really good visual for the guests.
Although, I tried to find it on the consultants corner, and because I am in Canada I don't think I have access to that information.
Can anyone help???
=-)

I couldn't find it on CC either but did find it in Pampered Partner. I'm about to place a supply order and there's one on there - Booking and Recruiting Slide JR46 $18.00

Hope that helps :)
 
Thanks Jodi, That really does!!!
=-)
 
I just found out it works great! I had a party on January 6th and I had never used mine before so... l decided to use it with this group. Now this is group of ladies that normally never has bookings but I got three out of 8 people who were there to book. ranted one is March and two are May and June but hey, they even gave me dates for those! I have another party on the 2nd so I will use it! And yes, I earned mine but hey, it works!
 
Like many of you I also give away a SB cookbook to the host of the show. However, I pass it around and ask the guests to write a nice note to the host. This way whenever she picks it up to cook in the future she can read the messages left by her friends. They really appreciate it.
 
Can we still order the booking slide on the supply order?
 

Frequently Asked Questions

What does "4 Shows & 1 Catalog" mean in the context of Pampered Chef?

"4 Shows & 1 Catalog" refers to a strategy where a consultant aims to book four cooking shows and distribute one catalog during a specific time frame. This approach helps maximize sales opportunities and customer engagement, leveraging both live events and product catalogs to reach a wider audience.

How can I effectively book four shows in a month?

To effectively book four shows in a month, start by reaching out to your existing customer base and personal network. Use social media to promote your shows, offer incentives for hosting, and consider partnering with other consultants for joint events. Additionally, follow up with past hosts and attendees to rekindle interest.

What are the benefits of hosting a catalog show alongside cooking shows?

Hosting a catalog show allows customers who may not be able to attend a live cooking show to still participate in the sales process. It expands your reach, caters to different customer preferences, and can generate additional sales through catalog orders. This dual approach can significantly boost your overall sales and bookings.

What types of incentives can I offer to encourage bookings?

Incentives can include discounts on future purchases, free products, or exclusive offers for hosts. You can also create a tiered rewards system where hosts earn more based on the sales generated during their show. Personalizing the incentives to match your audience's interests can also enhance their effectiveness.

How do I follow up with potential hosts after my initial contact?

Following up with potential hosts is crucial for securing bookings. Send a friendly reminder message or email thanking them for their interest and providing additional information about hosting. You can also share success stories from previous hosts and highlight the benefits they received. Be sure to ask if they have any questions or concerns that you can address.
