I have someone who is just getting a few orders together at her work and so far she only has $70.00. Can I turn this in for a show or does it have to be a certain $$ amount? Also like Feb special if you spend so much money you get something free, but for March is it you are getting the items at a discount and that is it? It this typical with them. They have some months with free stuff and some with discount?
 
For your first question: Commissionable sales (before thx and shipping) have to be $150 to submit as a show. If the orders total less than that they they have to be submitted as an individual order and the host would get no benefits.

For your second question: Pampered Chef does a lot of research on what specials are best to offer at any given time. We never know what they will be and there is never any set pattern. They did happen to duplicate some of the monthly specials from last year in certain months but be sure to never tell your hosts what you think will happen from year to year. Expect the unexpected. Specials are not preset from year to year and are always put out to help our business based on what Home Office feels will best help us.

Are you in your Super Starter Months?

Yes I am. The order is for my sister who just had a show with someone else before i decided to do this. But i gave her the books to take to work to see if anybody wanted anything and this is all she has so.
 
Congrats on your new biz! By the way... I forgot to remind you that there is no such thing as a stupid question :-)

Are you (or your sister) in a position to do some gift shopping? Mother's day... birthdays... If you can just put some oreders in the name of the person the gift is for to get the show to $150 before shipping and tax.

Otherwise you would have to send it in as individual orders and the higher shipping rates would apply. The sales would count toward your $1250 to qualify but they would not count as one of the 4 shows. (You do not need BOTH $1250 and 4 shows - just one or the other)
 

Frequently Asked Questions

What does it mean to turn in $70 for a show?

Turning in $70 for a show refers to the minimum sales amount that a consultant needs to submit to qualify for certain benefits, such as host rewards or commission. This amount is typically the total sales from the show before any discounts or promotions are applied.

What are the current specials available when I turn in $70?

The current specials can vary based on the month or promotional events. Generally, when you turn in $70, you may qualify for exclusive discounts on products, special offers for hosts, or additional rewards for your customers. It's best to check the Pampered Chef website or your consultant portal for the latest specials.

Can I combine my $70 show with other promotions?

Yes, you can often combine your $70 show with other promotions, such as seasonal discounts or product bundles. However, it's important to review the specific terms of each promotion to ensure they can be applied together. Always consult with your director or the Pampered Chef resources for clarification.

What happens if my show sales are below $70?

If your show sales are below $70, you may not qualify for certain host rewards or commissions. However, you can still submit the show, and you may receive a smaller commission based on the actual sales. Additionally, you can work on increasing your sales for future shows to take advantage of the benefits.

How can I maximize my sales to reach the $70 threshold?

To maximize your sales and reach the $70 threshold, consider hosting a party with engaging themes, offering exclusive deals, and promoting your show through social media. Additionally, encourage guests to invite friends and family, and showcase popular or new products that may entice attendees to purchase.
