Wahoo, I Just Heard From an August Host That She Is Ordering the

[jenniferknapp]

Wahoo, I just heard from an August host that she is ordering the griddle and stir-fry skillet for her half off items (230 points!) Plus my 500 for attending conference....and I know that my SIL is going to order about $300 in cookware because my brother gave her a GC for their anniversary..... and I am buying myself a few things....including the exec 7pc set! Oh, and I have a bunch of customers that are excited too. YAYYYYYY! I'd love to hear how everyone else is doing!?

ptsalready have a host taking the 5 and 7 pc exec for half price, and another host taking the exec skillet half price, plus got the 500 for conference so up to 1195 in points...yeah

Ok so I have a question. You have to be the host of a party to get this special right. Well I have a past hostess that wants to buy the 7-piece set, but she just moved and will be just settling in so she was wondering does her one order count as a show?

Did you put in a booking for herself, from her show that she already held?

How are you guys marketing this? I am thinking that I will have a difficult time to sell the cookware, because people here find it costs too much. In the (almost) year that I have been doing PC, I haven't sold any cookware!!!

Any tips would be greatly appreciated, because I did set a goal to get the 5-pce set of Executive cookware!!

I am having a party tomorrow, and with what the host wants (she wants cookware!) and from the orders she has already gotten, I will have more than 1000 points from one show! I am excited. I didn't go to conference, so I am happy to have earned those points so far!My goal is to get the 7 piece stainless set! Hopefully I will get there! I have one more show scheduled for this month, and about 4 for September.

Well, at 60% off any one set or piece in Sept.- that seems like it would be enticing for all hosts......and you get full retail credit even for the 60% off and free.

You could put in her order for a set as a guest order on a show under her name. That would give her a show total high enough to qualify her for the host bonus.

Of course, it's also bending the truth and probably against policy to do that.

When people hear the 60% off phrase, they have been jumping on the bandwagon! And like Ann just said, I offer them to book their own show off their show #1 so that they can get additional pieces/sets at 60% off.

Great idea ladies about booking a show off their own show! Thanks! I'll see how it goes.......I WANT THAT COOKWARE!!!

This is the BEST idea I've heard so far on how to market the cookware! I can't remember the consultant's name who shared this to give her credit... it was shared on a director's call with our NED. Anyway, how she is saying it (and how I am planning on saying it) is "IN SEPTEMBER, BUY A SET OF COOKWARE AND RECEIVE A SECOND SET 60% OFF!" And then go on to explain that they can get the 5-piece set (or whatever) and then get the 7-piece set 60% off! I LOVED THAT!!!!

Hope that helps!

Well I have 4 shows for Sept. That is about it. I did just sell the 12in skillet...to bad it wasn't on an Aug show....I am going to earn something darn it!!

If a host uses some of her FPV towards cookware do we still get credit for it?

Yep. From the flier:

Receive 1 point for each $1 in cookware sales, redeemable for your choice of The Pampered Chef® Stainless Cookware and The Pampered Chef® Executive Cookware. You receive points toward the full retail value of cookware, even if hosts select cookware using their Free Product Value, discounted and half-price options, or as a Monthly Host Special.

The September Host Special applies to your Pan-O-Rama sales totals at the full retail value.

So I am really bummed now.... I was all excited because my mom did a show in February for me, and I rebooked her for later in the year, so that she could get more cookware later on...well september would be the perfect month! BUT....her show was on 2/16, so sept 1 will be over 6 months from her other show ....she won't be eligible for the booking benefit, right?

 

[Christ Follower]

No but she can still do an August show for you and book off herself or have someone else book off her to get it.

Woo Hoo - as of this morning I already have enough Pan O Rama points to get the 12" covered stainless skillet!!!

Congrats! ...I am shooting for the same for my 1st free pan!

 

[ChefBeckyD]

I'm bummed! I had a host who just yesterday used her 1/2 off products to get the 5 & 7 piece set, and the DBG........she had a booking for Sept - but wants to use the 60% for that to get the SS covered 12" Skillet.........I was really excited - until I figured out that Pan-O-Rama didn't start until today!

Oh well! I do have 6 shows booked for Sept already! Those will all have at least host and past host purchasing cookware!

 

[tlennhoff]

Wow Carolyn, that is great. Way to go.

 

[pamperedalf]

I am up to 1,500 points in PanORama, and have 2 hosts that are doing catalog shows in Sept to get cookware sets at 60% off. This is awesom!!!!

 

[Chef Endora]

My sister had a July show & ordered the 5pc Exec. set. She had 3 Sept. bookings from her show. She wants the 7 pc Exec set & the double burner griddle then. She was gonna order the 12 pc 1/2 price thing till I pointed out the 60% deal. She decided to do it that way so it isn't so much from her piggy bank at once.

My goal is the 12 covered SS skillet & the 10" SS skillet. If I earn more, then I want the Exec. Stirfry, griddle, or double burner griddle.

 

[jwpamp]

Yeah!! I had a host order 2 sets of the 5+7 Host Specials and a Saute Pan! I went to conference, too....ordered my 12 inch Stainless Steel Skillet and lid with points to spare!!

This is such a great program!

Congrats to all who have the points already & those that are on their way!
