I just sent this one out tonight. I have a Host that is leaving her Show open for a few more days and I thought I would put the orders in for hers to go higher...
I will be submitting my final 2008 Show order on Friday, December 12th at 5 p.m. Please place any orders by that time. Attached is my "Gift and Stocking Stuffer $15 and Under" flyer for those last minute stocking stuffer & teacher etc. gift ideas! I can also give you ideas if you don't know what you can get for someone special. Any orders you would like to place by credit/debit card through my website, please use the following link:
PUT IN LINK TO LAST 2008 HOST'S SHOW
For example, a bottle of our Sweet Caramel or Sweet Cinnamon or Sweet Mocha Hazelnut Sprinkle at $6.50 each with a Small Bamboo Spoon ($4.75 for 2) for stirring would make a nice teacher gift and very reasonably priced! These Sprinkles would be great in coffee or hot tea for those cold winter nights! The recipe for our great Cinnamon Rolls is on the bottle of the Sweet Cinnamon Sprinkle!
My Sales Goal for January is $2,500! I am working towards a trip for 4 to Disney World in June 2010 and my Sales are doubled for January! Our Host Specials are fantastic! Anyone who has $150 in Show orders (not including shipping & sales tax) will get their choice of 60% off either the Master, Mega, and Micro Scrapers for only $17.00 or the Classic Scraper, Small Mix N Scraper, Mix N Scraper, and Skinny Scraper for only $17.20! Hosts with $500 or more in Show orders will earn bonus Free Product ($50 in BONUS Free Product Value with Show sales of $500-$699; $75 in BONUS Free Product Value with Show sales of $700-$999; $100 in BONUS Free Product Value with Show sales of $1,000 or more)! Guests who place orders of $60 or more (not including shipping & sales tax) will receive the Small Bamboo Spoon Set free!
Book a Cooking Show and hold it on the original date in January with me before December 20th and I'll give you a "Free Show"! I provide the recipe ingredients, paper products, and lots of fun for you and your guests! All you provide is your kitchen and guests! What a great way to start off the New Year by learning a great easy and inexpensive recipe to eat this Winter!
Book a Cooking or Catalog Show for January 2nd through the 8th, and I'll give you an extra $10 in free product when your Sales (not including shipping and sales tax) reach $200! If your Sales (not including shipping and sales tax) reach $500, I will buy either Scraper Collection for you so you will get it FREE instead of 60% off plus get $140 in free product to go on a FREE shopping spree to get some of those items you have been wanting! I get a beautiful Consultant Planner Binder if I submit a Show by the 8th and I know I will need it to keep my Planner intact since I will be using it so much this year!

I struggle with that thought every year at this time. I had a Black Friday Sale then sent out my November newsletter (very very late). Then on Sunday I sent out Joy's Outlet email. I still need to send out the December Newsletter, but I don't want to swamp them. I also sent out an evite (just to my hosts this year) for my Host Appreciation brunch. So, I'm right there with you. My rationalization is...there will be no reason why they won't give Pampered Chef if they want to. There will be enough opportunities if they are interested.
