I want to start creating "Welcome Packets" to new neighbors in the area to increase my bookings - I'm having trouble getting a full calendar. Can anyone offer suggestions of what to include, letter to attach, etc...? I was thinking of giving a Season's Best book. Your thoughts would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
 
Invite them to over to meet and greetI once tried that approach when I moved into a new neighborhood and got no response out of about 20 flyers. Another alternative would be to invite both old and new neighbors to your place for a meet and greet. Not only could you get a kitchen show in for yourself (or use it as a mystery host show) but the social atmosphere will spark future interest. Maybe offer a small bonus for those who book that night on dates you've pre-choosen to fill. Good luck!

Hi there! Creating welcome packets for new neighbors is a great idea to increase your bookings. Here are some suggestions for what to include:1. A personalized letter: Introduce yourself and your business, and welcome them to the neighborhood. Let them know that you are available for any questions or needs they may have.2. Information about your services: Include details about the services you offer, such as cleaning, pet sitting, or house sitting. This will give them an idea of what you can do for them.3. Testimonials or reviews: If you have any positive reviews or testimonials from previous clients, include them in the packet. This will help build trust and credibility.4. Contact information: Make sure to include your contact information, such as phone number, email, and website. This will make it easy for them to reach out to you.5. Special offers or discounts: Consider including a special offer or discount for new clients. This can entice them to try out your services.6. Local recommendations: Include a list of local businesses or services that you personally recommend. This will show that you are a part of the community and can help them get settled in.As for the Season's Best book, that's a great idea! It's a nice touch to add something small and thoughtful in the packet.I hope these suggestions help. Best of luck with your welcome packets and increasing your bookings!
 

1. What are some ideas for filling my calendar with Welcome Packets?

Some ideas for filling your calendar with Welcome Packets include hosting a virtual party, offering a special discount or promotion for hosting a party, reaching out to friends and family for potential hostesses, attending local events or vendor fairs, and utilizing social media to promote your business and the benefits of hosting a party.

2. How can I make my Welcome Packets stand out?

To make your Welcome Packets stand out, you can add a personal touch by including a handwritten note or a small gift, such as a kitchen gadget or recipe card. You can also customize the packet with your own branding and include a variety of product samples for potential hostesses to try.

3. How many Welcome Packets should I send out at a time?

The number of Welcome Packets you send out at a time may vary depending on your personal preference and availability. It is recommended to start with a smaller number, such as 5-10, and gradually increase as you become more comfortable and efficient with the process.

4. What should I include in my Welcome Packets?

In addition to product samples and promotional materials, it is important to include information about the benefits of hosting a Pampered Chef party, such as free and discounted products, as well as details about your party booking incentives. You can also include a catalog, order forms, and any other relevant information about your business.

5. How can I track the success of my Welcome Packets?

One way to track the success of your Welcome Packets is to keep a record of how many packets you send out and how many result in a booked party. You can also ask your hostesses how they found out about your business and if the Welcome Packet played a role in their decision to host a party. This can help you determine the effectiveness of your Welcome Packets and make any necessary adjustments for future mailings.
