I've loaded 2 layouts of a Stoneware Sale flyer onto TTConnect. I combined the 101 ways to use a stone with images and sale prices of the 11 stoneware pieces. Enjoy!

Hey Joy - LOVE the new eBlasts! They are missing a #4 though. :chef:
 
Darn, I just sent out an email yesterday...
 
Anyone have an idea for #4? I would love to send this out!

OOPS! I never noticed that... I copied it off an old flyer that I had. Let me see if I can come up with a #4...

Or maybe just call it 100 ways? :)

Okay, I moved 101 up to 4 and changed it to 100 ways.

Sorry Noora! I just thought of this late last night.
 
Thanks Joy!

Not your fault :) I'm thinking about possibly sending it out anyway. I need another show before the 15th, and I had pretty good luck with my Snow Day sale last month. I actually had a couple people say I should do it more often. This time, I just don't have to pay out of pocket to offer a sale ;)
 
I noticed that version 2 doesn't have any of my contact info in it. There is also what looks like a formatting issue towards the bottom.
 
where do I find all of this?? I'm lost

Okay, let me double check on it. I tried to edit it on the fly since I am at work and don't have access to my editing program from here... but as you can see, I'm not so good with editing raw code, lol.

Okay, how about now?
 
Sorry maybe I should've said more!! Where and how do I get to your flyers and newsletters. I'm new to all this!
I've signed up for tt.net, but haven't been able to send out any emails or anything? Is it because I am on the trial?
Thanks
 
k... sorry once again! I think I've found it, but still unsure how to use the newletter!
 
When I looked a little bit ago, both versions still said 101 Ways!

I just signed up for the trial and I'm working on getting my email addresses all updated. I'm pretty excited!!
 
I am just looking into figuring out TT and iContact, wow! I use stuff like this at "corporate" levels in the past.

Does anyone have information on success rates of using this versus the CC emails? Or an statistics? Customer retention, readership, purchasing?

Thanks!

You send the newsletter to yourself, and then forward it to your mailing list, just like any other email.

You can use it in conjunction with a mailing list program as well.

TT is not an email list management system, nor does it send the newsletter for you. I leave that up to your personal preference (and the email marketing experts like iContact).

I have heard (and if you search here, you'll find other posts) that CC emails go into spam folders alot. Also, since there is no tracking system, you won't really know how many opens or clicks you get off of them.
 
Joy~
I hate to be a bother but I have tried emailing it to myself for the past several days! and nothing ever goes through. Is there a trick? If so I'm missing it!
I thought I was ok w/ the comp, but this is proving to be a challenge for me

I get shuttled to spam sometimes... have you checked your spam folder? It's coming from [email protected], not my main gmail account.

Is anyone still seeing problems with these downloads? I think I fixed everything but someone left me a Facebook comment yesterday morning and I'm not sure if that was before or after I thought I had everything updated...
 
Thank you so much for these awesome flyers and newsletters!
I sent the stoneware one this morning and have 2 orders!! Together, they're enough for a catalog party...I may get 2 in before the 15th, yet!
THANK YOU!
 
It was me, Joy and it was before it was corrected. I just added #4 as "Bacon" and went with the 101 ways! :) You're the Bomb Lady!
 
OK, one of the gals who purchased new stoneware from this email has requested the recipes for some of the items that were on the list.
I think I can figure out some of them...but is there a good place to find the ingredients for most of these?

Quesadillas
Low-fat oven fried chicken
Apple pie tarts :confused:
Hash browns topped with egg and cheese
Ham & cheese crescent pockets
Low fat homemade tortilla chips
Baked Artichoke Squares :confused:
Fig bars :confused:
Potato skins
Apple braids
Baked apples
Stuffed baked squash
Home made granola
Low-fat baked potato chips
 
how do i get my cc website emails onto another avenue to send them? do they all cost?
 
It looks great Joy ... only thing is ... I'm not sending this to everybody because I was a bit late in sending my Feb. news and don't want to spam people. I'm only sending to those who have told me they are interested in stoneware when I call them by phone. Contacted 3 people this week and all 3 placed an order! (But one is returning her broken stone and getting other items instead.)
 
Hash browns topped with egg and cheese

A very similar recipe is in the new season's best ... Ham and Cheese Brunch Squares

The tortilla chips are just corn tortillias, spritzed with oil and sprinked with salt, and cut with the pizza cutter.
 

Frequently Asked Questions

What types of dishes can I prepare using Pampered Chef stoneware?

Pampered Chef stoneware is versatile and perfect for baking, roasting, and even grilling. You can prepare a variety of dishes such as casseroles, roasted vegetables, baked pasta, pizzas, and even desserts like cookies and brownies. The even heat distribution helps achieve a perfect cook every time.

Can I use stoneware to cook meat, and if so, how?

Absolutely! Stoneware is excellent for cooking meats. You can use it to roast chicken, pork, or beef. Simply season your meat, place it in the stoneware, and roast it in the oven. The stoneware retains heat well, ensuring your meat cooks evenly and stays juicy.

How should I prepare my stoneware before using it for baking?

Before using your stoneware for baking, it's important to season it. If it's new, wash it with warm water and mild soap, then dry it thoroughly. For best results, apply a thin layer of vegetable oil to the surface and bake it at a low temperature for about an hour. This helps create a non-stick surface and enhances the flavor of your dishes.

Can I use stoneware in the microwave?

Yes, Pampered Chef stoneware is microwave-safe. You can use it to heat up leftovers, cook certain recipes, or even bake items like mug cakes. Just be sure to follow the manufacturer's guidelines for microwave use to avoid any damage.

What are some tips for cleaning and maintaining my stoneware?

To clean your stoneware, avoid using soap as it can absorb the flavors. Instead, use hot water and a non-abrasive scrubber to remove food residue. For tough stains, you can soak it in water or use a baking soda paste. Always let it cool before washing, and ensure it’s completely dry before storing to prevent moisture buildup.
