Recruiting Activity: Hot Potato
Now I’m going to give you the opportunity to ask me anything you can think of about what I do – you can ask how often I do shows, what I love about my job, how much I typically make per show, what it takes to get started, anything! I’m going to set my timer for a short amount of time and pass around this item (pick something small like a quikut knife or Season’s Best) and when you get the product ask me a question about my job. When the timer goes off whoever has it gets to keep it!” Set the timer for 2 minutes. Be sure to answer the question briefly and simply. i.e. If someone ask “How many nights a week to do you this?” Answer: “I do _ shows, but what I love about this business is that you’re your own boss and you get to decide how much or how little you work.”

Recruiting Activity: Gift Bag
Use a gift bag as a symbol of how many gifts Pampered Chef brings to consultants.

This kind of bag is also called a "Why" bag... as in "Why do I do PC"

I also heard of having a rubber band in your Why Bag ... to show how flexible your PC business is

recruiting ideas..the ticket game seems pretty popular too. Get tickets, like raffle tickets and for every ? related to Consultant's , Director's, show's or whatever topic you wish to do; ask and give the person a ticket. The one with the most tickets after say 60 secs (use some sort of timer) wins.

Simple but seems to be working.

Someone was telling me they put a bra in their "why" bag to demonstrate how "supportive" the PC is!

Any other ideas for the "why" bag?

I've been doing the "Right-Left" game as an opening to every show and having GREAT success getting recruit leads. Almost one or more at each show. I got it from here somewhere... If it's a large group I'll have them pass a season's best twice for right and once for left, whatever works for ya...


Did you ever have one of those days? The boss left a huge pile of work on my desk before he left for vacation. Right away, he is calling to tell me what he left off the pile. I left work at 5:00 and dreamed of going right home to take a bubble bath.

After work, I walked in the house right into a mess. I had to take my little angel back to school right away because he left his report in his locker. Then, right back home to warm up left overs with my right hand, do laundry with my left, as well as empty the dishes left in the dishwasher and check the kids' homework. Then I had to vacuum, give the kids a bath and put them right into bed. Finally, with the little time I had left to myself------collapse!

If this sounds like a day right out of your week, watch what I do tonight to have fun and earn money right and left! Pampered chef may be right up your alley, it was the right decision for me, and it may be the right one for you, too! You don't have to be left in the same rut, week after week-----right?

Any other ideas for the "why" bag?

Here's what's in mine:

(I usually preface this with the fact that I started this businss for reasons that a lot of us have: to earn $$ and get free product. These are the reasons WHY I am STILL selling PC!!....many of these are "bonuses" that I never even knew I would be getting!)

Outlandish PURPLE bra- for the support I receive from my Director and at monthly meetings...and the new friends that I have met through PC (both hosts/guests and others that sell)

Small Schoolbus- for the fact that I started this business so I could be home when my (then) 7 and 10 year olds got off of the bus...and now I have a 2 year old and get to stay home with him all of the time!

Accompiament CD- I sing with my church's praise and worship team...when I started PC, I was DEATHLY afraid to speak AND sing in front of people. God has used this as a way to push me out of my comfort zone and really help me to grow!

Luggage tag- my step children go back and forth between OH and FL at least 2 times a year. Since beginning PC, my commissions have paid for EVERY PLANE TICKET.

Candle- My resolution this year was to be a light unto others. I pray that God will use me and my business to help others wherever they need it. Sometimes that's just a fun night out with the girls (that I get to be involved with!) or sometimes they need someone to listen to the bad day that they had. I am introduced to such a variety of people through my business and it's my hope that I really listen to find out what they need!

***If you do a why bag, keep two things in mind:

1. Only use 4-5 items, otherwise it is too much for folks to listen to.

2. Use items that speak to YOUR heart, otherwise it will come off looking fake. Sit down and think of all of the things that you would MISS if you had to leave PC...and then think of a small item that can represent each of those reasons!
