So it seems that after about 6 people seeing the spring/summer products, I have actual orders for 4 grill baskets, 3 large sheet pans, 1 medium sheet pan & 2 plate caddy. There's more, but it's great to know that the grill basket & sheet pans are a hit so far. Now that most of us have seen at least some of them, what are your favorites?? I highly suggest just giving mini-catalogs to people even if they JUST orders (I just got a $100 order from two people that just ordered about $100 each in Feb). Now THAT is a good V-day present. My hubby brought catalogs to works and walked them through the catalogs telling them what's really good. He's one that doesn't really hang out in the office to chat...work to do (owns a heating and a/c business in Wisconsin!!) but it's been so cold lately new installs are slowed a bit so he's helping my business :love: . They tell me he's such a good salesman. Yes, yes he is b/c he only loves a few select items.
 
Cool. Congratulations. I've always said the PC products sell themselves. :)
 
I took the sheet pan to work today and let someone else use it...thinking I'll be getting an order from him soon...actually one of his employees is doing a March show so I told him to place an order for her!
 
I have a co-worker who cannot wait to order the sheet pan as well for her mother. I am planning on purchasing a few for my mother also, she has flat out refused to try the stoneware. The older generation of stuborn women LOL

I think everyone who was upset that they came out with metal pans will be so happy when they start selling a bunch. :)

I wasn't upset, but surprised. I'm just so glad that they are nice and strong. Great quality as far as I can tell. I am only a little concerned about junk getting stuck in the *opening* under the rim.
 
I am going to start giving my catalogs out next week and hope to have this same success. I need some shows to earn HWC!
 
i too have had 2 orders for the new spring line. it is so cool and pc products really do sell themselves
 
I am having a spring kick off open house tonight and tomorrow night and am so excited about the new products. I can't wait to take orders
 
I had a guest from my show Tuesday night call me about 15 minutes ago to see how soon she could start taking up a show from the new catalog b/c when they were grilling last night she wished she had the grill basket! YAHOO!! I am taking her a packet this weekend.
 
Awesome Jennifer!!! You go girl!
