Hi!!
I'm a new consultant and just hit my 30 day mark today. I've done 3 shows and was wondering what everyone else takes to the shows??? How much is too much? So far I've only had a little table to work on and with all my stuff it leaves me little to no room to work.
I'm just wondering what everyone else is doing. Thanks :)
 
One suggestion I heard, that I will be using in the future because I take way too much stuff to shows, is only take the tools that you need for your recipe. (Note: I did say recipe and not recipes!).

Simplify, simplify, simplify!

Remember you will also be taking catalogs, order forms etc. If it looks too cumbersome taking lots of crates and bags that will probably turn off a potential recruit. If people want to see a product you always have your catalog there.

I think if your host wants to see something specific or you want to get bookings for an upcoming month certainly add that special item (cookware).

That's my take on it. Thanks,

Linda

Frequently Asked Questions

What kitchen tools should I bring to my Pampered Chef show?

It's essential to bring a variety of kitchen tools that showcase Pampered Chef products. Consider bringing a mix of essential tools like the Classic Batter Bowl, Food Chopper, and the Microplane Grater. These items can help demonstrate the versatility and ease of use of Pampered Chef products during your show.

Should I bring ingredients for my recipes?

Yes, bringing ingredients is crucial for demonstrating recipes live. Make sure to prepare a shopping list of ingredients needed for the recipes you plan to showcase. This allows guests to see how easy it is to use Pampered Chef products in real-time, enhancing their experience and encouraging sales.

Do I need to bring any promotional materials?

Absolutely! Bringing promotional materials like catalogs, order forms, and business cards is important. These materials help guests learn more about the products and how to order them after the show. Additionally, consider having a few samples or giveaways to engage your audience and encourage bookings.

What should I wear to my Pampered Chef show?

Dress comfortably yet professionally. Since you'll be demonstrating products and possibly cooking, opt for clothing that allows you to move freely. Closed-toe shoes are recommended for safety in the kitchen. Wearing Pampered Chef branded attire can also help promote your business and create a cohesive look.

How can I make sure I have everything I need for my show?

To ensure you have everything you need, create a checklist before your show. Include kitchen tools, ingredients, promotional materials, and any additional items like napkins or serving dishes. Review your checklist the night before and pack everything in a sturdy bag or container to keep it organized and easy to transport.
