Jason - it is great to show those who want it all what they are missing. It is a tool for Wedding Showers and Registries, but why not use it for other people?


This list confuses me also. From my initial review, it just appears to be a complete list of products from the catalog. Don't get me wrong I think all of our products are great, but it a little presumptuous to tell a customer to be well stocked they need it all.

I was really hoping this list would be a list with a good base for newlyweds or any kitchen.
 
Kristi that is so awesome!! Good Job keep up the good work!:)
 
Kristi that rocks! Congrats on such an awesome show! Hopefully you'll now have a whole new catalog show base of customers after she moves too :)

It's not actually everything. It's less than half of the catalog, but it includes all the "basic" tools and entertaining pieces. It's a good thing to use to help people find the gaps in what they already own when they're placing an order.
 
Wow! Congratulations on your show. I've had too many cancellations this month but one show like that would make up for it :).

I'm thinking especially those people (and we've all had them!) who come to a show and say "Oh I already have everything in the catalog"!

Well, my host just called and I'm now up to $1419 in sales! I told her where she's at with her host benefits and she said that she's going to get EVERYHTING she needs for her new kitchen! YEah! What an awesome HOST and SHOW!!!:D I'll let you know where I am at ALL times! :)
 
That's awesome Kristi!!!!!!!!!!
 
Awesome Kristi - keep it going!

Hey, I have a question, is a host limited to how many shows per month they can hold for you? Let's use Feb for example. If they wanted to host a home show February 8th for one group of people then let's say 22nd with another group, could they do that and get the host discounts twice?

I don't remember reading anything on this yet...and I've been reading A LOT! - Pretty soon my 5-year-old will have PC stuff to read for her Book-It Program! LOL!
 
I don't think there is a limit Janet..as long as they are all qualified shows.
 
Forgot to mention that you should put the host as a booking to get the extra extra benefit of getting 2 of the host specials, 1 as a customer and 1 as host. If you need me to further explain let me know.

Thanks Guys! The woman who spent $278 just said that she wanted to add on a Baker's Roller so it put her out of pocket to $295.37!! I mean, I've had people do that but I give them the host benefits and make it their own show! What's great is that I get full comission on that one order! :D Now my show is at $1434.90 and I know she has one more order from her daughter and of course the hosts order. I have a show to get ready for in a few so I hope I get those orders before I go! That would totally make my night!

Janet, Harriet is correct! They can hold as many shows as they want for you! Same thing goes for you!:D
 
You are on quite a roll Kristi! Good luck with your show later today!

Thanks harriet! My Senior Director told me that people get the "rolling momentum" and I've hit mine! I hope it continues ALL month!!!:D
 
Let's hope your momentum stays for a long, long time!!!!!!

Yes, but you know how your momentum just dies sometimes? Well, I don't want it to die for a LONG time! I won't let it!:D
 
Thats so cool Kristi!
I had a guest about a year ago spend over $300 at a party and all I could think was the benefits she would have gotten if she had turned this into a show! I told her that and she said she doesnt do parties, not even catalog - she had just rather spend her money (she is rich too)....fine by me! She has continued to be a good customer, just sends me orders now and then and I add them onto shows. Nothing as big as that $300+ order but still it is great to have her!!!
Way to Go - can't wait to hear what your commissionable sales are once the host places her order!!!
BTW - did you end up fixing a trifle?
