I am at a hostpital with my daughter again for an infection that wasnot going away with oral anti, so they addmited her on friday night and we will be here till tomarrow and i gave our nurses a catalog to take home about 3 of them and i was woundering what special sould i ofer to them for doing such agreat job at being our nurses? any ideas?
 
I would give her 10 % off 50.00 or more
 
They get 20% off Simple Additions this month. Why take more out of your paycheck if you're going to have hospital bills? Give them each a Season's Best cookbook with a hand-written note on the inside front cover if you want to thank them.
 
I'm sorry about your child's illness.I'd just point out that if they get $150 in orders, they'd be entitled to the benefits of a catalog show. Or if you really want to give them something, give them free product, not a discount. You'll make commission on it, unless you take it from the free product from one of your own shows. (Say, a $300 show ... they get $10 in free product for submitting $100 in orders and you get the other $30.)
 
Hello there! I'm sorry to hear that your daughter is back in the hospital. I hope she is feeling better soon. It's so thoughtful of you to give the nurses a catalog to take home. They must really appreciate it. As for a special offer, how about a free cooking class or a discount on their next purchase? You could also offer to host a pampered chef party for them at the hospital. I'm sure they would love to have a fun and relaxing break from their busy work. Let me know if you need any help with organizing it. Take care and wishing your daughter a speedy recovery.
 

Frequently Asked Questions

What type of discount should I offer to nurses as a special appreciation for their hard work?

A common and effective discount is a percentage off their total purchase, such as 20% to 30%. This not only shows appreciation but also encourages them to treat themselves to quality kitchen products.

Should I consider a buy-one-get-one-free offer for nurses?

Yes, a buy-one-get-one-free offer can be very appealing, especially for items that nurses might use frequently. This allows them to stock up on essential kitchen tools while feeling valued for their service.

Can I create a special bundle specifically for nurses?

Absolutely! Creating a bundle that includes popular items at a discounted rate can be a great way to show appreciation. Consider including items that are practical and useful for busy lifestyles.

How can I promote this special offer to nurses effectively?

Utilize social media platforms, local community boards, and hospital newsletters to spread the word. You can also collaborate with hospital administration to share the offer directly with staff.

Is it appropriate to ask for proof of employment to access the special offer?

While it's common to ask for proof of employment, such as an ID badge or pay stub, it's essential to communicate this respectfully. Make it clear that this is to ensure the offer is exclusive to nurses as a token of appreciation for their hard work.
