I received a survey from PC tonight

Did anyone else?

:chef:
 
One of my recruits did.
 
Nope, not me. Can you talk about it?
 
I got it tonight too.
 
I also got it!

They were asking about how I did my cooking shows


That's about it

:chef:
 
Yup, just finished it. Asked how we personally did cooking shows...structure, style, anything special, what we gave away, how we picked recipes, how many we offered, etc.

We had to base it on what WE did, not others not our cluster.

Nothing earth shattering or top secret...did ask an open question about what we'd like to buy for door prizes.
 
Yup! I just finished!!!
 
I received it too. Took longer than the 35 minutes they said it would. Interesting questions.

I don't think it is top secret so I'll throw this out. Sounds like they are looking into ways to change our shows. Options I can remember.....(1) do the entire recipe at our house and have the guests do finishing touches, (2) offer work stations and have the guests prepare the recipe with us moving around the room.

They asked if we thought these different shows would increase our sales, bookings, and recruiting.

What do you think? Anyone doing these things? I'd think that it might increase our bookings because some guests don't want to listen to us :eek: :D and even might increase recruiting because there is little talking in front of the crowd....BUT I'd think it would lower sales since they aren't seeing tools demonstrated while we tell them why they need this :)

What are your thoughts???

Sorry I don't really know. But I can say that my 2 highest shows didn't have demo's!!! I think it really depends on the crowd. When people new that I did non-demo shows I found myself a whole new customer base.
 
I got the survey but I haven't taken it yet.
 
I received it and it took forever. But no one els so far in my cluster has received it yet.
 
I have recieved it but everytime I go to take it it says there is a problem with my password so I had to email the people. I believe one of my kids changed something in my email format so the only way I can get to links is by hitting the forward button. I wonder if that is causing a problem
 
Yep, I received it, and took it immediately, and just finished. I agree, it did take longer than the 35 minutes.
 
I got it and will be taking the survey in the morning. I need to focus on my recruiting interview tomorrow.
 
Got it. Will take it tomorrow.
 
Got it. Taking it tomorrow as well.
 
I got it too, just took it. I think it as worth taking!
 
Yep I got it...just finished...and I'm glad it wasn't just ME who thought it took longer than 1/2 hour... I thought I was being overly exact.

We go into a drawing for a prize...Carving Set (5 people), SA App Plates/Caddy (4 people), and SA Medium Squares with Cranberry Accent (10 people)

I'd love the Carving Set! But heck! Anything would be great!
This survey must have been given out to a lot more consultants, since there's a drawing. Weren't there other surveys where everyone who took it got something?
 
Yes, plan on about 45 minutes to complete it.
 
Got it and will take it later.

I just used my carving set (the older one) last night and was wishing for the forged set :) But actually, for once, I could use everything they are offering so I'd be happy with ANY prize :love:
 
mine didn't take longer but it did repeat mid way thru went form 61 percent finished back to before 50%
 

Frequently Asked Questions

Why did my survey suddenly go backwards in progress?

This can happen due to a few reasons, such as a technical glitch or an issue with your internet connection. If your connection drops while completing the survey, it may not save your progress correctly, causing it to revert.

Is there a way to recover lost progress on my survey?

If your survey progress has been lost, try refreshing the page or logging out and back in. If the issue persists, contact customer support for assistance, as they may be able to restore your progress.

Can I avoid my survey going backwards in the future?

To minimize the risk of losing progress, ensure you have a stable internet connection and avoid navigating away from the survey page until you complete it. Regularly saving your progress, if the option is available, can also help.

What should I do if I encounter a technical issue during the survey?

If you experience a technical issue, try refreshing the page or using a different browser. If the problem continues, take a screenshot of the issue and report it to customer support for further assistance.

Will my responses be saved if I exit the survey and return later?
