I am trying to do someone nice for my customer by starting a birthday club. I am going to give them 10 percent off there order in there birthday month. And they will get a free gift (i am just unsure what to sent them). Does anyone else do this and having any flyers or papers it. If anyone had...

I had to share with people that understand :) I have 40 customers/hosts that purchased stoneware in the past 6 mos! I'm thinking they each merit a quick email/call/note to let them know about the sale, especially if they missed it in my enewsletter (I do a really brief format now, 2-3...

I am sending out mini-catalogs to my preferred customers, and I am wanting to include something encouraging them to place an order, or book a show to earn the products. I would like to limit it to 1/3 of a page (print out 3 to a page) so they fit nicely in the catalog. What to you include in...

Good Afternoon! Uggh! I got frustrated with 2 of my co-workers today. Let me try to explain...Co-worker A is having a catalog party right now. Co-worker B is a past host and co-worker C is not. Co-workers B and C combined their orders *to save $4!* and therefore 10% past host discount is...

I'm trying to get stats from parties in the past. I wanna do something special for my regular customers and past hostesses. Is there an easier way to see the stats without going all the way through all my past party orders? Thanks!!

I've had several emails from customers for shows, saying they "can't find" where to order products on my website. :confused: Maybe they're just looking at the top-right menu bar? Even so, there's a link right on the first page of "Our Products" that says "How to Order." But how are they ignoring...

I sent out Holiday cards to my past hosts but was wondering if any of you send out letters of thank you to past guests? If so what do you write in your letters? My brain is blank right now. Thanks for any input!

So I was reading a message here earlier today about how someone had trouble trying to keep their customers from being too chatty and not watching or listening to your demo. She ended up doing a great show all the same! I decided to try a little something tonight as I was forwarned they would...

EXTREME HOME MAKEOVER IS REDOING HER HOUSE!!! She cancelled her show in July and we haven't been able to reschedule. I sure hope she does now!!!! They come home on Tuesday. I can't wait to hear about it!

to take care of your customers! I'm sure most of you are saying, 'Well, DUH!', but I just wanted to share two of my experiences...... At our county fair, I participated in a booth. I didn't get many sales but I did have a lady at the booth next to me purchase a can opener. I called her...

Anyone use this site? I have bought a bunch of stickers and have to say they look great.

Does anyone have a letter that they include with their pampered partner receipts to customers who have placed an order for a fundraiser to get more business? I am trying to put one together and if someone had a good one I'd love to borrow it. TIA!:)

Ok..I am putting this under bookings because that is what I am trying to get. I know over 15 other Direct Sell consultants either from show swapping or friends that I know. Anyway I am trying to put together a Spring Bazaar type thing where we all get together and put our stuff on display...

Can I offer a discount to businesses that have a standing order with me- say 10% (like buying in bulk) and, if so, when they order do I pay the difference 10% andhow do I do that on the order form? Thanks!:)

I got a call from a lady who wanted to book a show. She said that she had a show a few months ago and had over $700 in sales and 7 bookings. The consultant who was doing her show took the checks and cash and ran. Now all of her friends are weary of ordering in fear of it happening again. I...

I had a show last night where I demoed the ice cubes in my new Executive saute pan. Most of the guests were new to Pampered Chef, and they were so impressed with the pans that just about everyone wanted one. I felt really bad that I had to tell them to wait till March 1. They couldn't figure...

I heard that shipping has gone up for us consultants, but did it also go up for our customers? Didn't it just go up with this past catalog from 3.25 to 3.50. What is it going to be now?... $4.00?????

I just wondered if it would be appropriate to call my catalog show customers, in order to get more catalog show bookings? One of the customers spent $135 yesterday in product, and I thought she might be a great potential host. A friend of mine is hosting the catalog show in Florida (I live in...

I am looking for a letter to send out to my past customers and contacts to thank them for making 2005 a sucess and to help to start out 2006 with a bang and offering a booking bonus for shows booked in Jan - March. I plan on sending this out with a mini catalog(contacts) or a seasons...

I have recently had 2 different customers give me their products without their receipt to send back to HO to get replaced. 1. My first customer I met at a local harvest festival and she told me she had a pair of scissors that she had had for just less than 5 years and they was becoming dull...

How long is a reasonable time to still be able to call customers from your shows, as a follow up call? I did a show on July 6th that had twenty purchasing customers. About half of them I managed to call within 2 weeks after their product arrived, but the rest were difficult to get ahold of, then...

I'm thinking about, at my next show, giving out a 'booklet' (just some pages stapled together!) to all the guests as they leave. Basically include my business card, the recipe I made that night, the 'My Story' sheet and some kind of flyer that might have a coupon for $5.00 extra in free product...
