    Struggling to Grow My Pampered Chef Business: Any Advice?

    My last two shows were no shows. One made one sale, and I was able to move some things around that the host ordered to make the show meet $150, but my last one did nothing. My host wasn't really interested, no matter how much I tried to motivate her. She only wanted to do a facebook party...

    Feeling Frustrated with Low Guest Numbers at Shows

    Does anyone have a minimum guest # to keep a show? For an example, you wouldn't do a show if there were only 3-4 guests.
