What is gifts: Definition and 178 Discussions

Do any of you get your consultants holiday/end of the year gifts??? last year I got them each a Vera Bradley change purse & a few other little things that were in a bag & then I wrapped a bunch of products that I had on hand & they drew #'s & then the person w/#1 could steal what ever she/he...

I usually send a thank you letter to all my hosts for the past year. I also like to send them a little something. Last year was fridge magnets with conversion chart and my business card attached. I'm trying to think of what to do for this year. Any ideas?

My friend is the sister of a host. She wants to order things to be a gift for a relative out of state and plans to have it direct shipped there. On my website it just asks for the customer's name and info, it doesn't seem to allow for a separate shipping address. How is it supposed to be...

Oh mighty cheffers, I am in need of your superior knowledge! I need to figure out gifts for my family. I have some fairly unusual parameters I am working within, and I am drawing a blank. I'm also running out of time. Here's the thing: My parents and my younger sister (now 14) moved back to...

Are these for sale anymore? I wanted to order some as host gifts, or thanks for bringing a friend...we talked about it at our cluster meeting and my team leader was supposed to collect and order them. We have had 2 meetings that we talked about them, and now I'm assuming that they were not...

I received this from my Senior Director today...I'm sure several of you have seen it already - it's from the LemonAidLady.com But I know there are alot of new people or those like me who don't get her newsletter..... and I'm going to try this at my next show(s).

Sorry if this is a dumb question. Does PC ship to Germany? an APO address? I have a consultant who has a customer who wants to send her son a gift and is stationed over there. Thanks in advance for any info :) Hope everyone is having a great Sept!!

Do you give gifts for a guest bringing a friend, and if so, what?

Another thread got me motivated to add some marketing stuff to my CafePress page. This is the ONLY design that has a drawing of a product. There are t-shirts, mugs, aprons, clocks, stationary, wall hangings, pillows, etc. You name it, it's probably there. I set this whole section with the...

Do you personally give any? If so have you decided on any yet? Are you cutting back because of the economy?

I e-mailed a registry gal who I met at an expo and she on her own created a registry w/ barely $350 on it. I have chatted on the phone just a few times, but she never wants to talk for long and prefers e-mail. So I hadn't touched base with her in a few weeks...wedding is 7-11-09...last we spoke...

My girls are in kindy and originally I thought about giving their teachers a flower with a gift card in it to Barnes & Nobles or Borders. But since I'm selling PC now I'm thinking maybe I should give them something that we sell. I was thinking of spending about $20-25 for each teacher. And in my...

So I just got this e-mail:Hi Amanda, OK, I DREAMED ABOUT getting these 2 items for a shower gift, so I'd better order them! Can you fix me up with... 1. An ice cream scoop and 2. A food chopper. Just let me know how much it will be and I'll get a check to you. My future Daughter in law...

Ok, Just wondering where you list consultant gifts on your schedule C - do you list it under Supply Expense or Miscellaneous Expense (I'm trying not to put alot under Miscellaneous because I'm sure that would be a flag)... Where do you put Booth/Fair/Festival Fees? Turbo Tax Q&A is...

I didn't get to go to Leadership this year. I was just curious what gifts you got? I heard they were phenomenol, but I haven't heard (or seen-pics would be cool) what you got. Any details?

My host asked me last night for suggestions. I want to put something to make sure they understand to NOT bring a gift and they will be buying at the shower. I want something cute & catchy and I am bad at that this morning!

i have some great stuff for host gifts for booking and some paperwork.... please lets go green and buy my stuff so it doesn't go to waste!!!!!!

I have four gals in my downline (1 who may possibly be a kit napper). I was trying to think of what I could do for them for the holidays. I was thinking of just sending them a card wishing them luck in the new year since they are all pretty new in the business. I also thought about getting...

What are you making to give as gifts? I like to make a plateful of goodies to take to friends. So far I'm planning on: Oreo Truffles, Candy Cane Brownie Lollipops, Carmel Popcorn, and homemade Cinnamon Rolls. Do you have any other easy recipes to add?

My director has a policy of NOT handing out recognition gifts (business bucks) unless you come to the meeting. I'm assuming that applies to her Christmas gifts as well since our Dec meeting is basically a party. Now, my team really hasn't been doing much, so I haven't handed out any bucks...

Does anyone have a flyer that they give out at booths at schools? Something that has ideas specific for teachers? Thanks in advance, Jess

I have a question concerning the "holiday gifts" in the catalog. Certain products, such as the Trifle Bowl, are also sold under "the entertainer." Are these two items the same exact product? Or does the entertainer not come with the stand or lid? What is the difference between "holiday gifts"...

Do you guys give Christmas gifts to your really good hosts (or repeat hosts)? If so, what do you give? Items, coupons, both?

What are some ideas you guys use for Teacher gifts? I wanted to make food-gifts for some of my kids Sunday School, Awana, and Kids Choir teachers...but each class would be about 5 teachers- so I can't BUY product for that many. I have two kids so they each have their own teachers (they only...

anyone have an old Christmas catalog??? Today a neighbor and I were in Big Lots & I found a gorgeous lighted tree in a heavy burgundy and gold urn for $15 I had been looking for a new one for my bedroom and this is perfect just curious what its retail price was.

do you tell your hosts what their thank you gift will be? or offer thier choice of X, Y or Z? i know alot of people do a Seasons Best... is there anything else you can offer and not eat your commission in process?

Does anybody know of, or have a great suggestion to name the batter bowl layered brownie/cookie gifts? :p

Since many of us have team members that can see our posts, I'm putting this begind the apron. Do you buy Christmas gifts for your team? What do you get them? I was looking at the what Merrill has to offer - are there other companies that you buy team gifts from? I kinda want something with...

Hoping this is the right place as I am looking to increase my sales. I was wondering what I can give as teachers gifts. One of my daughters has a male teacher and the other a female. I would like to get the word out that I'm a PC consultant to the school. Any ideas would be appreciated.

I didn't realize this had changed and wanted to share with you what I found. The soap is no longer one of the gifts. It's now: Sweet Cinnamon Sprinkle & Chipotle Rub A sweet and savory combination. A $10.50 #CP94) OR Cranberry Hot Pad/Trivet A silicone hot pad, trivet, jar...
