What is holiday: Definition and 200 Discussions

Hi! I had my first Holiday Fair and it was a huge success! I received enough orders for a show, handed out about 75 catalogs, received about 10 leads for bookings. Thanks! Dana

My office is putting together a Holiday Shopping day and we other vendors coming in and setting up booths (tastefully simple, a jewlry lady etc) I'm going to be setting up a booth to sell PC but am debating on if I should cook anything to have in my booth for people to sample. Anyone have any...

What kind of special things do you do before Christmas? I'm doing a Holiday Dash for Cash and giving a cash prize for my largest catalog show. I have 7 booked so far and am hoping for at least 2 more. I was thinking about taking tuxedo brownie bites (topped with candy cane pieces) to some...

So when I log into the personal website, I see the Holiday 2011 evite that I can send to the guests of my parties. But if I send it, then it shows my name as the person the email is from and people won't open it. If I log in as my host, it doens't give her the option of the holiday evite? Is...

I had my first holiday boutique booth today. It seemed to go very well as far as leads which is what I was hoping for. It was also well worth the experience! People questions etc. I feel like I could have been more of a hard-sell or a closer... But it was in a retirement home so I felt like I...

Hi Everyone! I just received me acceptance into a Holiday Event in December. I have been reading about different ideas for events like this and some people do drawings and some don't. I was thinking about doing a drawing for a Free Cooking Show. Any thoughts? Has anyone tried this...

I have at least one, hopefully two booths and a real estate agency's customer appreciation event coming up all in Nov. I really would like to offer gift sets, pre-priced. Bear with me while I try to explain my idea... What I want to offer is a small assortment of gift set ideas in a range...

Does anyone have a flyer put together of the newly pictured gift sets or gift giving ideas? I've seen some people posting one on FB, but I think Sheila said it wasn't good enough quality for printing. Any help would be greatly appreciated! :)

I have several acquaintances in direct sales for other companies who have suggested that we have an open house together. I'm all for it, and have a couple others already booked this holiday season, but the problem with this one is that we have no where to have it. Our churches won't allow it...

Ok I am a little nervous. . .I just booked my first Holiday Vendor fair with my Daughters school PTA. I have NEVER done anything like this. . . I looked over the other threads and there is a lot. So those who have done them what should I make sure I have and do? I love the catalog in the...

Here's a "photo" that you can use on your FB page to encourage people to be creative and make their own holiday packages. Do me a favor though, if you are going to use it, please "like" the one I posted on my business page so that it will move up the news feed for my customers! LOL...

This is really cool! But I wish it was on each of our PWS's! I wonder what I can say in the status update to let people know not to order or anything on that site, but instead hop over to mine. https://www.pamperedchef.com/11_holiday_dinner.jsp

I thought this wish list HO put together was quite cool! https://www.pamperedchef.com/repsonly/images/cc/us/pdf/holiday_wish_list.pdf

I have a show in November that I am marketing as "Get Ready For Christmas". So far, my ideas are to make a Christmas centerpiece with the Trifle Bowl with either candies or tree bulbs and making Cookie Press cookies. Plus, we are using the Holiday Dots Bowl to serve cream cheese/savory sauce...

I am doing a Holiday Bazaar the first weekend in November. It is a huge event on Fort Knox with around 3000 in attendence. My plan so far is to offer free shipping to me, free gift wrap on $60 or more purchases, and 50% off direct shipping. I am just going to make the weekend a party and then...

Here's a little 4 to a page Booking insert for the Holiday mini catties. I printed on Red Paper. You can trim to fit inside.

If you use the Holiday Mini Catalog as your show invitations....when do you begin using them? November & December shows or just December show?

Does anyone know if Pampered Chef has Christmas/holiday aprons that we can purchase?

We have this wonderful resource for the Holiday 2011 with tips and recipes and gift ideas, but what I don't see if the ability to set up a show on the website and have the "theme" be a holiday show like we have in the past. Anyone know if we will have that choice later on, or not now since...

I am doing a booth at a holiday marketplace at my daughter's private school. I must have cash and carry items because the school gets a percentage of the sales for the evening. I want to do it because it will let my presence as a PC consultant be known to the parents. I'm trying to put...

Has anyone found the holiday online ordering Customer Connection Email link in the website section of Customer connection? I got the e-mail from HO today telling us to connect w/all our customers and to send this e-mail out. There is a pic of what I figure is the mailing on the right hand side...

I just wanted to share - Julie Ann Jones posted this to her blog today. http://julieannejones.com/my-best-direct-sales-holiday-tips I also wanted to add something to the bottom of her list of things you can do. Within the next week, whenever my husband can stay home all day with Abel, I plan...

That was the sound of me falling over last night at our team holiday party when my AD did 2010 year-end recognition & said as of Saturday I had sold $95,000.I came home and added in the #'s I had sold but not yet submitted....and my final total so far for the year 2010 is...$100,083.93 !!!!!!!

It's that time of year for lots of holiday parties and gatherings - opportunities to meet new people. On a Tammy Stanley training call last night, she suggested instead of saying to someone "what do you do?" to ask "what do you do for fun?" It should be a more engaging way to start a...
