What is home: Definition and 200 Discussions

So I was psyched to get the HWC products because I had a cooking show tonight and a catalog show to closer prior to the 15th. Well living in the effing snow belt has wrecked havoc on my perfect little plan. My show as cancelled tonight and isn't rescheduling until March. Has home office...

The IRS and Home Office Deductions This audio recording has some really good ideas on how to make the most of your income tax deductions. Thought you may be interested in learning more about the home office deduction and how to be IRS compliant with your deductions. Make the most out of your...

I have had 2 shows in the past 2 weeks that came from HO leads. They total $2050 in sales, 3 signed recruits, 10 bookings (dates on the calendar for most), 3 of which are this month and are thinking about signing too!!! Heck, those 2 shows could have just put my entire year onto an amazing...

I went to my first team meeting and a few people asked me where I had come from, was I a home office lead? I just answered who my recruiter was, but did not ask about what they meant. I've seen it mentioned regarding recruits and bookings, so what is it?

A couple years ago, I shared the cost of our local Taste of Home booth. I did benefit with several shows, a recruit (which shortly fizzled out), and a few orders. Now, I may be on my own for this year's booth. With the economy, I'm worried if the booth cost of $330 plus a $25 door prize...

When you get a lead do they get your information when they submit their request?? I had a lead tonight and I called her but couldn't leave a message because her voice mail was full. About 15 minutes later I got an email from her. She just moved to this area so she wouldn't have ever been to...

Okay - at the beginning of January, I got a lead who was interested in booking a show. No phone # of course, so I emailed her back immediately with this (she also provided a work email...not a personal one): Hi Dxxxx, My name is Becky D., and I am a local Pampered Chef consultant. I...

i signed up for a 6 hour block of time(with another consultant i don't know) at the pittsburgh home and garden show in march. I have no shows booked so far for feb or march. So this is a make or break time for me. I could use tips, supply info, etc. You could share.my funds are very limited...

Okay - I'm not complaining...really. I LOVE LOVE LOVE those random home office lead orders that I've been getting almost daily this month. But I find it rather amusing that someone will pay more in shipping than for the actual product that is ordered. Seriously....to go online and order only...

Ok, maybe I'm just blind today, but I can't find the phone # to give a cutomer to call about an exchange. I usually handle all returns and exchanges for my customers. Even for items they didn't purchase through me. But, one of my host's moms (who lives out of state) wanted to know about a...

Hi everyone, I'm doing a Mystery Hostess Show at my home this weekend. I kind of wanted it to have a Halloween flair but I want to showcase the Fall/Winter products. I wanted to have some food/recipes already prepared and maybe do a quick demo in the DCB when everyone first gets there...

1st of all, I haven't done a cooking show yet and my 1st one will be at my house. But when you do a show at someones house what do you do with the dirty dishes? I know that most of our products can go into the dishwasher but you can't hang out after a show waiting for the dishwasher cycle to...

I'm so excited because if my calculations are correct, I will FINALLY have home office leads back this month for the first time since April. Does anyone know when it updates on consultants corner? I thought it was the 8th, but I'm hoping I'm wrong since it still says "not eligible for leads"...

could have been worse. Got there at 4, only 2 guests. The power went out shortly after I got there so no cooking. I went through the products and then the power finally came back on so I actually made the apple crisp. If she only had the 2 guests order, she wouldn't have had a party, luckily...

Just had to share, Gavin Earl Gossett was born at home on September 3, 2009 (on his due date)at 5:55 am. 8lbs 14 oz. I just added an album with a few pictures. I hope I did it right! We are doing well. Collin, Kaitlynn and Tyler are loving their new baby brother. I am just now getting...

Hello all! Has anyone ever paired with a Southern Living at Home rep? I have a client who just walked in and saw my PC catalog and said I didn't know you did this! So, I mentioned maybe we should do a combined party. (I'm new to this and don't have a lot of customers, so I thought this would...

I've seen a few of these links posted on here at various times, but I searched around recently and found a bunch more of them, so I thought I'd post everything I had. I love looking through all these cookbooks online and wanted to share! Halloween...

I am doing one this weekend at our local mall. I have done state, county, and craft fairs before. Any suggestions for big impact products, signage, etc. I'm doing a drawing each day and picking 3 for free shows. I don't have a set aside starter kit to bring. Thanks!

Extreme Home Maker Over are at a small town south of where I live. They are to tear down the house today. The house was pretty bad. The husband runs a place that hands out food and clothing to the community and has paid the workers and went without pay for himself many times. Extreme Home...

I received two home office leads that provided only their email addresses, they checked off that they wanted information on purchasing PC products. I sent them both the following email, a week ago: I was provided your contact information from the Pampered Chef when you visited the website...

Ok, I need your advice (and I have a feeling this is going to be long). I have a rather weird situation that has been going on for a while and just don't know what to do. I had a home office lead in April for the business opportunity. I called her and the conversation immediately began with...

I'm just trying to understand how all of this works.:confused: So - I've had several online orders this month already - 3 of which were from leads who just went to my website and ordered. But I've also had two LEADS (where I get the lead notification) asking for more info about ordering...

I don't understand this... I got on to the Pampered Chef website to find out about becoming a rep. I got an email from a lovely lady 50 miles away. So I signed up under her and have been busy getting to know PC and getting bookings. The reason I wanted to join PC was to meet people here...

I need to get rid of a couple of items. I'm tired of seeing them on my self. Does not include shipping. Send me an email ( [email protected] ) for a list of items!!! This is all for now; but I will go though my stuff to see what I no longer want. Will add to the list later.

Not sure where to put this... But I am just curious - those of you who qualify for HO leads - how many a month do you usually get, and how many online orders from leads? I'm wondering if what I am getting is avg. or not.

So my question is how do you store your kitchen tools? I am fairly new so I don't have doubles of anything. I have been keeping some stuff in the kitchen and some in my office on a shelf but then I am always running back and forth to get stuff at home to cook with then stuff from the kitchen...

We finally got home this evening. China was awesome and so different than I had ever dreamed it would be! I was amazed at the number of people there I have never seen so many people - every where you look there are people. The streets are crowded with bicycles, scooters, motorcycles, cars...
