What is hosting: Definition and 200 Discussions

I am having a show this saturday in Loveland, CO, about 2 hours away from Denver. My past host just moved there about 6 months ago and she wanted to have a show in her new place. I know its far, but she's a friend and I don't mind doing it (the hubby and kids are coming and we got a room for the...

Ok, so if you have a non-buying guest who wants to host a show, how do I enter that into P3 so that the current hostess can get the special at that party? Do I just enter the person's info, with no order? Will P3 accept that?

I had a woman host a show last night that I truly thought would finally launch some bookings. She had around fifteen people - and evidently it was a party before I got there! Lots of laughing, eating, drinking - which is fine by me. I love to see people have a great time! So we settled down...

Anyone ever do one of these parties? They have the books at my local library and my boys LOVE them! Worth doing a party??

I am needing information for my show tomorrow night. My hostess is Hispanic, but speaks English very well, but most of the guests speak only Spanish. She will be interpreting as needed, and is also considering the business. What products should I make sure I take to show. Most of them are...

Hosting a show - My 30%?If I host a show - I don't get commission on my order, but I do get 30% off... how do I *get* that 30%?I'm poking around in P3 and don't see anything.I did check the "consultant as host" option.

Recently I attended a Regional Networking Meeting. A handy tip that came up were these cards that some consultants use that customers would read so we consultants remember to talk about Hosting Benefits and Recruiting at the show. I've heard of this before, but I didn't ever come up with the...

I have a show tomorrow night and the hostess wants to know if her guest can book a fundraiser off of her show? If so.....can the current hostess get next month's special for the fundraiser next month? Also If you have a co-host show and both schedule separate shows for a few months later...

I had someone who said via the website that they could not attend a show that I am having this weekend. I wanted to send her the "sorry you can't attend email" I previewed the email and it says to put my name as host and that Angela would get credit. Her name is Beth Ann. What do I do now...

I want to have an open house in March as a kick off for the new season. Does anyone have a flyer or post-card invitation I could distribute easily? Didn't want to re-invent it if someone already had something created. Thanks. This site is fantastic!!

Here is another postcard. :D Enjoy. And if anyone knows how to convert them to word please let me know so that I can post them both on here

I am in CA, and have a Catty Show for a woman in MI. Should I Host Coach, ie. follow up, wish list, orders via phone or email? What would be more proper?

I was unsure where I should post this thread considering it really isn't Host coaching. Or is it? I wanted to know how I can have my husband a host of a show and not have any trouble from HO. I did this last month, and my show was put on hold. They had to take off like 2 dollars of...

I had a guest book a show off one she attended in August. She had her show in September. She wants to have another show in February. So I get to offer the HOST special to the original August host? Forgive- I am new(er) and gave my book to my new recruit over Xmas until she gets her stuff! :)

I have a past host who wants to place a large order (like $500 after her past host discount) and she wants to know if she can list her husband as the host doing a catalog show for her order so they would get the $75 in free product and half price items too. Is that allowed? Thanks for your...

Hi Everyone, I have a host who wants an American Idol theme. I don't really watch this show much (wathched the first season) so I don't have any ideas of how to do a theme show about it. Please help if you can! Thanks!

Anyone know any information on them? Their website is no help at all! Thanks. I'm referring to hosting, and if they have any guest specials or anything.

Anyone ever do a Mega or Multiple Host show at a recreation center??

How do you Host Coach in that amount of time? I have a lady who spoke to me on Saturday, I gave her a book, etc. Well, Tuesday she calls and leaves a message for me to call her, I didn't have the chance (going through a close death, birthdays, etc). So, she sees DH at our boys' practice and...

how often do some of your hosts' items arrive broken?? sara's mom (who hosted our first show) received all of her items and one of the pieces of stoneware was completely shattered and they shorted her a cookbook. I'm glad that it was part of her personal order. that way none of the guests had...

Just a quick question! In my Super Starter Kit, there was a flyer that said anyone hosting a show for a new consultant thru the month of August will receive a sampler of PC coffees and teas. I'll be submitting my first show on PP this afternoon and am curious....will PC automatically send this...

I want to make cards that answer questions about hosting and becoming a consultant. Questions, that some people may be to afraid to ask themselves. I would give each person a card at the beginning of the show and when there is a dull moment, have someone read one off. Does anyone have some...

I have one person who wants to buy approx $210 worth of product. I would like to put it through as a show so that she can get the free value product since she qualifies. How do I do this? Do I put her order under her name and then also fill out a host order form for her name as well so she can...

SO here I am four months a way from getting married..... I am so excited about getting married and my business everything this year has seemed to really flow. So what do we do? Well we signed up for the PC wedding registary but here is my delimina I am a newbee so I have never done a PC wedding...

I've seen on someones PC site they have "You can also come to this website www.pamperedchef.biz/????? to view the products and place an order. Just enter my name as the host and pay by credit card." Now my question is don't you have to set yourself up as a host on your website with the password...

I need more bookings!!!!:eek: I would like to host a cooking show and just canvas several neighborhoods in my area and put up flyers at the grocery store, post office, etc. However, maybe I'm just a little weird, but the thought of inviting a bunch of people I don't know to my home doesn't...

Hello everyone! I am still trying to get bookings and I'm not having a lot of success. So, I am thinking of doing an Open House. I am hesitant to have it at my home though. The thought of strangers coming and going doesn't excite me. Maybe it's because I have two little ones . . . I don't...

I'm a new consultant, and I have a friend that agreed to book a show -- but she wants to do an "Open House" type show with multiple vendors! There will be other consultants there from Discovery Toys, Tastefuly Simple and Party Lite and of course I'll be there representing Pampered Chef. I'm...

I can take individual orders now on my website as of yesterday. The problem I am having is my fundraisers. I had set these up before I got qualified. When I put in the host name, first and last, it says put in a valid host name. Since I am hosting one of the fundraisers I know my name is...

What do you guys do now with your door prize slips for those that marked "No" to hosting a show? And for those that marked "Maybe" do you call and offer them a Free Cooking Show? Need some ideas please
