What is party: Definition and 200 Discussions

I know it's late in the season for me to plan a Past Host Appreciation Party, but I was wondering how to do one. Do I do it like a regular show? Or do I just have a party for them with refreshments and a game, maybe? Any suggestions will be appreciated. (I'm trying to rejuvenate my business. My...

HELP... I can not think. I need something great because apparently I have a awesome reputation at DH's new office. He takes leftovers most days for lunch and they are pretty impressed that I actually cook... LOL The bosses are supplying roast beef for the main dish....DH has an hour drive in...

It seems as though every year I have a question about what to do w/ my daughter's birthday party... I am planning on having a roller skating party for her (she will be 7, as are most of her friends who are coming)...the price of the party includes everything for the kids, food, drink, skates...

my host was amazing, she did all she was asked and more. and her party was a great turn out..... her guests not only purchased great items for her and her fiancée (we did this as a housewarming party), her sales were a little over $800!! WOO HOO!!! Im so happy for her!!!

Got her guest list and it's all "Jane and John Doe" or "The Smith Family" So I wrote back to her: Question -- a lot of them are listed as couples - are we doing this as a couples party? My suggestion would be not to - because then people have to pay for sitters (thus less money to spend on...

I'm wondering if anyone has ever done a party where kids can come in and shop for their moms (or dads)? I was thinking of one next month and didn't want to reinvent the wheel if it's already been done. I was thinking of having the moms sit and go through the catalog while I make cookies with...

Does anyone have an invite for an ornament exchange party? I have two hosts who want to incorporate this into their parties in December.

Hi All- I am a self proclaimed PC junkie-had my first party 15 years ago and still buy everytime someone has a show. For YEARS I have toyed with the idea of joining, but instead seem to join every other DS company going, but nothing keeps my attention. In the past 3 years or so I have...

I like the idea that the home office showcases in the new mini holiday catalog - doing a cupcake bar for guests. I plan to offer this to a couple of my repeat hosts for something fun and different. Would love to hear any ideas, thoughts, tips etc... for this type of show. Thanks! :)

I did this at a fair this past weekend, and a friend did it at her show she did it a little different than I did... but the results!! For the fair I did: 1. fill out a contact card, pick a spice from the bottom of the spice turn-about. 2. book a party, or place an order pick a...

I saw on the fb PC page that someone was looking for a consultant in the area where I have two team members. I sent her a message asking what she wanted and here's what she sent back: Hi Kate! I was curious because I do gold home parties and help out reps by doing combo parties. I attend...

Any ideas for how to subtly "pimp" your PChef products when you are hostessing a party for another direct sales company? As far as what food to serve and how to serve it to best show off/make people want to buy PChef products?

Oh yikes! I just got a booking for a lady who really wants to do a cookie party! She wants to demo the cookie press since it is the November guest special. I have heard many people do this type of show as theme show party. I am a little intimidated though. I have not ever done this type of show...

I am participating in a fair/event coming up, where all vendors are putting "items" in a bag that will be given out to the first 100 people through the door. I am putting in the holiday minis as well as a recipe card, (in my own little package) is there anything else I should be putting in to...

I met someone at a fair booth who wanted to book a party. We set a date. I came home and realized that she marked down that she was interested in the business. We talked tonight about lots of things, her show, the business, etc. I found out that she's in fact never been to a show. So she'd...

Found this posted on mylifeisaverage.com Today, my mom and I were watching American Football having some mom-daughter bonding time. She looked over at me and said, "There's something wrong with this." I asked her what she meant and she said, "We're watching football and your father is at a...

I'm doing a party for a group of ladies tomorrow that I've done about 20 parties for. They are so cute, average age about 75. I need to come up with something new for a little ongoing game. I was thinking about something using a deck of cards. I heard something at conference about giving a...

If someone books a party for Oct off a host that had her show this month, then does the Sept host get the Host Special for Oct? Or can she buy any one item at 60% off?
