What is prizes: Definition and 65 Discussions

ARGH!!! I have 5 recruits since January. Two were in February, so I still need one for May. I have 40+ people on my "I want to be a consultant sometime in the next 10 years" list. I have about 5 people on the fence, but the $100 extra free product isn't enough?!? I guess one good...

I remember reading on here about consultants handing out seasoning samples at their parties as a door prize. Does anyone else do this? I found one file in the file section but it was a PDF. Does anyone have a Word document?

Hi everyone! Im having my open house on May 10th, and Im just wondering what kind of items are good to have as prizes? I'm also doing a "mystery host" open house, that my directer gave me the idea of doing. I'm going to split it, just like a previous poster did. But Id also like to do a...

Not sure where to post this but I was at Wal-mart tonight and found Pink Grapefruit Tic Tacs. They have the pink ribbonon them. 97 cents but they are the big packs... I'm using them as door prizes!

I am needing some ideas on what I can give away as a door prize at a Women's Fair that I am doing this weekend? Each person that is doing a booth is to give something that they are going to be giving away each hour. I thought about giving away like a gift certificate that is for a free show...

Was wondering if any of you have looked at the list of prizes we get to pick from if Level 1 is the Level you acheive? There is some really cool stuff on there!!

Has anyone had success with "book to look" prizes? What are you offering? Has it been worht it? I don't want bookings that are going to cost me money when The Pampered Chef already awards hostesses so nicely. I was thinking of free recipe ingredients or maybe a $ amount extra in free product...

I have a fall festival in two weeks. A lot of people on here have talked about having the door prize be "win a free cooking show". My cynical side is saying that people are going to see right through that and say something... (I'm thinking that because that's what I'D think!) I can see...

Hi--I am strongly considering (in fact have already invited 2 other vendors) hosting an event at my house in mid November to help people get ready for their holiday shopping. RIght now it would be me with PC, a former host of mine who sells Silpadda, and another future host who sells S. Living...

Inspiring my teamI have a fabulous team of sweet consultants. However, the continuously have both poor attendance and low show sales. Excluding me, my team struggles with a &155 show average. I gave tried to pass on the great host coaching tips from my director that helped me. They say they...

What do you guys think of this idea - It may have already been done before When I send out the mini-catalogs I am going to do a contest to keep my contacts updated, possibly helping with bookings and sales A drawing for prizes throughout the fall The first one in Mid-Sept 1 chance...

Did anyone else get the survey via e-mail today? I got it about a half hour ago and just finished. The grand prize is the Exec Cookware - 7 piece (2 winners), first prize is stainless mixing bowl set (4 winners), and 2nd prize is Dots Large Round Bowl (10 winners).

Right now I just have the standard PC products as prizes at my shows. (SB, Citrus Peeler, QPK) Do any of you ever give prizes other than PC stuff? If so, like what? :confused:

Okay i need to place a supply order and i need some door prize gifts but I a was wonder everyone else usually gives for the drawings?? I over think everything and I'm always afraid that I'm giving cheap stuff or to much money out the window. So everyone please share!!! Thanks Heather

I've seen alot of games listed on here that basically the person "wins" doing a PC party. I'm curious as to how many of you have had people upset about their "prize"? I know that in the past, when I have been at a party (not PC) the consultant had little "gadgets" that she passed around to...

Hi Everyone, I am still a new person with pampered chef.. I am looking for things that i can use as door prizes, and fillers (for www.mompack.com) to send with my business cards.. Also, write-in receipts.. Or anything that you think a newbie may need... Can you email me at...

I have my first Home Show next Saturday. I did a Craft Fair back in the fall and feel a little more at ease doing this one. I am thinking about stocking up on the recipe cards (30 for 75 cents) and giving those away to everyone. Is that a good idea? But I'm wondering if anyone has any...

Hello, Does anyone have any extra host gifts or door prizes that they can part with. I don't have my debit card yet (call today and it's still not ready) or my kit yet and I'm afriad that once I get both of them it will be too late to order any prior to my first couple shows. I have paypal and...

Ok....So I'm a Bunco Addict. When I read on here that some of you were doing Bunco shows....I got so excited!! I don't know why I never thought of doing one when I sold PC before! (My first Bunco experience came from a Longaberger show.) So, I'm pitching the idea to my friend. Her family...

I have my first Bunco Show tomorrow and needed some suggestions. I am making the Quick Turkey Chili and Brownie Pudding Cake. Since most of the guests have been to shows lately, I wanted to keep the demo really short. I planned on chopping a few things, going over the specials (ccokware &...

and it was great. Of course, most everyone was there on time. But it felt so good to get started and actually be finished at a decent time. I cooked on a hot plate for the first time too! I really liked it. One lady told me she felt like she was at a Paula Deen Cooking School - being the...

What is a good door prize to do? Is a dollar amount better or a specific product or a FREE cooking show?

I am doing a Bridal Shower on Saturday and am also helping to host it. We are going to play Left/Right. What are some cute and funny prizes to go in the bags? The other host do not want to put PC prizes in them, just good clean gifts that will give a laugh. I am thinking of having about 3 bags.

What are your most appreciated and popular door prizes? I am looking to give some out and I am not sure what the majority of PC Guests would like.

I have had 2 Cooking with Kids shows at my house last spring and summer. I did them just like a Mystery Host show. So I gave each child who came a packet with 2 pages of kids recipes and a small bamboo spoon each. I also gave away a few things that I had gotten free. Now I have another show on...

Okay, what products are you offering in your Book to Look box? My director told us to be very careful about giving away too much at first so I'm concerned about that as I need to make some profit to be able to make this work. But at the same time, I want it to be worth them following through...

My first couple of shows are coming up soon. I'd like to have some little prizes available to give out. Maybe I haven't looked in the right places, but I haven't seen anywhere to order little giveaways. Where should I be looking? Any suggestions on popular prizes? Thanks! Oh! And...
