What is selling: Definition and 200 Discussions

I've done three cooking shows so far this month and have already sold 20 of the new dripless pourer/bottle stoppers. All of my hosts had wine bottles with which to demo. We showed how it poured with the drips going back into the bottle. We also pushed the stopper in and then turned the...

Has anyone ever done a "pre-packed" show? It was suggested at a cluster meeting -- Something like a cooking class where you preorder a package (pie plate, slice and serve, bakers roller, apple wedger and a cinnamon sprinkle), for a set price. Then we will make apple pie together and they can...

Hi, I am selling all of my extra Sp/Summer paperwork, recruiting materials, postcards, etc. There are a couple of different things on the list that you are welcome to purchase. I am about to deliver my second child in 2 weeks, so I would like to sell as much of this as possible as soon as...

I just found out through a possible recruit that there is a consultant that has a rented space (usual used by crafters and antique collectors to sell there goods) set up down at a local store front selling PC products.:eek: Isn't this a no, no? I'm pretty sure it is, just like selling on ebay...

So, I have not been selling for at least 7 months now and I really want to get back into it. Does anyone have ideas to get new customers? All of my friends say they have no money and keep telling me they will book at a later date. I just met someone who is thinking about a show and I feel...

I've always wanted to do a "How to sell Cookware" Clinic-ish gathering. I really like our cookware, and have sold pretty successfully, but it would be great to do more and teach my team to sell it as well. I have the Lisa Amblo transcript, I really like the way she words things. I have some...

I really want to start selling the DCB but I haven't had much experience with it even though I've owned it for 6 months. What do you cook in it at home, what are some of the things that really sell this baker and what do you demo in it to sell it? Feel free too add other things that might help...

I have a handful of items that are duplicates which I got in the spree... and several retired items in my surprise boxes. What are the rules on selling them? I know e-bay is out ... what about yard sales, classifieds, fairs? (I have found the larger items don't go over well at flea markets.)...

Here is a great tip I got from a gal in my cluster: Instead of using the 8" skillet to demo the "Try Me" recipes, double the recipe and use the 12" skillet instead. I had a coaching call yesterday and the consultant happened to mention she sold two 12" skillets at her last party (with only...
