What is show: Definition and 200 Discussions

In an effort to be more efficient at prepping for a show, a director suggested I put together a recipe/product list notebook. Use a 3 ring binder with sheet protectors. One side would have a copy of the recipe. The back side would be a list of the products needed to make the recipe. Does...

I have a host that would like to do a chili bar- which would be pretty neat...but i need ideas! She mentioned the chili in her crock-pot and im thinking toppings chopped with the manual food processor and grating cheese with the course grater... She wants to feature stoneware since it will be...

I have a host who wants to do a "Fall" themed show. I told her I would put together a list of themes & recipes to choose some. I have no idea where to start, I've never done a theme show before & surely haven't come up with one on my own. Any help would be appreciated.

Hi, How long do you have to submit a July show? Till end of July or August 15th? Thanks. Schel

I am doing a couples grilling show next week. Any game ideas? Any good pizza recipes?

2 heads think better than 1. 100 heads definitely think better than one! LOL The venue doesn't want ANY food in the room. How would you entertain 50 guests? I know I could do a "walk through the catalog" and highlight some of our most popular products. But I'm looking for outside the box...

I am offering Christmas in July shows and looking for ideas for recipes to demo...

HI, I am completely new to this awesome site, from the little I have seen lots of great info. Anyways, I am going to Seattle in a month. I am having a show. Does anyone have any ideas on what I can cook that requires the least amount of product. :chef:

**Vent with question!!: I am a hobby consultant with a full time job but I love doing PC! I had probably my worst show ever last night ~ it was a combo with another DS, we were 'trading': I was her host and she was mine. We live in a small rural town (5000 people, over 100 miles to a Target or...

Someone wanted to try a facebook show, and she only got one order. She said no one else is going to order, and she just wants one thing. How can I submit their order without it being a qualifying show?

My show today ended up confusing! One of my hosts is moving at the end of this month, who had her show on December 16th. She has been after the people who booked from her to have a show so she could get the discount from that. Did that make sense? :yuck: Well, since she is moving they all...

Could you share the best way to set up a show as an "event" on Facebook? It would be for a catalog show, not as an invitation to come to one, but to place orders with me... except I don't have a website any longer... What would be the best way to do this? Thanks!!

I am doing a mystery host show tomorrow, and at first I was thinking that I would just draw one name from the Thanks for joining us slips. Now I see that people let people enter multiple times. How do you do that? Do you actually go out and buy tickets or just let them put their name on...

I'm doing a Mommy N Me Get Ready for Summer show. I'll have the kids demo some products to get ideas on food they can make for themselves during the summer. Then I want to demo a recipe for the moms. Something easy that they can whip together for lunch or dinner. I've already done the Quick...

Hey everyone, I am very new to Pampered Chef and am trying to get my Host Packets together for Cooking Shows and Catalog Shows. I was wondering if anyone had any ideas on how they put together their host packets (ie: what to include, what do you put it in, etc.) for cooking shows and catalog...

Has anyone made the Apple Berry Salsa using the MFP?? I am doing a show tomorrow and I think this would be perfect to serve along with the Microwave Chicken and show off a lot of tools.

I have a new consultant who is trying to submit a catalog show and the host wants it all on her cc. I told my new consultant to pay $1 on cash but she is still getting an error that says more than one order is being billed to same card which I just did last night. She is using p3. How does she...

So true.

I have a possible recruit that says nights and weekends are pretty much out for her. I know there is a day market out there, but i don't know anything about it. She can also do catalog and online shows. Can anyone give me some words of wisdom to pass along? Thanks.

Does anyone have any recipe Ideas for a Cinco De Mayo Show? I offered the host Fajitas and Margaritas, but she does not want Fajitas.

Just want to get feedback & thoughts from others. What has been your most favorite show recipe and why?

I am trying to simplify my business and decided to try the Printable Show Invites. Has anyone used these? I was excited when I discovered they could be "saved". In doing that I took into Staples to print and they informed me they could not print them as they are copy righted! Anyone else run...

I have a host wanting to do a house warming show for herself? Not really sure how to go about this?? Anyone have any experience with something like this??

Is there any harm in doing a fundraiser as a catalog show so that someone can benefit from the free & 1/2 price items and I donate a part or all of my commission? I was even thinking that I could "mystery host" the additional benefits which may draw in more people. It sounds like a win/win...

WOW! I just submitted a show last night (around 9pm or so) and I got the email this morning at 9:13 that THE SHOW HAS SHIPPED! I can't believe how fast that was. AWESOME. 12 hours!! Plus, I needed this show to become active again to order samples and supplies and was worried that I would...

Where do I begin? I was so looking forward to doing this show, but it was such a disappointment! My host sent out 44 evites, and she got 8 yes, and two maybes. We were both happy with the results, but when the party actually took place, it, well, to say it didn't go as planned is an...

I've gotten 5.

Watch shipping status for your submitted shows. I submitted a show Monday night and decided to check Shipping Status today for it's arrival. It is on HOLD. I never received an email and it is not showing up on Consultants Corner for a declined credit card. I called HO and wondered what...

For the catty show planner...on the last page it says: "I’d love to help you start your own Pampered Chef® business. As a Consultant, you would’ve earned $ ________________ in commission from your Catalog Show. You can apply up to $40 of your free product value toward a New Consultant...

I have twice. Once courtesy of the Slice and Grate (old style Mandolin). Of course I wasn't using the food holder. The 2nd time I cut myself I was using a self sharpening knife. i probably should have gone for stitches for the 2nd one- but the show must go on...
