What is work: Definition and 200 Discussions

I did two shows this weekedn. Which may not sound like a lot to some people but they wore me out. Both shows did very well and still have orders coming in so I will be very excited when the commission check comes in.:D

At training on Monday we did a new 'story' for our shows. Completely scaling it back from what I used to do. I simply answered 3 questions with a one or two sentence each: Why did I sign up? Why have I kept up with it? What do I look to get out of it in the future? So, my story got cut...

I'm reading here and there that people do non-demo shows. I've never been to one in my 11yrs of attending PC shows and I'm wondering A) how you do it without boring the audience B) how well do they fare out in sales and bookings C) I find that demo'ing the tools is what sells them, is it just...

Hi All! This weekend I made the Tropical Torte with Fresh Pineapple for my husband's work cookout. I've made it before with great success, but this time I was unable to find Mango Sorbet. So I figured that raspberry sorbet would work. Boy was I wrong. When the raspberry sorbet mixes with the...

Hey all, you may have seen this, but I got it from my director and thought I would share. The kernel cutter, does it work?? http://www.wtol. com/global/ story.asp? s=10963046

Can someone explain to me how the website works when ppl order off of yours. My aunt lives far away and she said she will order off my site so what does she do? And if she places orders for over $150, is that considered a show for me? And after she orders I am supposed to get an email so do i...

Recently, I had a show where 3 people booked. :thumbup: 2 of them want to co-host b/c one of the ladies kitchen is being remodeled and she really wants to host her show soon (last weekend of the month). My question is: how does that affect the past host's benefits? Can she take advantage of...

Can someone please explain to me how a booth works? Do i bring my items for display and let the buyers order out the catalogs or am I supposed to have the items for them to take home that day? Thanks!

The torte that is in SB, it should be okay if I make it tonight and store it in the fridge for a potluck tomorrow at work, right?

Okay, so I finally pulled out my suds pump after owning it for over a year, and I went and bought a big container of soap... I thought that I was being so smart and bought the kind that is made for refilling a foaming dispenser... so now I'm confused... Ours doesn't say that you can't use that...

Sorry me again :blushing: If I set up a show w/ an out of state friend as a catalog show. When guests place orders online how do they go in? Do I get an email and add it into PP. I am just wondering how this works. Thanks!

Since I'm on a new workout program that requires me to work out 6 days a week and even gives me alternate work outs for days I cannot make it into the gym, I was checking out the work out room at the Sheraton. They want $12 a day or $20 for the whole stay to use their room! What the heck, do...

I just did my 3rd and maybe last Vendor Sale. I had Free Giveaways(a party in a bag) for anyone who booked a FREE cooking show! They also would receive a $15 gift certificate towards their order. I also did a guessing raffle with M&Ms, closest person would win a cookbook. No one was...

Okay, can I just whine for a minute here?? I work on a helpdesk. People call me all day long and ask questions/ask for help with their computers. Why do some people just insist on calling, asking a question, listening to my answer and then saying "no, that can't be it." I'm not saying I'm...

I had to share because I've been laughing my butt off at work for the last 30 minutes. I run a printer that purges ink ever so often and also through a cleaning cycle into a Maintenance Tank. This tank had absorbant foam in it and needs to be replaced every so often. The last time I asked...

I submitted a show late this afternoon, and just now went to check to see if it was "received" in the system. The status on it is "shipped", but without any link for tracking it. It's also showing up on my Incentives Calculator already too.Do they pick and pack on Sundays? I didn't think they...

Anyone tried chopping pineapple with the salad choppers? How did it work? My thoughts are that the pineapple is too fibrous for the choppers and that it will be a mess. Anyone know for sure?

Hey, guys! I was just wondering if you could tell me what's so special about the herb keeper? Does it really work better than your standard tupperware container? If so, why? Thanks!

I am so sick. I have a sinus infection and I really want to stay home from work. Since I don't have health insurance, I have to wait until tomorrow when the free clinic here opens to go get some meds. My problem is that we are so short handed at work right now I don't feel as if I can call...

I have someone interested in a fundraiser. I haven't really done many (usually on a small scale and a cause personal to me). In the past, I've just done it as a regular show b/c that's really what it was. Not a bunch of people collecting orders. I give my commission and keep the host...
