Cookware Lending Program - Try Before You Buy!

I have an extra 8" saute pan in both the ss & the executive lines. I'm going to start lending these pieces to hosts who are interested in the cookware, but may just need an extra push! I'd like to put a note in the box with the piece, any ideas or files *hint, hint!* that I should include?? I'm thinking a recipe to try out as well as some quick "rules".....

I would definitely include type written instructions for how to clean and reshine the SS cookware as it is nit easy to restore, and may actually hinder sales (IMO).

The only piece I loan out (and have only had 1 taker of the offer) is the Deep Dish covered baker.

There was a flyer a while back that explained the differences between the SS and Executive lines. I don't know where it was, but you can probably find it with a search. It's been helpful to me in helping customers choose which line they would like.

Boy you are brave! I wouldn't loan my cookware out to my hosts..I would just be too worried about something happening...and I DEFINITELY would not loan my stones, made that mistake at holiday time last year...my BFF wanted to borrow one to make brownies, I gave it to her, told her to "guard it with her life" (no joke) and about 3 hrs later she called me crying saying that she broke it!!! I told her I guess her life wasn't worth much to her! ha ha
But that taught me a lesson to not lend stuff out that I couldn't live without!

These are extras, and I plan on being selective as to whom I lend them to!! It would only be for a day or two, I'd leave it with them after the show & get it back when we close!!

I think it's a good idea if it works out!
Yes, be selective! LOL
Don't loan your stuff to your BFF!

I agree, only loan your extra pieces! Not those treasured, seasoned pieces.
