Help With What to Bring to a Show

[3girls]

I have a show that I am flying to do this coming up weekend. Does anyone have any suggestions on what to bring? I will have a carry on and a checked bag.

Thank you for your help ahead of time.

I am usually a "bring everything and the kitchen sink" kind of ppl, I have a hard time cutting back!! But being pregnant, I could not carry everything! So, I would only bring what I needed for the recipe (don't forget bowls to mix things, if you need them), my tool turn about, my 8" saute pan (to show cookware), small bar pan (if you have one to show stoneware), and something that's a host special that month, and the next month. Also, soemtimes the hosts specifically ask for something (this month, one of my hosts had a lot of friends who loved bamboo, so I made sure to bring some, and it's light thank goodness!)

Check lists help! Go through your recipe and make sure you set everything aside (including oven mits, measuring spoons, scrapers, etc) you use in the recipe. Then assess what else you can take (limit to specials, or high ticket catagories). GOOD LUCK!

Airport security will probably confiscate many of the tools that you will need. See if you can find a local consultant where you will be visiting who is willing to loan you some stuff to do your out of town show.

Hi there! Congratulations on your upcoming show! As a fellow Pampered Chef consultant, here are some suggestions for what to bring:1. Your demo kit: This is a no-brainer, but make sure you have all of your essential tools and products for your demos. Double check that you have everything you need, including any special items for specific recipes or techniques.2. Business cards and order forms: You never know who you might meet while traveling, so make sure you have your business cards and order forms handy to share with potential customers.3. Samples and catalogs: If you have any leftover samples or extra catalogs, bring them along to share with your host and guests. This can help generate more sales and future parties.4. A tablet or laptop: If you have a tablet or laptop, bring it along to showcase any digital materials or presentations. This can also be helpful for taking orders and managing your business on the go.5. Personal items: Don't forget to pack your personal items, including toiletries, clothes, and any necessary medications. It's always a good idea to have a change of clothes in your carry on, just in case your checked bag gets lost.6. Snacks and water: You never know when hunger might strike, so pack some healthy snacks to keep you energized throughout the day. And don't forget to stay hydrated with a water bottle.7. A positive attitude: Most importantly, bring your positive attitude and enthusiasm for Pampered Chef! Your energy and passion for the products will shine through and make for a successful show.Safe travels and best of luck at your show! Happy cooking!
