I had a very weird encounter on Saturday at my booth I did. At the end of the event, there was this one lady who came over to check things out. She seemed to have never heard of Pampered Chef. She was asking about a product to use on all her apples (she has a small orchard). So I was showing her all the different things we have that she could possibly use, none of which she felt confident that it was what she was looking for. Then she started asking me about how you become a consultant, how much it costs, what you earn, what the requirements are to be active, etc. Sounds great, right? But then with every question of interest she was giving me the opposite reaction of interest. Confusing? Yeah. She seemed really timid and quiet. She said she's not very aggressive and couldn't do sales. I offered her the brochures and the opportunity line #, but she refused. I tried to keep a slow, steady pace-to be even with hers as to not overwhelm her with info. She'd shoot down my offers, but then go on to ask additional questions! AAHH! She was looking through the catalog page by page for about 10 minutes! I offered to do a show for her or have her come to a show so she could see what a consultant does (she was brand new to the whole concept of home shows!), but she wasn't interested. I asked for her contact info, she said that wasn't a good idea. That she had the catalog with my info and that was good enough for now. Oh my, what on earth was that all about!
