Over-Saturation? Don't Think So!

[ChefBeckyD]

I just got home from an incredible party!

The host booked from a party in January. She told me she'd have between 8-10 people there this evening, and we were looking forward to a fun show.

At the beginning of my show, I always ask if there is anyone there who's never been to a Pampered Chef Show. Ummm, well, imagine my surprise when, EVERYONE, except the host and past host, raised their hand. I said "Did I say that right....I meant if you'd NEVER been to a PC party.

Yep, I'd said it right, and I was in a room with 8 people who'd NEVER been to a PC show before. WHAT A BLAST! They had so many questions, and wanted everything they saw....

I would have 8 bookings, except that 2 of them want to sign up to become consultants. I did book 2 shows - 1 April, and 1 May, and then I also helped one of the new recruits plan a date for her Grand Opening Show. The other one is a friend of hers, so I'm suggesting that she sign with her friend. The rest of the bookings will go to them, since it was their friends and relatives who wanted to book.

Incredible evening - and I LOVE my job!

And for all those worried about over-saturation, or bad economy - think again. I just had a party that's at over $500 in sales, and 8 bookings, with 2 new recruits. Business is GREAT!:love::thumbup::thumbup::thumbup:

I recently had a show too where not even the Host! had been to a Pampered Chef party and only one of the eight guests had heard of PC! I got two bookings and one recruit lead (the sister of a guest). I met the host at a booth in November and we've kept in contact ever since. When I had my Open House last month she came and booked her show with me. Most of these women are in their mid-to-late twenties from a different culture, but grew up in the US and were excited to be at their first PC show. I hope my potential recruit signs up as she'll be able to introduce PC to a new group of potential customers.

Way to go Becky! I think this makes it very nice for all to hear these stories. Some of us do worry. I have been lucky to find a group that hasn't been to a show in several years so that helps.

It's saturated in my area. I haven't done anything more than catalog shows. I've had people say they're going to book only to not follow through. I'm really getting discouraged.
