Director Quick! Help With Meeting Tonight!

[chefkathy]

Tonight will be my very first team meeting after breaking from my director a couple months ago. I have one consultant coming (and her aunt--they kinda do this together) AND at least one lead.

What should I do? Just follow the meeting planner as is? Start with a quick recruiting spiel first? I *did* send out an email advertising tonight as a "Sampling of PC" to my entire email list.

WWYD?

When I have 4 or less attend (including leads), I make it a round-table discussion. I ask them what they need most from me that night. Usually it's the same-old 'I need bookings" and 'what do you do if...' and we sit and discuss. If they can't think of anything, we do the meeting planner. This has been really great especially if there are recruit leads there because it's real-world scenarios we are talking about and we're not just trying to sell them on signing.Hope that helps! I'm home all afternoon if you want to talk about it! Good luck!!!

I like that!I'll ask the lead what she wants to do, too. I'll offer her the "recruiting spiel" or she can just join in the discussion and ask questions.Thanks! I'm still going to bring my pink products with me, but I WILL NOT be making copies of ANY flyers!

Sounds good! I don't make copies for anyone either. We all have access to the same stuff online... they can get it themselves.

Hi there! Congratulations on your first team meeting after breaking from your director. It sounds like you have a good turnout with at least one consultant and a lead in attendance. I would suggest following the meeting planner as is, since it is your first meeting and it will help you stay organized. However, you can also start with a quick recruiting spiel to introduce yourself and your business to the lead. This will give them an idea of what Pampered Chef is all about and how they can get involved. It's great that you sent out an email advertising the meeting to your entire email list. This will help generate interest and potentially bring in more attendees. Overall, just be yourself and have fun with the meeting. Show your enthusiasm for Pampered Chef and share your personal experiences with the products. This will help make the meeting more engaging and enjoyable for everyone. Best of luck with your meeting tonight! I hope it's a success. Let us know how it goes.
