My New Business
After much contemplating I've decided to start my new business. Now originally I was going to start selling my knits/crochet products but until I really get good I'm going to hold off. I will be opening up my photography studio pretty soon (I actually have a spot open for January if anyone is interested) but that's not what I'm talking about here. Actually it hasn't even officially started/opened yet but I'm way too excited and figured it would be good for business to introduce it now.
I'm back in business with The Pampered Chef - having cooking shows and selling the products.
I use to sell Pampered Chef back in 2008 and then stopped because of a lot going on...we finally picked a date to get married and then wanted to immediately start a family. Business was also slowing down because I didn't have the resources to market and get myself out there. Believe it or not I was actually shy when being around my fellow Pampered Chef Consultants (probably because I didn't know any of them). I will give myself a pat on the back for going into an environment without knowing anybody and trying to keep up.
The products are amazing! I have been using their products since I was little but old enough to attend parties with my mom. I would always want to help the consultant & hostess. Recently with having our own place I have really been getting in the kitchen and seeing what I can do. I also love it because we packed all our kitchen stuff in storage while living with my parents and now I get to use them.
I really hope I can keep up with it now. My goal is to try to get 3-4 shows/parties a month. It seems like a lot but I know I can do it if I try. I already have one party lined up and if I'm able to market properly I can probably have my first 3-4 parties booked. Another incentive right now is the bonus that I will get within my 30 days (a few new pieces of cookware to add to my collection) so I really want to at least meet that goal.
Please pray that for me that I will succeed and do great at this. And wish me luck.
- Also any takers for a party?!?! (you knew that was coming, right)
- You can also have a silent party (just gathering sells from family, friends, coworkers, etc. without hosting a cooking show) and still getting the benefits as if it was a live party.
- Also I will be throwing an incentive in there for a "silent" show that sells at least $150 in products when we close the orders I will bring you a cooked dish (just like when you host a party - I can even do private cooking show where its one on one cooking class)
P.s. It was mostly Jay's idea to start selling again. He knows me well.
I'm so excited for you. What a great idea!!! I love pampered Chef too. I remember my mom having a few pampered chef parties when I was a kid. I would love to host one. I'm not sure amount anytime soon since I have a very full Jan, Feb, and March but I will check around and let you know. If not I would definitely love to have one in late May or June :)
