I am in need of help please. I don't wanna sound like i am begging but i have startd my pampered chef business and i have till Feb 14 to make $1250. If i don't then i have to return my kit i ordred and i am out the money i payed for it which is $155 and the money i would have to pay if i have to return it. My DH is angry that i would have to return my kit and be out the $155. So any help you ladies could give me would greatly be appreciated. Thank you again and many blessings to you all.

I am ready for the warm weather. Bring it on. I am so tired of bein cooped up in the house!!!!

take brochures or pampered chef info to the following places to drum up business:
banks/ visit a few of the tellers when it is not a busy time
vet clinics
walk in medical clinics/ask to leave a few brochures with the magazines
beauty salons/ ask to leave a few brochures at the check out desk
anywhere where there is a high concentration of female employees.
also ask to leave a brochure or two at the fave coffee house/diner in your town.
place an ad in your local craigslist or local paper to help drum up interest and to be able to book parties.
hope this helps a wee bit.

You need to set up a web page with the pampered chef co. No Last name and I can't get to your consultant page. So I can't place and order if I wanted to. Both my daughters are Scentsy Reps and they have there own web page. So If I type in Scentsy both there name pop up for me to order from.

Diana- I have not set up my website yet cause if noone needed or wanted to order anything then i did not want to set it up yet.

Diane- Yes you can order without having a party. But i will have to set my website up first.

I am ready for the warm weather. Bring it on. I am so tired of bein cooped up in the house!!!!

You definitely need a website. I can't help you out by ordering anything right away, but I would love to in the future since I am actually an aspiring chef ;). Plus I've just decided to become a Celebrating Home designer myself, and love to help ladies work from home.
Good luck!

I sure wish I could help out but right now money's a bit tight. Winter costs alot. But maybe in the spring. I hope you are able to sell enough to keep in business. I love PC. I went to a party a few months back. Good luck!

I would love to see your site when you get it up and running. There are a couple of things I'm looking for if I can afford them. Good Luck!

Set up a "squidoo" page-it's free,and helps to get the word out! Think positive and don't panic.....

I don't know if this is ok or not but a gal here in town put up little signs around town (at the local grocery, pharmacy, etc.) that simply says order Pampered Chef products from me! Can't wait until you get your website up...I love Pampered Chef!

Chin up girl and good-luck!

just a thought here, opinions are like shoes take what fits and throw the rest out. so mine is this. in all i have done in life i found this to be true... you must SEE IT TO BELIEVE IT> YOU FIRST DREAM THE DREAM << then you believe the dream. then you act as if you already have what you desire. then you work to achieve that goal. which in the end is. you must believe you need the web page pressure builds you act on that pressure. no one can order if they are not sure you will be there to back up your product. we need to believe YOU BELIEVE in your business. so yes i need 2 stone cookie sheets. but as the farmgirls have said. how do i order. i love PC products. i love MJF and all the girls. we can help. happy days for you. hope this is not tooo strong or pushy. i am happy you are here and have joined us. some of these girls are earning viable income from their wares. this is a fine place to call home. happy days to you sherrye

Also-don't forget to consider all avenues of income-do you have books,etc that you just don't want/need anymore? You could place them up for online auction,and that adds up for you quick-I know because I have done that-so you get needed $$ while clearing out your space of "stuff". (If you do this,be sure to tell us girls!) You have a ukulele you want to get rid of? ;-)
