Things You'll Need:
- Cooking show
- Friends and Family
- Invitations
- Food
- Fun
-
Step 1
Invite plenty of friends and family to the party. If you invite 40 friends, only about 25% of them will attend- so the more you invite, the more likely you are to have a large turnout and a successful show.
-
Step 2
Get outside orders from those who cannot attend. Take a book with you wherever you go- if you have coworkers or members of your church who cannot attend the show, but like Pampered Chef, ask if they would like to place an order.
-
Step 3
Communicate with your consultant regularly. If you communicate with your consultant, he/she can help you prepare for your show easily and provide a variety of ideas to make it a fun event for your guests.
-
Step 4
Plan your menu. Your consultant will want to demonstrate one or two recipes- try to plan around those recipes to tie your theme together. You can serve what the consultant makes, but you can also go above and beyond and make this show into a real party.
-
Step 5
Decide whether or not you will serve alcohol. Remember, if you serve alcohol, try to start the beverage service after the show starts- this way your guests are still focused on the presentation, and will be able to enjoy themselves after. If they have too much to drink before the show, they are more likely to order less or have a more difficult time focusing on the show itself.
-
Step 6
Call your guests the night before to firm up your RSVP list. You might think of extra people to invite- do it! Do not think just because you waited too long to invite them that they might not be interested- you never know, they might be your best customer!

on 8/19/2009 I would be interested in learning more on the Pampered Chef. I think this is something that I could do once I move back to SF. Thanks for the detailed information. :)
