What's new with Tastefully Simple? September 2017

September is here and fall weather has seemed to come along with it.  Here in Massachusetts it's been relatively cool after a hot summer, and it's getting me in the mood for fall and winter cooking!  Fall is time for tailgating food, breaking out the slow cooker, soups, casseroles for church events, and of course, apples and pumpkins!

Fall is in full force with Tastefully Simple, so here's a summary of what's new for September 2017.

What's New for January 2015?

Well, yes, I know it's been a while since I last blogged!  One of my New Year's resolutions is to get my blog on a regular schedule for you so I can keep you all up to date on what's new and awesome with Tastefully Simple! 

So, it's 2015, it's January, so what's new with Tastefully Simple?  Here's the details!

Client Special

 


I love Fiesta Party Dip Mix!  It makes a fantastic spicy dip, but it's my secret weapon for making tacos.  Just brown some ground beef, add some Onion Onion, then season with Fiesta Party Dip Mix.  Easy peasy!  And in January, you can get a jar of Fiesta Party Dip Mix for only $3.99 with any $50 purchase.  That's a $5 savings!

Host Special

January is time for our annual 50% more host rewards event!

So, if you have a party with $500 in sales, normally you'd get $65 in free products, but in January you'll get an additional $32.50 in free products, for a total of $97.50!  I have a few dates available for in-home parties in central Massachusetts, but we can do a catalog or online party at any time!  Contact me now to book your party.

What's New for May 2014?

I'm still waiting for the April showers we've been experiencing to launch into May flowers, but I'm hopeful for the return of spring!  Speaking of returns, we have a special offer this month for those of you who loved Dill Pickle Dip last year!  It's back as a special offer: it's free with any $50 purchase.

 

You can't get this offer online; you'll need to call me at 978-549-2019, email me at tastefullysuek@gmail.com, or send me a FB message to place your order.

May 2014 Hosts

Which Tastefully Simple party type is right for you?

The party is really at the heart of Tastefully Simple: getting friends and family together for an evening of food and fun!  But there's a lot more options than just the traditional "pass and sample" party.  Here's a rundown of our party options:

1. The Tasting Party! Friends and family at your home or a public gathering place
1. Relax and Savor - You and your guests sit and enjoy a presentation while we pass around individual products for sampling.
2. Mix and Mingle - This "buffet style" party is more casual, with brief presentations before and after the sampling period.
2. The Catalog Party! You gather orders from your friends and family
1. Traditional Catalog Party - You'll have catalogs and order forms that you'll pass around to your friends and family.
2. Online Party - You can share an online party page with friends and family, and they can place orders online.
3. Hybrid Catalog Party - You can use both traditional catalogs and order forms plus online ordering to maximize your orders.
3. The Facebook Party! Your friends and family visit a Facebook event page at a certain date and time and participate in online chat and interactive fun.  Your guests can then order online at the conclusion of the party. The Facebook Party can be combined with a catalog party.
4. Freezer Meal Workshop - This is a totally different kind of party: a number of guests each pre-purchase a product collection that is used with additional ingredients to prepare a bunch of meals that can be frozen and heated up later.

All of these party options earn the host the same rewards: free products based on party sales and monthly host specials.

What's New for April 2014?

Well, it's supposed to be spring.  Here in MA there's some sort of frozen precipitation coming down, so I'm guessing Mother Nature didn't get the memo!

So, as we at least imagine that spring is here, I have a bunch of great new specials from Tastefully Simple to share!  April is full of fun and fantastic products.

April Hosts

April hosts can earn the Triple the Fun gift or our exclusive insulated cooler tote for deep discounts, or both for free based on party sales.  Woo!  My April is full for tasting parties, but if you want to schedule a weeknight Facebook party or a catalog party, just contact me and I'll set you up!

April Clients

Our delicious Cinnamon Muffin Melts are buy 1, get 1 half off in April! 

What's New for March 2014?

I don't know about you, but I'm getting a little sick of snow here in MA.  It seems like we have a storm every few days.  But when I look at the NEW Tastefully Simple catalog, all I can think of is summer!  Our new catalog debuts March 1, and you can get in on my Last Chance First Glance online party on Facebook to get a first look at what's new.  RSVP to qualify for some giveaways!

Fundraising with Tastefully Simple

Do you have kids in sports, dance, scouts, or band?  Are you part of a PTO? Are you looking to raise money for a cause?  Tastefully Simple can provide you with a simple and delicious fundraising option.

Everyone loves to eat!  And you already know how delicious Tastefully Simple products are, so you know this will be a super fundraiser.  So how does a Tastefully Simple fundraiser work?  I give you the tools to sell, you sell, and I write you a check as a donation to your cause based on the sales you bring in.

We have a lot of options for your fundraiser too:

1. Online-Only fundraiser - This option is online only, so no distributing catalogs and order forms, and collecting orders and money.  You share the fundraiser link, people buy, and the products are delivered right to the customer.  Because this minimizes my expenses, I will donate 25% of all sales to your organization.
2. Keep It Simple fundraiser - For this option, we pick a few products and I'll create a sell sheet for you to distribute to your organization.  You collect orders, and the products will be delivered directly to the customers.  Customers may also order from the full product listing online. For this option, I will donate 20% of all sales to your organization.
3. Full Catalog fundraiser - For this option, I will provide you with full catalogs and order forms for you to distribute within your organization. You collect orders, and the products will be delivered directly to the customers.  Customers may also order from the full product listing online. For this option, I will donate 15% of sales for sales totals under $1000 and 20% of sales for sales totals over $1000 to your organization.

I will also donate an additional $10 for every tasting party booked by someone supporting your fundraiser. As a bonus, all fundraisers are treated like parties, and as the "party host", the organization is eligible for host rewards.  You can use these host rewards to purchase products for free to create raffle baskets for additional fundraising! If this looks like a delicious option for your organization, please call me at 978-549-2019, or email me at tastefullysuek@gmail.com so we can start planning your fundraiser!

What's New for October 2013?

October and November are perhaps my most favorite months of the year.  The air is cooler and dryer, I start adding extra blankets on the bed, and the crock pot gets a bit more of a workout than it has all summer.

The Many Ways to Party With Tastefully Simple

While Tastefully Simple does focus on delicious and easy to prepare foods, it's the party that makes Tastefully Simple awesome!  We make it easy to get your friends together for food and fun, and to earn free and discounted Tastefully Simple products for yourself.  But the in-house tasting party isn't the only way to enjoy the benefits of hosting.  There are three types of parties that I organize for my customers.

1. The Tasting Party - This is the standard party: invite some friends, buy some drinks, and I give you delicious Tastefully Simple products to make.  Your friends come over, and we "eat our way through the catalog".  A tasting party usually runs about 2 hours from start to finish, although I've had some shorter and some longer.  I currently book parties in Central Massachusetts, with a few exceptions.  Tasting parties are a great way to get your friends together, and are awesome for people who love to entertain.
2. The Catalog Party - This type of party involves showing the catalog to your friends and family and gathering orders.  This can be done with paper catalogs/order forms, online catalog/ordering, or a combination of both.  Usually a catalog party is held open for 1-2 weeks.  You can be anywhere in the US and have a catalog party with me!  Catalog parties are great for people who have a lot of friends who love Tastefully Simple, but maybe work an odd schedule, live in a small space, or otherwise can't swing an in-house tasting party.
3. The Facebook Party - This is an online event that takes place on Facebook.  You invite your friends to attend the Facebook event, and I present videos, recipes, tips, and other information over the course of about 1 hour.  Your guests place online orders during the party. You can be anywhere in the US and have a Facebook party with me!  Facebook parties are great for people who have friends and family all over the country and communicate a lot on Facebook.  It's quick and easy, and just about no work for the host at all.

Now, is there any difference in the rewards that hosts can earn depending on the type of party?  No!  Hosts earn the same rewards no matter what type of party they host.  There are three kinds of rewards:

1. Host reward dollars - The amount of sales that your party generates translates directly to host reward dollars that can be used towards free products (or can be used to offset your investment in becoming a Tastefully Simple consultant!).  The more products sold, the more host reward dollars you get.  Also, if you have 15 or more orders associated with your party, you get an additional $15 in host rewards.
2. Monthly host specials - Each month Tastefully Simple has additional host rewards that hosts can take advantage of.  Some monthly host specials have levels, where the rewards increase as you reach each level. Here's an example of the host rewards for May 2013.
3. Half-priced items - If one of your guests books a party with me, any kind of party, you get any item in the catalog for half price.  You can get up to five half-priced items through bookings!

So what are you waiting for?  Contact me now to book the party that works best for you!
