Stock up and save with Product Packs

You all know that Tastefully Simple has a catalog chock full of delicious foods.  We even have some collections to provide pairings and recipes.  But Tastefully Simple has introduced something new to help you stock your pantry, avoid the dreaded "what's for dinner?" question, AND save a whole bunch of money.

Introducing....Product Packs!


Product Packs are a grouping of many of our delicious products.  The contents of Product Packs are mixed up every couple of months so there's always something fresh and new to check out.

Our current Product Pack selection is the Everyday Delicious Pack.
The Everyday Delicious Pack contains:
  • 26 delicious Tastefully Simple products with a retail value of  $229
  • A 28-day meal plan - Just think, a whole month of meal ideas using these products!
The Everyday Delicious Pack is on sale now for $199.99.  So, that's a $29 savings off of the retail price.  BUT, if you use a Simply Share code, you can:
  • Take $50 the retail price (So your cost is $149.99)
  • Get a $15 credit towards your next Product Pack purchase.
So, the bottom line is that you can get $229 in Tastefully Simple products AND 28 recipes using those products for $149.99 plus shipping!  This is a fantastic deal.  So how do you get a Simply Share code?  Just call me, email me, or send me a Facebook message, and I'll give you a code. To see which products are included, visit this link.

Now this Product Pack also has another benefit.....it can help you start your own Tastefully Simple business.  But that's a blog post for another day!

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




Fiesta Party Dip Mix - $3.99 with $50 purchase














 


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.

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!

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

So, why do I love my Tastefully Simple business?

Jill Blasack-Strahan, the founder and CEO of Tastefully Simple has put out a challenge to us consultants to help us stretch a little bit in our goal setting and growing our business.  This 21 Day Challenge has been a great opportunity to review a few things, like revisiting my "why" for my business, setting goals that are a little bit out of my comfort range, and breaking down goals into reasonable, achievable chunks.

It's been a great experience, not only looking back on why I started my Tastefully Simple business in the first place, but the wide range of benefits that I've enjoyed.

To give a little background, I joined Tastefully Simple in June 2012.  I had been thinking about it for several months before hand, and had made the decision to join in April or May, but because of my work schedule, June was the best time for me to sign up.  I own another business, one where I work with small businesses to seek out, apply for, and win research and development contracts.  That work is fantastic, but it's not consistent.  I'd work like crazy for one month, and then have nothing going on the next month.  I started my Tastefully Simple business to help even out those low periods, and have a more consistent income over time.

So that was my "why" for starting my business, and at a fundamental level, that hasn't changed in the last two years.  However, there are a ton of other benefits that I didn't see going in.  First, it's unbelievable how many fantastic people I've met, that I would not have had reason to meet otherwise.  My clients and hosts are awesome, and many have become friends. I love that I am able to get out of the house and be social and share our delicious food!

And it's not just my clients; I've met so many Tastefully Simple consultants from around the country that have been an amazing resource.  My local team is awesome, and we're part of the top team in the country!  The support from the company is great too, and there are so many opportunities for training and recognition.  I'm looking forward to meeting many of my fellow "Tastebuds" at our annual conference (Partypalooza!) in August.

So, what do you think?  Do you need a bit of extra income in your budget?  Do you want to stretch yourself and learn and grow?  Do you want to meet fabulous people in your community and around the country?  Email me at tastefullysuek@gmail.com so I can share our business opportunity with you.
