Chad and I attended the Open House last night at Shelf Reliance.
Beautiful kitchen area, beautiful reception, just beautiful everything!
A little side note- Jason Budge designed everything! I was really impressed. I guess they said he practically lived at the new building overseeing the project.and it shows!
If you are a gold or platinum, your picture is up on the wall in the conference room!
It was very exciting to see a large number of our teammates there! Great job!
A couple of neat things to share:
1) we have a 5 day sale starting today. A new price list will go up today in our back office. Everything will be discounted another 5% off sale price. That goes for Web pricing as well as Q club pricing. Great time to encourage someone to start a Q, put all the sale items in there and get more for their money this month by shipping out the Q within these 5 days of sales.
2) our new products are wonderful. There is a jpg and pdf file of the new products on the back office.
Our new drinks replace the old ones. They taste different. No colors, artificial flavor or preservatives in these. We also now carry a sports drink that will replace your electrolytes. There are many, many flavor and they taste great. Shelf Reliance will continue to sell the previous 3 drinks we carried (peach, orange and apple) until supply runs out.
3) NEW under the bed storage rack. It is the same depth and width as a Harvest but with only 1 Track/Row of cans. It will hold small or pantry cans. We don't know how many cans that it, I didn't count but it should be a wonderful space saver. These may or may not be on the new price list. I'm not sure. They are sort of a proto-type.
4) NEW also our cabinet doors that fit around your Harvests. They look like beautiful pantry doors. They are white and have simple hardware and decor on the outside. Very nice for a kitchen or even bedroom space. A great way to disguise your Harvest in plain site. They weren't on the list of new products. So I think those will come later.
5) If you are coming into town and would like to use the new kitchen, call the regular SR number and press #1 to talk to the receptionist and schedule a time. You have to schedule 72 in advance. If you use the facility during business hours, 9am - 5pm, then the use of the space is free. If you schedule before or after business hours then it is $20 to schedule. You can have your "cooking show" or "training" live streamed and recorded. It will cost an extra $20 to do this. But you can send it live to anyone on your team or customers, family or friends. SR will give you a live streaming address link that everyone can click on and see you! If you are far away and you have a team member close-by, have them use the facility and give a training for everyone else on the team! So this isn't just for those in Utah. YOU can benefit too!
The lighting is really good there! You may also schedule a live party there as well. Bring your own cooking items and appliances until the kitchen gets stocked.
4) There are also conference rooms, lounge kind of area and computers available for you to use and talk with potential consultants or bring customers in. It is very well done and comfortable in there! These are free but do call ahead and schedule the use of conference rooms.
5) We had a great guest chef, Kim, give us a cooking demo last night. She made a smoothie and also showed us a great recipe for Quinoa. Those recipes will be available online at some point for everyone to try. It was wonderful. Some tips on Quinoa: SR's is prewashed. No need to wash ahead of time. You can make Quinoa in the rice cooker. This is a time saver for parties. Quinoa is a complete protein! It is a wonderful and healthy main protein replacement! It is perfect for the vegan, vegetarian or Gluten Free Diet. Cook it like rice, 2 to 1. And use chicken broth instead of water for added flavor. Bring to a boil them simmer on med-low for 20 minutes until the Quinoa is cooked through and the extra water is gone.
6) Lastly, we have over 4000 consultants now! Can you believe it?! I wish I knew who and where everyone was. That is really exciting! We really need some more Silver, Gold and Platinum execs up on our wall. So if you're out there and needing something to reach for...we want your picture on the wall!
Remember, our sales from today until 5 pm MST all count for August. So if you are "almost" there for hitting a rank, sell yourself silly on this new super sale TODAY! It will make a difference for you!
Thanks.
Rachel
