Starting out as a Thermomix Advisor is exciting, but it can feel frustrating when you’re struggling to get those first demonstrations booked. The good news? You’re not alone! Most successful Advisors have been exactly where you are. The trick is to keep it simple, make it fun, and take the pressure off the sale.
Here are 10 easy ways to get your demo calendar filled:
1️⃣ Ask for Support, Not Sales
People love to help! Instead of asking if they want to buy a Thermomix, say:
“I need to complete 10 practice demos in the next three weeks—would you be one of my guinea pigs?”
Offer to cook them a meal and gift them a thank-you voucher. It’s hard to say no to that!
2️⃣ Host Your Own “Come Dine With Me” Night
Invite a few friends over for a casual Thermomix dinner party. Show them how easy it is to whip up a meal, and they’ll naturally want to see more! No pressure, just fun.
3️⃣ Offer a “Mum’s Night In” or Coffee Morning
Busy parents love the idea of quick, nutritious meals. Invite school mums over for coffee, cake, and a chat—and let the Thermomix do the rest!
4️⃣ Team Up with a Friend
Do you have a friend who loves hosting? Ask them to invite a few friends over while you cook for them. Offer them a small thank-you gift for hosting.
5️⃣ Make it About THEM
Instead of “Do you want a demo?” ask:
“What’s the one thing you hate cooking?”
Then offer to show them a Thermomix shortcut—they’ll be intrigued!
6️⃣ Think Outside the Box
Try hosting a theme night:
Pizza & Prosecco
Wine & Dine with Thermomix
Festive Feasts & Treats (seasonal themes work brilliantly!)
7️⃣ Take Advantage of Social Media
Post what you’re cooking in your stories and reels. A quick video of fresh bread, homemade nut butter, or 30-second chopping will spark curiosity!
8️⃣ Be Where Foodies Are
Chat to local bakers, personal trainers, parents, or food lovers. Offer to show them something that makes their life easier (like healthy meals in minutes or perfect pastry at home!).
9️⃣ Use Your Own Kitchen as a Demo Hub
No one wants to host? No problem! Run weekly kitchen demos at your place and invite people over for a meal.
Follow Up & Keep It Fun!
If someone said “maybe,” follow up with a friendly:
“I’m still looking for a few ‘practice’ guests—shall we book a date and I’ll cook you lunch?”
People forget, so remind them in a fun, no-pressure way!
The Key? Just Start!
The more demos you do, the more confidence you’ll gain. Make it fun, focus on the experience, and the bookings (and sales!) will naturally follow.
So, who’s your first guinea pig? Drop them a message now!
