Having some trouble getting January shows booked. Everyone just keeps saying they are broke. What are some of your ideas on how you have 'encouraged' parties?

Thanks!!
 
Have you tried not having a cooking show but maybe a spa party? Enticing people with "now that the holidays are over, along with all the stress and running around, it's a perfect time to pamper yourself!"
 
Another idea is to offer "new years resolution parties". Since most resolutions are weight/diet centered offering parties that feature WW or healthy eating might help you get those bookings.

Great ideas! Thank you ladies! I was stuck in a mental fog :)
 
Hi there! I completely understand the struggle of trying to book shows in January when everyone is recovering from the holiday season. One idea that has worked for me in the past is to offer a special promotion or discount for hosting a party in January. This can entice people who may be hesitant due to financial reasons. Additionally, you can reach out to past hosts and offer them a referral incentive if they refer a friend who hosts a party in January. This can help spread the word and potentially bring in new customers who may not be as affected by post-holiday financial strains. Another approach could be to focus on the benefits of hosting a party in January, such as getting a head start on meal prep for the new year or using the party as a fun and affordable way to catch up with friends after the busy holiday season. I hope these ideas help and best of luck with your January bookings!
