I'm having a tough time getting started with bookings. . .even people who said they would have flaked on me. To remedy the situation, I'm holding a mystery guest open house on the 14th. I sent out just shy of 300 postcards to all the moms in my daughter's school, posted flyers at my day job...

:confused: Any suggestions on getting consultants to attend the cluster meetings? Usually there is only two in attendance and they are always the same two consultants.

Hi everyone! I joined my local Chamber of Commerce and I have to say I am very impressed with what they have to offer. Lots of free advertising, networking opportunities, etc. I have the opportunity to host a 'mixer' at the Chamber of Commerce office this month. I'm told that I can...

I know some people tell their hosts that they must have at least 5 people attending in order to do the show. For those of you that do this I was wondering how you tell your hosts this without sounding mean. I had a show last night and it was such a waste of time. It was suppose to start at...

I have a show that was just booked for May. The host said she always has a problem with very low attendance. At her last Party Lite pary she only had 4 people. She wants to get more people there but doesn't know how. I haven't ask her yet, but plan to, on how many people where invited...

Hi... I created a February Flyer. This one is an Oven Mitt, Pad, or Both challenge. 10 guests = a oven mitt, 15 = a oven pad and 20 guests = Both. My goal is to encourage hosts to get guests at my party. It is good with their host order and will be paid for by me. I went with the theme...

I'm just starting out with my shows, and I'm really fighting discouragement right now. My first show was my own, and I only had three people show up. My second show was a bridal shower, and it was like pulling teeth to get the bride or her maid of honor to invite anyone to it. Only four...

OKay ladies - I am suffering from a bad case of writer's block I guess you can say. I am trying to put together a flyer for a fundraiser I am doing in the middle of this month. We've figured out ways to get people to host fundraiser's but how can I convince people to come :confused: . I am...

Had to share with everyone. I had a show last night that closed the same night, I can't believe it. This was my highest attendance and sales. There were 15 people there and the sales were $857.65. I had 3 bookings and 1 possible fundraiser also. This was just what I needed to get me pumped...

What are you doing this fall to generate excitement and increase attendance? Here are the theme ideas that I am planning on offering in the next few months. My themes in the coming months will be: August - "Ice Cream Sundae Bar" or "Back to the Fall" (you know...Back to the Future)...

I heard this idea on a PC Audio CD. Whenever you place a paperwork order, be sure to order at least one (they're $2 each) to build your library. They're great learning & training tools :) Anyway, the idea I heard and have been using is this: Offer to hold a Stoneware Drawing when there...

One way is to get and keep your host very excited about the show.Let them know how much fun evryone will have and how good the recipe is going to taste and how easy it's going to be to make. Look for signs during the coaching call which you can address like; I only know 12 people to invite-...
