What is mystery host: Definition and 172 Discussions

I see all these threads and posts about Mystery Host and I've searched, but I still don't know WHAT or HOW to do this. Can someone help me describe the process. Thanks :)

One more question as I'm wrapping up my mystery host... Most of the hosts ordered way more than $80 (guest special level in Canada), so of course they're technically entitled to one of the June guest specials. But since I'm putting all the host orders in under 2 co-hosts, I can only get 2 of...

I'll be wrapping up my first Mystery Host show tomorrow (with a wrap-up party!). I had 5 people participating initially, and then I added one more whose scheduled cooking show was canceled, but she had some orders (I don't have those orders from her yet, so am going on faith that she does have...

Hello! I was thinking about hosting a "Christmas in July" Mystery Host show and was wondering how many of you have also done this and what kinds of things do you do at the show? I normally host an open house in November or December with gift ideas and a cookie swap, but this would be something...

I'm just getting ready to send out an email to get a $1000 Mystery Host Show (thanks to Chef BeckyD and all others for your great ideas on that super-long thread!!!). But I'm just trying to figure out the prizes, and am a little confused, as the free value of the prizes others have listed seems...

I know this has probably been addressed but I can't find what I am looking for. So I'm posting this. So I have nothing currently on the books for June!:( I only had May sales because of my ladies night out event. I actually picked up the phone tonight. Made about 10 calls left a few messages...

Just signed up for Tasty Tidbits and sent my 1st newsletter yesterday and had 2 folks want the trifle bowl. Was thinking of setting up an April Mystery Host party (to get another show in to qualify for the apron) and I was wondering if you have a Mystery Host newsletter as I would like to pick...

I'm doing a quickie Mystery Host Show before I move away (Moving from Minnesota to Mississippi) and I sent this email out. ANYWAY! I sent that out to about 30 people (I know it said only 10, but I know that over half of those people don't check their email often enough) After sending it I...

I held a Mystery Host Show on Sunday and was planning on having four drawings to give away the host benefits: 1- Monthly host special 2- Free product value 3- 1/2 price items 4- Discount I know how to enter in 1-3 however, I'm not sure how to apply the discount for one person...

I need someone to please help me develop a Mystery Host program for this month. I really want to go to conference but have nothing on my calendar for this month. I did the Home show this past weekend and that has helped me get bookings for April, May, and June. I would really like to earn...

I did a huge Mystery Host Show last month - over $1200 and when the orders were all sorted, I was short 1 digital thermometer ( I had ordered 6). I did an online adjustment yesterday ( Friday) and this morning (Saturday), Fedex delivered it! OMG! From Chicago to Cleveland Ohio overnight. I spoke...

Well after reading all the threads on Mystery Host Show's I decided to try my hand at one. Since my dad died in January, I took a little time off and didn't have much on my calendar. I decided I needed to get something done in Feb. for the double points. I took one of the letters on here and...

So I'm wanting to have a "Spring Launch" Show of my own for my customers. I'm wanting to to do it as a "Mystery Host Show" show as well so that I can rafflel off the host rewards to a few lucky guest. I figure they can come check out our new products and recipies but also get a chance to recieve...

Ok. I'm a newbie. Just got my start kit this past Wednesday. I've read several posts about the $1000 mystery host show. I have a few questions about how this works. I was thinking about offering this to friends and family that live out of the area. How are you able to offer 30% off each...

So I'm thinking I really need to collect checks or cash from my mystery hosts right? Will it let me put in credit card numbers for each "host" to pay for their orders? One host was going to give me their because I was thinking it would be easier, but after I hung up I thought otherwise. Please...

Hi everyone! I'd like to try this out too to get to level 3 of SAT. I'm at $2600 with 2 shows but only have one more left plus a catty (and we all know those are hit and miss) and our level 3 in Canada is $3500 so I need $900 with this last show. I don't think it's going to happen since she's...

Out of the 5 people who said they would participate in my Mystery Host Show only 2 turned in orders. Good thing, it's just over $600 in orders! I can only imagine if everyone had turned in orders. I'm trying to figure out how to split it up though. One had about $400 in orders, the other had...

I cannot find ChefbeckyD's mystery host email! Anyone have it or can bump up the post?

I just wanted to post a reminder of a great idea! I finally did a Mystery host show (I've been with PC for a year -- but I was worried no-one would want to do it, ect.. and basically it would flop!) But my Oct. wasn't what I wanted and I am going on a trip, so I need to get things rolling...

Finally, here they are! I'm so sorry to eveyone for not getting these up. I know that I said I would. With sick kids and promoting another director, it's just been crazy! good crazy, but still silly!!

I really need help - my show cancelled next week and I refuse to have another September (had 2 shows and they both cancelled). Does anyone have the instructions for how to do a Mystery Host show? I would like to try one to make up for the party that cancelled? Thanks. Annie

So we are house hunting and a recipe tasting or open house of sorts just isn't a good idea. So to earn my October incentives from my director I've decided to do a Mystery Host show and my own catalog show. I want the knives too!:D My question is this though since there are 3 levels for the host...

Anyone know how I could set it up on my website when I don't know who the host will be? I want to do a cancer research type fundraiser or maybe several, each with a different person getting the host reward. Thanks in advance for any ideas.

I am having my Grand Opening this weekend as a Mystery Host show. How do I set it up online? First Name: Mystery Last Name: Host? Or do I have to wait and submit it with my winners of host and co-host?

I had two shows booked for this month and both have had to reschedule. I am not worried about later in the month, because I still have plenty of time to book that, but I really wanted to earn the bookings slide by submitting 2 shows by the 15th. I was planning on having an open house at my...

I am doing my first mystery host show this month, and I have a couple of questions to make sure everyone gets the benefits. I "think" I know how to enter into P3 but want to make sure I am doing this right I will enter myself in as the host and each of the others in as co-hosts and divide the...

Does anyone have a flyer ready yet for the Canadian version of the June mystery host

I posted these on CS and thought that I would cross post them here. I know that several people have had good luck with this in the past...

Has anyone done up any flyers for the June or July version of the Mystery host catalog show? I am not so good with flyers and would LOVE it if someone can post theirs! Thanks so much in advance!

Hello, I decided to host a mystery show since I wanted the HWC apron and now I think I'm in over my head.... I offered free shipping to the host or a $4.25 credit if it is shipped directly to them. Now the mystery host is a friend that does not live near me- her order needs to be shipped...
