I know what you mean! Some of the keys seem to be to contact people individually asking them to host. My blanket post did not get any takers. Successful people are posting recipes and tips daily to the "guests" and they're getting the hosts involved with posting. Some are messaging guests reminding them that the show is about to close. Guests are talking about their favorite products.
